Hi everyone! It’s such an honor to be part of this blog hop. I truly enjoyed making these cards & project!
My hand is still recovering from surgery, so my instructions are brief. Thankfully I created the cards before my surgeries.
The first item is my project using the Antique Blossoms die and items from the Itty Bitty Branches dies.


To make this project:
- Decide which dies you want to use
- Create vase
- Add washi tape to ground the elements
- Add die cut pieces behind the vase
- Add to A2 size card stock
- Add sentiment
- Ta da all done 😃
This is also from the Itty Bitty Branches die set.

- Die cut branch pieces from Altenew’s Ocean Reflection Glitter and Forest Canopy Glitter cardstocks
- Add to card base
- Add sentiment
- Draw lines using Altenew’s Fine Liner pen set
- Add to card base and you’re done

This is the Chevron Background Hot Foil Plate.

To make this card:
- Use the Hot Foil plate to create the background
- Stamp the floral image from the CYL Fragrant Florals set, and fussy cut the portion of the image that you want
- Color the image using Altenew’s Artist Markers Cool Summer Nights set.
- Add sentiment from the Envelope Kiner Die set. Die cut it 3 times & stack it
- Use an Altenew Artist Marker to color 7 sequins and add to card front
Next up is the new Ultra Sticky Double-Sided Tape! I used the tape and the Lacey Doily Die for the card. It even works well with vellum! It comes in various sizes, but I used the 1/4” size for my card.


I used the Lacey Doily Die for this card, too.

To make this card:
- Use the die to cut 5 pieces.
- Arrange as in the pictures
- Add sentiment
- Trim to fit
- Add to black card base

Next up is another great Foil Plate: Vibrant Florals!


You can color the image using the Simple Coloring Stencil Set or using any other medium. For the first card, I used Altenew’s Metallic Watercolor set, and for the 2nd card, I used the stencil with Altenew Crisp Dye inks.


Lastly, we have the Wonderfully Made die. How to make this card will be in a separate blog. Stay tuned for more information. 😁
