Good morning! This week we are celebrating our 6th anniversary with an incredible blog hop!
When I write the anniversary post each year, it always gets me thinking about year one. How could it not? I'm not yet a parent, but I imagine people with children also look back fondly each year as their child gets older. The good times, the struggles, and everything in between – they all helped shape the growth of the individual. Isn't that true for a company as well?
The people around them also contribute to shape who they will become, and for Altenew, that's you! I want to give a special shout-out to everyone who has been with us from the start. Thank you for believing in us, our designs, and our company! We truly value every one of you, from our very first customers and fans to people who may have just discovered our company today (hello and welcome to Altenew! 
)
In light of recent events, we would like to share our thoughts on giving back to the community and helping one another in this difficult time. Please watch the video below or over on YouTube.
We have a fantastic lineup of guests who are celebrating with us and I can’t wait for you to see what they created. Before you start hopping, let’s take a look at some of our most notable milestones, statistics, and more…

Happy Birthday! I can’t believe it’s been 6 years! I remember that first release so well, and it’s only gotten better since!
Hi from Wauwatosa Wisconsin. Happy birthday!
This is so wonderful of you! I’m so excited!
Congratulations Altenew – I cannot believe it has only been 6 years – you have such an incredible presence in my crafting life. I am one of your Canadian customers, and also a nurse too. We are all going through this globally and I am thankful that your company has such a strong community spirit – even though we have to stay apart, we still need to support each other – in our own small communities and as part of the global community. Thank you for demonstrating that. Thank you also, because I know that I need my hobbies, including paper crafting and mixed media, to help me cope with my own fears and stress.
Here’s looking forward to the end of this pandemic, and a brighter and more colourful future to all.
