These new Cardstocks are not just for layering… Today I share 3 different ways to use them! But first, did you know
that this is part of a Hop celebrating the new release from Altenew and if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from NATHALIE’s fabulous Blog!
Starting with my ‘leftovers’ and and inlay die cut technique. This beautiful Layered Rose Die does have layers but I thought it would look pretty with the different colours inlaid instead.
This Cherry Blossom Gradient Cardstock Set would have to be my fave, just look at those pinks! I also decided to use the cardstock to create my own ombre striped background – stripes are so in right now, they are addictive!
My final design (and video) show how I created this ‘rose lace’ style card front and a sweet Mariposa layered butterfly. I used the Red Cosmos Gradient Cardstocks for the darkest colour to get some extra contrast in these cards.
I also added some sentiments to these designs from the Stone Mosaic Stamp Set which has some great fonts and fab sentiments!
You can see the video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

What a great idea!!!!!!!! It will help me a lot with the putting the dies together. GREAT!!
Oh I love these gorgeous cards! That ombre stripe background, layered rose ombre die cuts are fabulous and the first card with the ombre inlay is so pretty, love to get more cards out of those die cuts.
So lovely Therese! TFS
Both those cards are so beautiful – I love this new release and you made a couple of lovely examples of how to use these papers!
Beautiful cards and ideas and love the idea of the gradient card stock!
Both cards are beautiful! I especially love the more intricate die cut with the butterfly!
Love your cards today Therese. The colours are so rich they remind me of chocolate and cherries and Neapolitan ice cream. Yes, it’s tea time here, so that’s the way my mind is working. Both designs are beautiful and as usual, I’m inspired and my shopping list is to hand! The cardstock is fabulous and yet another “must have”. Thank you for another enjoyable and informative video. ❤️

Gorgeous! I have that same layered rose die but have never gotten it to look that good. Guess that cardstock will be finding it’s way into my shopping cart!
WOW your cards are beautiful!!! Your “Rose Lace” card is so delicate and could be used in so many ways!! Thank you for sharing
I love that you use the outlines of the flowers and leaves! Most folks would go for the bigger pieces. Really delicate and lovely.
Wow! I love the amazing inspiration! The new paper packs look terrific. I recently bought some 3D dies and these are perfect with them!
Oooh la la – LOVE these cards (second one is my fave) and love the idea of the text gradient combos!
I LOVE your videos. Your voice is so soothing. Love what you did with the flowers. Such a neat idea to make the background and snip those pieces away. Than to use those other insides to create such beautiful cards. Thanks for brightening my day!
Love the different looks you get. Great cards.
Lovely cards, especially the inlaid, striped one.
Love those pinks… beautifully done and the butterfly is a perfect addition. I also loved the inlay card. Nicely done.

As always amazing cards…….great paper packs…making the process of choosing papers so much easier

WOW! I love how you used the flower die and gorgeous colors!
BEAUTIFUL CARDS !!!!! You captured the essence of the Gradient paper in your work. I LOVE the way you used the brown with the pinks, Stunning, simply stunning !!!
stunning Therese. Your idea of using the outline to make your card front is inspiring. These gradient papers are amazing.
There’s nothing better after a long week to find a email with your latest cards.
Such beautiful cards and the inlay was just inspired.
These new card packs are amazing and I love the colours that you’ve used today.
The pinks are awesome!
I remember back when the mini blossom die cutting machine was released.
I ordered one because it was so sweet and new how great it would look on my desk.
Little did I know how much I’d use it. It’s an awesome tool and I’d be lost without it.
Thanks and cheers
Lisa
Sweet! That’s a great reason to buy anything, but then when it becomes practical as well, it’s ticks the best box, so glad you are using it, I love mine too, it’s just so handy! Thanks yet again for your lovely visit Lisa x
Gradient cardstocks make it so easy to color coordinate your projects and for die cutting! Love the size, too!! Beautiful projects!!
Gorgeous cards and gorgeous colors. The gradient cardstock is fantastic new product addition.
Oh so pretty!
Love your inlaid rose card! It is so elegant. Love the new gradient card stock colors.
Such pretty cards. Love that the color groups take the guess work out of the color combination which is a big help for me!
Lacey roses definitely make a beautiful card. Great job. Love your excitement about the gradient cardstock.
Really beautiful!!!! I love how you used the gradient cardstock in such creative ways!!! TFS
I love your cards, especially the inlaid flower. The gradient cardstock is really a great idea, making a complete look with dies, ink and cardstock.
Love them all!! My favorite one is the inlaid flower!!
Gorgeous cards!! I love the inlaid technique! 🙂
These papers! Oh My!! Very beautiful cards, Theresa!
Beautiful cards and gorgeous colour combos. These gradient card stocks are awesome.
Your patience is amazing. Inlaid rose!
Love the die cut gradient rose too.
Great card. Thanks for the video.
I love both you cards; but the one created in the video is my favorite.
so pretty
So pretty–pink and brown is one of my favorite color combos.
I loved the card that you used in the video! I cannot wait to get the gradient cardstock into my stash.Thank you for sharing your techniques with us!
These cards are so lovely. Such a great way to use these papers. Thanks for the inspiration.
Simply gorgeous!
My first thought when I saw these beautiful gradient papers was that would be so great for Altenew’s 3D dies (which I love). Now you’ve shown me other uses. I’m sold!
Wow. I always love your bold graphic designs. These remind me of Neopolitan ice cream! Yummy.
Love love what you created. Beautiful cards! I love the gorgeous colors! Inspiring!
The name Cherry Blossom is so fitting. It made me think of a chocolate bar I used to buy called Lowneys Cherry Blossom. It came in a box & was a milk chocolate mound, not a bar, with ground peanuts & it had a maraschino cherry in the centre. Talk about super sweet. I couldn’t eat one now. But I digress… Your card is beautiful using those yummy colours.
Your clever ideas of using the different shades in a new way.
Hi Therese 🙂 Your cards are terrific!!! Thanks so much for the different techniques! Thanks also for inspiring me 🙂
Beautiful cards…thanks for sharing…
Dreamy and delicate and oh so scrumptious, Therese … that lacy rose background is gorgeous! Love how you used the left overs on that lovely bloom against the stripes … so striking! Hugs, Anita 🙂
Beautiful cards! The inlaid rose is so beautiful. Colors are just amazing! Thanks for the inspiration!
