Altenew Ambassador, IG Giveaway and 2 cards for 1

Hi crafty friends! I have some fun news, Altenew contacted me and asked me if I was interested in being a brand ambassador for the next 3 months and I immediately said YES! This means over the next few months I'll be sharing Altenew inspiration, using both new and fan favorite products, AND I'll be hosting an Instagram giveaway each month.💖💖
Check out the cards I made and scroll down for supply list and giveaway details.
My cards use the gorgeous Captivating Floral Swag collection. I stamped, stenciled and die cut the image and THEN cut it in half to create 2 cards! Basically getting 2 cards out 1 image.
I love a good twofer 😍
Making these cards is the first time I have used the reformulated Altenew Fresh Dye Inks and I am really impressed! The inks go on smoothly and blend really nice. I stamped on Bristol Smooth cardstock which is what I always use with my Layered Stencils for the best results.
Here's a closer look at each card.
The Fresh Dye Inks come 4 inks to each pack and retail for $32 (keep eye out for sales!). OR you can get Mini Cube sets of 4 which retail for $15. The colors all range in shade from light to dark which takes out the guess work for your layered stamping or stenciling projects!
I really love how my cards turned out!

Spellbinders Classic Mouse Holiday Collection, 3 card designs

Hi crafty friends! CALLING ALL MICKEY MOUSE FANS!!! Today Spellbinders released a Christmas themed addition to the Say Cheese Classic Mouse collection
The collection is called Classic Mouse Christmas Collection and features 2 die sets, a stamp and die set, and a collection kit with 12x12 paper, ephemera and more! Check out the cards I made and scroll down to see a complete supply list.
All of my cards start with a pretty piece of patterned paper from the A2 Holiday paper pad by Scrapbook.com. I think the colors and patterns in this pad fit with the vibe of Mickey and Minnie so well! I added some glitz and shine with using pieces of Treasured cardstock. This keeps the card flatter for easier mailing! I love how these turned out!

How cute is this little squirrel and his acorn house? To start, I chose a fun pattern from the A2 Cozy Autumn paper pad and adhered it to my card base. I then used the Essentials Arches die set and die cut Antique White Brushed Metallic cardstock as the backdrop for the acorn house and all the leaves. The sentiment is from the BetterPress set called Autumn Sentiments pressed with peppermint ink. I love how this turned out!
