Craft Your Life Project Kit updates 
Craft Your Life Project Kit will no longer be released to the public in the Altenew store, unlike other subscription products. It will only be available via the Ultimate Subscription Plan or Craft Your Life Project Kit Monthly Subscription Plan.


For my today’s project I used beautiful Craft Your Life Project Kit: Zero-Waste Flowery Pattern. This is set was available for July and it is exclusive to those who subscribed to Craft Your Life Project Kit Monthly Subscription Plan.

i'm here for you

I stamped my floral pattern with black and used coordinating stencils to colour them in. I used the follwing Altenew Crisp Dye Inks: greens from Tropical Forest Crisp Dye Ink Oval Bundle, pinks from Cherry Blossom Crisp Dye Ink Oval Bundle and blues from Cool Summer Night Crisp Dye Ink Oval Bundle. To finish my card I used Zero-Waste Flowery Pattern Die Set and die cut it out of white cardstock. I inked the negative piece with Dusk Crisp Dye Ink and used it as a backdrop on my project. The last step was to add my sentiment.

For today’s blog hop I created a quick and simple card using the newly released Color Blobs Stencil. It comes with three blobs to perfectly fill the background of any outline stamp set in your collection but today I used it to create a simple abstract background.

thank you

I started by applying Pink Diamond and Moss Crisp Dye Inks over the stencil with Altenew Blending Brushes. To finish my design I added smaller splashes from the stencil with black ink for more interest. My last step was to add a sentiment from Elegant Sayings Complete Bundle.

thank you

That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is Emily Midgett!
