Dreams Come True May 2022 Stamp Collection
Cascading Floral Bouquet Card
Wispy Joy Stamp and Die Bundle was released earlier this month as an Altenew Mobile App Exclusive. I love these little floral motifs for full floral frames to help showcase sentiment banners. I’m excited to try arranging these florals on a slimline card next.
How to Make This Card
- Start with a heavy weight white cardstock panel. Stamp the outline images in Wispy Joy in Permanent Black Crisp Ink.
- Stamp and layer the coordinating images to the flowers and leaves. I used the following ink families:
- Stamp a birthday sentiment from Just A Number Stamp Set in black ink and rectangular cut.
- Die cut the stamped flowers. Use an Altenew Artist Marker to color the white margins around the black outline to match the colored background cardstock
- Arrange and use Instant Dimension Foam Tape to raise flowers and sentiment.
- Finish card with Pure White and Jet Black Ink Spray splatters.

All Tea with Some Shade Card
The Tea Time Stamp Set is a well loved Altenew Stamp Set. I have always loved the loose illustration style that is playful and yet modern. This stamp set now as a coordinating simple coloring stencil for easy coloring and pairing with your Mini Ink Blending Brushes.
How to Make This Card
- Stamp the outline images of the leaves and foliage in colors from Nature’s Wonders.
- Stamp the tea outline images in colors from Martian Terrain.
- Use the Tea Time Layering Stencil to color the outline stamped images.
- Use the coordinating Tea Time Dies to cut the images.
- Make a washi tape by repeat stamping the cascading leaf image in Tea Time Stamp Set, use the stencil to color the image.
- Use a paper trimmer to cut the tape in a straight line, then rip the tape for a deckled edge.
- Arrange the images on top of a panel of Spicy Yogurt Cardstock.
- Embellish the card with Essential Black Heart Enamel Dots.

Linear rAinbow Card
This All Things A Stamp Set makes an instant statement on any card. The outline image is perfect for coloring and now this stamp set *also* has a coordinating All Things A Simple Coloring Stencil. Now I can quickly color in every detail in this stamp set.
How to Make This Card
- Gold emboss the All Things A image onto white cardstock.
- Use the All Things A Simple Coloring Stencil to ink blend a rainbow of colors. Leave the background layer uncolored.
- Fussy cut the finished ink blended ‘A.’
- Stamp one of the coordinating sentiments and rectangular cut.
- Dry emboss the Fragrant Florals Embossing Folder onto white cardstock.
- Arrange all the elements on top of the dry embossed panel.

The Loneliest Cat Card
Nearly every morning as I get ready for work I am greeted with the scene of my older boy cat looking out the window from behind the floor length curtains. Once I got my hands on the Folded Drapes 3D Embossing Folder, I knew I had to create this scene.
How to Make This Card
- Ink the text side of the Folded Drapes Embossing Folder in Warm Gray Ink. Layer the ink until enough shaded depth is achieved.
- Use Warm Gray Altenew Artist Markers to shade the finer details like the curtain rings and rod.
- Stamp and layer the Cat Life Stamp Set images in the same Warm Gray Ink.
- Ink blend a floor by using Satin Masking Tape and ink blending Warm Gray Ink.
