I am and probably always be on Team Dog but I do like cats. And there are lots of funny cat-centric things that catch my eye. So how many cats does it take to be a "crazy cat lady"? And how many yards of fabric does each cat represent? Because I've been working on a few maybe-future-probably-next-month projects, I seem to be in a questioning mood. I think it's partly my nature... uh oh, aren't cats supposed to be curious? It's also Friday and that's supposed to be fun and perhaps a bit frivolous. So we're going to be a bit "fluffy" today - Fluffy...

Hello there, I'm delighted to be joining Altenew today for the December 2023 release. There are lots of ink pads releasing today plus the December 2023 subscription products, new pouches and gouache. I have a lot to share today, so I hope you will grab a drink and snack and enjoy the inspiration. PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure. For my first card, I used the Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Calla Lily Layering Die Set. The dies were cut from white cardstock and ink blended using Altenew Rock Collection Fresh Dye Inks (Limestone), Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks (Chamomile and Sunray) and Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks (all four shades). The leaves and stems were adhered first to a US A2 sized white card base with liquid glue, followed by the flower heads using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. The sentiment from the Altenew Soft Blossoms Stamp Set was stamped onto black cardstock using Altenew Embossing Ink. I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip and adhered to the card with more foam tape. To finish off, I added Raindrops embellishments. My next card uses the Altenew Dynamic Duo: Dainty Roses stamp and stencil combo. I started off stencilling the roses and leaves onto a panel of white cardstock using Altenew Enchanted Garden Crisp Dye Inks and Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks. I then took the stamp set and stamped the line detail onto the image using Altenew Obsidian Pigment Ink. The panel was adhered to a US A2 sized white card base using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. The sentiment was stamped onto black cardstock using Altenew Embossing Ink. I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder and heat set. It was into a strip and adhered to the card with more foam tape. To finish off, I embellished with Raindrops. My next card uses the new Altenew Sugarplums Fresh Dye Inks. I die cut the Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Open Peony Layering Die Set from white cardstock and added ink blending to the petals with the Sugarplums inks (all four shades). The flower centre was blended with Altenew Fall Harvest Crisp Dye Inks and the leaves with Altenew Rock Collection Fresh Dye Inks. The flower was assembled using liquid glue. I adhered the leaves first to a US A2 sized white card base, followed by the flower. The sentiment from the Altenew Soft Blossoms Stamp Set was stamped and heat embossed onto black cardstock and cut into a strip. It was adhered to the card with more foam tape. To finish off, I added Bubbles embellishments. My next card uses the new Altenew Glacier Caves Fresh Dye Inks. I die cut the Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Garden Rose Layering Die Set from white cardstock. Using an Altenew Mini Blending Brush, I blended Glacier Caves inks on top for the petals, Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks for the centre and Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks for the leaves. I adhered the leaves first onto a US A2 sized white card base with liquid glue. The flowers were then adhered on top using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. The sentiment from the Altenew Soft Blossoms Stamp Set was stamped and heat embossed onto black cardstock and cut into a strip. It was adhered to the card with more foam tape. To finish, I embellished with Bubbles. My last card for today uses Altenew Spark Joy: Ornamental Bouquet. I foiled the hot foil plate onto white cardstock using Altenew Brushed Gold Hot Foil. I then used the stencil set to colour the image using ink blending. I used the new Altenew Dried Petals Fresh Dye Inks for the pink flower. I used Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Inks for the smaller flowers and then Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks for the leaves. I fussy cut it out using scissors (but there is an add-on die available). I then took a 3.75" x 5.5" card base and splattered on the new Altenew Carbon Black Artists' Gouache. Once dry, the image was adhered on top with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. The sentiment from the Altenew Essential Sentiments Hot Foil Plate Set was foiled, cut into a strip and adhered to the card. Also releasing this month are new Dreaming in Watercolor Zipper Pouches. These are so pretty! There is a large and small (pocket) size and can be used for lots of different things. The larger pouch is perfect for holding Altenew stamps, dies and products. Perfect for a project bag, if you want to keep everything together. I think I might use the smaller one as a pouch to take items to my sofa if I want to do some sketching or planning. It's a good size to hold a little sketchbook, washi tape, pens and markers. BLOG HOP: This blog post is part of a fun, inspirational blog hop with prizes.
