Hello from Florida and thank you for sharing your beautiful embossed cards. They are stunning. The light blue on the white background really stands out. I love Altenew and am happy to celebrate their 10th anniversary with you all.
Hi Laurie. I am from Greensboro, NC. Wow! It amazing how your can make the same card 2 ways. I am always partial to dark cardsock backgrounds, but these two cards are stunning. The spatter and the Enamel dots really stand out on each card. I have been with Altenew 2 yrs, but I am so happy to Celebrate their 10th with everyone. I have learned so much through you and all the other Altenew bloggers, Video and classes.
Gorgeous cards. Can’t wait to view the video and try this technique. Happ Anniversary to Altenew. I have been a customer since the start! Here’s to 10 more, and 10 more and on and on.
Hello from Oswego, NY. I love your embossing and I rarely take time to do it – you have inspired me to do this this weekend in my cards! Altenew is the BEST – thank you all!
Hi from KY. That embossing folder is amazing, and I like the way you highlighted it with ink. Both versions are pretty, but I think I prefer the white background by just a tad.
Hi from Putnam Valley, NY.
I love Altenew’s embossing folders. And when one applies ink as you did, they create spectacular cards. I especially liked the black card stock with the gold ink. The splatter on gray card came out just fine-gave it a nice muted background.
Hi from Nashville, TN. Congratulations on Altenew’s 10th Anniversary. I was lucky enough to discover Altenew many years ago when I first began my cardmaking journey, and your products continue to be a staple in my cardmaking stash!
Hello from Alaska. Lovely cards! Thanks for sharing your technique video, now I want to go play along. I’m loving the ideas to use with my collection of embossing folders.
Hi from Indiana! Thank you for the video! These are lovely cards, and I picked up some great ideas from you – like you I emboss samples but store them with the EFs (I also write the sandwich I use on the back) but having them all on a ring is a great way to see all the options together. And I’ve been using one of Altenew’s EFs to batch make sympathy cards, but they are on white. However, I really like the choice of black and gold. TFS!
Hello from Delaware. I like this technique, makes for some elegant cards. Really liked the choice of the blue ink. Have me inspiration to try other colors besides white or gold.
Hello from Washington state, USA. Your cards are fantastic, and I loved watching your video! I have a collection of Altenew embossing folders that I don’t use enough. I can’t wait to try your simple but stunning techniques.
I love how the same embossing folder has such different looks. Both are beautiful. also like how you have the embossing folder pages, I am going to copy that for embossing folders and stencils. soon. I promise. LOL
Hi from South Carolina! Love this technique. These turned out so lovely. And oh the embossing folder swatches, not sure why I never thought to do that but it is now on my projects list!
Hello from Locust Grove, Virginia. Both of your cards are lovely and very appropriate for thinking of you and sympathy subject matter. I look forward to trying your techniques.
Hello from Ft. Wright, Kentucky! Beautiful and elegant cards! Altenew has so many amazing 3d embossing folders! I especially love the ones they create with a stencil to color them!

Hello from Brambleton, Virginia. Oh its hard to pick a favorite out of these beauties. I love them both and Altenew’s embossing folders are such a delight!
Hi from Mexico!. Love both cards Laurie, I find that technique intimidating, I may have to give it a try soon, thanks for the inspiration and happy anniversary to Altenew !
Hi from Southern California! Wow, Laurie, it is truly amazing to see the same embossing folder used for two cards that look totally different! Love the comparison.
Hi from Jackson, GA. Your cards are beautiful. It is amazing that you can create such different looks on a card using the same stamp set but different colors and techniques. Love both cards.
