Hello inkers!
I'm thrilled to be taking part in Altenew's Year in Review: Crafters' Edition Blog Hop + Giveaway - you should have found your way here from Karen's blog.
As 2022 draws to a close it's a great time to look back at all those projects you've made throughout the year using Altenew stamps, dies and stencils. It gives you inspiration for future projects and reminds you of all those Altenew products in your stash waiting to get re-inked!
I've made quite a few projects this year using Altenew so it was quite hard to whittle it down to just 4:
Blissful Blossoms featured in a couple my favourites - the flowers are quite small so there's lots of different ways they can be arranged to give a different look each time. On the first card I arranged them around the
Mid-Century Frame Die. I love the sentiments in this set too - I'm very particular when it comes to fonts and I love the mix of the pretty script and the plainer serif.
I gave the flowers a miss for this little card and instead used the butterfly from
Ori Kami set against some
Leaf Clusters. I added a touch of embossed gold to the leaves using a tiny stamp from
Hennah Elements. I do love that a lot of Altenew sets come with smaller stamps so you can add some finer detail.
Prizes Galore
