Today's cards were made using some products by Altenew. I was sent a couple of stamp sets and some inks to try out and to produce some step by step photo guides showing the ends result.
I have to admit to being initially challenged by one of the stamp sets - Simple Shapes - but had some fun in the end experimenting and creating backgrounds. The combination of designs you could come up with is endless, especially when you start adding different colours.
The other was a gorgeous set of flowers and butterfly stamps - Wild Hibiscus - they're really lovely.
So who are Altenew? They're an American paper crafting company (based in NY I believe) established in April 2014 so fairly new, but they have some lovely goodies on their website.
Here are a couple of cards I made using Altenew products.
