Hello friends! The Altenew July 2026 release is available now! Today I'm sharing this holiday card that features three of the awesome new sets:
- Lush Botanicals: Poinsettia 3D Embossing Folder and Die Set
- Winterberry Poinsettias 3D Embossing Folder
- Holiday Essentials Die Set
I started with the Lush Botanicals: Poinsettia 3D Embossing Folder and Die Set. This beautiful embossing folder has coordinating dies that you use to die cut the petals of the poinsettia. I did that first by die cutting some Heart Beat and Forest Glades cardstock. I die cut the flower center from some Brushed Gold cardstock. I added a few inks (in the list below) with Mini Blending brushes to give the petals some depth and dimension.
Next I placed the die cut petals into the Poinsettia 3D embossing folder and ran it through my die cutting machine. I used glue to adhere the layers together. (This die set has Altenew's ingenious Key Hole system which makes aligning the layers so very easy!). Then I added white paint splatters for a snowy look!
I glued the poinsettia to a white cardstock panel that I embossed with the Winterberry Poinsettias 3D embossing folder.
The sentiment is from the new Holiday Essentials die set. I die cut the top layer three times and glued the layers together. I adhered that to the bottom shadow layer that I die cut from Heart Beat cardstock. Then I added foam adhesive to the back to pop it up on the card.
I added a few gold sparkles from the Metallic Gold & Silver Gem Sparkles set.
