Hi there! Today I’m honored to be joining Altenew for their March Release Blog Hop. You can check out the new release HERE!
For my first card I created a wreath using a stamp from the new Wildflower Doodles stamp set. I’ve lost count how many wreaths I’ve made lately, but there’s so many gorgeous, leafy sets coming out lately that I can’t resist!
For the sentiment on the wreath I used the new Line Art set and embellished the wreath using Pinkfresh jewels.
This next card uses the Fabulous Florets stamp set and for the sentiment used the Bold Caps Alpha dies.
My third card features the Line Art stamp set and for the sentiment I used the Flower Arrangement set.
Here’s a video to show you how I created these cards.
Prizes:

March 17, 2020 at 3:30 pmThese are bright and cheerful as is the video. It ‘s a gray day here weather wise as well as otherwise with all that’s going on, and your fun video made me grin! π I know about that chocolate you mentioned because my son-in-law ‘s Mother was German and my daughter brings me some when they go to visit his cousins and other family members. I’m trying to narrow down my wish list from this release and I do like the stamps sets you used because I think they would be so versatile. Thanks!

March 17, 2020 at 8:14 pmThanks for the awesome video Laura–lovely cards, love the new release from Altenew. I used to love Rittesport chocolate, learned about it the first time I traveled to Germany. I can no longer eat it, not gluten free. Bummer, but I remember how good it was. Eat some for me, ok? If you do it for someone else, the calories don’t count!

March 18, 2020 at 4:38 amI feel like we are sisters at heart. Your video brought smiles to my face. You talked about mint chocolates. I just ate some a few hours earlier today lol. I had cleaned out my purse and found a few that I had brought home from Olive Garden. And I’m work you. You can never have too much bling. Your cards are lovely. That mint color is wonderful. I’m going to have to get that. I agree that Altenew had some of the best inks.

March 19, 2020 at 8:24 pmHi Laura, I’m a totally fan of yours and I adore your last video, as all the videos you post, talking about chocolate, I share your love for dark chocolate, I live in Ecuador and I know Ritter Sport german chocolate, but the one with mint does not arrive to here, it sounds good, my favorite is dark chocolate with hazelnuts.
Cyndi Morris
March 19, 2020 at 8:33 pmYou certainly didn’t “lose” me during your video — I could listen to you all day. In fact, it would be a welcome distraction from all the unsettling things happening. Your cards are wonderful. You always make me want to go to my craft room and “play.” That’s about the only thing that takes my mind off my fears and brings me joy. Thank you for being you.
