These cards are so inspirational! I want to use pieces of these designs in some sort of way. Thanks for sharing!
this was the first complete year I followed Altenew. Amazed every month that a new release is so nice and various again. so much inspiration and examples of talented fellow crafters. For sure Altenew is now my number one brand. I am serious. Love it. thanks Hisca
An amazing array of fabulous cards from which to draw inspiration. Thanks for sharing!
What a great idea to share the best of 2018. Love your products and your team. Happy 2019, may it be as inspired as 2018 was.
I discovered your company only this year, thanks to an Instagram post by Nadine Borys. Her watercolor techniques caught my eye and drew me to your stamps. My favorite may be her card for your Anemone Build-a-Flower release.
Wowww!! These ladies are so talented!
I see some florals I can use! Glad I bought some new inks on the last sale.
Norine Borys’ cards are just my style (but she’s so much better!).
I’ve seen so many beautiful projects! How do you pick a favorite? Looking forward to seeing what everyone picks.
Thank you Altenew for making my craft room a fun place to be. I love all your layering stamp sets, and your wonderful inks and dies. I’m getting quite a collection. Here’s wishing you a wonderful 2019.
Great products, great inspiration!
Such an array of inspiration!! I love Altenew products and I love seeing what the design team and guests create.
Your company is awesome and so is all this inspiration:)
I love Altenew products. I get a lot of inspiration from the blogs.
I love Altenew’s classic and timeless style. And this year, you came out with so many new and wonderful products! My Visa card was busy on the Altenew site in 2018! :-)
Amazing cards!!
Love love the new inspirations I learned from you! Thank you for sharing your creativity!
This has truly been a year of amazing products from Altenew and wonderful inspiration from all the designers. It never ceases to amaze me how one product can be used in so many and different ways! Thank you Altenew!
I am new to altenew products. I am so excited to see the inspiring ideas. The products are of incredible quality.
Thank you
Thank you
I absolutely love Altenews stamps and dies. The fine alphabet die set card with the circles I’d have to say is my favorite because I love geometric shapes because they are gender neutral and can be used with any sentiment. Also, the fact that it’s a hello card which is my way of sending a personalized greeting to the ones I love at any given time; they appreciate received them as much as I love making them. I’m on a really tight budget and It would help me immensely if I were to receive a gift certificate. I have 3 products already on my wish list.
I love the inspiration that these ladies give us. Thank you for sharing so much creativity..
Wonderful posts all year long…thank you so much for sharing throughout 2018 – Looking forward to 2019 posts! I have 4 pizza boxes full of Altenew stamps and dies…I am sure I will need to add another pizza box soon – LOL!!!!
