For my second project I used my all time favorite Altenew stamp set called Everything About You and the Our Family Scrapbook Kit. I love all of the sentiment included in this stamp set. You will see it on future projects for sure.
I love this project because I love the look of the embroidery hoop paired with papercraft products. Plus, my niece looks so happy!!!
For my third project I used Altenew New Me stamp set to talk about all of the things I love about myself. This was a fun project to do because I reminded myself about myself!!

Concord & 9th Polka Dot Turnabout
Hello everyone!!! I’m here today showcasing Concord & 9th Polka Dot Turnabout stamp set!! Concord & 9th’s Turnabout stamps are a super big hit. They create such fun pattens and seamless creations. All you need is 2-4 different color inks and watch the magic happen.
Let’s take a look:
Beautiful right!! I used Concord & 9th Polka Dot Turnabout, Sophisticated Script and Sophisticated Script Uppercase stamp set.
Here’s how to create this card:
Decide on what ink colors you want to use. I used Altenew’s Cool Summer Night oval ink pads to stamp all of the dots.
Line the stamp up with the image on the back of the packaging to make off the center of the stamp.
To get the best impressions and the correct spacing, you must use a Misti to stamp the images.
After every stamp, turn your card 90 degrees until you’ve stamped four times.
Once the background is finish, stamp the sentiment using black ink.
Finished!!
What do you think?
So what do you think? Do you have any of the Turnabout stamp sets? If not, start out with the polka dot set first. Its easy. If you have the other turnabout stamps, which ones? I would love to hear which one you have.

Altenew December 2017 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway
Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew’s December 2017 Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing the all of the new Stamps and Dies. If you’ve arrived here from the talented Yoonsun Hur 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 Embroidery Loop Layout:
I’m so excited about this type of layout. I’ve never seen this done before. Totally a brilliant idea. I saw it on Instagram and had to give it a try. Thank you Lena from @rozalina_s for the idea.
Here’s how I created this Embroidery Hoop Layout:
I used a piece of pattern paper from Altenew Reflection Scrapbook Kit to create the base of the embroidery hoop.
Note: You have to really play with the paper and the hoop because the paper is very thick so it takes time for it to form to the hoop.
Once the paper is secured in the hoop, trim off the excuse edges and fold them back behind the loop.
Stamp the sentiment using Altenew Everything About You stamp set on a piece of what cardstock. Trim and round the edges.
Print and trim the photo to a 3 x 3 size.
Add thread behind the sentiment and the photo. Adhere both of them down using foam tape.
Finish the statement by using Altenew’s Our Family Chipboard Alpha Stickers.
For more texture, add some of the Altenew Our Family Enamel dots.
So very pretty!!
Let’s take another look:
