  1. Vicky, your designs are always so beautiful and your tutorials are so easy to follow. I love your YT channel so much. Thanks for making such interesting projects for us.

  2. I absolutely love the shape of your card and I also like how it’s embossed of the bottom!! Wonderful card!

  3. Wow! This card is fantastic! It has such a wow factor with the embossing below. Love your work and this set.

  4. Gorgeous card! I love your color combinations and the hint of silver is so perfect. Thanks for another inspiring video too ?!

  5. I love roses and find blue ones gorgeous and unexpected! Very pretty winter card! Could you at some point maybe explain what mixed media ink pads are and why they’re called “mixed media”? Do they do something special? Or is it just that they are a pigment ink? I’m confused and curious about this. Thank you for the video and for sharing this lovely — and unexpected (colors) — card design.

  6. I love that you think outside the box when choosing colors for your cards. Blue roses in the winter seem both unexpected and perfectly appropriate!

  7. Wow! What a stunning card! I love the blue and silver color combination! The embossed image is beautiful!

  8. Beautifully done!!!!! TFS!
    I would really like to see Altenew design an embossing folder that can emboss the actual die cut that has been colored with the stencil and/or stamped for the individual flower(s). It would add sooooo much dimension! Now the embossing folder is a different design so can only be used as a background or separate focal point..

  9. Your card is stunning Vicky! These kits from Altenew are so lovely–and allow you to do projects so many different ways.

  10. Ahh!! Super awesome tutorial, very easy instructions with stunning results! Thank you for the inspiration. It’s extremely versatile and I’m imagining several stamp kits and embossing folders I can use with this technique. Thank you again Vickie.

  11. I just watched your video tutorial and enjoyed seeing both cards created. I absolutely love the contrast of the gorgeous blue cardstock vs the deeply embossed roses white cardstock on the same card, so lovely!!! Your rose is beautifully shaded and colored. You never fail to interest us in what you’re creating, and I look forward to seeing you next month on this Craft Your Life subscription kit.

  12. The thing I love about altenew products and how people use them, is that I was never a fan of large images and I would never step out of my comfort of coloring flowers in ways that I wouldnt see them in nature. Altenew and these amazong artists/designers have changed my mind this year and I am so inspired. I need to color a rose blue.. ? this is very pretty color!
