Altenew | August 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello there, I am delighted to be joining Altenew today for the August 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series Blog Hop. Yesterday saw the release of the Marvelous Monthly Series sets and today I am using the Craft-A-Flower: Bellflower Layering Die Set. It is such a pretty set! You can purchase it as part of the Craft-A-Flower Monthly Subscription or separately. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off by die cutting the Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Bellflower Layering Die Set from white cardstock. I added ink blending to the flower petals using Altenew Enchanted Garden Crisp Dye Inks and an Altenew Small Ink Blending Tool. I then added ink blending to the stamens using Altenew Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks and the leaves use Altenew Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks.  


The flowers were assembled and adhered as per the guide on the back of the packaging. I ran a panel of white cardstock through my die cutting machine inside the Altenew Deck Planks 3D Embossing Folder. It was then adhered to a US A2 sized white card base using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. I added the leaves next, with liquid glue, followed by the flowers with more foam tape. 


I die cut the 'hello' from Altenew Versatile Greetings Die Set three times from white cardstock, adhered them one on top of another before adhering onto the card. To finish off, I embellished with a few Bubbles.
