Hello friends!
It's time to share another exciting Altenew Craft-A-Flower with you.
We are celebrating this month's Craft-A-Flower Antique Rose with a blog hop!
We are celebrating this month's Craft-A-Flower Antique Rose with a blog hop!
If you arrive from the blog of Verity Biddelcombe, you are in the right place.
If not, come and join the fun hop for ideas and inspiration.
Now...let's take in all those LAYERS! What do you think?
The guide on the package was very easy and clear to follow. Each petal has its distinctive shape that you will not get mixed up easily.
TIPS on creating your own color paper:
For my rose petals, I created my own custom blend colors. It is the quick and easy way. I applied 4 shades of Altenew ink to Gel Plate and let the ink dry. I then selectively die cut the colors accordingly.
If you do not own a Gel Plate , you can simple do the "Direct Ink to Paper" approach. Ink-blending is another great option, too! If you love watercoloring, you can paint your own color paper, too! Last but not least, Altenew Gradient Card Stock is another good option, too!
To compliment the roses, I used part of the Garden Trellis to ground the images. Currently this cover die is sold out over Altenew. Here is another option if you like to get this cover die.
I hope that you like my interpretation with this amazing Craft-a-flower Antique Rose Die!

BRILLIANT & STUNNING CARD! Your yellow & pink roses are simply beautiful! I LOVE that Altenew always gets its flowers botanically correct! God Bless & the Love of Christ to you all!!
Utterly beautiful and I love that you've added the texture of the lattice- it really sets of the beautiful flowers in those 2 lovely colourways x
SO beautiful!! Love the double roses and trellis!
This card is stunning🧡💖🧡 I cannot wait until mine arrives.
You create such stunning artwork! Love it!
Love these layered dies. And of course, the rose is THE flower of flowers! Your colors are beautiful.
Pretty color choices! And I like the lattice in the back, although I think I'd finish it with a strip at the top, or turn it over so the open end is at the bottom.
What an amazing stunner your card is...simply FABULOUS. So many gorgeous details with tons of texture and interest. Saw it on IG last night and fell in love.
Love your color choices!
This is so pretty. I love the two different roses. Thank you so much!

Those custom colors are so gorgeous!!!
Very pretty colors for the roses. Im particularly down to the peachy one, it’s lovely!
Gorgeous card. Love your color combination
Spring colors...finally!!!
How gorgeous, Virginia!
Stunning. But not getting the idea of the gel plate and letting the ink dry. Don't you need the ink wet?
Hi Virginia, your cards are so pretty. Love the use of the diamond background die -what a great idea.
Beautiful card. love the color combinations of the flowers.
I think this Altenew Vintage Rose CAF is the best so far. Your color blending is lovely.
Stunning rose and the combination of colors is brilliant!
Your work never ceases to amaze me. :) I absolutely love the colors you chose to do your roses in! They remind me of roses my husband's mother grew in her yard years ago. I also love the way you used the trellis pattern at the bottom of your card. Wonderful job, Virginia!
I love this card. Roses are some of my favorites, and this is just stunning.
Beautiful card!!!
Beautiful roses and I like the trellis background.
