Altenew March 2020 Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hi there! Today I’m honored to be joining Altenew for their March Release Blog Hop. You can check out the new release HERE!

Altenew-Wildflower Doodles, Line Art

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!

Altenew-Wildflower Doodles, Line Art

For the sentiment on the wreath I used the new Line Art set and embellished the wreath using Pinkfresh jewels.

Altenew-Fabulous Florets, Bold Caps Alpha dies

This next card uses the Fabulous Florets stamp set and for the sentiment used the Bold Caps Alpha dies.

Altenew-Line Art, Flower Arrangement

My third card features the Line Art stamp set and for the sentiment I used the Flower Arrangement set.

    These 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! πŸ™‚ 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!

    I 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.
