Today I am here to share the new release at Altenew! If you are hopping along you should have arrived from KRISTINA’s fabulous blog.
I have four cards and one video to share with you today. Starting with a bright Holiday Bow on a Cozy Flannel Cover Die background.
And then I got onto the Christmas Stockings… and I couldn’t stop lol. So there are two cards today (and even more tomorrow)!
The sentiment for this card comes from Holiday Script Words and the new stamp set Festive Poinsettia. Which is the focus for my final card and video.
Doncha just love this sentiment from the Starry Night Stamp Set!
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.

on your poinsettia card, I luv the added touch of some of the leaves hanging over the frame!
Beautiful poinsettia card! And the little stockings are so cute. Thanks for sharing so many cards!
So beautiful! Love the way you used the poinsettia die and the frame around it. Such great color combinations.
Wow! Your cards are beautiful! I love your choice of colors!
I like the different treatment for the poinsettias. Your card captures the greenish white poinsettias very well.
I love this release and have to have it all. The cards you have produced are very striking as usual with your use of the bright colour ways. But, what a contrast with the poinsettia. It’s so delicate and elegant. Thank you for sharing your inspirational creations with us.
Beautiful cards! Loved your video.
Thanks so much for sharing…
Your white poinsettia card is simply gorgeous! Thank you so much for the inspiration!
Love the use of the fluorescent green on the poinsettias! And the simplicity of the stockings card, so adorable

I love watching you watercolour. You make it seem less scary! Thanks!
Love the poinsettia! I must admit, I gasped when I saw the embossing color. Lol. Looks absolutely lovely though.
I also love to listen to you. You have a very soothing voice and style. Thanks so much.
Love them all, but I’m especially happy to see a fab use of the fluorescent green embossing powder!
Fabulous holiday cards!!
Thanks for sharing such wonderful cards – love the ideas:)
I have that fluorescent green embossing powder! Maybe it’s time to break it out again. Love the video and the colors you chose. Beautiful elegant card. Thanks so much for sharing.
I love the white colored poinsettias at Christmas time. Your card and coloring is perfect. The flowers look so real and life like! Thank you for sharing!

Gorgeous! I love the simplicity of your cards! The Believe with the stocking is my favorite!
Love these classic cards!!!
Wow, you have been very busy Therese. So many great cards to share. Love the stockings too.
Very pretty cards! I love the poinsettia with it’s vibrant green embossing powder! That’s what the white poinsettias look like! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wonderful cards! The poinsettia one is lovely. Thanks for the video.
Wonderful variety in your collection. I think they are all my favorites!
I love all the colors that poinsettias come in nowadays. The green ones you colored are gorgeous – I haven’t quite figured out how to color “white” yet. 🙂 Love the release, Altenew!
Super cute cards. I love those poinsettias, however.
So pretty. I always try to buy a red, pink & white one
each year, but it’s not easy to find all three colors.
Beautiful cards! I would have to say that my favorite one is the Poinsettia card! I really love the colors you chose for them! I like how you didn’t do the traditional red color for them!
Perfectly simple and poignant cards! Just love them. The poinsettia card is my favorite and love that you used green instead of the traditional red or pink! Fabulous job. Thanks for the chance to win.
Love your work!
Really nice card examples! Flowers are always my favorite.
Beautiful cards. Love the poinsettia as a favorite, though I gasped a little when I saw the neon green embossing powder! You made it work beautifully, however!
The inspiration cards are really, really gorgeous! I love the new release.
the Christmas stockings are darling but oh the poinsettia card is so gorgeous!!
All of them are so nice. I love both of the stocking cards the most.
The poinsettia card is my favorite. Great release.
Love what you’ve created! Fabulous work!
Love how you used my favorite…..Festive Poinsettia! Beautiful!
I love this background die! The pattern and texture are so fun! The stocking are adorable with all the different patterns you can stamp. Your poinsettia is lovely!
Oh my, that cozy flannel covered I is probably my favorite of all of the items in this release.
Love your style and amazing inspiration! This release is pretty wonderful!!!
I’m glad you used the cover all die. I was looking forward to seeing how this looked cut out.
You have simply outdone yourself here Therese! Wow. Fabulous cards and what an awesome release. Cannot wait for my order to arrive. I might actually get some cards done early! lol That would
be a pleasant surprise for everyone. Keep the ideas coming, we love them. Tx
Always love your colouring techniques and you did a beautiful job! Love it!
