Altenew Crafty Friends Blog Hop Day 1 + Giveaway + VIDEO


Hello everyone! I am so happy to be participating in the Altenew Crafty Friends Blog Hop today! You should have come from Svitlana Shayevich, but if not please start at the Altenew blog.




I made two card with gorgeous Altenew washi tape!



VIDEO TUTORIAL

A detailed process of these cards you can watch here on this post or in HD at my YouTube channel.



Thank you so much for watching!


For my first card I used Glitter Flurries washi tape and decided to combined it with the Leaf Frame cover die. I adhered a piece of washi tape onto white panel and fussy cut the flowers.


 Next, I die cut the Leaf Frame out of white cardstock and adhered it onto light gray cardstock.

 Then, I adhered the flowers with foam tape onto my panel and finished the card with sparkling sequins.



 I die cut Love and heat embossed it with Altenew Platinum Crisp embossing powder. 

For my second card I adhered washi tape onto white piece of cardstock, trimmed the edges edges and decorated it with tiny stripe of gold washi tape. 


 Then, I adhered some flowers from previous card with foam tape on top of my my panel. 



 I white heat embossed the sentiment and finished my card with sparkling sequins.
