Mini Casa made this casa to celebrate Altenew. Altenew didn't make it and isn't affiliated with Mini Casa.
The blog of Altenew, a company making stamps, dies and inks for cardmaking and paper crafts, with tutorials and project ideas. Useful for card makers.
Cardmaking tutorials and inspiration from a stamp and paper craft maker.
The home page is a feed of card projects, each built around the company's own stamps, dies and inks. Recent entries cover swatching dye inks before a project, layering stencils for depth, using wax seals on a card, and styling floral cards with embellishments.
Visit linkEach post is titled for a technique or a project: color swatching for dye inks, Master Stencil Layering for depth, dimension and texture, and a modern take on wax seals. The current seasonal release is built around sympathy and care, with floral cards among its projects, so the feed shows cards for hard occasions as well as holidays. An inspiration challenge runs through the same feed.
