Altenew / Alexandra Renke Mash-up


I've been dying to use some of my newest purchases and combined several them on today's card.

I started by cutting Altenew's Doodled Dots Cover Die from  light gray cardstock.  I wanted a tone on tone look, so I also cut a card base from the same gray cardstock.  To add a little bit of interest, I added a panel of vellum between the base and the cover die.

That gorgeous floral die cut was cut from cream cardstock and lightly adhered to the card.  I added a strip of stitching for some extra texture and to create a subtle defining line for the sentiment.


Altenew's Simply Hello die was then cut from Limeade Ice cardstock three times and adhered together.  I then placed it on the card weaving the floral piece between the ls for some extra interest and dimension.

Finally, for another bit of texture, I randomly added some small cream sequins in a few of the dots.

This was such a fun card to create, I really love the mix of textures and elements.

Thanks for visiting!

  1. Miriam, I love the look of tone on tone as it adds a certain elegance to a card. That was a great idea putting vellum behind the die cut piece. Nice touch. Lovely card. Thank you.
