With the formalities out of the way, let's take a look at what I've created for this release!
First up is this 8.5" x 11" scrapbook page of my darling girl...
Sigh, so super pretty!
Altenew Supplies: Shades of Purple Enamel Dots, Creative Cut Outs: Nested Wreath, Teal Shadow Washi Tape, Summer Garden 6 x 6 Paper Pack, Watercolor 36 Pan Set.
Let's take a closer look at this gorgeous & girly page....
Those Creative Cut Outs: Nested Wreath pieces are errrrrything!!! SO good!
I couldn't resist hand coloring some of them with my Altenew Watercolor 36 Pan Set.
I used shades of blue & teal to coordinate with the Altenew Teal Shadow Washi Tape, and to compliment the background colors in my sweet girl's photograph. I used the smallest wreath as a frame for my photo, which I then backed with a fussy cut floral from the Summer Garden 6 x 6 Paper Pack. I cut apart one of the larger wreath pieces to create the appearance of a vine, travelling down my page. For finishing touches I added a sprinkling of the Shades of Purple Enamel Dots - so pretty!
Ga, ga, gor-jus!!!
Here's another memory keeper's delight featuring the new Celebrate scrapbook collection...
Oh how beautiful!
Altenew Supplies: Creative Cut Outs: Nested Wreath, The Alphabet Stencil, Warm & Cozy Enamel Dots, Tropical Forest Enamel Dots, & Celebrate Scrapbook Collection.
Let's take a closer look....
Those fussy cut florals combined with the Nested Wreath pieces are just too lovely for words!!!
I used The Alphabet Stencil & a white gel pen to create those sweet XO's - so simple, & so effective!
The Warm & Cozy Enamel Dots adorn the wreaths beautifully, and I used the Tropical Forest Enamel Dots to accent my treasured photo! Perfect!
Time to share a couple clean & simple cards!
First is this soft and sweet number....
So delicate and divine!
Altenew Supplies: Creative Cut Outs: Nested Wreath, Geometric Landscape Stencil, Shades of Purple Enamel Dots, Celebrate Scrapbook Collection.
Beautiful card creating made super quick & easy with the Geometric Landscape Stencil!
My second card is a lil inky fun....
La la LOVE this!!!
Altenew Supplies: Creative Cut Outs: Nested Wreath, Trellis Stencil, Warm & Cozy Enamel Dots, & Deep Blue Seas Mini Ink Cube Set.
That Trellis Stencil is just superb! I inked mine up with the Deep Blue Seas Mini Ink Cubes to create a striking background for my card. So stunning!
