Mixed Media Card Celebrating Rubeena's Crafting Anniversary - Blog Hop


Hi Everyone!

Welcome to Day 2 of Rubeena's Craftversary Blog Hop! If you are taking part in the hop, you have come to my blog via the very talented Cheiron Brandon's Blog! I am so delighted to join over 70 guest designers to celebrate friendship and our wonderful crafting industry through which I have had the honour of making some very special friends :)

I've made a mixed media card using products by Altenew and Wow Embossing Powder and I've made a video with a voiceover on how I made it:



Here's a close up of all that textured gorgeousness! How beautiful is that Gold Rich Ultra High Wow Embossing Powder? 

  
I made a stencil using Altenew's Cube Cover Die which I adore:


I used Altenew's Script Words Die for the "love" sentiment and the heat embossed sentiment is from Altenew's Crafty Friends Stamp Set and I used Opaque Bright White Embossing Powder in Superfine by Wow:



Thank you so much for watching!


This hop is epic with more than 70 guests and over $1,000 in sponsored prizes! Not only are we celebrating four years since Rubeena first discovered cardmaking but also crafting in general. This industry is made up of wonderful individuals who are creative, inspirational, kind, and incredibly supportive! Hop along so you can learn about why we create and how much joy it brings us!
