Altenew's A Year in Review IG Hop

Hello! Welcome back to my blog. I am so honored and delighted to be a part of this year's Altenew A Year in Review IG Hop. I added the link to the start of the IG hop and my IG below in case you want to join the hop which I highly encourage you to do. You don't only get inspired but you also have a chance to win a prize. 

Above are the cards that I  chose as my top most Altenew creations, three of which were created as part of my journey in AECP 2. You will learn more about what's special about each card below. I also included the link to the blog post of each card in case you are interested on the card details.

A Very White Card

Happy Birthday to You Stamp Set, Trebel Love Die Set

I love how this monochromatic card turned out. Using embossing powder added some texture to the card and prevent it from looking flat. My friend Janice loves this card so much that I gave it to her for her birthday this month.

Altenew Celebrating Parents Card

Sixties Sunshine, String Art Rectangles Die Set, Wild Hibiscus

I have lots of pens in my stash. Being able to use my pens on one of the cards above brought me joy since I am not limited to using my pens to writing only. Being able to stitch on a card also brings me joy since paper stitching is one of my favorite techniques.

Altenew March 2023 Release Card

Happy Blossoms Ensemble, Vertical Greetings, Wicker Texture 3D Embossing Folder

Being able to participate in Altenew's March 2023 Stamp/Die/Stencil & More Release Blog Hop is my biggest crafting career break this year. It was such a great experience. 

Dry Embossing with Stencil

Hello And Hugs, String Art Rectangles Die Set, Happy Blossoms Ensemble

I was only trying to create one card for the completion of my final course in AECP 3. The two cards on the back are happy accidents making me have 3 cards total using the same craft supplies.

6/2024: Altenew decided to change its affiliate program starting this month. Below is my affiliate link to the website. I don't think I can directly link the products I used with this new program. Please feel free to do a product search. I will update as I figure this out. The good thing about this new affiliate program is that I get to earn on each Altenew product you purchase and not only on the product/s I used on this project. As before, there will be no additional cost to you if you make a purchase. It is just a way to help a fellow crafter sustain her love for crafting. While in the Altenew blog, don't forget to check out their new release for this month. Thank you for your support!
