Enjoy the fun hop! I know you will be inspired and amazed.
Lastly, I want to point out that Altenew has a SSS STAMPtember Exclusive.
Check out this "Be Leaf Me" ($15.99). LOVE.
I want to thank Altenew for inviting me and thank you for stopping by!
I have the pleasure of playing with Bamboo Rose Stamp and Coordinating Die. Normally, I do a lot of fussy cutting and don't mind doing it. But then....wow...you can just tell (from the following photos) how awesome it is to have the matching stamps and dies.
I made an You Tube video for this release and you can see the merits of having stamp and die combo. You can watch it here.
I am doing a personal GIVEAWAY for my You Tube Subscribers (details here).
It will be awesome if you become my subscribers if you have not signed up yet.
Hopefully when you watch it, you will able to see how the stamps and die combo set can work SEAMLESSLY together.
My first card prompted me to create this video. It's my "test" card.
I made the following card for the video.
If you like Clean and Simple, the next card took me just about 15 minutes to create.
There are just 3 steps involved: stamp the background, create a DIY butterfly chipboard with the matching dies and embellish with glitter paper and Liquid Pearl. Done.
PRIZES: To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to THREE lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew blog by Saturday, September 24, 11:59 pm EST for a chance to win. The winners will be announced on Sunday, September 25 on the Altenew blog.
AND that's not all, I will draw a winner to receive a $30 gift certificate to Altenew online store. All you need to do is leave a comment in this blog post by Sept. 22, 11:59pm EST. I will announce the lucky winner on Sept 23rd in this blog.
