I'm featuring Studio Katia Lovely Blooms Stamp Set in this card. Click HERE for more details on the Studio Katia blog.



In my first New Year's card of this season, I featured Neat & Tangled, Altenew and Studio Katia products. Hope you head over to HERE for more details.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

To start off, I pulled out A2 sized scored card base and ink blended it with distress inks in rainbow colors using Stencil Blending Brushes. It turned out very soft and I really love the result.


Next, I die cut cover panel from white card stock using Altenew Watercolor Stripes Cover Die.


I stamped Scrapbook.com Exclusive DIY Coupons Designer Stamp Set images onto kraft paper in brown and cut them out using scissors. Little heart images are from Scrapbook.com Exclusive You and Me Quotes and Sayings Designer Stamp Set.

I then white heat embossed Scrapbook.com Exclusive You and Me Quotes and Sayings Designer Stamp Set onto black card stock and trimmed down as shown. There are lots of pretty sentiments in this stamp set and I think I'll use them again and again in my future projects.


I mounted coupons and sentiment panel using Double Sided Adhesive 1/4 with cover panel and added foam tape to each stripes for dimension.

To finish, I mounted cover panel onto ink blended card base and adhered some embellishments.

Hope you enjoyed this card. I'll be back with my second card for today!

Hello, crafty friends! Welcome to the Altenew December 2018 Stamp/Die/Paper Pack Release Blog Hop! You should have arrived here from Sandra Dietrich's blog, but if not, please check out full blog hop list at the bottom of this post. To celebrate Altenew's new release, I have 4 cards to share with you today. Here are what I came up with.


For my first card, I started by heat embossing flower images from Altenew Flower Vine Stamp Set using Altenew Rose Gold Embossing Powder onto A2 sized kraft card stock. I colored flowers with Prismacolor Colored Pencils.


I then lightly ink blended top-left and bottom-right of card using Victorian Velvet distress ink. I splattered same ink with water using paint brush here and there.


I die cut 'love' from white card stock two times using Atlenew Mega Love Die. I glued two pieces of die cuts and rubbed embossing ink pad directly with die cut. I sprinkled Altenew Rose Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it and mounted where I wanted it.

To finish, I stamped a sentiment from Altenew Mega Greetings 3 Stamp Set in brown.


I used a negative card stock from my first card as cover panel of my second card. I stamped flower images from Altenew Flower Vine Stamp Set in light grey using Altenew Morning Frost Crisp Dye Ink.


I heat embossed a sentiment from Altenew Flower Vine Stamp Set using Altenew Rose Gold Embossing Powder as shown.


I ink blended bristol paper using Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick distress oxide inks and covered it up with love panel. Then, I foam mounted whole panel onto beige card stock and embellished with Nuvo Crystal Drops Gloss Bubblegum Blush dots.


Next up is simple friendship card. First, I heat embossed one of Altenew Flower Vine Stamp Set images with metallic silver sparkle embossing powder onto vellum. I die cut it using Coordinating Die.


I die cut big sentiment from white card stock as well using Altenew Mega Friend Die two times. I glued them each other for dimension. I then took A2 sized bristol paper and ink blended it with Altenew Caribbean Sky. I splattered same ink with water and clean water and let it dried.


I mounted flower and sentiment die as shown in the picture and stamped a hello sentiment from Altenew Mega Greetings 3 Stamp Set in black.


For my last card, I created patterned background using Altenew Nature Snippets Stamp Set with various Altenew dye inks after I masked off the Altenew 2019 Stamp Set image.


Detailed inks are in the listed supplies below. After I finished stamp layering, I stamped single small stamps from same stamp set here and there as well.


To finish off, I colored 2019 using Copic markers.

That's all for today! Hope you enjoyed and got inspiration from these cards.

Hello, crafty friends! Welcome to the Altenew Crafty Friends Blog Hop Day 1! I'm so excited to be a part of this fun blog hop today. Hopefully you've arrived here from Lilith Eeckels 's blog and if you got lost your way, please check out full blog hop list at the bottom of this post.


Since I've joined crafty community on IG from 2015, I've met so many amazing & sweet crafty friends so far. This card is inspired by Maria Peters, one of those crafty friends. I'm a big fan of her watercoloring and unique style of card! I know many of you follow her IG already, but if not, click her name and look around her beautiful creations!


To start, I created galaxy background on cold pressed watercolor paper using Mijello Mission Gold watercolor paints and waterbrush. Once it dried, I splattered black and white inks from Altenew Jet Black Ink Spray and Pure White Ink Spray for more fun look.


Then, I stamped Altenew Hug Me Stamp Set image using Antique Linen distress ink on a piece of cold pressed watercolor paper. I watercolored it using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers with water and added details using Daniel Smith Watercolor Paints. I then die cut it using Coordinating Die.


I white heat embossed a sentiment from Altenew Happy Holidays Stamp Set onto a grey card stock and trimmed down into rectangle panel as shown.


After I foam mounted all elements of this card, I embellished with twin ribbon and polka dot embellishment.