Lovely cards! I especially like the poinsetta card, so pretty 🙂
Hi there. Where in Australia do you live that you get green poinsettias? Never seen that before, and I have never heard of flower soft before. Is it like an embossing powder? But your cards are truly beautiful and once I stopped freaking out over the flouro green outline, I saw that it looked absolutely amazing and was my favourite card. Thanks for the inspiration.😘
I live near the Gold Coast so Poinsettias grow beautifully here and I have a few in my garden. There are heaps of different colours, white, pink,salmon… maybe I might colour a salmon one next! As for Flower Soft it is a product that has been around for years and can be sprinkled on wet glue so it kind of look like flowers (hence the name) Here’s a link https://www.card-making-magic.com/flowersoft.html I only have the red and the white (which I use for snow sometimes), but maybe some yellow would be handy for flower centres…. Thanks so much for your lovely comments and for visiting, Crafty hugs, Therese
Thank you Therese for the video of the poinsettia card, and the techniques shown on that card!
Wonderful variety. My fave is the one with the poinsettias.
Gorgeous cards! Any one of them would b a joy to receive!
Beautiful cards! I love the graphic pattern you created with the stockings.
Amazing variety of beautiful holiday cards! Thank you for the inspiration 💕
Awesome designs, I love the “Believe” card and those stockings LOL I love them.
I never would have thought to use fluorescent green embossing for this, but you totally made it work! I’m amazed, because I was very skeptical when you first started. But it’s incredible how realistic this looks! And the stockings are quite darling. I can see how you could get into a groove with them! Thanks for sharing with us!
Love those stockings!!
I love all this Christmas inspiration! Beautiful cards! I really love the bow set!
Love all the cards, put I am a poinsettia lover, so that card gets my vote. Love the colors you chose.
Very, very pretty! You guys are all so talented
Just love these cards! The clean and simple poinsettia card is so creative and lovely! And, I really love the Believe and stocking card- so creative! Love this new release by Altenew- thanks for sharing so many ideas!
Your card in the tutorial is gorgeous. I smiled when I saw the stocking cards. It looks like you had fun creating it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Gorgeous cards. I picked the first one as yours when the Altenew blog post came up in my feed – please take that as a compliment.:)
So many beautiful cards. Love this Christmas release from altenew.
Cheers
Lisa
Beautiful cards as always. Love the pointsettas.
Wonderful Cards. I love how your pointsettas peek out of the frame.
Therese: Love what you have done with the stocking stamp set and especially the holiday sentiments. So charming and heartfelt! I would be so pleased if my holiday cards came out as beautifully as yours look! Thank you for the inspiration.
Beautiful cards. I especially love the bow. It’s so detailed and realistic. TFS!
I wasn’t sure about the flourescent Embossing Powder, but you pulled it off in the end. Gold would be really pretty too. Great look with the dimensional frame.
A really fabulous collection of Christmas cards, Therese! Thanks so much for another great tutorial…your watercoloring is just beautiful!!!
All the cards are lovely. Clean, simple and stylish!
Lovely cards! I love the poinsettia. Beautiful
Such lovely cards.. love the stocking cards.. thank you for sharing.
I like all of your cards & am so taken with the framed poinsettia. It has an elegance to it. I wouldn’t have thought to emboss it with green embossing powder but what a great choice. It is ine of my favourite items in this release.
I would never have thought to use the fluo green embossing powder, but it WORKS!!
Wow!! Love how the bright green embossing powder turned out…you definitely nailed the look perfectly! Beautiful cards, very inspiring!
All wonderful cards but I’ve gotta say I’m finding the little stockings too irresistible. Tags, here I come.
I love your use of non-traditional colors for these cards. Lovely.
Wow! I love the detail in the Cozy Flannel Cover Die! Your cards all look amazing, and really have me feeling festive for the holidays!
Your cards are beautiful. I love your use of the dies and the watercoloring. Very nice!!
The holiday bow is my favorite and I love the colors you added on that card! Such pretty cards!
This is another wonderful release from Altenew with great variety, but I really love those Bountiful Branches and the Blessings stamp set. Your cards are gorgeous!
This release is jam packed with gorgeousness… Love the flannel cover plate and that wonderful poinsettia. I have some Flower Soft, it is such fun. Nicely done.
Couldn’t remember if I left a comment but I wanted to let you know that I really love that poinsettia card. Thanks for the video.
I love your bold and happy use of color.
Your use of these products is just amazing, love all these designs!
Beautiful card.
Such a beautiful, sophisticated Christmas card- I love it! These are the most realistic pointsettia stamps I’ve ever seen!
I love how the poinsettias almost pop out of the card!
Lovely cards! Love the colors and the designs.
Wonderful cards I really like how the cutting plate create such a wonderful contrast between the bow and the background.
These are wonderful! I especially love the first one – the coloring on the bow is just perfect, and love those watercolored poinsettias!
totally awesome Therese. The video is fabulous. Love the choice of the neon green EP and the paint colours.
