Hello there, today I have two cards to share with you using the new Craft-A-Flower: Gerbera Daisy Die Set from the Altenew July 2026 release. As per tradition with Altenew, the July release is packed full of festive products. There are also non-festive products in the collection though, and that is what I am sharing today. Please come back on Saturday to see my festive ones!

As you can see, both card use the same design, just different colours. I had a actually planned on putting both flowers on one card but when I tried, the card just felt a little too busy for me, so in the end, I made two cards with one flower on each!
I started off by die cutting the Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Gerbera Daisy Layering Die Set from white cardstock. I added ink blending to the petals using Altenew Bubblegum Dreams Fresh Dye Inks for the pink flower, and Altenew Enchanted Garden Fresh Dye Inks for the purple one.
The flower centres were ink blended using Altenew Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks, and the leaves using Altenew Green Valley Fresh Dye Inks. The flowers were adhered together but before adding in the flower centres, I used the Altenew Petal Shaper Tool Set to shape the petals. The flower centres were then adhered on top.
I adhered the leaves to the US A2 sized card bases first, followed by the flowers, both using liquid glue. I then stamped the sentiment from Altenew Build-A-Garden: Blossoming Trio twice onto Altenew Crafty Necessities: Jet Black Cardstock using Altenew Embossing Ink.
I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set. They were cut into strips and adhered to the cards using Altenew Black Instant Dimension Foam Tape. In hindsight, I wish I had stamped the sentiment on the pink flower card using black ink onto white cardstock. Looking at it now, I think that would have been better and I will probably change it before sending it out! To finish, I embellished with Altenew Clear Iridescent Stellar Sequins.
