Today I share 2 cards using the Altenew Creativity Kit – Sweet Story of Us. This is part of my Take 2 with Therese video series with Altenew and if you haven’t caught any of these videos before I have a link to my playlist with more inspiration HERE.
I was in a ‘watercoloury’ mood today and I used the Secret Garden ink colours to create my backgrounds and to paint my frame from the Sweet Friend Stamp Set.
I love that this die cuts right up to the edges of the image.
I also added a heat embossed sentiment on some Navy Cardstock.
My second design has the flowers stamped from the Story Of Us Stamp Set.
I added a heat embossed sentiment on some Jet Black Cardstock….. doncha just love this font!
I also added some of the Rock Collection Enamel Dots to both designs.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD on YouTube.

Lovely cards!! 🙂
Love both cards, especially the rose card. Thanks for pointing out how you decide where to put the enamel dots. That will help me.
Gorgeous cards Therese, very inspirational. I have both sets already. Loved them when I bought them but never got round to using them. Hubby’s away for the Weekend so I’m planning to indulge in a weekend of craft. Thank you for your really useful tips and amazing inspiration. Love that you left the flower white and weren’t tempted to colour it!😻
Beautiful cards Therese. I too cut out my bottom layers. It’s a waste of paper not to do that. I think so anyway!!
Beautiful cards! The blues are so pretty.
Love the cards, great kit too, and I rarely use blues, may have to change that!
Great kit, and love the cards you’ve made with it. The frame is gorgeous.
LOve the blue… yes. this is me. I know it’s not my color, but there’s something about these shades that I love … off to watch! xx
=]
I absolutely love the frame
Beautiful cards … that kit looks like fun
Lovely blues. Good idea to cut the centre of back panel out. Nice cards
Gorgeous cards. Love the blues (now do I have room for more inks? espcially now I’ve tried some Altenew inks 🙂 they cover really well for such little ink pads ) Love the font too.
You are not talking to right person if you are asking me if you ‘need’ more inks…. I think you already know my answer lol.
🙂
These are beautiful! I always enjoy seeing your creativity, Therese!
Oh wow, what a gorgeous color palette. Love the blues and that pop of green.
So soft and pretty, Therese … both of them … those blue hues are just gorgeous! Hugs, Anita 🙂
Really pretty….so much to do, so much to do!
Love your cards.