Enjoyed seeing how those lovely poinsettia came together, Therese … that bow is gorgeous … and I love those bright stockings … so fun! Hugs, Anita 🙂
Cards that can be for the north or southern Hemispheres. Hooray.These cards are fantastic and love the poinsettia card.
Hiya, I was wondering if you saw my ‘Same but Different Christmas Cards Series’ from 2017. I had many designs which weren’t snow / cold related. I am not sure which style you like so here are some links
https://bit.ly/2p5z4St
https://bit.ly/2Om6jff
https://bit.ly/2OmYrdB
and the rest of the videos will be linked in my playlist at YouTube. I know you are not on your own with the snowy scene Christmas cards so it’s nice to have some other options. I decided years ago that some stamps and scenes were just too cute and in the end I caved and just go with it now lol. Thanks so much for your lovely visit, Crafty hugs, Therese
Love all of the cards!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful creations and video. I often forget that Poinsettias are not always red. I love that you use fluorescent green for heat embossing the outline. How brilliant!
I love how the stocking is hanging from the sentiment.
Fantastic cards! Beautiful clean designs. Love the colors of your poinsettia card.
Awesome cards as usual!! Love watching your videos!
Lovely cards! Very simple and clean, with a nice elegance. Thank you for sharing!
Such fabulous cards! Beautiful designs!
Your cards are really cool! 🙂
Lovely cards, great designs!
How lovely, Therese, to see ‘green’ poinsettia!
Absolutely fabulous release! Love the cover plate and poinsettia! Your cards are fabulous Therese! Thanks for the inspiration!
Great variation of the poinsettia. Thanks for the inspiration.
Very inspiring! Love the clean, bold colors.
Gorgeous cards! The green Poinsettia is especially amazing but I’m more likely to make the Bow card….quick and pretty! Thanks for showing ideas for all levels of cardmakers.
Beautiful cards. These blog hops are so helpful — when I first looked at the items in the release, I hardly noticed the Cozy Flannel Cover Die. After seeing your first card, I now know I NEED it!
the stocking cards are adorable!
The first card is so simple, but also so very awesome! I could made a huge stack of those in no time. And that’s just what I need to do. Thanks for the great idea. All of your cards are great and hope to see more.
the little package is darling. Fun die with a
pretty bow. Love the poinsettia garden.

Wanted to thank you so much for the comment you left about my ‘flower whale’ card, I really appreciate it and I’m so glad I finally got that image, as so many people haven’t seen it before and have fallen in love with it!! Your Altenew New Release cards are gorgeous as always, had to PIN that first card with the turquoise die-cutting and red bow…..its an amazing colour combo, not one I’ve thought of before but might have to borrow that idea for some of my own Xmas cards…..Mwah!!
The poinsettia card is beautiful. Love the design.
Hi Therese, WOW. Such BEAUTY!!! Love ALL of your cards, I think the first one is my favorite, It blew me away, it was so GORGEOUS!!!!! I love the colors you used, the bow looked so AWESOME against the colored checked background, really that was a BEAUTIFUL card, I HAVE to copy you on that, if I post it on IG ( if it comes out ok) I will give you credit for sure. I also loved the last one, the colors were awesome and I loved how they hung over. Thank you for an AMAZING post today !!!!!!
The stockings are adorable! Thank you for sharing.
The stocking are adorable. I love the poinsettia. The idea is so versatile and could be applied to other images as well.
Hi Therese! Altenew has another amazing release and your cards show them off sooooo well 🙂 I like your “Believe” and “Holiday Cheer” cards best this time around!
Your cards are beautiful! I really love the ‘Believe’ one. 🙂
You make the Poinsettia card look so easy to create. It’s elegant and unique (neon green embossing powder!!!) I love this card so much. Thank you for sharing it.
Beautiful release and gorgeous cards!
What wonderful cards!! The first card with the flannel cover die and the big red bow is so simple yet so fabulous. That cover die is a must have for me. Your stockings are so cute and the colours are so cheery. And then there’s that poinsettia card. Wow. So gorgeous!! The colour in the flowers is amazing and makes the flowers quite stunning. The frame around them is just perfect too. Such a lovely card!!
Beautiful cards.
Gorgeous poinsettias with the Green Fluorescent embossing powder!!! Great cheery sentiment too! Love the new release!!
I especially like how you framed the poinsettias so that parts of the flower were outside the frame…really popped!
Wow, the poinsettia with the green embossing blew me away!
Am I the only one who takes 15 mins to find the comments section….then I ask….how dumb can I be? And there is no acceptable answer to that one….lovely fun ideas. Thanks
All are gorgeous but those Poinsettias are my fave xx
Wonderful cards. I am new to Altenew but have become a super fan after viewing all the fabulous stamps & dies that are available. Love love love.
