Free Altenew Build a Rose Stamp

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I hope you have had a chance to enjoy the lovely weather this week. I have certainly enjoyed being out and about in the sun.

The card I am sharing today is one that was made with the free gift from Simply Cards and Papercraft issue 149. It is the Altenew Build a Rose stamp and die set. Ever since I saw these stamps released in January I have been wanting to have a try with them and the gift gave me the perfect opportunity.


I had great fun creating the roses I had a try with different types of ink, The pink roses were stamped with Distress ink and the yellow and red ones with Adirondack inks. The leaves were created in the same way.  You can see in the background I have used my favourite heart lattice embossing folder. 


I made so many roses it was easy to create the wreath. I did get better with the stamps as I went along. 


The sentiment was in the set too. I stamped it on to one of Sue Wilson's pierced flags.  


I enjoyed using these stamps I will be using them again and I will be looking out for some more. I have also taken out a subscription to Simply Cards and Papercraft magazine because I enjoyed reading it so much. 

Enjoy the rest of the week. 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie
