Stencil Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello, and welcome to Altenew January 2020 Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing brand new stamp sets, dies, and stencils. If you arrived here from the talented blog, Emily Midgett, then you are on the right track. If this is your first stop, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Card Blog.

Take a look at my gift packaging:

I love making jewelry for others. It’s been a hobby of mine for a while now. When its time to give it to the recipients, I’m always looking for pretty packaging.

When I found this tin pan, I knew it would be perfect for the bracelets I was making. Once inside, the tin needed something else. I reached for Altenew’s Hello and Hugs Stamp Set to stamp on the cover.

Here’s how I stamped on the plastic:

For this tin, stamping on the plastic is pretty easy since you can open the tin and press on the inside of the tin.

Place the stamp down on the table, then place the tin on top of the stamp and use your hands and press. Cover the entire area.

Remove the stamp to reveal the stamped image.

If the stamp didn’t stamp all the way through, line the stamp up again.

Re-ink the stamp and press harder in the areas that were missed.

Nicely done.

Such a pretty gift to receive. What do you think? Please let me know.

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

Prizes:

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!

You are loved

Amazing!!

Altenew March 2018 Stamp/Die Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Posted in Altenew Blog Hop, March 2018 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew’s March 2018 Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing the all of the new Stamps and Dies. If you 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 Framed Scrapbook:

I’m always looking for ways to stretch my scrapbooking ideas and I love this one. I am totally tickled by this scrapbook frame. Amber from Damasklove posted some great buys at Joann’s the other day on Instagram and it gave me some ideas. So I went to Joann’s, picked up this wooden panel and decided to create a scrapbook frame.

I ordered a pair of Crocs for the first time and thought it would be fun to playfully document them. I’m going to wear these at work.

Here’s how I created this Scrapbook Frame:

Use Altenew Dotted Washi Tape to cover the bottom of the wood panel.

Then stamp hello from the Sincere Greeting stamp set around the border of the frame using Stazon black ink.

Print the pictures using Fujifilm Instax SP-3 and Fujifilm Instax Square Film.

Add the photos to the left side of the frame using foam tape.

Add the title using Altenew Our Family chipboard stickers.

Type or write the journaling and adhere it under the title.

Decorate the photos and frame with embellishments from the Reflection Scrapbook Collection and Our Family Scrapbook Collection.

So different, yet so effective. I love it!

Concord & 9th Polka Dot Turnabout

Posted in Concord & 9th, December 2017 by Kreative Kymona

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.

Layered – Where Creativity Meets C9

Posted in June 2017, Where Creativity Meets C9 Blog Challenge by Kreative Kymona

Second post for today
If your looking for the Altenew Design Team announcement post, click here

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with the Where Creativity Meets C9 Blog Challenge Design Team!! Our challenge this month is Layered!

Take a look at my card:

turnabout stamp set

To create this card, I used Concord & 9th Oh, Hello Turnabout stamp set paired with Clearsnap Colorbox Archival Die Inks.

I followed the directions on the back of the stamp set packaging as to ensure that I stamped correctly on my card panel.
I used 3 different color inks from Clearsnap to stamp each turnaround.
When using this stamp set, once you stamp the first set, you turn the cardstock not the stamp to make the right stamp marks.
Once card panel was completed, I die cut a piece of vellum using a circle die.
Then I stamped the main sentiment using Versamark and added white embossing powder. Heat set.
Adhere the vellum to the card front using foam dots.

Super quite and easy. I love this stamp set for the sentiments included. They are so powerful and encouraging.

What do you think? Please let know below.

I can’t wait to see how you interpret our challenge theme this month.
