Hello Everyone, and welcome back! It’s almost a new year, and a good time to look back over the last twelve months. One of the blessings I celebrate from the past year is my crafty relationship with Altenew. I have been a huge fan since I began crafting about the same time Altenew opened their business. So I was thrilled this year when Altenew asked me to guest design!
There are so many gorgeous stamp, die, and embossing folders that I love from Altenew, and it was very difficult to narrow it down to my top four favorite creations this year. However, this is my favorite! I used the Blooming Tulips and Sweet Gingko stamps and dies for this card. You can view the video tutorial HERE.
How pretty is this Artist Marker colored Paint A Flower Lotus Outline card? I adore the combination of turquoise, reds, and yellow in this one.
Altenew 3D embossing folders stole the show and my heart this year! I also tried the watercolor brush markers for the first time on this Spoon Daisy card. You can view the video tutorial HERE.
I know the new Craft Your Life Kit was a favorite with everyone, and the very first, Seasonal Blooms, was spectacular! This kit was full of goodies for non-stop crafting.
