Hello there, today sees the release of the new Altenew Sparkle & Shine release. What a pretty release! There are lots of new stamps, dies and stencils plus ink pads too. For the release, we are celebrating with a fun blog hop. More information on that below.
PLEASE
NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full
disclosure.
I took a white A2 card base and using an
Altenew Large Ink Blending Tool, blended Cherry Blossom Crisp Dye Inks (Rubellite and Pinkalicious) for the top left hand corner, fading to white towards the bottom right hand corner. The sentiment was stamped using Obsidian pigment Ink and then the image added on top with
Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape, cutting off the edges that overlapped. To finish off, I added a few Lucy's Bubbles.
Next up are the new ink colours - Frozen Delights and Jewel Tones. These are available in mini size and full size. The minis are available in sets of six. The full-size ink pads are available in sets or individually. I used the mini sets today. The
Altenew Frozen Delights Crisp Dye Ink Mini Cube Set consists of six mini cubes in beautiful pastel shades.
This stencil is perfect for making swatches but also great to use to create patterns on cards and projects too!
Last but not least are the new coloring books. There is one for markers and one for watercolors. Both have the same beautiful floral designs in each. The
Altenew Watercolor Coloring Book has 24 pages of 12 designs (one with dark outlines and one with light) on 100% cotton 140lb cold press watercolor paper.
The
Altenew Marker Coloring Book has 24 pages of 12 designs (one with dark outlines one with light) on 80lb white cardstock. I look forward to trying this one out soon!

ReplyDeleteSo Red Jasper is the orange color? NGL that is a bit confusing.
ReplyDeleteSorry about that, the swatches were really just for showing how the stencil works and showing the colours as a whole set. I apologise. Yes, the Red Jasper is the orange colour and the red is Rhodolite. I am assuming that the Altenew website has better photos for each colour. Sorry about that.
DeleteI just love all the new Altenew colors!
ReplyDeleteso very pretty
