Altenew Ambassador - Flourishing Bouquet with Metallic Watercolours

And I made a video!

Hot pink Anemone - Altenew Ambassador

Today, I'm sharing a card that came about one Sunday afternoon after watching a gardening show! It was Monty Don showing a whole lot of British gardens, and one of them had a bunch of hot pink anemones, and I thought, "I can put them on a card!" So I did!

Thanks for visiting :) 

 

 

With deepest sympathy

Sympathy cards - we always need them, but never like making them. I like to keep mine simple if I can - monochrome, with white space. I masked the edges to keep it one-layer, then used stamps from Concord & 9th and a stencil from Altenew, with Distress oxide ink and some white embossing.

Leaning Lily: Altenew Ambassador

Today, I'm sharing a card I made using the Leaning Lily outline stamp set from Altenew. I added a stenciled background using the Deco Diamonds Builder stencil. I'm kind of proud of myself - I used purple and orange in the same card that's not a rainbow! LOL!

Altenew July release blog hop and Giveaway!

 

Today, I'm taking part in a blog hop to celebrate the July release from Altenew. This release includes some really gorgeous Christmas products, and I was so happy to see multiple poinsettia products! You can find the release HERE!

I created this card using the Lush Botanicals - Poinsettia products, which include layering dies and a coordinating embossing folder to create some amazing texture. I thought it would be fun to add some glittery leaves behind the red poinsettia. I also used the new Holiday Essentials sentiment dies, and the Paper Echoes stencil. 

And I made a video!
