Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Daisy Release Blog Hop + Giveaway



Hello friends!  There is a new Craft-A-Flower and I am so excited to share it.  It's a daisy! I have a couple projects to share using these amazing new dies so keep scrolling to check them out.  You can find the prize information at the end of this post along with the Giveaway info.  Don't forget to leave a comment for your chance to win!

I wanted to share a project using just one of the multi step dies to create a negative effect....


Altenew-CAFDaisAltenewy6


I used 2 of the layer dies on a full white card card front to create the top panel.  I added some ink blending onto the white card base.  I added foam tape to the pack of the die cut panel and then added it to the card base so the yellow ink shows through.  


Altenew


Next, I cut up a sentiment that I heat embossed on black cardstock and added that to the card front.


Altenew


This next card uses the full Daisy die set to create a little bouquet....


Altenew


I die cut the layers using a light gray for the base to show the shadows.  I added in the layered greens for those gorgeous leaves.

I scored an aqua card base and added in the sentiment from Engraved Flowers and then layered in the daisies on top.

    Perfect daisies. The grey in the back just emphasizes the whiteness of the daisies.

    You used the negative...how brilliant! It is such a detailed flower it still looks so good. And of course your second card is just gorgeous. Using the light grey card stock as a layer was another stroke of genius.

  18. Jessie ScottAugust 7, 2020 at 2:39 PM

    Very hard to decide which...I.think I like the second one the best but I like the simplicity of the first one and that you could make it while also making the second one!

    Your daisies really turned out quite nicely and you get two cards for the cost of one; so to speak! I like all the resourcefulness! Never am I one to waste paper, so I appreciate seeing how effective this die set can be. sTill thinking of getting it! ;) I enjoyed seeing the daisies on the teal/blue background! Super sweet!
