Beautiful inks

This is my first set of alternate inks. However, will certainly not be my last. They are nice and juicy. A delight to use.

Incredible Bundle

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I ordered this card making bundle. I’m so glad I tried it. I’m new to Altenew and card making. This class broke everything down in easy to follow steps. I felt like a pro when I was done! Also, the stamp wheel is AMAZING.

A2 Card base

These card bases appear to be of goo quality and look forward to using them. The white in them actually matches the white in the lighter weight paper I use for the rest of the card.
