Hello | Altenew June 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello and welcome! Today we’re celebrating the new Altenew June 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series release! If you arrived from visiting Agnieszka Malyszek , you’re right on track. If you’d like to start from the top, please visit the Altenew Blog. Check the bottom of this post for giveaway information and the full blog hop list.

My card features the new Craft-A-Flower: Saffron Layering Die Set. This set makes it so easy to put together two gorgeous large blooms! I began by die cutting the bottom petal layer of each bloom from a dark pink cardstock and the upper layers and petal details from a slightly lighter coordinating pink cardstock. On the lighter layers, I added some shading using the Copic Airbrush System (with an air compressor) and a dark pink Copic Marker. This look can also be achieved with a blending brush and dark pink ink.

Next, I glued all the petal layers together and then glued the yellow and green details to the centers of the flower.

For the background, I used the Tiled Chevron 3D Embossing folder to dry emboss a piece of white cardstock and then die cut the resulting embossed piece with a die from the Ornate Nesting die set. I used foam tape to adhere the piece to a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of light gray cardstock and then used more foam tape to adhere the blooms and leaves.

To finish, I added a die cut sentiment created using the Elegant Sayings stamp and die bundle and then glued the card front to a card base.
