Obviously I was ‘butterfly’ inspired today and layer stamping these beautiful butterflies from Altenew makes it so easy.
I did decide to film today as I created this card so that you could watch the process.

I’m so excited to be taking part in Altenew’s 2016 March release and blog hop, if you arrived here from Anna Kossakovskaya’s blog you are exactly where you should be. Today we will be releasing 2 4″x6″ stamp sets, 9 2″x3″ stamp sets, 21 dies, 6 papers, 12 inks, and a set of acrylic blocks.
My card today uses the butterfly image from Altenew’s Ori Kami stamp set and the exciting news is that now there are matching dies!
I decided to go for a watercolour look, firstly I stamped out and painted the butterflies, then I could easily die cut multiple butterflies from some stamp masking paper. Then I masked off each image and painted my watercolour around them, I really like the little border that it leaves behind when the mask is taken away.
Prizes:
To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away $50 gift certificate to three lucky winners. Please leave a comment on the Altenew blog for your chance to win! You have until Friday March 18th to leave your comments.
Also I will randomly choose a winner from the comments left on this post (only one per person) to win a $30 gift certificate to the Altenew online store, you have until midnight Friday March 18th (AEST) and I will announce the winner here on my blog.
As I am the last hop on the blog it’s back to Altenew so that you can leave your comment for your chance to win. Thanks so much for visiting and I hope you have had a blast on this hop!
Edited to add GIVEAWAY WINNER!

I had so much fun making this set of matching cards that I actually made a similar set at Christmas (with a video and you can find the link HERE). I’ve been wanting to challenge myself to this for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine and when I saw this collection (and it’s an Australian designer) I was sold. Isn’t it uber sweet. So enough talking because there is a mass of photos to follow! And NO stamping either….
thanks for visiting,

When the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine asked if I wanted to be part of a Stamper’s Challenge that involved me playing with Altenew’s Painted Butterflies I couldn’t reply ‘Yes’ quick enough lol. And I wasn’t disappointed, I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed getting all inky with these stamps, they are Brilliant!

Keeping it real simple for this month’s entry to Avery Elle’s Embossing challenge, in fact it’s just a little difficult to see the embossed part of my card, but it’s those fabulous double pierced rectangles that I can’t get enough of and I used one of these to create a subtle border for my scene.
