Altenew September 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series Release Blog Hop & Awesome Giveaway!

Hello, and welcome to my stop on the September 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series Blog Hop.  Be sure to keep reading until the end to hear about the awesome prizes and to leave a comment for another chance to win!

You should have arrived here from the blog of Agnieszka Malyszek.  If you would like to start at the beginning, you can head to the Altenew Blog, or check the list at the end of my post.

Before I get to my cards, be sure to check out the Marvelous Monthly Series!  Just click this image.

Or check out the Dynamic Duo: Wildflower Bouquet bundle here:

I have to say that I have become a huge fan of layering stencils and the beautiful Dynamic Duo: Wildflower Bouquet is now at the top of my favorites!  For my first card, I used cool, soothing colors that I feel worked well with the sentiment.

I used ink blending brushes to add various Distress Oxide inks through the Dynamic Duo: Wildflower Bouquet Layering Stencil Set.  These are the colors I used:  Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Uncharted Mariner, Mowed Lawn, Rustic Wilderness, Scattered Straw, and Shaded Lilac.  Altenew's blending brushes are so awesome to get the smooth blending!

The sentiment from the Dynamic Duo: Wildflower Bouquet Sentiment Stamp Set is stamped in a coordinating blue ink.  I just love the little :) that is part of the stamp!

I went with bright and vibrant colors for my next card.   Don't you think it makes the very same stencil look totally different?  I love the versatility!

This time I used several Crisp Dye inks to blend the colors through the Wildflower Bouquet Layering Stencil Set.  I used Fresh Leaf, Olive, Citrus Burst, Fresh Lemon, Pink Pearl, Coral Bliss, Purple Wine, Cosmic Berry, Volcano Lake, and Lagoon.

I die cut the florals with the coordinating Wildflower Bouquet Add-on Die Set.  I popped it up with foam tape onto a background I die cut with the Grid Cover Die.

This sentiment is also from the Wildflower Bouquet Sentiment Stamp set and is stamped with Obsidian ink and die cut with the coordinating die from the Add-on Set.

Thank you for stopping here along the hop!  Be sure to leave a comment before heading to the next stop!
