Hello, crafty friends! I am so excited to be a part of Altenew’s February Release. This release is absolutely amazing!
The project below is a beautiful dove from the Creative Cuts: Doves in Flight Layering Die Set, and this bird is huge – I love it!!!
This project was pretty easy. I don’t have any cloud stencils so I used torn copy-paper in different positions to create my clouds. I used the Cloud White Pigment Ink on Misty Morning Cardstock. I love how they turned out.
I die cut the large dove from Creative Cuts: Doves in Flight Layering Die Set and used some ink for the feet and the beak. Kinda nice having minimal ink blending. 😊
I don’t know how Altenew does it, but their Mini Delight Stamp & Die Sets never disappoint – February’s is no different.
I stamped the flower cluster and used it for the background of my shaker. I just couldn’t help myself, I had to make a shaker balloon!
This next project I used the beautiful Serene Garden embossing folder. I pulled out some purple paper and planed on adding some color, but I thought it would work on it’s own with a simple sentiment and large black border. I think it’s a beautiful CAS card.

I love your take on these new products. These are beautiful!
Beautiful cards! I love the clouds background technique.
Such beautiful creations! LOVE your fabulous Hot Air Balloon, soooo pretty! Great Release!
GREAT MAKES! Your dove card and the shaker balloon are fabulous. I love the Serene Garden one, too. The idea of tomorrow being a new day and the ‘blank slate’ of the CAS card really go together. Your work is synonymous with elegance!

Love your cards! The dove is so beautiful against the blue sky background you made. What a fun idea to use the hot air balloon for a shaker card. And that embossing folder…..forget about it! It is so pretty and I want it and the stencils that can color it!

Hmm I am having some trouble posting comments today. If this is a double I apologize. I am glad to see Altenew is doing layering die animals as well as flowers.
All of your card are beautiful! I especially like your shaker card in the hot air balloon. So many great techniques! I’m also having problems with posting comments as someone stated earlier in the comments.

I really like the purple embossed card. It seems so open to appreciate the beauty.
Beautiful cards Jennifer! Love the floral detail on the shaker balloon card (my favorite of the three) and the clean style of the other two. TFS!

Love your cards. The purple paper against the black background is a wonderful idea. And, the shaker balloon is so inventive. Thanks for all the ideas.
I love the sky for the bird and the design detail for the balloon!
Beautiful cards in such soothing colours! Like the different takes on the products.
Sending Love is so beautiful. I would like to make this as a Sympathy card. But it is versatile–there are so many reasons I might want to send “love”.
Fabulous cards! The cloudy sky background technique is fantastic!
