The videos in this course were very inspirational and one technique I particularly like doing is die cut inlay. Although it can be a little time consuming, it is also rather therapeutic and great to do while watching a movie on TV! I started with an A2 panel and ink blended a pink background […]

  Scene building is a bit out of my comfort zone but I embraced the challenge as if you don’t try something you never know if it will be successful or not!  I decided to create a male birthday card this time and seeing as I had the Altenew Mountain Scene stencil in my collection,

  I created 2 fun and colourful cards after watching the video tutorials.  It is great to stretch your supplies by creating stencils from die cuts and for these 2-for-1 cards I used the Altenew Tangled Loops Cover Die.  I die cut the panel in 80 lb Neenah Classic Crest Solar White card stock, used

  I always love to add some bling and sparkle to my designs so this card was fun to create.  I used the Altenew Peony Dream 3D Die Set to create this card. I decided to die cut all the elements in white card stock and colour them accordingly, rather than trying to find lots

  I enjoyed this class and decided to showcase the galaxy background technique in my male card. Galaxy backgrounds are actually very easy to create. I used an 80 lb Neenah Classic Crest Solar White piece for my card panel. I used a few colours of Distress Oxide ink to blend in different colours over

  I am a big fan of ink blending! I find it very relaxing and the results are always beautiful. This video tutorial was fun to watch and this is my card creation inspired by the videos. I decided to do the embossed resist technique and used an image from the Altenew Rose Blossom stamp

  I think my style of crafting, whether it is card making or any other paper craft, is clean and simple. Fussy cards with lots of different layers and textures and paper flowers are stunning but sometimes less is more and an understated, simple card is so elegant.          For this card

  This card was such fun to create! I chose the Altenew Peony Bouquet layering stamp set as I love classic beauty of this stamp set. I used my stamping platform to create the flowers and leaves as I find this easier, especially if you are making more than 1 flower. I used Distress Oxide

  I am very excited to be part of the Altenew Education Certification Program. I am on Level 1 currently. This first card is my interpretation from the “All About Layering 1” video tutorial. I chose to use the Build-a-Flower Stargazer layering stamp set for this card. I love Altenew layering stamps as the end

  Here is my layout with a Christmas theme.
