Altenew Build a Garden Kit November 2025 | Hellebore Haven

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Altenew



Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size 8.8 x 13.2cm (3 1/2 x 5 3/16) 
 
I finally pulled out my Altenew Sticky Mat .... why did I leave it soo long?? Probably due to the sale of the house and move. Let's blame that! I mean the stencil is only slightly larger than the mat but it was really helpful!
 
After embossing the Peacock cardstock with the beautiful Cross Weaves folder I gently swiped the Aged Brass Wax over the top. Go light handed as you can always add but can't remove so well. I added over so softly some of the wax to the centre of the flowers but very very lightly. 
 
I positioned the Hellebore at the top and trimmed off any overflowing flowers and tucked them under the top image. The top image is doubled over foam and the next are either single or glued flat.
 
Because I was un-wanting to get out of my chair ( I am really low at the moment in vitamin D so energy is low, I have started tablets so I will be up and running soon!) and find my gold cardstock I used versamark and gold embossing powder on white cardstock, dipping it 2 times so it was nice and thick.

Bandaids Anyone??

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from a Destash that I got, so I am not sure where it is from but the sentiment is Heffy Doodle.

A friend of mine recently had an operation , so this card is going to her. 

 

 

I decided to still use the die as you can easily make a similar card without the die at all. In the video I show you how to make a bandaid/ plaster ( for my American friends) without the die

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size 9.7 x 14.1cm (3 9/16 x 5 5/16) 

 
Product List Below 
 
Bandaid Die (Plaster Die)
 
Stampin Up Cardstock
Calypso Coral 
Coastal Cabana 
Marina Mist
 
1" x 1" Chipboard - doesn't need to be thick so you could use a cereal packet and you can alter this to fit your cardstock.
 
Versafine Clair Morning Mist Ink
Clear Confetti

Hero Arts March 2025 Kit Card | Hello | Rub On

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Hero Arts March Kit. I have been trying to play more with Kits, as a lot were used due to the house sale and all the stress with that.

 


Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 
Feature Panel Size  8.7 x 12.9cm (3 3/8 x 5 1/16) 

My entire main panel is made up of rub ons. In order to not waste the bows I cut the panel down and then estimated how make of the rub I needed for certain areas. Then those cut pieces were used in other areas.
 
The "hello" sentiment has 3 more die cut hello shapes underneath to give it a little bit of lift. I like this, I just feel it is more supported but foam dots work just fine.
