Happy Anniversary, Altenew!
Altenew is celebrating their 9th birthday and of course in typically Altenew style, they are sharing inspiration and a ton of giveaways. Make sure you visit the Altenew Card Blog for Special Offers and multiple inspirational hops. Don’t forget the Altenew YouTube channel, too, where there is a scavenger hunt going on right now!
I am sharing some of my favorite designs of the last year using some amazing Altenew products and one new card with a YouTube video.

In November, Altenew came out with the Trailblazing Fresh Dye inks release. I wanted to showcase these beautiful inks with a simple design.
The Majestic Bloom is stamped in the Woodland Escape inks which are a rich dark red color bundle. The leaves and part of the Trellis Stencil are stamped in the Frosted Foliage Fresh Dye Inks bundle. The sentiment and other part of the stenciled background are in the Blue Mountains Fresh Dye Ink bundle.
These inks feature a twist off circular pad and the colors are a dream to blend and stamp.
Another fun product that Altenew released even more of this year are hot foil plates and Brushed Metallic Cardstock. This card was made for the Blossoming Creativity Hop.
The Versatile Greetings hot foil and dies set really is amazing. I foil a bunch of these at a time and keep them in a container on my desk, ready to use at a moment’s notice.
The Geo Tiles cover die was cut out of Altenew’s Brushed Metallic Card Stock. There are four different colors of Brushed Metallic Card Stock: Silver, Antique Gold, Rose Gold and Copper and they are all beautiful.
These foiled tags add so much shine and are a favorite this year. Check out my video showing how I made these fabulous tags.
These Tiny Festive Pattern Hot Foil tags are another great addition by Altenew. Check out my YouTube video for how I made them.
The newest tool is the Stamp Wheel which I have been waiting for. The Stamp Wheel is Altenew’s stamp positioner and so much more. Join me on my newest YouTube series: A girl and her Stamp Wheel where I learn how to use the Stamp Wheel. Make sure you subscribe to be notified when new videos come out.
This card is a repeat stamping of sentiments from the Bold Sentiment Stamp set using an array of beautiful & bright Altenew Inks.
