Happy Friday! Welcome to Altenew’s A Year in Review Blog Hop. If you came from the fabulous Kristina Werner’s blog, you are right on track!
To celebrate the amazing year of 2017, today I’m sharing my favorite Altenew cards that I have created this year. If you want more details of a particular card, just click on the photo of the card to go to the original post.
I combined three flower stamp sets to build my own floral arrangement: Build-A-Flower Coral Charm, Remember This, and Beautiful Day. Then I watercolored my images with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens.
To create my own stamped background, I stamped A, F, G letters from the Layered Letters AFG stamp set using four different ink colors: Mountain Mist, Volcano Lake, Lagoon, and Emerald.
I created a one-layer watercolor card using the Enchanted Iris stamps set and Crafty Friends stamp set. These flowers are a delight to color with any medium, and I decided to color them with my favorite watercolors: Mijello Mission Gold watercolor set.
I created a floral one layer card featuring the gorgeous flower images from the Amazing You stamp set. Then I colored my images with Prismacolor colored pencils.
Don’t you love all the layers in different shades of red? I was surprised to see myself being able to color the images beautifully with colored pencils.
I created a one-layer Father’s Day card using ink blending and heat embossing techniques, inspired my own cards, THIS and THIS. I used the cool images from the Best Dad stamp set to create my own heat-embossed background.
I mixed the images from several stamp sets from Altenew: Garden Treasure, Remember This, Beautiful Day to create my own floral arrangement. Then I colored them with Kuretake Gansai Tambi 36 watercolor set using two different watercolor techniques.
I wanted to create a sort of Happy New Year card featuring Happy Dreams stamp set and Bold Alphabet die set , but not using the common greeting “happy new year. Then I came up with my own sentiment, You make it happen! This also can be used for the encouragement card.
To create a one-layer floral card, I stamped the images from the Smile More stamp set and colored them with Copic markers.
To create a bold pattern, I stamped fun fruit images from the Simple Fruits stamp set with Altenew Crisp dye inks: Warm Sunshine, Orange Cream, and Parrot. It took me about 20-25 minutes masking all the orange images, but I guess it paid off.
To celebrate a new release of Artist Markers Set B and Artist Markers Set C from Altenew, I created a floral themed card using the Adore You Stamp Set and the Halftone Hearts Stamp Set.
I wanted to color my images with a unique color combo, without any red colors. I mainly used the flicking technique to blend the colors.
With this Build-A-Flower: Rose, anyone can achieve a realistic look as it gives extra depth to the rose image with six layers. To create my own floral arrangement, I combined Build-A-Flower: Rose with another fabulous stamp set from Altenew: Remember This.
I created a quick and simple winter holiday card using the Halftone Stars stamp set and Happy Holidays stamp set.
I finished off my card by adding some dots with Jet Black marker from Altenew Artist Markers Set A. I just couldn’t stop adding dots to my card. They really added extra details to my card.
I created my own sentiments by stamping the sentiments from the following stamp sets: Smile More, Hug Me, and Halftone Hearts.
Then I stamped the multi-step carnation images, leaves, and a cluster of tiny flowers from Build-A-Flower: Carnation around my sentiments to create my own floral background.
I created a fun card with a stamped background using the Speech Bubbles stamp set. FYI, I stamped speech bubble images with Altenew Crisp Inks: Rouge, Warm Sunshine, and Volcano Lake which is my favorite color combo of this year.
I diecut the floral frame three times using the Layered Floral Cover Die A and adhered them together. Next, I blended some Distress inks on the die cut frame and added some shading using Prismacolor pencils. Then I mounted the colored floral frame on the patterned paper.
Well, there you have it…my favorite Altenew cards of 2017. I was really inspired by my own creations while going through all the blog posts. I hope you had fun revisiting them with me and receiving some inspiration.

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues
Jul . 30 . 2020of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has
a lot of exclusive content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it appears a lot
of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know
any solutions to help prevent content from being stolen? I’d truly appreciate it.

I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s
equally educative and interesting, and let me tell you, you’ve hit the nail on the head.
The problem is something which too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
I’m very happy I came across this during my
search for something regarding this.
