April 2022 Spring Garden Release
Bountiful Bouquet 8th Anniversary Stamp Set
In addition to the Spring Garden Full Release Bundle seen above, Altenew also released a HUGE layering floral stamp set called Bountiful Bouquet Stamp and Die Bundle. This is an 8.5X11″ letter sized stamp set with layering images and a coordinating die. You can easily fill an entire A2 sized card front with this beautiful image.
How To Make This Card
- Heat emboss the outline image in Bountiful Bouquet Stamp Set in a gold embossing powder.
- Layer and stamp the coordinating images to the outline. I used a select mix of Altenew Crisp Inks.
- Cut the die cut bouquet in half between the two flower images.
- White heat emboss the ‘You’ sentiment from Endless Florescence Stamp Set. White heat emboss the ‘make life beautiful’ sentiment from Bountiful Bouquet Stamp Set.
- Add a mirror gold border to the sentiment box. Embellish the card with Pure White Ink splatters.

Prism & Opalescent Chevron Foil Card
I featured two NEW beautiful crafting items on this card: Chevon Background Hot Foil Plate & Wonderfully Made Die. Together with a rainbow color scheme, this made for a quick and simple card for any occasion.
How To Make This Foiled Card
- Start with an A2 rainbow ink blended background. I used a select mix of my Altenew Crisp Ink collection.
- Use opalescent foil and the Chevon Background Hot Foil Plate to add shine to your ink blended panel.
- Die cut the Wonderfully Made Die sentiment from white cardstock. Stack and adhere to the middle of your opalescent foiled background.
- Embellish the card with enamel dots.

Ornate Window Rainbow Card
You are going to see a running theme throughout this entire Spring Bouquet Release. For this second card, I complemented the Ornate Door Die with another rainbow palette.
How To Make This Card
- Start with a vertically rainbow ink blended panel of white cardstock. I used the same mix of Altenew Crisp Inks as the previous card.
- Die cut and stack the Ornate Door Die from white cardstock. Adhere this chipboard-like element to the center of the rainbow panel.
- Die cut and stack the Handwritten Hello Die to finish this very simple card.

Simple Scene Rainbow Card
My final card features another rainbow. I love the minimalist result of this die cut card featuring the Lacy Doily Die and Itty Bitty Branches Die Set.
How To Make This Card
- Ink blend a rainbow circle onto the center of a white A2 panel.
- Die cut the Lacy Doily from white cardstock. Die cut two of the Itty Bitty Branches from gold mirror cardstock.
- Use an enamel based adhesive to glue down the die cuts to the rainbow blended background panel. Apply adhesive sparingly to ensure the paper curls for some dimension.
- Embellish with a die cut sentiment from Craft Your Life Project Kit: Dynamic Blossoms and Essential White Enamel Dots.
