Welcome! I’m so happy you’re here.
I am excited and honored to be included in Altenew’s 10 Anniversary Blog Hop – Day 2. 😁
I have a few projects to share…and honestly, I had a hard time narrowing it down to these 3.
The first project with the Pond Flowers Die set. This is not a new product, but it is new to me. I’ve been eyeing it for a while on Altenew’s site, and finally bit the bullet. I used the new Enchanted Garden Fresh Dye Inks and Brushed Gold Metallic Cardstock. I used the die to create a stencil to create my background.
This next card is a go-to technique I’ve used a lot with the Geo Frames Dies. I love using this diamond die to cut up my flowers, and then piece it back together like a puzzle.
This next project utilizes some of my newest favorites – the Mega Blossom Stencil Set and the Tufted Elegance Embossing Folder. Either one of these by themselves is amazing, but together, chef’s kiss!!
