Altenew Educators Clean and Simple Blog Hop + Linky Party Giveaway!


Welcome here from Eva Bussom's blog!

 Happy you can join me for some Clean and Simple projects! The hop starts at the Altenew Blog and you can find the complete hop list at the bottom of this post.

First up is this 12 x 12 scrapbook layout:


I covered white cardstock squares with three different colours of Sea Shore Washi Tape. The squares are then embossed with the Checkered Diamonds, Organic Linen and Angled Mosaic 3D Embossing Folders.

The squares are then arranged along the bottom of the 12 x 12 cardstock, photos tucked in slightly and then a border of Golden Trim Washi tape is layered over the seam.


The title is die cut from Gold Foil cardstock with the Fine Alphabet Die. I layered some strips of washi covered paper trimmed from the squares underneath the title. Simple journaling and a scatter of Cool Summer Night enamel dots complete this clean and simple layout.

Altenew has some amazing mini stamps and it's always a treat when they send out a thank you stamp! I used one of these stamps, the Mini Hibiscus Tea for this card.


I coloured the image stamped on white cardstock with Artist Markers and framed is with a frame die cut with the Halftone Squares Dies. This frame was also die cut from cardstock covered with the lightest colour washi tape in the Sea Shore Washi tape set. Sentiment is stamped in Obsidian Pigment Ink with the Best Sentiments stamp set. Enamel Dots from Green Fields Enamel Dots embellish the card.

Giveaway Prizes

$130 in total prizes! Altenew is giving away a $20 gift certificate to 3 lucky winners and a $15 gift certificate to 4 winners! To win, please comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or each designer’s blog post on the blog hop list below by 07/03/2022.

 Today is our final day of Krafty Peeks for the June Release

We are so excited to share a wonderful set

by artist

Michelle Houghton called...

YOU'VE BEEN FRAMED!


This awesome set is of course the perfect compliment to Picture Perfect, which you saw yesterday! There are so many possibilities and fabulous sentiments included!! 


The stamped and fussy cut "frame" is instantly brings to mind a Polaroid photo so I traced the Bouncy Balloons stencil within the frame with a black Micron pen, then coloured with Copic markers.


I then layered the main image and sentiment stamped on white cardstock and matted on black cardstock white cardstock embossed with the Sizzix Adorned Tile 3D Folder. I've also inked the embossed piece with the new Flirty Flamingo ink and Cool Cantaloupe ink. I've finished the card off with a few Classic Krafty Dots.

This absolutely amazing set perfectly coordinates with the amusement park theme and the adorable CARNIVAL CRITTERS set from yesterday's peek!

I stamped the images, masked them off and inked the background with Incredible Indigo Hybrid Ink then added the pastes with the stencil. Once they were dried I removed the masks and coloured the images with Copic markers. A few Classic Krafty Dots and the sentiment stamped on vellum finish off the card.
