I love the bouquet and that it has one die to cut the design. it's a perfect Spring card and can be a get well card bouquet. I cut out the design and then stencil colored. I realize now after watching the video that it is easier to stencil the design and then die cut it. Altenew has designs that can be used in so many different ways, it makes their stamp sets triple in value.
I loved this when I first saw it, but held off on getting. I am very glad to have it in my crafting stash even though I have found it a bit challenging. I am determined not to give up.
This set caught my eye since I like wildflower designs. It's so simple! As always, the Altenew guide is very appreciated! Also, I'm glad there was a video that came up on my search because it was very helpful on using the stencils which are mire complex than others I have used. It requires turning the stencil to capture different areas. A bit trickier to use but efficient design.
I actually had to invest in preparation to use this stencil - I had to study the guide, study the stencils, and then do a practice design before actually doing one for a card. I understand that Altenew tried to make these stencils easy to use by etching information to help us line up the stencils, but I still found it confusing. In the end I realized that I had to die cut the design and then line up the stencils, and that made it much easier. The final product is very pretty but I don't usually have to work so hard with stencils. It's also really important to mask off areas you don't want colored when using this stencil set. Many of Altenew's offerings include videos; this one could have used a video!
Admittedly, my vision is not the best, but I found this set to be challenging. I could not see the lines separating the difference parts of the stencil so my first attempt was a disaster. The third try was acceptable. It does make a lovely bouquet. I wound up cutting with the die, then lining up the stencil
