Altenew Exotic Garden Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello friends!
Warning: Super-heavy photo post 

  Welcome to Exotic Garden Release Blog Hop from Altenew!
I am super excited to share some cards and home decor projects with you.
If you arrive from my friend Keren Baker's blog, you are in the right place!

All the details about this blog hop, please visit Altenew Card Blog 

Feature products #1: Simply Spring Stamp & Die Bundle, Dovetail Butterflies Stamp & Die Bundle

 

This card is obviously packed with inky and die-cut goodness.  The Simply Spring Stamp & Die is

large enough to cover the entire A2 size card.

 

 

 Thanks to the coordinating die, it was super easy to mount the stamped and inked panel to the card. Normally, I would just fussy cut the large image and save myself some money. However, this die has some intricate corners and spots that it is nearly impossible to cut everything precisely.

 

 One of the butterflies from Dovetail Butterflies Stamp & Die Bundle was inserted into the flowers. This gives movement and interest. When you popped up the entire piece of die, it looks amazing!!

   

 

Feature products #2: Tropical Jungle Stamp Set, Tropical Jungle Die Set

 

 

For this very vibrant design, I decided to use Watercolor Brush Markers to color the images.
 

 

 

With the mix of watercolor, this image is beautiful and organic-much like the actual Tropical plant. 

The last time I saw a plant like this was when we took a cruise in 2019. 

To make this image stand out, I die cut a two more and stacked them up as one piece.

   

 

Feature products #3: Dovetail Butterflies Stamp & Die Bundle, Linear Crossroads Die


 

If you love butterflies, this is a must-have! The sizes of the butterflies are awesome. 

 

For my design, I stamped a few colors in yellow, peach/coral and read/orange. 

 

 

I stamped and clear-embossed one of the butterflies  and popped it up as the focal point.

 

Feature products #4: Sweet Ginkgo Stamp Set, Sweet Ginkgo Die Set

 

Green is such a soothing and serene color. I decided to use predominantly in green for this stamp set.   I started with creating a watercolor background with Altenew Brush Markers. 

 

I then stamped the Ginkgo in various colors- light yellow and various greens.

 

 I took the advantage of the dies and die cut the stamped pieces.

 

 Now..... I have to ask, do you have a favorite card in this stop? Inquisitive mind wants to know. 😀
