Card Tutorial
Now, it's time for an exciting card tutorial! Today, I have 2 cards to share with you featuring two of the new dies.
First, I started with the Featured Sentiments Die Set.
I coordinated it with the Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp Set to create a repeated sentiment background.
Then, I added the Happy Birthday Die with a sub-sentiment from the Hello and Hugs Stamp Set.
My second card has an ombre-style background created with the Stacked Diamonds Cover Die.
I added some Wallpaper Art blooms.
Then, I added an embossed sentiment from the Paint-A-Flower: Anemone Stamp Set which I die cut using one of the Featured Sentiments dies.
You can see my video here or watch it in HD at YouTube.

The mixed leaf dies are all so unique, intricate and gorgeous! I love the versatility they provide, and the colors used in the examples above 😍
I really like the leaves. What a pretty and unique bunch of dies. The layered Geo Cover dies are my favorite though! They remind me of the Spirograph we used when I was a kid. They are so cool and geometric!
Mesmerizing dies!! Each of them are beautiful in it’s own way.
Love the layering dies and the leaves.
Therese your cards are gorgeous! I think this die release is my favorite from Altenew.
Awesome dies! Love them all but I am very excited for the frame and stars! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow! I love these dies! Can’t wait to see the rest of the inspiration!
Love the two toned background behind the flowers.

Great looking new dies can’t wait to get my hands on the burlap one and all those leaves.
These stand alone dies look fabulous!! I can’t wait to see what the designers have done with them.
Another amazing release! I particularly love the leaves, burlap, and frame. That said I really like everything and the design team once again did a fantastic job of showing the versatility of these projects.
Love all the new dies especially the background dies and the leaves!
Great release! And these two cards are wonderful. How did you line up all those sentiments so perfectly. They look so great and the colors are wonderful.
These dies are awesome! Love the Featured Sentiments die set.
I really love all of these dies! They add such interesting dimensions to the cards!
Wow gorgeous cards!! Just love those new dies-can’t have enough dies!
What a lovely “topic” for a die release. The dies themselves are extraordinary, and the inspiration is stunning. Fabulous cards, Therese.
This is a really nice release So many different uses for the dies. I several I would like to have.
I like the leaf dies! So many possibilities. I also like the stacked diamonds background die.
Always love your cards, Therese! The color blending is so lovely, and perfect for this new die! Love that you just left the Wallpaper flowers in black and white—perfect contrast to the soft blues and greens!
Wow! This release is one of my favourite releases! I love absolutely everything in this release, and already have several items in my cart!
All the projects are gorgeous! And the new release is amazing! I really love the 3D stars and the leaf dies. The new cover dies are also beautiful!
This release looks great. Love all the dies here.
I love dies – the burlap, leaf mix and simple nesting flowers are on my wish list
The stand alone are so exciting! Ideas started flooding in as soon as you see them. Ya, the mixed leaves and the waffle, tee hee okay burlap, and celebration loopies…top 3 dies for sure. These are fantastic Altenew. The designers team is going to have a blast with these….us too!
Interesting sets for the release. Looking forward to the projects.
Love these new dies! The Stacked Diamonds and the Leaf dies are my favorite! Can’t wait to order them.
I just love seeing your DT create. It really is something else. I think this time I’m most intrigued by the leaf dies. I just love how they look amazing in every color palette and design. But then, I love a good geometric pattern, and these are great, so maybe those are my favorite.
Absolutely adore these new dies, especially the Mixed leaf set & the Art Deco style Stacked Diamonds background. Would love to try those leaves with a background of a matte cardstock & a foil card decorative Leaf topper or vice versa.
These dies are great. Definitely want a lot of them – the leaf dies and the burlap will be the first ones I buy
Intriguing cards-love the Happy Birthday with all the sentiment strips. I also think the ombre background stamp offers a lot of different card options. Thanks for sharing.
How could you go wrong with a new release. I love background cutting dies.
AMAZING die release, those MIXED LEAVES die set is my fave and the stacked diamonds too …. oh so many go to the top of my wishlist! These dies are perfect for so many different styles of cards!
WOWZA! WOWZA! WOWZA! Altenew and Therese you’ve done it again!!! Texture, color and composition are the top three elements of design that attract me like none other! WOWZA! What a spectacular release!
What a great release. I love the leaf dies, the frame, the cover dies, and more. Wow!
Great release! Especially loving that burlap grid and those leaves!
Wonderful variety of dies. Off to hop.
Great release!
Therese, I really like this color combo,particularly on the first card with the repeat sentiments. This new sentiment die with rounded corners is a great addition to the line, and you showcased it beautifully !
