Altenew April 2019 Washi Tape/Embossing Paste Release Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to Altenew’s April 2019 Washi Tape/Embossing Paste Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing the new washi tape and embossing paste. If you arrived here from the talented Alex Syberia blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Card Blog so that you don’t miss a thing!

Let’s take a look at my planner page:

I love decorating my planner with card making supplies. Altenew’s new Embossing Paste looks amazing on these pages.

Here’s how I created the two-tone color butterfly:

Scoop out a small amount of the embossing paste on a piece of disposable plastic (I used a zip bag, it was on my desk).

Then I added a small amount of color from the Puffy Heart Ink Spray and Sunkissed Metallic Shimmer Ink spray to the embossing paste and mixed it in.

Place the Flowing Butterfly Stencil where you want the image and apply the color paste evenly.

Gently pick up the stencil to see the image.

Stamp the sentiment from the Reason to Smile stamp set above and/or below the image.

Let’s take another look:

I also created a bookmark for my planner as well, using the same method as before.

Here’s a close up. Look at that texture and depth.

What is a blog hop without an amazing gift? Yayyy!!

Orange Art Box + Unboxing Video

Posted in April 2019, Orange Art Box by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!!

I’m happy to be here today. It’s been awhile since I blog about something other then cards or scrapbooks. Today, I have a fun new adventure to share with you. Most of you know my daughter and I love crafting together.

Well, I came across an Art Subscription Box for Kids called the Orange Art Box. I discovered them a couple of months ago and I was impressed. My daughter loves getting mail and crafting, so I knew this would be perfect for her (and me too!!). Each month a box will arrive for her with different crafting projects inside.

Let’s take a look:

Say hello to the Orange Art Box!

What is the Orange Art Box, you ask?

It’s an art subscription box for kids ages 5-12. Every month they will receive a collection of projects to inspire them to create. Each box has one main project and multiple smaller projects for hours of fun!

Perfect for school breaks, weekend and traveling in the car!

How can you get a box?

You choose the subscription length that works for you. 1 month, 3 months, 6 months or 12 months! The longer you subscribe, the more you save (and we love to save, right!!!).

Boxes are shipped within the first two weeks of the month.

Do you want to see what’s inside a box?

Yayyy, my daughter and I opened her April box together. Do not judge me, I was so excited I asked her if I could take part. LOL!!!

LOL, this was my daughter’s first time doing a video. That’s why I was in it. She said that wasn’t so bad, so next time its her turn!!

What do you think?

Now that you know what’s inside one of the boxes, will you join me and purchase one for your little or gift one to someone you love? I would love to hear your thoughts!

Stay tune for my daughters creations!!

Thanks for stopping by!

If you arrived here from the talented Vera Yates blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, The Ton’s Blog so that you don’t miss a thing!

Take a look at my handmade stamped fabric pouch:

OMG, I’m so tickled by this cute little bag that I created! This was fun to make. Combining my love of stamping and sewing is beyond fun.

Let’s look at how I created this fabric pouch:

I stamped the new Daisy Fields image on to a piece of canvas cotton fabric using VersaCraft fabric ink.

Since the stamp is pretty big and I wanted to ensure complete coverage so I used the Memory MISTI.

Then I painted a couple of flowers using DecoArt Paint for Fashion Accessories.

Once I finished painting the flowers, it was time to sew the bag together.

It came together nicely.

Let’s look at the completed bag again:

Take a look at a couple of clean and simple cards:

April is National Letter Writing Month so I’m sending cards to different people just because. The new Wildflower Bouquet Builder stamp set is perfect for this mission. You can create so many different designs. I’m a big fan of this stamp set.

Who would like a handwritten card? Let me know!

Altenew 5th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 1 + Giveaway

Posted in Altenew Blog Hop, April 2019 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew 5th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 1!! Today we are celebrating Altenew turning 5 years old!! If you’ve arrived here from Chameleon Art Products blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Blog so that you don’t miss a thing!

Let’s take a look:

I created this cute photo card. Such a great why to showoff your latest adventure. I saw this idea a couple a month ago on YouTube and knew that I wanted to give it a try.

Let’s take a closer look:

To create the card with the closure, I used We R Memory Keepers Tab Punch Board.

To keep the card closed I used a retired Tombow Hook & Loop Tab. It’s a piece of Velcro, that does not tear the paper.

I used the Live Your Dream Puffy Alphabet Stickers to decorate the die cut embellishment.

For the photo, I created a tag using We R Memory Keepers Tag Punch Board. I used Altenew Gold Washi Tape from the New Day Card Kit to decorate it.

Then I adhered the photo on top and done.

Super quick and easy.

Let’s take another look:

I love how this photo card turned out. Big enough to display a photo and small enough to fit in you pocketbook.

So what do you think?

Welcome to Technique Tuesday April 2019 Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing all of the new stamps and dies. If you arrived here from the talented Ana Anderson blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Technique Tuesday blog so that you don’t miss a thing!

Take a look at what I created:

I love when I have the opportunity to combine my love of stamping with my love of sewing.

I sewed this apron so that I could use Technique Tuesday Growing Garden to decorate it. I love how it turned out. I wish I photograph the sewing process but didn’t think of it until after I completed it. LOL!!

Let’s take a closer look:

No color was add because I wanted to stay with the black and white design.

Decorating the boarder with the growing plant stamp really made the boarder pop.

I love how all of the stamps coordinate with one another. That made it easy to decorate each pocket.

This apron is on its way to my good friend in North Carolina. She started a garden in her backyard and this gift would be perfect for her.

Let’s take another look:
