a little bit of Altenew love!

I've been spending a little extra time using sets that I love, and loving them like they deserve to be loved … you know the ones, right?  My Altenew florals are right at the top of my list of stamp sets that just keep on giving... here are a few of my faves, and how I've enjoyed them!

First up:  Handpicked Bouquet... water colored with my  newest favorite palette...


 

Just as beautiful stamped:


Next, a set that makes the most beautiful patterned paper:  Story of Us.  you may remember this one...
 
This time
in the four-cube mini Red Cosmos set...


Can you tell I'm looking forward to Spring?
Perhaps a few Morning Glories will join our beans 
in our new garden bed...

 
One more for the road... my newest addition to my Altenew collection:  Beautiful Heart!

Two-color stamping at its simplest, and prettiest,
if I do say so myself!

How would you like to plant a few new Altenew blooms in your own craft rooms?  There are plenty to choose from, and so many on SALE!  right now!  Don't forget to add the code to your basket, please!  Happy shopping!

  7. You've been busy, girl. I love everything you've done here, Michele. One thing I like about Altenew is that you can watercolor or stamp most of their flowers.

  13. So beautiful, Michele ... each and every one ... it's like being in a boutique florist! My favourite has to be the first, there's something so delicate and wonderfully soft about your colouring that makes it perfect with the bloom! Hugs, Anita :)

  14. So many beauties--love them all! The watercolored blooms are especially pretty. The die cut 'U' looks amazing with bright colors and lovely sentiment. And I adore the clear blue of the morning glories!

    Flowers are my nemesis, so I LOVE seeing what others can achieve with them and you've done an amazing job here.
    My fav. is the green 'lucky' card - so beautiful.
