Today my video is all about Tartan, Och Aye! But first, did you know
that this is part of a Hop celebrating a new release from Altenew and if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from AMBER’s fabulous Blog!
I have 4 cards and a video to share today starting with a little watercolor number using the Retro Plantines Stamp Set and some Watercolor Brush Markers.
I added a simple layered sentiment using the Hugs and Hello co-ordinating stamp and die set.
My next card uses Gradient Cardstock and the Parlor Palm Die Set with the Layered Floral Elements Die to create a bright floral ‘all over’ design.
The sentiment is heat embossed from the Retro Plantines set.
My most simple design is for a sympathy card and uses the fabulous Mod Vases Stamp Set and some leaves from the Vase Fillers Stamp Set.
Again I added a sentiment from the Hugs and Hello set but this time I heat embossed it on some Lagoon cardstock.
My final card and video uses one of my faves from the release (although seriously it is hard to choose a favourite) and it’s the Tartan background stamp set. It’s a builder and you can create any colour combo that you want!
I added a sentiment with the Bold Alphabet Dies and the Super Script Stamp Set, both classic Altenew in my book lol.
You can see the video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Therese, you always make me want IT ALL! but it’s clear I have a few favorites today, too!
Absolutely gorgeous creations, my friend!
=]
Love the Tartan set. Great for masculine cards!!!!
Love the tartan but the sympathy card blew me away. So crisp!
LLL
Great cards Therese. I thought of you as soon as I saw the Retro set. Knew you’d make a card. You’ve done a few with this theme in the past and I always love them. The tartan has to be my favourite though (so I’m glad you did the video), as a Scot now living south of the border, it tugs at my heartstrings â¤ï¸
Your inspiration makes me see several dies in the near future! Thank you!
Oh joy! Love all this and the inspiration for masculine cards. What a fantastic release!
This plaid die is so clever. I can see it being used for babies, hunters, fishers, Christmas, Easter and so many others. I would love to play with it.
I love the colours and the sentiment! Especially as yesterday was Robbie Burns day!!
Beautiful use of the tartan, love the ideas and inspiring designs!
Beautiful work. Thanks.
You’re amazing! I love all of these and especially the tartan! 🙂
Really pretty cards. Nice job!!
This is an awesome release and I totally love everything you’ve created with the new products! I also now have the bug to use those “seashore” colors in some projects. Love your designs and color schemes. Thanks for inspiring!!
Your cards are always so refreshing, Therese! And, I love the tartan plaid that you created on the video. Such a great masculine card.
I love that tartan background you created, love the colors you chose. That black and white hugs card is perfect too. It’s so hard to create those types of cards and you got it just right!
Love these cards. The tartan background is amazing!
Love your cards! I especially love your tartan plaid Masterpiece. I did have to look up the meaning of och aye, however.
Great cards! I especially love that tartan birthday card – so cute!
This is such a great release. I love all of your cards. thank you
Love the tartan background, perfect for the hard to make guy cards! Your other cards are all so different. I love the versatility of this release.
Great release and I love your inspiration cards. Thw Tartan set is my favorite followed by Hello and Hugs.
Hi Therese, I love the layering dies so it’s really a treat to see what you’ve created with them! I enjoy your bold cards and agree with you on the classic products!
Love the tartan, great release!
I adore your color palette on the Tartan Plaid! Wonderful creative cards with lots of inspiration!
Beautiful projects!
Of course I love the tartan, just in time for Burns Night (Saturday 25th January) would love to get this set
What a beautiful variety of cards! If I had to chose, the sympathy card is my favourite. I love the graphic, bold design with the pop of pretty blue.
Absolutely love the water coloring! So beautiful!
I love all of these cards! Such fantastic inspiration Therese! Thank you.
Your cards are always so beautiful and today is no exception. The first two hello cards are gorgeous and I love the tartan.
I already ordered the flower background! Can’t wait to recieve it. I would also like to get the tartan set and the incredible floral set. Another great release!
You nailed it again. Kudos to my favorite designer.
I like the simple cards and the tartan colors. I thought it was a name on the card, so now I know otherwise.
Wonderful release and wonderful presentations! I think I’ll be making ANOTHER big purchase from Altenew! (I should invest in them, I’d be making myself rich!) I think the tartan is going to be a favorite of mine, too.
I like those unique leaves and many of the other new products!
Great masculine card! Love the background.
Thanks so much for sharing…
What great cards! I enjoyed them.
Love all the cards, but the tartan best because plaids are definitely my favorite. This one looks very easy to use. But then you make everything look easy to turn out perfect cards.
The more of the Tartan Plaid I see the more I like it.
such pretty cards and colors
The Tartan Plaid is awesome, too.
Haha, your card with the Tartan is so awesome! It put a big smile on my face, thank you!
Lots of fun seeing you work
Love your cards

