Altenew 8th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 5 + Giveaway (over $2,000 in Total Prizes)

Hello and welcome to Day 5 of the Altenew 8th Anniversary Blog Hop! I am so thrilled to be joining in to congratulate and celebrate Altenew!

Today I have made a project using some of my favorite products (and you KNOW it’s not easy to narrow it down!) I love the dies and embossing folders from Altenew, so I’ve put them together for this card.

Oh, that Dreamy tile embossing folder is so so beautiful!! Here I gently swiped an ink cube (in 2 colors) over the top to get color on the embossed portions. I have a video of how this came together, and I’ve linked it below for you:

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!






Don’t forget there are some great promotions during their 8th Anniversary Celebration!! Like these detailed blending brushes…I LOVE them and you can get them F*REE with a qualifying purchase:

Now let’s talk prizes!
