Altenew Blue Birthday with Pattern papers Card

 

Using all Altenew stamps only, I made this with leftovers from another card and am in love with how it turned out!! The flower is from Beautiful Day layering stamp set with the Deep Blue Sea mini cube set, and Green Fields with Jet black ink stamped with my MISTI tool for alignment. The sentiment was heat embossed on black and added after die cutting and blending blue ink over the center piece. The bling was needed to fill in the blank spot and is from Want2Srap black swirl bling. The gold glitter washi is from Little B and the adhesive is Art Glitter glue in my Sweet Petunia Precision Glue (Gun) Press. All of the design came together easily from the items still laying on my table from previous projects. Hope you enjoy it!! #worldcardmakingday2026

Altenew October Inspiration Challenge

  Altenew Inspiration for October 2026

For this October Inspiration Card I used Bamboo Roses Stamps and though I die cut them, I preferred that the flowers be less white so ended up fussy cutting them all out! I had colored them with alcohol markers and then used a black brush marker to go around all of the edges of the fussy cut pieces. The frame is Altenew Fine Frames die cut with gold foil. The base is made from laying down blended green ink first then using Mayan Gold Shimmer Relief Paste with the Vintage Motifs stencil and allowing to dry. The "Lovely" sentiment was from the Altenew Friend stamp set

Graphic 45 Joy to the World tag card

 Using Graphic 45 Joy to the World collection. Heavenly Choir is the background base and the stickers were made into tags. I added one sticker to the red foil and fussy cut around the outside, punched holes with my Crop-A-Dile and added Offray gold ribbon. The sequins were added and I had a "Merry Christmas" sequin I glued to the angel as if she is holding it for my sentiment. Hope you are enjoying all of my cards for the #worldcardmakingday2026 There are more to come.

Altenew October Inspiration Card

Altenew October Inspiration Challenge

I just LOVE Altenew and these are fun days to play along with their Inspiration Challenge this month of cooler weather. This card is using many products which if not stated are all Altenew. I die cut the Enchanted Mirror die for the frame of the card in cream cardstock and then blended the edges with brown. The flowers were die cut out of purple cardstock and then blended with the Enchanted Garden Fresh dye ink to make them have depth. The leaves were from 2 different greens and then both were blended with Emerald ink. The stamin had Amber Blaze added to them as well to show the orange color more vibrantly. The flower and leaves are the Plum Blossoms set with 4 flowers and I only used the 2 smaller leaves due the size of the frame. The card base was stenciled using the Paper Echoes stencil with Maya Gold Shimmer Relief paste and left to dry. Then I used the Organic Linen 3D Embossing folder and because it is 6 inches and the card base was 7", I did it twice through separately. The gold glitter washi tape from Little B was added to cover to that area of difference. After each flower, leaf and frame as well as card had blended shading, I put the elements together. I added dimension to the leaves and flowers before the card was put together and then splattered with Gansai Tambi red gold paint.

Graphic 45 Adventure Awaits New Dock Layout

 

Using the new Graphic 45 Adventure Awaits papers, I made this layout about rebuilding my old dock that had sat under water for almost 2 years back in the day. The boards were falling through and were walkable but barely. We hired a nice man who did all of the work and here are the photos of the process. I put the removal on the left and the new dock on the right. Later we put the lights on. These fabulous Graphic 45 papers had everything I needed and I added the burlap string, tied and stapled to bring texture to the layout. Also, other elements from the same collection.

49 & Market Cherish Forever Layout

Rochelle Spears July Sketch 

 Scrappy Friends Stacy's Tic Tac Toe: Upper left corner to lower right corner. Paint was used to splatter the layout using Deco Art Folk Art white Chalk Paint and a splatter brush. 4 different papers from the Serenity collection for the banners and mat. Hearts are on circle frame as well as the die cut one. 

So many products on this layout: 49 & Market Vintage Artistry Serenity collection including the laser elements, and some of Tranquility cluster elements are the main products. I splattered white chalk paint across all elements of the layout and even the hidden journal card. It was rather funny because I got it all over me, the box, grass and what I was wearing!! After I thought that I had finished cleaning all of it up, my husband came in and said I had splatters on my face too!! I like how the layout came out but even splattering outside, didn't take in the problem of me being so close to the subject!! LOL!!
