Altenew February 2020 Stamp/Die/Stencil/Cutting Mat/Artist Watercolor 24 Pan Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello friends!

Warning: Super-heavy photo post 

Yay, it's February Release Blog Hop from Altenew!
I am super excited to share some cards and home decor projects with you.
If you arrive from the fabulous Agnieszka Malyszek blog, you are in the right place!

 All the details about this blog hop, please visit Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog
All products are listed at the end of this post. Please use the links for your reference/shopping.

 Card #1 Feature products: Dotted Diamonds, Watercolor Blooms Stamp & Die Bundle


 First of all, the Dotted Diamonds is absolutely gorgeous!  If you look closely, the dots are various in the sizes! I stamped a few small flowers on top of the Dotted Diamonds.


I had fun stamping and die cutting the flowers. They may be tiny, but they were easy to stamp thanks to each flower's distinctive shapes.



Isn't this a happy bouquet? I also want to point out that the sentiment from Ornamental Bliss is very simple and modern. Love that!



Card #2 Feature products: Warm Hugs Stamp Set



 This may be just a One Layer, but it has colors, contrast and depth. 
If you love clean and simple design, this set is your answer!



I used one of the leaf images to stamp the yellow border.


 Card #3 Feature products: Alpaca Stamp & Die 
edited: The Alpaca was first stamped on pattern paper.
I then stamped the scarf in Ruffleberry, Sapphire and Snapdragon.


How cute are these three Amigos Alpacas!? Now Altenew is well-known for floral images, however, I am all for cute and fun images like this alpaca. I definitely hope that Altenew will come up with more stamp sets like this.

I will have ANOTHER alpaca card to share next. Be sure to check it out!

 Card #4 Feature products: Ornamental Bliss Stamp & Die Bundle


The Ornamental Bliss is simply like no other! The details of each layer is astonishing.
You can stamp it all OR you can also color them as you wish.

 I stamped all of the images in jewel tones and love how it turned out.
I decided to ink up the bottom part and positioned the image over.


Again, the simplicity of the font from Ornamental Bliss really elevates the design.

I added some silver strings and sequins for the embellishment. Hope you like what I created for this release. I will share many more cards with this release in the next few days. Please stay tuned.

Lastly, I want to point out Altenew's Cutting Mat.... it is the ultimate crafting surface! 

I love that there are grid on the mat and they are so soft to touch and yet tough to handle heavy use. 

If you are looking for a mat that are designed for cardmakers/scrapbookers, this is definitely one to consider!
