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

Hello there, I am delighted to be joining Altenew today to celebrate the release of the September 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series with a fun blog hop. There are lots of products being released today like Build-A-Garden, Dynamic Duo, Mini Delight and much more! For my project today I am using Craft-A-Flower: Japanese Camellia. 

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: Japanese Camellia Layering Die Set from white cardstock. Using an Altenew Mini Blending Brush, I blended inks on top. I used Altenew Sweet Dreams Fresh Dye Inks for the flower petals, Altenew Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks for the flower centres and Altenew Frosted Foliage Fresh Dye Inks for the leaves. 


The flowers were then assembled and adhered using liquid glue. I took a US A2 sized white card base and cut off just over 1/4" from one side to accommodate the overhanging leaves. I then applied Altenew Dotted Washi Tape to the the bottom at an angle. The leaves were adhered on top first (to hide the edge of the washi tape) and then the flowers added on top. 


I took the sentiment from the Altenew Sincere Sentiments Stamp Set and stamped it onto black cardstock using Altenew Embossing Ink. I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip and adhered to the card using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape

  14. Hi Michelle. I love the new Japanese Camellia die. It is on my Wish List. Your card is gorgeous, and I love the Blues you chose. It’s like a beautiful summer day. I also like unexpected black dots. I don’t have that washi tape, but I think I could get that look with a marker. Thanks for the idea.
