Hi there! Today I’m joining Altenew for their August Blog Hop! If you’re following the hop then you should have arrived here from Vicky Papaioannou’s blog.
My first card features the ultra fabulous Simple Shapes XL stamp set. It’s a geometric shape lover’s dream set!
There are three different sizes of triangle images in the Simple Shapes XL set that I used to stamp each corner with Altenew Inks. For the sentiment I used one of the Envelope Liner die.
My next card features the Striped Leaf Cover die.
How gorgeous is this Striped Leaf design? I popped it up over a panel smooshed with Distress Oxide inks and then added a sentiment from the Envelope Liner dies.
I also made a liner for my envelope with the Envelope Liner Die using some striped pattern paper to coordinate with my card.
Prizes:
To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to THREE lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog by Thursday, August 31st at 11:59 pm EDT for a chance to win. The winners will be announced on the Altenew Card Blog on Saturday, September 2nd.
I will also draw a winner to receive a $30 gift certificate. Leave me a comment for your chance to win!

Gail Plaskiewicz
August 25, 2017 at 9:56 pmOh my gosh, your cards are so beautiful! I love the purples and blues. You remind me of me when you made that card. When I color, I always seem to know where all the colors should go and the colors are all in the right place. 2 people who are artists told me that because of where I place my colors I am also an artist. I would not have thought to put those colors together so I am going to also call you an artist. I love all those colors together! What did you use on that purple and blue card? It looks like velvet. I am impressed!
Those leaves are amazing! I love all the shades of green and the blue greens too. I love to do variegation when I color leaves. I’ve never tried it with water colors but I do it with colored pencils and crayons all the time. You’ve made 2 amazing cards! Thanks for letting us see your cards and for giving us the chance to win something. I hope that I do!

The colours are gorgeous behind it and I like that you popped up the whole panel. And that first card…stunning! The colours are so rich. I wasn’t that interested in this set when I first saw it but after a few projects I’ve seen that used it, it’s really grown on me. I now see the endless possibilities of it. That’s one of the reasons I love blog hops 🙂
