“The Altenew team is the best Design Team I have ever been on. I have made many friends and I love how Altenew has given me the opportunity to grow my little crafting business. I love all Altenew products but my current favorites are the washi tapes and the layered flower dies. Each product release pushed me to try out new techniques and I love learning new things. I can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

“I started scrapbooking in 2011 and joined the Altenew Scrapbook Design Team in May 2017. What I like most about Altenew is that they are releasing high-quality products every month. The designs are awesome and versatile. I think that Altenew is a cool company because they work hard to help us make the best of our memory keeping adventures.”

“To say I love everything Altenew is an understatement. Their products inspire me every day; the quality of their stamp sets and dies is excellent. The layered floral stamp and die sets are my favorites, particularly the Build-A-Flower Sets and the 3D Die Sets. Thank you, Altenew, for having me! Happy 5th anniversary!”

Happy anniversary Altenew. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us in the next five!!
Congratulations to one of my new favourites!
Another try… I have now been checking my emails daily to see the posts of your products and the beautiful card/scrapbook examples made by your ultra talented people! I look forward to using your gorgeous products for many years to come!!!
While I don’t scrapbook, I always learn so much from your scrapbook design team. You find such interesting creative types. Thanks for these fun bloghops and birthday celebrations!
How wonderful to see all of the ‘Altenew Best’ from everyone in the link up! So many beautiful projects!
This was a fun blog hop. I never get tired of seeing your products. You have, I think, the best florals. I love the layered sets. They always have such a realistic look. Happy Anniversary! I hope you have many more!
Yay? Loving all of the celebrations! I have followed you from before you were even a company through owner personal blogs, and you have never disappointed me with each new release, new type product, and the services you offer. Wishing you many many more years of such wonderful success!
Happy Anniversary, Altenew!!
Congrats on completing 5 years. Wishing you many more years of success. I am really enjoying the amazing hops every day. There is so much great inspiration!
Hapypy 5th anniversary Altenew, 5 years of amazing products have gone by and many more to come.
Congratulations and Happy Anniversary!!! I’ve loved everything you have accomplished and look forward to more!
I always look at the scrap booking blog for inspiration – so many lovely layouts and ideas that can be applied to many different paper crafts. Thank you to the many bloggers who share their talent and to Altenew for their fabulous stamps, dies, papers, tapes (the list goes on)
You guys have an awesome team! Happy 5th anniversary!
Beautiful layouts!! I’m excited to go hop and see what everyone has created today!
Happy birthday Altenew. I started stamping 20 + years ago when my ability to draw did not match up with my desire to create. Altenew has become one of my favorite companies with their beautiful designs that let my art show a whole new level of realism. I would love it if they eventually added some other types of images to their layering stamps, like birds and horses sized to pair with flowers. If I’m going to wish, maybe a dragon (dignified no silly) and a unicorn too. Lol
I haven’t been stamping long but I found Altenew quickly and it became one of my favorite stamping companies. I love all of your stamps and medias. I have your watercolor set, 2 sets of watercolor brushes, some stamps, some embellishments, a set of markers and I’m working on gathering some inks. It’s taking time but I’m trying to collect everything I love from Altenew.
Congratulations and happy anniversary to one of my favorite companies!!
I love how versatile the creations are – so many ideas from a few sets!
Happy Birthday Altenew! i love supporting an American company with my craft dollars! Would love to see dogwoods, nasturtiums and daphne sometime soon.
Congratulations on your anniversary. Your products are the most beautiful. Wishing you growth, success and a lots of sales!
I’m enjoying the celebration!
I must have 50+ sites saved for stamping, card making…your blog, instructions, artists are my favorites….you have convinced me to invest in your quality stamps, and good markers even if it just a few to get started…thanks
Can always depend on Altenew to offer the most detailed and lovely floral stamps. Happy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary to Altenew :)
I know I’m late to the party! I participated on day one & then was away on business!! I wanted to stop back by and say congrats again!!! I love the wonderful posts your design team comes up with. Their colors and perspectives are so inspirational to me. Happy 5th and Happy Spring!!!
I’m not a scraper but I get so many wonderful ideas and inspiration from the Altenew Scrapbook Design Team for mixed media and cardmaking, they never cease to amaze me. Altenew sure knows how to bring together the best products and the best design teams in this industry!! Happy 5th Anniversary Altenew and for this awesome, fun, inspiration fill celebration.
