Today is release day over at Altenew and once again you are going to love every single product! I’m really thrilled to join this release blog hop and share with you some projects and inspiration using some of the new products.
Make sure to read all the way through for all the giveaway details and of course visit the Altenew Card Blog and the Altenew Scrapbook Blog.
For this release I went all out and create a lot of different projects cause I loved all the stamp sets so much that I couldn’t decide which one to pick. One of my most favorites is the scrapbook layout I made using a combination of Block Alpha, Floral Art and the Mega Happy/You dies.
In addition to that I create a bunch of cards using different products and techniques.
For my first card I’m using the Hello Gorgeous stamp set which I colored using the new Altenew watercolor pan set. The sentiment I used is from the Smiles & Hugs stamp set.
In the next card I’m using the Mega Ampersand die as my focal point while playing with some ink blending on my background. The sentiment comes from the Mega Greetings 2 stamp set (which is a must-have from this release).
Now this card is one that I’m really proud about. It’s definitely on the more minimalistic side but I really love geometric designs. To create this I cut out square frames using the Halftone Squares Coordinating dies, I colored them with Altenew Crisp Dye Inks and stuck them together into this fun arrangement.
This card is actually a little 3×4 card I created to use in my pocket scrapbooking. I used the Block Print Stamp Set for the background and then I stamped the word “summer” from the For All Seasons set. You can totally turn this into a regular card by mounting it to a standard cardbase.
My last card is using the Wildflower Garden die. As I said before I love using coordinating dies without their stamp sets to make the most out of them. This time I created an ink blended panel, and then used the die to cut out a few images from the bottom portion of the card. Then I used the die-cut pieces and placed them at the top edge of my card to give it the impression of being framed by leaves. To finish it off, I stamped a sentiment using the Block Alpha stamp set.

Very nice cards. Thank you for creating and sharing.
Great cards it shows how talented you are
Great cards, and lovely, but striking layout.
Oh my…I’m in sensory overload. Everything is beautiful and amazing. Hello gorgeous is my favorite..what a fabulous saying …but everything in the release is out of this world…I can’t pick just one. You make it look like a snap…but your inspiration will forever help me. Hopefully helping me get inspired. Thank you so much for sharing your cards and page layout. Simply gorgeous.
Great projects!
You are right Zinia – you did go all out & it certainly shows how talented you are! I’d be hard pressed to pick a favourite as they all incorporate things I like so much in each of them. I’m happy to see a gladiola set as it is my birth month flower.
Wow, these are gorgeous! Love the coloring!
Love the colors and design of your layout. Stunning. TFS
You’ve used such beautiful colours on your layout and cards! Thanks for sharing your creativity.
I love all your projects. The colors are so vibrant. Thanks for the inspiration.
I can never decide what my favorites are, but I think this time it might be the block prints and the halftone stamp sets. I love a good pattern, and I feel like there are an infinite number of variations that I could use those for to make interesting backgrounds, which is something that I sometimes struggle with. I really love your scrapbook layout; it’s really nice to see how the large scripty sentiments and the letter stamps look in conjunction with each other. I’m surprised (but probably shouldn’t be) at how nicely they meld. Thanks so much for sharing with us!
Wow! What a variety of cards that are so eye-catching, and the scrapbook layout is terrific! You’re very talented! Thank you or sharing!!!
Wowsers!! Your designs and projects are AMAZZZZING!!! I had to go shop!!! Such a beautiful layout and wishing I had everything and your talent to make these!! Gorgeous designs and am really thinking about ordering in separate orders as not to cost too too much at a time! Great inspiration!!!!
Great cards and lots of them! Hard to pick a favorite. Thanks for all the great inspiration.
I love your cards but your Layout…Is AMAZING, love it!!
I love all of your projects and the colors that you used are beautiful! This new release it gorgeous!
Really fun cards!
