Hello crafty friends! Today we are celebrating an amazing new release of stencils and ink sprays by Altenew. I really love the Altenew ink sprays so I’m really thrilled that we are finally get some new colors in this line.
Make sure to read all the way through for all the giveaway details and of course visit the Altenew Card Blog.
So for this blog hop, I created a couple of cards using my favorite products from this release.
The first card I created is featuring two amazing stencils, Flowing Butterfly and Sunburst. First, I used some blue ink shades to create a soft background with the Sunburst Stencil. Then I sprayed some Mountain Mist and Lagoon ink sprays though the Flowing Butterfly and fussy cut around the designs to create a big layered focal element.
My second card is a really simple and easy design that makes the stencil pattern shine. I used the Beveled Squares Stencil to create an ink blended ombre background. I lightly misted the background with water to make the ink bleed around a little bit and create a more messy impression of the design. Then I die-cut the word “you” using the Mega You die and backed the opening with a dark purple piece of paper.
My third and last card is using the leftover “you” piece from the card above. This time I worked on a blank base and I created a slightly messy background with some ink splatters from the new Altenew Ink Spray colors. To make my “you” die-cut stand out better, I went over it with a light coat of Cosmic Berry Crisp Dye Ink.
I had so much fun playing with these product! They are so beautiful and versatile, the possibilities are truly endless. Make sure to check the full release on the Altenew website cause there are many more products that I didn’t show you in these cards but I’m definitely planning to use in the future.

I think I like the flowing leaves and sunburst stencils the best from this release. I can see a variety of uses for them in my card making and mixed media projects. I like stencils that are versatile and hope I get a chance to try them out soon.
Wonderful cards! Great techniques with the new stencils and love all the bright colors.
Amazing work!!! The use of the stencils was so fun and vibrant!!!!
I love the heart and butterfly stencils. I’d definitely fussy cut them to use in scrapbook layouts.
Amazing! Love the colors!
Totally in Love with these
whoa! You made those words POP right up on your cards! Nicely done!
I like how you layered the butterfly over the other stenciled design. So pretty!
Hi Zinia! (Great name btw) I’m loving the sunburst stencil and would love to use any of the spray inks. This whole release looks awesome and I’d love to get some of it. Any of it. All of it lol
your cards are beautiful. I really like that you used the stencil on the word die cuts. Thanks for sharing.
I love the simplicity of the You Rock card.
Lovely projects.
There are so many great stencils in this new release – I love the heart one, the feathered leaves and the starburst. I haven’t any of the sprays yet, but it would be fun to use them to make lots of backgrounds to have on hand. Love your creations!!
I love your cards. I’m excited about the mandala stencil and can imagine using it on a scarpbook layout.
Such an interesting butterfly project. It is a very handsome card.
Wow, gorgeous cards, I would love to make pretty backgrounds like you did! My favorite is the Feathered Leaves stencil, I love the organic look of this one and it’s different from anything I have. Thanks for sharing your amazing stencil and ink spray projects.

Lovely cards! Beautiful take on the stencils 🙂
I think the You Rock card is my fave….simple but vivid. Cant wait to get messy with this new release! Altenew never disappoints.
Your cards are so pretty!! Love your style !!
Stunning cards. I love that you used the ink spray right through the stencils. This is the way I would use it. If I wanted to color I would use markers or watercolors. Thanks for the inspiration.
Love your cards! I can’t wait to get some of these stencils. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
These new inks and stencils are great and you did a wonderful job of showcasing the products. Your butterfly card is beautiful, but I am in awe of the next two.i love them!
I just love how you made two cards out of one background sheet. So practical and fun! And beautiful, too! Thanks for the inspiration!
Great ideas and very pretty.
Fun fresh way to use the Butterfly stencils. I think they may be my next purchase.
Beautiful cards, especially love the butterfly card and background.
WoW! These are all so beautiful! I can’t even begin to choose a favourite. You’ve done it again Altenew. And these cards are simply beautiful!
Beautiful ideas!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
This butterfly card is so creative. Love all these cards .
Beautiful designs.
Such pretty and fun cards! Love the playfulness of the you rock card in particular.
These are really lovely, Zinia, all of them! I really love the “square” stencils – both of them are fab. I mostly use my stencils with glitter pastes or embossing pastes, but it’s also fun to ink blend over them, or dry emboss with them…. Ah, the possibilities are nearly endless!
What great cards especially the butterfly.
Love these cards! The way you used the butterfly and sunburst stencils in the first card, it looks like they were designed to be used together.
Beautiful cards – I find the You Amaze Me card very appealing with the tone on tone look – really draws attention to the pattern.
The butterfly stencil and the sunburst stencil really go together beautifully! My favorite card, however is the ‘You rock’. I love the die cut and stamped combo for the sentiment!
Great cards to showcase the new products and as I love stencils will be trying these new ones out.
Flowing Butterfly and Sunburst together…what a lovely combination! These new stencils will be a great new design tool.
I would like to try the butterfly stencil to emboss than watercolor, layering one on top of other. Thanks for sharing your great designs.
I love the “double goodness” of die cutting a focal word from interesting paper, then using the negative and positive to make two cards!
Love the positive and negative to make two cards!
Gorgeous cards. I love your butterfly card.
What fun! Thank you for the lovely inspiration and the giveaways!!
Your butterfly card is marvelous!! I love the color!! The stencils are so much fun!!
I loved all three cards! You have an excellent ability to use color. I especially
liked the “you” you made using the stencil. Great idea.
Simply stunning projects!
Fantastic cards! I love your you rock and you amaze me cards! I really can’t pick one stencil – they are amazing! I’m looking forward to trying them on layouts and to try texture paste with them as I haven’t tried that technique yet.
Fabulous cards. I like the layered butterfly.
Thanks for sharing these lovely cards using some really cool new stencils!
Charming projects! Now I want some ink spray too!!
Your cards are soothing and wild at the same time
I absolutely loved be that butterfly card! It looks gorgeous against that background! Your other cards look great too. Thanks for the inspiration!
I am loving these new stencils! The Beveled Square might be my favorite, love the color you chose for that card!
lovely use of the stencils. And the sprays make such beautiful backgrounds
Really cool cards! I love the dimension on your butterfly card!
I love a good two-fer technique, so the double cards you made make me very happy. It helps that the colors are so lush. Thanks for sharing these fun ideas; I’m really into stencils recently, so I’m very much enjoying this hop!
Great cards! Love how you used the sprays. I think I like the butterfly stencil. I’d like to use it with the sprays. I don’t have any yet so haven’t had that experience yet. Thanks!

Love your cards. I always need reminders to use stencils.
Love these colors and backgrounds! Great stencils and mists!
well, I might have to break down and buy some mists. the colors seem extra vibrant in mist form.
I am most excited about the new Altenew Ink Spray colors. To honestly about all of it I am new to the arts and crafts scene but am excited and willing to learn new things! By the way, Merry Christmas and I hope everyone has a good holiday!!
Beautiful cards…
Gorgeous, vibrant, pretty, think your two ‘ you’re cards day it all for me, you rock & you are amazing !
Beautiful pages. Love the colors and the stencils are amazing — can’t decide which one I love the most!
I love the butterfly with the sunburst background. The colors are beautiful together!
Very cool cards, I love that you used the “you” in both positive and negative (I love double dipping lol). Thanks for sharing and the inspiration.
