Video : Altenew Stamp/Die/Ink Release Blog Hop & Giveaway!

Oh Yay, it’s time, Altenew have released some new wonderful stamps, dies and yes three new ink sets and I am so happy because they are bright, and you know how much I love bright!  We are all hopping along to celebrate and you should have arrived here from FLORA’s fabulous blog.

I made a total of three cards today, so scroll down to see them and the video that I have made showcasing the fab new Layered Kaleidoscope Cover Die as well as to find out how you can WIN!

I started the day by playing with the new ink colours and the Balloon Baby stamp set, and with my Misti’s help I had the colours added in no time at all.

I added some clouds from the Be a Lighthouse and a Faux veneer speech bubble with a cute little sentiment from Handmade Tags.Altenew - Baby Balloon - Handmade Tags - Be a Lighthouse - Wood Veneer - Lostinpaper (card) 1 copy

I went a little artsy with the Altenew shimmer sprays on my card panel before die cutting this fab leafy garland which I popped up on some green fun foam.

My final card is quite bright and busy but I had a ball creating it.  I used the Layered Kaleidoscope Cover Die A along with some great Altenew cardstocks.

  5. Such lovely cards. I always enjoy visiting your blog and especially how inventive you are with Altenew products.

  6. I like how the one balloon rises above the others. The balloons would be a great birthday card. Your use of enamel dots enhances the shimmer sprays.

  7. All three of your cards are so different from each other but they are all amazing! I think Baby Balloons is my favorite. I love how you can stamp the colors in place and then could go back and add details if you wanted. Although, your card looks perfect just like it is, which is also a major bonus for that set! 🙂

  13. I love your videos and card designs! The extra time was well worth it with the inlaid technique, you have such an eye for color and detail and I like that certain techniques take centre stage without too many other things to distract in the whole design! Well done, Therese!

  14. All of these cards are fabulous, but the last one is my FAVE!!! That bright background with those beautiful blue pansies is gorgeous. Thanks so much for this inspiration!!!

  61. Hi Therese, Love the inlay of the card and those flower look so pretty on top, TFS, Cheers Anna.

  62. Oh my gosh you made some beautiful cards! I love to see how creative people get on these blog hops and boy did you!
    I love that yellow is one of Altenew’s new ink pad colors. It’s my favorite color and boy did you use it on those balloons. I love that card because it’s so colorful and because I love hot air balloons. We just went to a hot air balloon fest but because it was so windy that day we didn’t get to see any go off. Darn!
    I love all the splatters on your second card. I used to make splatter paintings in my art class in high school and they were so much fun to do. I love yours a lot.
    Your last card is so amazing I am drooling! LOL I love pansy’s and I had some beautiful ones growing from seeds 2 years ago. Last year I planted them again but those mutant ninja squirrels dug them up before they came up and really made a mess. I didn’t plant any this year. If I had your pansy card those squirrels couldn’t dig them up. You’re coloring is amazing and I love that bright background. That’s exactly the way I would do it. Me and colors, we just go along.
    Thanks for showing us your pretty and colorful cards and for giving us the chance to win something. I can’t wait to see what everyone else did on the hop.

  63. Love your three cards nice colors pansies are my favorite. Hot air balloons are great.

  64. Your cards are all beautiful! I’m glad you showed the pansy stamping in the video. I have struggled in the past with some layering flowers but this one looks pretty easy! Thanks

  65. Beautiful cards, and beautiful release! I especially love the totally tropical set and the pansies.

  66. I love how clean and simple these cards are yet still have a high impact! So lovely!

  67. I am so happy to hear of your recent conversion and obsession with blues! It’s my ‘go to’ choice which I have to curb. Your pansies are beautiful, as is the finished project. Thank you.

  68. Love the balloons and how you used the clear bright colours but the pansies are a must have. Seeing the video how easy with the picking up tool to make a lovely background and your use of colour- perfection.

  69. Beautiful cards Therese and thanks for the tip of using the adhesive sheet–I would be fun to cut this out of many different colored papers and making a bunch of cards with rainbow type backgrounds. This release is awesome!

  70. The Pansies are starting to grow on me as a favorite from this release. I, personally, am really loving the new yellow inks. Thanks for sharing.

  71. I love the hot air balloon card, and have never noticed the clouds in the lighthouse set… until now. Your last card is definitely BRIGHT!

  72. Have already placed my order but unfortunately missed out on the pansy set. After seeing your card I think a “back in stock ” email is in order. Thanks, as always, for your wonderful cards.

  73. Love all your cards, these are really special! I really like the hugs card with the white on white die cut!

  74. Stunning selection of cards. Love the color chosen for the background with the pansies.

  75. All three cards are stunning, I love the brightness of the balloons and I just adore the blue pansy’s and the background. Thanks for sharing

  76. Fantastic cards! I also am excited by these beautiful new inks because they’re nice and bright! This new release will definitely create problems for my monthly crafting budget! I’m only sure what to pick first! Thanks for sharing your creativity¡

  77. Three wonderful cards. All different in theme and color palette/hue. What a creative mind you have and what a wonderful release this is to offer all these great ideas. Thank you.

  78. All three of your cards are gorgeous Therese! The orange and grey background that you inlaid from the die cuts looks so amazing and it really makes the blues in the pansies pop. I think the second card you created with the Altenew Shimmer Sprays is gorgeous, I love the artsy feel of it. Thank you for a great video tutorial and all of the fantastic inspiration.

  79. The leafy garland card is fantastic! I love the splatters and the hugs die. The other cards are great, too.

  80. Wonderful designs as always, I did not think I needed the kaleidoscope cover plate, but after seeing your project is going on my wish list😍 Thanks for the inspiration Therese!
