Altenew Ambassador - Blue ornamental poppies

Today, I'm sharing a card I made using the Ornamental Poppies die set from Altenew. My favourite colour of all time is what I call Michelle Blue, and the closest ink or cardstock colour I've managed to find to this colour is Altenew's Azurite. And I think my favourite way to use Michelle Blue is to keep it simple - crisp blue and white.

50th wedding anniversary card

Today, I'm sharing a 50th anniversary card that I had to make at VERY short notice! The traditional gift for 50th wedding anniversary is gold, and I was going to use some gold glitter cardstock I have, but it just looked too yellow, so I went with Smoky Quartz glitter cardstock from Altenew.
