Altenew September 2022 Enchanted Winter Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

Hello, and thank you for joining me today. If you are following the blog hop, you should’ve begun at the Altenew Card Blog and arrived here from the awesome Lorena Brougher.

I must warn you…I got into my Rainbow Prism ink set from Altenew for this amazing release! This is probably my all-time favorite six-cube set that Altenew has ever made! This newly released Tulip stencil coordinates with the previously released Tulip 3D embossing folder. I die-cut Gold Foil card stock with the Fancy Thanks die to finish my card.

The Daisies stencil was another that coordinated with a previously released 3D embossing folder. I still had my Rainbow Prism on my desk and thought it would be very pretty! I added the Handwritten Hello die cut from Gold Foil cardstock to finish my card.

I loved this stencil so much that I created two different cards with it. This gorgeous Gentle Butterfly stencil coordinates with the previously released 3D embossing folder. I used Warm & Cozy with Espresso for the butterfly. The leaves were colored using Bamboo and Parrot inks from the Tropical Forest family. My sentiments came from the Block Sentiments stamp set and were heat embossed with Obsidian Pigment Ink and Crystal Clear embossing powder.

This card was created in my traditional portrait position. I used Warm & Cozy for my leaves and Sea Shore on my beautiful butterfly. Espresso was used again on the butterfly body. I also used another sentiment from the Block Sentiments stamp set. The sentiment was stamped with Obsidian Pigment ink and heat set with Crystal Clear embossing powder.

This is the new Poinsettia Cluster 3D embossing folder. The folder was used with Spicy Yogurt cardstock. I love the added texture you get with this amazing cardstock! I used my artist markers to color the image in Red Cosmos and Pocketful of Sunshine. To finish the panel, I added white splatters with Copic Opaque White. My sentiment is from Festive Tree. It was stamped with embossing ink and heat set with Antique Gold embossing powder.

These next two projects were created to share the excitement about the new enamel dots in the Altenew shop! I chose to use Red Sunset for this project. I used the Mega Hello die and cut it from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80# cardstock. I used the Red Sunset family to ink blend the phrase. For my background, I used the Angled Mosaic 3D embossing folder. Finally, I added three clusters of enamel dots in Blush.

I chose to work with Lapis Lazuli in Arctic for my second project with the enamel dots. I used the Layered Snowflakes 3D embossing folder with Neenah Classic Crest 80# cardstock. I added enamel dots in all three sizes to the center of my snowflakes. For my sentiment, I used the Winter Wishes set with Antique Gold Pigment Ink and Crystal Clear embossing powder. I trimmed my panel to 4 X 5.25 and added foam tape to the back before adding it to my card panel.
