Hello friends!
Warning: Super-heavy photo post
Yay, it's January Release Blog Hop from Altenew!
I am super excited to share 4 projects with you.
If you arrive from the blog of Seeka, you are in the right place!
All the details about this blog hop, please visit Altenew's Card Blog and Scrapbook Blog.
First up, let's start with something classy and elegant.
Featured products: Stain Glass Stamp and Fancy Frames Stamp & Die Bundle
I didn't expect these two sets work so well together, but they do!
The lace stamp is so intricate and gorgeous! The Stain Glass stamp set is very thoughtfully-designed.
Isn't the stain glass image amazing? I silver-embossed the outline 3 times. Therefore, you see the very prominent silver edges.
As for the frame, I stamped the delicate frame in Turquoise and then dry-embossed it with the die and tan embossing mat. This creates a very subtle letter press effect.
I also added a few droplets of Nuvo and sequins. VERY classy, huh?
Featured products: Floral Heart Frame Die
Isn't this die absolutely divine!?
I love stretching the use of dies. So like my previous project, I dry-embossed the heart (with the tan embossing mat) to add extra textures.
How does that piece of red-ish die cut come about? I sprayed Altenew's Ink Spray to create rich and vibrant paper. Once dry, I made the die cut and adhered it to the black card stock.
This design is fabulous for all occasions. All you need is to change up the sentiment.
Featured products: Radial Cover Die
This die is truly one of a kind. I can think of so many ways of using it....
Again, I started out by creating a colorful paper with Watercolor Brush Markers.
I then made the die cut and popped two gold hearts back in and one in the center.
It really is easy yet so effective! Altenew's Gold Foil Card stock is amazing. I highly recommend it.
The cover die is so neat that you can fit every piece back like a puzzle.
Speaking of puzzle, wouldn't it be cool to send the extra heart pieces along with the card, so the receiver will get to play with the puzzle?
Featured products: Wonderland Stamp Die and Mask Stencil Bundle
This is one amazing set. The stencil is so thin that it will not leave you a white edge while stamping.
This gorgeous set is a must-have if you love stamping techniques!
The masked stencil, die are amazing arsenal when creating intricate and detailed designs.
I started out in stamping the large bloom and colored it with Altenew Artist Markers (Set E).
With the positive mask, I covered the large flower and stamped the smaller flowers.
While doing that, I inked up the background with Citrus Lemon and Feeling Dotty Stencil.
I finished it off with the sentiment with Golden Edge Washi Tape.
What do you think? I love love this set and I hope that you do, too!
I also want to mention that if you love many items of this new release, you must check out my future posts! Here is what's coming up next.
I encourage that you become my blog followers as I do have regular giveaways