I love the tartan and the colors you used! Such a genius stamp set!
wonderful creations Therese, I agree it is really hard to pick a favorite product, I especially love all the dies, every single one is fabulous. Thanks for sharing!
That background tartan is quickly becoming a favourite of mine. Lovely works.
Oh how fun!! All your cards are beautiful but that tartan builder is awesome!!!!
Always love your cards! All are great, but the first is my favorite!
A great set of cards, Therese! I love the new tartan set- I know someone who would just love that card!! I might just try that idea!! Great video to show how easy it was to make!
So fun watching you make your favorite tartan. What a fabulous set and great ideas!
Such a wonderful, versatile release. Something for everyone.
I love your bold and clean designs for this release. The tartan plaid set looks like it will jump on to everyone’s wish list.
Therese, your tartan plaid tutorial was so enjoyable to watch. Love the colors. Thank you!
Lovely work as always! I’m still waiting for the gradient cardstock to be available, ugh! Thanks for the inspiration!
Your cards are always beautiful but the tartan is too much fun!
Love your color choices, especially with the Retro Plantines.
Such beautiful cards!
Therese, I love the Tartan card you’ve put together with the Scottish words on it. Super cute & great colours. This is one of my favourite releases yet. Thank you for the video as well.
Beautiful cards, love them all! My favorite is that awesome tartan card!
Och aye the noo, Therese, tha’s a braw card. IN fact all of the cards are nothing short of fabulous. I was thrilled to see you feature the Retro Plantines set (that one is calling my name). Thank you, for sharing your awesomeness.
beautiful cards, love the bold clean sympathy card, tartan card also, love the och aye – being a Aussie with Scottish heritage, definitely made me smile
A wealth of inspirations. I never even looked at the Tartan set, but now that I’ve seen it in action, it’s peaking my interest. That card is my favourite.
Wow, what a beautiful collection – Love them all, but I think that Retro Plantines card is my fave!!!
I didn’t think I needed the tartan plaid stamp until I watched your video; now I NEED it! Beautiful cards. I really love the one using the Layered Floral Elements dies. I have that set and I’m always excited to get new ideas for using it.
This tartan caught my eye right off. I was glad you used the plantine also. That has some awesome possibilities too! You’re the best…
So very pretty.
Really great cards!!
Such fabulous cards!! I really like the Mod Vases set.
Lovely set of cards!

Loving what you did with the Tartan Plaid —all examples are my favorite.

Beautiful cards, love ALL your cards and this entire release. The tartan plaid blue and gray color combo is so pretty, thanks for another awesome video.

Your clever cards never disappoint!
I love all your inspiration cards!! So beautiful and unique everytime! 🙂
Your creations are lovely! Can’t decide which is my favorite one!
Such great cards. The tartan is perfect – love the colour combo for a male! and the sympathy card is lovely (is it wrong to say sympathy is lovely?).

Very fun release…these dies are just wonderful and I love the tartan look of your last card.
