Altenew Love & Friendship Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hi there! Today I’m joining Altenew for their Love & Friendship Blog Hop. If you are following the hop then you should have arrived here from the Altenew Card Blog.

Altenew-Tall Foliage, Tall Alpha Lowercase

Both of my cards feature the Tall Foliage stamp set as well as the Tall Alpha Lowercase stamp & die set. For this card I stamped the Tall Foliage images along the border of the card using Fresh Lemon, Sunkissed, Heart Beat, Pinkalicious and Lavender Fields. I used the Tall Alpha Lowercase die set with gold cardstock and embossed a coordinating sentiment from Tall Foliage. For embellishment I used Moonstones.

For this next card I stamped a single image from Tall Foliage with Aqualicious onto Audrey Blue cardsotck.

Altenew-Tall Foliage, Tall Alpha Lowercase

I embossed the sentiment in white onto various shades of solid colored cardstock using the Tall Alpha Lowercase stamp set and then used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I added a few strips of cardstock along the bottom to give it a little kick:)
