Altenew: A Year In Review Blog Hop + Giveaway

By KariV on December 28, 2021 in Classes, Paper Crafting

Hello and welcome to our Year in Review blog hop. This is such a fun one…we are sharing our favorites from the year!!

This was not easy for me to pick just four projects from Altenew that I loved. But I narrowed it down and had some help from my family in picking the very best ones. Here they are:

1. Rose with Kissing Technique:

This card was a result of the Name Alphabet Challenge! I had to choose a technique that started with the first letter of my first name, which is K! This threw me for a loop at first and then I remembered the KISSING technique, which I used on the vase. I love how it turned out with THIS rose layering die set! (read the full post and see more Kissing cards HERE)

2. Peace Rose with Gold Foil

The Gilded Rose hot foil plate turned out to be a big favorite!! Altenew released their very first hot foil collection, and this Gilded Rose with Layering Stencil for coloring was completely a dream to work with! I love how dramatic and large it is, and the resulting card is just beautiful! When you have amazing supplies like these, it is easy to get a stunning look.

3. Queen of the Lilies

The Queen of the Lilies Layering stamp set was one of my favorite layering stamp sets of the year. Altenew really has their layering stamps dialed in…and this one turns out gorgeous with any colors you use! See more color examples and cards with this set in THIS blog post.

4. Carolina Allspice

I adore the Craft-A-Flower series from Altenew, and this Carolina Allspice was a DELIGHT to put together! I love the layers and the look of the leaves, and I think once these flowers are assembled, they create a stunning card! See the original blog post and video HERE.

I hope you agree with my TOP 4 picks for the year. I know there were lots more products and cards that I loved…but these ones just stood out for me!

NEW CLASS!

I also wanted to announce that I will be teaching (along with some other talented Altenew Certified Educators!) a NEW class over at Altenew called “Wonderful Ways with Dies” and I want to invite you to join us! It starts this week and it’s going to be a fun one! You can join in anytime…and the classes are yours to watch over and over if you’d like.

You can choose to join just the class for some inspirations and beautiful techniques OR you can purchase the class AND the kit so you will have all the products to reproduce the cards we share in class! Win-Win! I hope to “see” you there!
