Hi there! Today I’m excited to be joining Altenew for their May Release Blog hop. If you are following the hop then you should have arrived here from the lovely Svitlana Shayevich‘s blog.
My first project features the Budding Thanks stamp set as well as the coordinating dies. I used several Altenew inks with this gorgeous multi-step stamping set. The sentiment is from Many Thanks.
For the background I used the new Layered Plaid Cover Die A. I layered white on white for a subtle tone on tone plaid pattern that didn’t distract from the colorful blooms.
This next card features the Layered Letters AFG stamp set along with the coordinating dies.
I stamped each polka dot ‘A’ with two colors of ink to give them a nice gradient look.
I die cut each letter using the coordinating dies and popped them up onto a Dark Gray panel. I also went a little bonkers with the Nuvo drops. As you can see I put them everywhere, ha!
GIVEAWAY!!
To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to THREE lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew blog by Thursday, June 1st at 11:59 pm EDT for a chance to win. The winners will be announced on the Altenew blog on Saturday, June 3rd.

Your next stop on the hop is Raquel Bowman.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
For the background I trimmed strips of solid cardstock to 1/2″ strips and adhered them onto a card base. Then I die cut the Spring Shower Cover die onto vellum and adhered it over the stripes using spray adhesive. For the sentiment I used the Caps Bold Alphabet dies along with a coordinating sentiment embossed from the Layered Letters AFG stamp set. 
Here’s a video to show you how I created this card.
