Altenew April 2019 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway...

Welcome to the April 2019 Altenew Release Blog Hop!  There are SO many new and fun things this month so hold on tight!  I have 3 projects to share using the new stamps, dies and paper packs!  Keep scrolling to read about the Stamp Bundles, the new paper packs, the giveaway and to see the full blog hop list!

For my first project, I grabbed the new sets, Weekend Doodles and Be Kind Stamps.

Altenew April 2019 Release
To create this card, I heat embossed these adorable blooms on the light gray card base.  I did a little coloring with Prismas and OMS.  Last, I went in and stamped that gorgeous new sentiment in black ink.

This next card uses the new Blushing Blooms paper pack and that beautiful Fancy Hello Die....

Talk about a quick and simple card!  The back 2 layers are from the new paper pack and then I added the hello in a coordinating card stock color.  I finished the card off with some clear dew drops.

This last stamp set is one of my faves!  It's called Rose Spray....

I simply stamped out the stems and blooms on a white card panel.  I added in the sentiment from the More Than Words Stamp Set. Next, I cut 1/4" strip off the side of the card and added it to the card base lined with a piece of black and white striped paper.  Super easy!
