Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Lily Release Blog Hop & Giveaway + Video!

There is a new kid on the block and if you have been here before you may already know that I am a HUGE fan of Altenew’s 3D flower dies (I even have an Altenew Academy Class featuring them HERE).

Now it’s time to announce a new monthly release of the Craft-A-Flower and the first one is a beaut, it’s the Lily. We are hopping along to celebrate the release so you should have arrived here from the AMBER’s amazing Blog!

  19. You always make such beautiful cards! And this one is no exception. Thank you for the inspiration. Usually I like Altenew’s layering flowers (the stamped ones as well as those that are die-cut), but this one is not as nice as the stamped lily is. Looking forward to see what they’ll create in June.
