Altenew has knocked it out of the park this year. It is way to hard to have to pick and choose. Everything is wonderful especially the beautiful flowers and matching dies. Looking forward to the new year.

I do have several favorites only because I keep a list to look for when I have $!!! Hehehe I really like the BAF sets Morning GLory, Carnation and Aster. The leaf canopy adds sooo much to the background of a card and can be used with just a sentiment! My others are Hand picked Bouquet, Dandelion, Beautiful Heart Flower Vine and the wonderful Main Squeeze!! I was so excited to add to my collection with some of these and hoping to add the rest as cash allows :}

It boggles my mind how young a company Altenew is – considering what a huge impact it has had with some truly outstanding designs. The layered florals are without comparison, and this has been a stellar year – I loved the new sweet pea set, the leaf canopy, and the dandelion wishes, and am looking forward to adding more to my collection, including the nature snippets.
