Hi All

It’s time for Altenew’s latest die release!! This one is amazing and I can’t wait to share the projects I created with you! Stay tuned for details of the giveaway and the next stops on the hop! If you get lost you can start over on the Altenew blog.

My projects today feature the new Just Leaves die set. They’re gorgeous and I couldn’t wait to create realistic looking leaves using my alcohol markers. Simply die cut the leaves using Solar White cardstock, saturate them with greens, oranges, reds and then score with a pokey tool and curl to create ‘leaves’!

When I’d created my leaves, I used the new Linear Crossroads and Twigtastic dies to act as a background. For this first card, I used Linear Crossroads and heat embossed Golden Peach embossing powder. I arranged my leaves over the top with foam tape and then mounted onto a panel of Powder woodgrain cardstock with more foam tape..

I splattered some warm sunshine spray onto the panel and then popped onto a note card. The sentiment is from the recently released Eucalyptus Jar, stamped in Grapevine Mixed Media ink and heat embossed in clear, then trimmed out.

I achieved a similar effect with the remaining leaves, this time using the Twigtastic die which I heat embossed with Copper embossing powder. I adhered the leaves in the same way and mounted onto a Spicy Yoghurt card panel.

Again I splattered with Warm Sunshine spray and also a few clear confetti sequins. I trimmed the panel slightly to almost a square. The sentiment is from Eucalyptus Jar again stamped in Grapevine, heat embossed in clear and punched out. I mounted it over a gold thread nest.

You can find these and all of the brand new dies over in the Altenew store!
