Your cards are so pretty! Love the wax seals. 🙂
I love the Grateful card colors and the clean and simple elements on the card. And the wax seal is just beautiful. The hello wax seal card is lovely. Thank you. Have a blessed day.

Lovely cards Vicky and I enjoyed your process video. Thanks for the inspiration for these awesome dies.
relike the wax seal glad they are making a come back
Love your cards today. Unfortunately, this is yet another release that I have to have everything. Just love all the dies?. I haven’t used the wax seals yet. Bought them when they were released, but had forgotten all about them. Thank you for showing me a really delightful way to use them. I have two favourite cards today, can’t choose between them. The So Grateful and the Hello. I’m sure it’s the blues that make me love them more than the other. Just love blue ❤️
These are gorgeous and you make it look so easy! I seriously want these wax seals and am thinking about it! Lol!
What beautiful cards! I love the composition with these new leaf dies and background die.
The Peeking Leaves cover plate is beautiful. Will add it to my wish list.
Love the cards and the wax seals. Thanks for the demo on how to add them to a card.
I absolutely love the idea of using wax seals on cards. It really turned out to be an amazing and clever addition! I love the new Altenew collection and I love the fun way you used the dies! Great work!
Saw your video and loved it. I have my Altenew wax seals and don’t use them enough. Goes well with all of the dies used hear. Great cards as always.
Beautiful and colorful!
I haven’t used wax seals since I was a kid and it was cute. This certainly steps them up a lot!
Vicky, I have just been thinking about the was seals and your last video using them as card elements and lo and behold you put out this video and Sandy Allnock puts out a video about her wax seals! I think the universe is telling me something!
Pretty cards! The wax seals are a good, different embellishment.
Gorgeous cards, love your video.
Love these newest stand-alone dies, and I really like what you have done with them here. Simple yet so elegant, and awesome colors on the sweet buttercup! Thanks for some great card ideas!
Beautiful cards and great video once again Vicky. I had never thought about wax seals, but it is a cool embellishment. More great products from Altenew!
I think Peeking Leaves would be a go to for almost any masculine type card.
So pretty!! The peeking leaves looks stunning in metallic gold!! Also love the way the lattice looks as a background!
I love Roxanne’s comment. I love leaves! I’m also wanting the cover dies.
Beautiful cards, Vicky!!!
Beautiful cards using dies and I like the addition of the wax seals.
an alternative way of using wax is nice idea Vicky!
Beautiful cards!!! I love your wax accents!!!
Beautiful cards Vicky! What a neat idea using seals as embellishments, I’ll look forward to trying it out myself.
I really like the look of wax seals on your projects. I have tried seals before, not Altenew, and had trouble. It looks like theirs is foolproof.
What a fun idea!
Your cards are wonderful!
The wax seals give that little extra special touch.
thanks for sharing.
The was seals make such elegant and classy embellishments
I love these cards!
Beautiful colors (especially the blues). The wax seal makes a great embellishment.
love the idea of using a wax seal as an embellishment on a card. Never used them because I didn’t think sending them thru the mail would be safe.
Love the use of the wax seal. Makes the cards pop!
Somewhere in my stash I have a wax seal stamp of my initial. This would be a great way to make use of it!
I’ve never used wax seals. It looks so neat on your cards. The blue wax is my favorite. Both cards are really pretty.
Wax seals were quite the thing when I was a kid 60 years ago.
Great combo of wax seals and dies!
Those wax seals are awesome!
Your cards would beautiful with just the dies and sentiments, but the wax seals add a perfect extra touch.
Clearly, wax seals are making a comeback! You and at least two other crafters have featured them this week. Great cards! TFS!!

Absolutely love your cards! The wax seals are amazing.
These cards are so elegant and unique, yet they don’t seem overly complicated to make. The fantastic array of Altenew dies you used really made it easy to create designs that are beautiful and special. All three cards are fantastic.
I love your second card! I must get the Peeking Leaves Cover Die. Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful cards! So creative…
Thanks for sharing.
Fabulous cards! Love the simplicity of the last 2 cards and thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful cards and I love your use of wax seals. I bought the wax seal supplies when Altenew first introduced them but haven’t used them. You’re right. I’m one of those people whose been afraid to use them directly on my cards. I’ve also struggled with how to use them on my cards even if I make some ahead. You’ve given my some great ideas and the courage to finally give them a try. Thanks!
You’ve inspired me to try these wax seals! Your cards are gorgeous!
I just love the Tropical Leaves and Peeking Leaves cards. The wax seal is such a nice accent to these unbelievably beautiful dies.
Great idea on how to store all your wax supplies! It all fits perfectly! I love the look of the wax seals on the cards, and not just on the envelope. It really gives that handmade touch, especially if the sentiment is a little crooked! 🙂
Cool idea making wax seal embellishments!
What a great idea. Thank you
Beautiful cards!! Thank you for sharing your creativity!
How awesome are these wax seals!!! Love these!
