It’s time for another wonderful Altenew release and today we have soooo much to share! If you are hopping along to celebrate you should have arrived here from SANDRA’s wonderful blog!
Today I focused on the new embossing powders (but here is also an amazing new Scrapbook Collection!) that is now available and a fun technique where I embossed onto coloured cardstock, it gives a different and often fun look! I have a video showing the process, you can scroll down for that as well as to find out how you can WIN!
My first card is a bright one, how cool does the Razzleberry Crisp Embossing Powder look on the Autumn Blaze Cardstock!
I added a spray of Doodle Blooms a snail from Garden Grow (the bird just didn’t feel like as much fun although that was where I was originally heading) and a Speech Bubbles sentiment die cut with the coordinating dies.
I had a whole other vision for this card until I saw what the Caribbean Sky Crisp Embossing Powder looked like on the Turquoise Cardstock…
To me it looked so much like ‘bubbles’ that I couldn’t resist keeping it CAS and adding a die cut girl and sentiment from Let the Wind Carry You.
I created a video for my final card and adore the look of the Platinum Crisp Embossing Powder on the Real Gray Cardstock.
So that meant that I just had to use the flowers from the Adore You Stamp Set, I also added a sentiment from the Script Words Die Set and some Sultana sprinkles and called it done.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.

Oh how pretty. Colors of the rainbow continue.
I love the texture that background embossing gives… the bubbles are awesome.
Such pretty cards. Especially the soft grey one. So elegant.
Oh my goodness, such beautiful fun projects! I love the colors on the first two cards and the neutrals of the third card! All so great!
Beautiful Therese. Thanks for sharing!
I love your card! So pretty!
You always creat the most stunning cards. I love love the way you use different colors together and your layouts is always so pretty.
Fabulous designs Therese! Love them all!!I also LOVE the playfulness and the cheery colors of this collection, it is a must have! Thanks for the inspiration! Have a wonderful day!
Wonderful cards. Love the flowers and the background stamp. Thanks for sharing …..
Beautiful color combos, Therese! Love the elegant flower one you did in your video; so elegant.
WOW! LOVE your cards! Thank you for showing us a few examples of what these embossing powders look like on different color cardstock. I also like how you used the background stamp in different “feels” from playful to elegant.
Fabulous card Therese and thank your the video. Beautiful powders, I’m glad you showed some of them off 🙂
Fabulous color combos, especially the Platinum and Gray…So elegant! Thanks so much for the video, and for a chance to win!
Just beautiful. Thank you for all your ideas.
great cards!!
here I am having the same issues too…taking up the most time in making my cards is deciding where everything is going to be..and which paper as background..can take ages!!!
Also just love to look at my design papers…is so much fun!!
What fun! I love the razzleberry on orange, but the platinum really has my heart. I will have to have all the colors of embossing powder…
Beautiful cards – I absolutely love the hugs with card with the Platinum embossing powder with the gray card stock…..Stunning! That background looks great on all the cards with those beautiful new embossing powders. Thanks for the inspiration!
I like the platinum on grey card the most but they are all lovely.
Such wonderful cards! All three different but amazing!
Beautiful cards – I especially one the one you used the platinum embossing powder on, that one is just gorgeous!
Pretty! I always wondered why people didn’t use colored paper as the base. This would work!!
Love these cards. The backgrounds are spectacular. Thanks for the reminder to use EP with my background stamps. So many techniques and not enough brain space! LOL
I adore the second card with the bubbles! Also love the elegance of your third card. This release is great for both scrapbooking & card making.
All gorgeous, but you know where my heart leads me, right? Off to watch!!…
=]
love the orange and purple!
Beautiful cards, I love Altenew floral stamps!
I love the grays and platinum in your card but also love the bubble girl card and the first riotous card. All excellent!
Therese, I so enjoy your creativity, great cards as always!
Adore this new Altenew release and all your cards are gorgeous. Thanks for the video showing your process using these wonderful new powders.
Really love the pattern play circle backgrounds.
Not only are all three of your cards just beautiful.. I thought the second one was really very clever too… Fabulous use of the sentiment with that embossed background ❤😍
Love these new embossing powders and what you created with them. You’re the best! Love your videos! Love your voice! Love all the great tips you share.
Very pretty cards love the colors! Thanks for sharing!
I love the new intense bold embossing colors. Can’t wait to get them. Your flower card is so classy, it is so eye appealing. Great job.
I like that you used the same stamp background on 3 different cards, showing the versatility of this product. Your cards are lovely!
Lovely cards, especially the bubbles card!
Lots of beautiful and different cards. Thanks for the inspiration!
Your cards are awesome! I love them!
The blue on blue with silhouette is stunning. Tfs
Very pretty, creative cards!
I love the colored embossing!!
All three are wonderful, Therese, but it’s the Adore You one that I’m pinning. I need to start making lovely backgrounds for my flowers and other images.
Beautiful, as always! TFS 😉
The first two are fun, but the gray is my favorite. The Adore You set is lovely and you make coloring look so easy!
Another fabulous collection and wonderful cards!
Love your card and love this stampset too. Beautiful card..
LOVE how you used the embossing powders – with unique color combinations. I often get “stuck” using the same colors, etc & it help tremendously to see other options. Also, it makes it SO difficult not to order all the new embossing powders! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Always inspired by your card-making. Ready to fire up my heat gun.
These are all very pretty, so glad they have new embossing colors right as I am starting my Holiday crafting and I feel like non-traditional this year so they are perfect. Thanks for another great video, I always like watching them😊! Your grey card turned out fabulous, oh and I love the bubbles idea you had too!!💖AND the Razzleberry on orange is great too.
Fantastic cards! I am SO excited about these embossing powders, they look amazing!
Beautiful cards! Love your color choices!
Therese, these are beautiful cards. I watched the video first and loved the elegant card with the platinum embossing on the gray card stock — gorgeous. But I also like these other cards. I love the bubbles one — so simple, but so fun. Great sentiment, too. Thanks for all you share.

Always, always, always love your ideas.
Fabulous ideas and techniques always seem to be here on your blog. Love your cards and this background technique using the colored card stock. Like you, I tend to collect patterned papers to look at (Lol!) and also, card stock in every color! My friend had the best comment! She said, “What! You mean I’m supposed to use this!” 🙂
Sweet cards!! Thanks for sharing.

I love the bubbles and the different cards you created from this fun stamp.
I loved the hot pink color on the bright orange and then I kept scrolling. (Isn’t is sad how my fickle heart can change in a second!) The bubbles card and sentiment totally stole my heart! Of course I knew you could use embossing powder on colored cardstock…I just never actually thought to try it…now I have something else to do today besides cooking and cleaning! Thanks.

I am in love with those circles! I don’t know why but my favorite shape is a circle. There is a song that says “The world is a circle without a beginning and nobody knows where the circle ends”. They look so good as the background for all 3 cards. I love the girl blowing the bubbles. That is so cute! That little snail and the flowers are also so cute! I love cute cards but then I also love the white and gold and brown card because it looks so elegant. I am in love with the new embossing powders and when I win, that is what I want to get, some new embossing powders. Thanks for showing us you’re amazing cards and for giving us the chance to win something. I hope I win!
