{Clean and Simple} – Parent

Posted in April 2018, CASology Challenge by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!!! It’s CASology Tuesday!! We are back with another Clean and Simple Cue Card just for you!!

Take a look at my card:

For this card, I used Technique Tuesday Flowers For Mom Stamp Set! It’s just the cutest stamp I’ve seen. I love that little flower. Perfect for coloring.

Here’s how I created this card:

Cut cardstock to 4 x 8, scored at 4.

Use the MISTI to stamp all of the images and sentiment from Technique Tuesday Flowers for Mom stamp set using Altenew Jet Black Crisp Dye Ink.

Color the flower and the butterfly using Tombow 1500 Colored Pencils. They are brand new and layer colors beautifully.

Add just a touch of Wink of Stella glitter to the flower petals and butterfly for an added touch.

To finish the card off, use We R Memory Keepers 3 Way Corner Punch to punch all four corners using the 10mm and the 7mm sides.

What do you think?

Are you inspired to play along? Please let me know below!

Altenew April 2018 Stamp/Die Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Posted in Altenew Blog Hop, April 2018 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew’s April 2018 Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing the all of the new Stamps and Dies. If you arrived here from the talented Laurie Willison 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!

Take a look at my Wooden Wall Scrapbook Panel:

Joann’s is my favorite place now to look for different pieces to scrapbook on. I found this super cute unfinished wood wall decor and knew this would be perfect for my next project.

My niece is growing up so fast and I wanted to capture her sleeping. This will hang in her room when I’m done.

Here’s how I created this Wooden Wall Scrapbook Panel:

Use Altenew Floral Flurries Washi Tape and cover the entire wood panel.

Use number 15 Penblade to accurately cut the washi tape off the edges and in the middle creases.

Once the washi tape is place down, its time to die cut Altenew Mega Hello die and the Altenew You Are Loved die.

Attach each die cut word to foam die cut words for extra thickness.

Print your photos, attach them to the wood frame and then attach the die cut word dies.

Attach some embellishment and your done!

Let’s take another look:

You are loved

Amazing!!
