Altenew 10th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 1 + Giveaway (over $3,500 in Total Prizes)

Happy 10th anniversary to Altenew!  I'm so happy to be a part of the Day 1 blog hop to celebrate their 10 years!  I have been an Altenew fan for many years and am thrilled that they continue to bring us beautiful products to create with.  And wow!  The prizes are fantastic, so keep reading for all of the details.

You should have arrived here from Virginia Lu's blog.  If you need to start at the beginning, head over to the Altenew blog.

My card was made with the gorgeous Bold Bouquet 3D embossing folder and the coordinating stencils.

After embossing 80# Neenah with the Bold Bouquet embossing folder, I used ink blending brushes to blend various shades of ink through each stencil layer.
 

I love how this turned out!  I added two mat layers behind the main panel and adhered them to an A2 card base.  The sentiment is from the Bold Bouquet stamp set and stamped in black pigment ink.

Altenew September 2023 Stamps, Dies, Stencil and More Release | Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in Total Prizes!)

Hello, and welcome to the Altenew September 2023 release blog hop!  I’m so thrilled to be joining in this hop filled with inspiration celebrating so many beautiful products on this release!

You should have arrived here from Michelle Burnier's amazing blog.  Your next stop is the awesome blog of Emily Midgett.  If you would like to start at the beginning, head over to Altenew’s blog.  I also have the complete hop list at the end.

____________________________________________________________

My first card features the beautiful Bold Bouquet Outline stamp, die set, and Simple Coloring Stencil set.

I colored the image using the Simple Coloring Stencil set and several Crisp Dye Inks.  I used these inks: Rouge, Crimson, Deep Iris, Midnight Violet, Firefly, Grass Field, Shadow Creek.

Black and metallic gold splatters were added before matting it with black cardstock and adhering it to an A2 card base.

My second card features the absolutely gorgeous Bold Bouquet 3D Embossing Folder!

The ombre teal background was inked first from Mountain Mist and Lagoon Crisp Dye inks and Concord and 9th's Tidepool ink.

I embossed the ombre panel with the Bold Bouquet 3D Embossing folder.  Then I used each of the Bold Bouquet Simple Coloring Stencils to add metallic gold pigment ink using an ink blending brush.  I love how the gold touches really make the embossed image pop!

The hot foiled sentiment is from the Essential Sentiments hot foil plate with gold hot foil.  I like that this includes several sentiments on one plate and that the coordinating Essential Sentiment die cuts them out all at once.
