I had so much fun with this new release! As soon as I saw the Precious Doodles Stamp Set I knew it would be perfect for the Jacob’s Coat technique and I am preparing a video to show you how to do it yourself.

There will be a video hop coming out soon so keep an eye out for it!

This next card used the new Arch of Flowers stamp, die and stencil set. It gave me the opportunity to put my style on it by doing some of my own doodling. If you haven’t ever had a go at adding to a stamp set don’t be afraid to give it a go!

I used Altenew’s black fine liner pen.

My next card used Altenew’s Linear Spiral background stamp on Altenew watercolor paper and embossed with white embossing powder. I also used Altenew’s Watercolor Brush Markers (Spring Garden Set) and made a rainbow with them using them full strength on one edge and blending them out with water to fill each segment.

The sentiments are from One-Go Birthday Greetings which is a very useful one to have in your stash, along with the die 😀. I stacked up my sentiments and then painted, with the watercolors that I used on the card front, offsetting them just slightly.

I could see so many possibilities for this background that I had to have another go at showcasing it. This time I simply colored in every second line to create a simple black and white card which makes a great base for masculine cards.

My next 2 projects use Altenew’s Intricate Mandala Stencil and Well-Read Sentiment Stamp Set

The Well-Read Sentiment Stamp Set was perfect to pair with Tall Tale Bookmark Die and will make great gifts for your book loving friends.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Your next stop is the very talented Svitlana Shayevich. I have also attached the entire blog hop addresses for you, in case you missed the start.

Don’t forget to leave a comment so that you can be in the running for some of the great prizes that Altenew has up for grabs.

Until next time, keep crafting!
