Altenew April 2018 Stamp/Die Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

2018/04/16


Hi Ladies! Welcome at Altenew April 2018 Stamp/Die Release Blog Hop. Special welcome if you came from Jennifer McGuire blog. YAY! How do you like to new Altenew products? I am in love with all, but my favorites are Mega GreetingsWatercolor Dots and Happy Heart Stamp Sets. I created with them a 12x12 scrapbook layout. I hope you will like it!


I decided to make an ombre layout , so first I stamped hello words with Mega Greetings Stamp Set. I used Deep Iris and Lavender Fields Inks from Shades of Purple Set. The second title was made with Coral Berry and Coral Bliss Inks from Red Cosmos and Tea Party Sets. For the last one I used Pink Pearl and Peach Perfect from Tea Party and Four Scoops Sets. The effect is just stunning. I cut out the hello titles with Mega Hello Die and Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine


I stamped on white cardstock flowers from Happy Heart Stamp Set using Jet Black Ink. I cut them out with matching Happy Heart Die Set and adhered them around the titles with foam tape. 



I felt my layout is too empty, so I added dots on the edge using Watercolor Dots Stamp Set following the ombre color palette. I added phrases and a cute heart from the same stamp set and completed it with longer sentiments from Happy Heart Stamp Set.



Now, it's time for fun!