Your 1st card is my favorite-just lovely!
Wonderful release! I love the new radial hearts cover plate, but your first card is my favorite of your projects, Virginia!
Oh my but the red on black heart is stunning! All kinds of fabulous things to work with here but I do adore so many of yours today.
I absolutely love all of your cards. They are so intricate and fun. So many vibrant colors and styles. Wonderful creations!
Yes! I love all your cards. The Wonderland stamp set is hands down my favorite (I love watercoloring, so your card is wonderful), though your sneak peek from the Hibiscus 3D set is also among my top 5! The stained glass set is also high on my list, as is the Radial Hearts Cover die. There is a lot to love in this release!
Your cards look fabulous. Thanks for sharing.
I'm not sure what I love most about this release, the Wonderland stamp set is beautiful and your card is lovely Virginia! I also think the mini stamp sets are beautiful so they are already on my wish list.
The radiant Heart die is my favorite Virginia , great job !
Beautiful cards Virginia!
You have some real stunners that you've made with this release. All that dry embossing makes me swoon and I love the idea of sending the loose hearts from the cover die so the recipient can puzzle in the pieces. You're a genius. Just so you know, I've gone over to shop.
Every time I think I have enough flower stamp sets, along comes a release like this one! Thanks for your wonderful cards. I think the Garden Picks die set is my favorite.
Beautiful cards!! I love them all. Thank you for sharing, and inspiring!!
I am absolutely crazy about this stunning release! Love the beautiful flower stamp sets, and especially the Garden Picks 3D dies. The card inspiration is amazing!
Gorgeous projects!!! Love the Wonderland set!! Look forward to seeing what you created with the 3D Hibiscus!!
Fabulous cards - I love your Stained Glass card - love the silver embossing, it really gives that stained glass look with that bit of shine and dimension. But I also love the second card with the contrast of the red detail of the die cut on the black backgrouund - very dramatic!
Love how you did the extra embossing with the Stained Glass stamp
I really love how you colored the flower on the last card, so pretty.
Such beautiful cards!! Thank you for the inspiration.
Wow! They all looks so pretty. I love this release and what you have done here!
Beautiful work, Virginia! I love all the inspiration for this release.
Wonderful cards! My favorite and my favorite image in the release is the Wonderland stamp set, but I see the hibiscus 3D die cut peeking out of your upcoming post and that's a winner, too!
Really beautiful cards! I love them!
Love all your designs Virginia! It is hard to pick a favorite product or project as this hop has been full of amazing ideas. I must say my favorite is the radiating heart cover die and your last card! Thanks for the inspiration! Have a wonderful day!
Very pretty card samples today.....thank you so much for sharing them. Great new release!
These are ALL SOOOO GORGEOUS! My favorite is the radiating heart die! It's sooooo cool!
Very pretty cards--love what you have done with all the stamps and dies.
Nice, two in one on the first card. I would never thought of that. Thank you for sharing

I love all of your cards. The red on black valentine card is lovely, but I especially love the Wonderland card.
Your creations are stunning! But that Wonderland set... wow!
My favorite includes the Wonderland stamp set because that's my favorite from the whole release!
You've showcased some of the products from this mega release so wonderfully Virginia. I have to say the Wonderland stamp set, dies & Mask Stencil are my top picks & I really like the card you made with it.
Pretty cards
WOW amazing work. Love them
My fave is the black heart because of how you sprayed the overlay paper to get the color you wanted. I have never thought to spray a paper to change it's color. I've only thought of sprays for misting or droplets. It's such an obvious choice now that you've introduced it to me!
Beautiful cards love this release.
Always love your work, Virginia! Love those beautiful dies and flowers and your cards are beautiful.
Beautiful cards and
I love the Stained
Glass Window set!

These are all great cards. I like the simple method of using markers to colour your radial hearts cover. Can't wait to see the hibiscus 3D...my fav so far.
Awesome Release! Great projects, I especially love the pink on black Floral Heart Frame card!
How gorgeous are these?! Love them all, Virginia, although the last two must be my favourites, for sure! This release is yet again a great one (how do Altenew do it?!), but what stands out to me this time are the 3D dies - so cool and different, I love how these flowers just pop off the front card panels! I'll need to get my hands on a set or two!
My favorite is the red floral heart die. All your examples are gorgeous.
I adore your FUTURE post Virginia! Love hibiscus!!
I can see so many beautiful projects done with these sets! Your cards are beautiful as always. I simply love the new Altenew products! Thanks for the chance of winning.
Oh how I love that radial hearts cover plate - it's so cheery. What made me smile most in your post though, was the die cut heart and its exploding sequins!

Loving all your beautiful creations!
Your cards are so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing you talent with all of us. These blogs are so cool. I learn so much from them! Thanks Again!
You did an amazing job with the products you used. And I agree, the Fancy Frame and Stained Gluass do work very well together. And I love your idea of including the hearts from the Radial Heart Cover Die along with the card.... For a puzzle effect. I know my Great Niece would get a huge kick out of that. Thank you for the idea.

Wow, amazing cards. Gorgeous and wildly creative - simply fantastic!

The cards you have designed for the new release are so pretty, but the one which jumps out at me is the one with the Floral Heart frame die.

So many beautiful creations but my favorite is what you made using the Wonderland Stamp Set, Die and Mask Bundle. I love how you made the focal point flower in the front colorful and the ones in the background were just the outline.
