Welcome to a fun blog hop! The December Altenew release is here and we celebrate with an inspirational blog hop and lots of giveaways.
- You should have arrived here from the Altenew Scrapbook Blog

The release is once again packed with lovely stamp sets and dies. Plus this month they have also release 5 pads of 6×6 papers in a variety of colors.
For today’s blog hop I used my most favorite stamp set from this release. It’s the Nature Snippets Stamp Set ( ALTN | SSS ) stamp set. A must have for me since it’s so unique and perfect for clean and elegant cards. I love this stamp set so much that I couldn’t say with sharing just one card… I had to create 3 just to share some extra ideas on how you can use it!

close-up photos
Here are some close up photos on all the 3 cards that I made for today.
the flower card
In this card I kept everything in blue and brown with touches of gold. A really clean and elegant looking card that works as a masculine card too. Just change the sentiments and you have a card for any occasion.
the bird card
How sweet and romantic looking is this card? It’s a thank you card but it would also make lovely birthday card. I kept everything in pink with touches of gold on the bird, the branches and the sentiment. The lovely lace border was cut out using the Creative Edges: Lace Die( ALTN | SSS ).
the butterfly card
My last card is a window one. I created a panel with three cut out circles and you can see the lovely nature snippets through them.

Gorgeous cards, Vicky, I especially love the second one!
Love all these te cards idea. Pretty and creative.
Your cards are so beautiful and elegant! I really like the new nature snippets set!
I wasn’t all that fond of this snippets set, but then I saw your cards. I love the pink card. It is both elegant and romantic. That lace die really adds to the appeal. Your window card is pretty also. I can definitely see using the Brown and blue coloring for a more masculine look. Wonderful job with this set!
