Hello and welcome to Altenew October 2017 Release Blog Hop. We are releasing new embossing powders and Scrapbook Collection!
You probably came from Terhi Koskinen blog. If not – you may consider starting from the beginning at Altenew Scrapbook Blog and see what other members of Altenew design team and guest designers sharing. And as always you have a chance to win a prize.
EMBOSSING POWDERS
If you like embossing new Altenew embossing powders is something you may want to check out. There are tree metallic colors: Platinum, Copper and Rose Gold as well as three color: Caribbean Sky, Razzleberry and Fluorescent Green.
I made two cards using new amazing embossing powders.
FAUX ENAMEL EMBELLISHMENTS
I’m totally in love with new Platimun Embossing Powder. It had this kind of light vintage and noble shade, perfect to elegant or luxurious cards.
To start off I die-cut a Leafy Garland and cut it in two pieces. And heat embossed 4 layers of Platimun Embossing Powder on each. I was simply inking the whole die-cut with Embossing Ink and covered with the powder. Using several layers of powders turned paper die-cuts into faux enamel embellishments.
I did the same with the word congrats from Script Words Die Set.
I cut a panel out of Navy cardstock and sprinkled it with water using Distress Sprayer, added embossing powder right away and heat set it.
I adhered my platinum embellishments onto the panel and foam mounted it onto a Pale Gray card base.
MONOCHROMATIC RAZZLEBERRY
For my second card I used very beautiful and juicy Razzleberry Embossing Powder.
First onto a white panel I heat embossed Wood Pallet Background using this powder and inked it over using Razzleberry ink. I like the tone on tone look these two created.
Next I adhered the panel onto a white card base.
I stamped and die-cut floral elements using Golden Garden Stamp and Die Sets. Along with stamping and die-cutting the sentiment using Halftone Hearts Stamp and Die Sets.
I adhered all florals and the sentiment onto the panel and called it a card 🙂
