Altenew August 2022 Endless Ambition Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in Total Prizes!)

By on August 22, 2022 in Paper Crafting

Welcome to the Endless Ambition Blog Hop with Altenew! I am so excited to share my projects with this release…there are some amazing products!

This exciting release is chock full of possibilities for every crafter. Hot foil plates with coordinating stencil sets are the focus, but we have also included some beautiful die sets. Feathers, flowers, greenery, and sentiments will find their way to your projects this month. Lastly, Timeless Tulips (an exclusive retreat collection from July) will be available along with this release!

I have LOTS of projects to share, so let’s get started!

Card 1: Curtain Leaves Cover Plate Die

This is a gorgeous die…and I couldn’t resist creating an alcohol inked background and adding the Curtain Leaves Cover Plate die right over the top!

I added some ink blended leaves from THIS die and heat embossed that gorgeous sentiment from THIS set.

I am completely in love with this cover die and I think it will get tons of use!

Cards 2, 3 & 4: Dreamy Feathers die

You must KNOW that I couldn’t stop with this new die. It is GENIUS! The layers of this die allow you to cut different portions in different colors (and/or glitter paper!) and fit them all together as one. WOW!

For this first card I used Altenew Glitter paper in gold, some yellow paper and a slightly patterned paper for the top layer. I was simply in AWE as I put it all together. I added some white pigment ink for the clouds in the background. And now I have the “Feather Theme” song in my head from Forrest Gump…do you know the one?

Of course I couldn’t resist a RAINBOW themed feather!

For this one I watercolored the background with the Altenew watercolors, then I ink blended the bottom layer of the feather die with similar colors. I die cut the TOP layer of Dreamy Feathers die with white cardstock and added some glitter paper to the center of the feather just for good measure!

I splattered on some black paint and stamped the sentiment in black ink. I cut 3 additional feathers and stacked them up for some dimension. A few gold pearls finished this card off.

Once I finished that card, I thought the top layer of the die would look awesome on a background! First I die cut the back layer to act as a STENCIL and inked on some purple ink. Then I put the top layer over that…

Dreamy, right? That “For You” sentiment die is also a part of this release…and it worked perfectly for this card. I die cut the background of the sentiment in gold foil paper, and the top layer in a dark purple cardstock.

I have a video up on assembling these gorgeous feathers, and 3 ways to use your layering dies, check it out here:

Card 5: Hot Foil Wreath & Sweet Sentiments Hot Foil (with die)

This Hot Foil wreath is so beautiful, and it has a matching coloring stencil, which makes for an EASY card with just the right amount of foil.

There is that hot foil sentiment again…and I love that it has the die to cut it out. Here I foiled it in a matching blue foil to complement the wreath colors.

LOOK at that foil! Love it!

Card 6: Rainbow Burst Hot Foil Plate & Stencil

The Rainbow Burst Hot Foil plate is so fun! I used some AURA foil for this and then used the matching stencil to color in some soft colors.

I already had foiled the sentiments with some turquoise foil, and I thought the “Celebrate” sentiment would look perfect on this card! A little subsentiment and some gems finish off this stunning card.

Card 7: Timeless Tulips

I am a BIG fan of tulips so this set gives me all the heart-eyes! This beautiful stamp set has a matching coloring stencil and that really makes me happy!! I love an option of either coloring it myself, or simply adding ink for a quick card.

I hope you enjoyed all these projects today! Don’t forget to take a look at the entire release HERE because there are so many more awesome products. Altenew does a great job in creating product that makes card-making stunning AND easy!
