Altenew April 2019 Washi Tape/Embossing Paste Release Blog Hop & Giveaway + Video!

Today I share 2 cards using the beautiful new Washi tapes and Embossing Paste from Altenew, this post is part of a new release and if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from NICOLE’s amazing Blog!

My first card uses the Teal Shadow Washi Tape and I wanted to create a matching Embossing paste so I added some Sea Glass Dye Ink and it mixed beautifully!

Altenew - Adore You - Teal Shadow Washi - Molded Lines Stencil - Therese Calvird (card) 1 copy

I used the Molded Lines Stencil, and then popped up some flowers from the Adore You Stamp Set.  The sentiment and hearts are from the Sweet Hearts Adhesive Wood Veneers.

For my second design I added the Embossing Paste directly to the card front with the Beveled Squares Stencil.

Then I used the Gold String Washi inside the card.  Both the flower and the sentiment are from the Engraved Flowers Stamp Set.

  1. Therese, there is no end to your creative imagination! I NEVER would have thought of a way to combine these two products – you’ve done so beautifully!
    =]

  2. You have made really beautiful cards using the new Washi tapes and embossing paste. They are really gorgeous. Wonderful inspiration as usual. Thank you.

  3. I have always loved your creativity. And I have previously bought the washi tape. It is so beautiful. But I have a problem getting the roll of tape started without it ripping off in little pieces as I get it to unroll. Do you have any suggestions?

    1. ooh, I think the trick is to go ‘slow’ and work all the way down the edge until it’s all free and then pull the tape back. Hope this is helpful, Crafty hugs, Therese

  4. Beautiful card! I love all the texture and the way you cut the cardstock at an angle- adds so much interest!

  5. At first glance I did not realize you had cut away a portion of the front of the second card. What a great idea. Both cards are fabulous. I NEED these new washi tapes. TFS

  6. Therese, I love your second card. It is so divine as if it is for a woman of the moment! Perfect for weddings, I believe. Too beautiful for Just Because card, in my opinion. Thank you for inspiration. Keep inspiring us, grasshoppers! 🙂

  7. Both cards are beautiful, and I love the design of the second card. Don’t you just love those watercolors from Altenew? I’ve resisted the wide Washi tapes from Altenew thus far, but I think with these I’m going to have to order some. 🙂
