Beautiful cards! And thanks for the video tutorial ❤️ will watch tonight.
What is tonight?
Hi Vicky..these designs using the stencils are really great. I love the blending on the feathery stencil card. Thanks for sharing.
I like the feather stencil the best.
Gorgeous cards Vicky! Love the new stencils, they certainly inspire me to feel serene, you did an amazing job showcasing this release, I am adding a few of your designs to my inspiration boards ☺️ Hope you don’t mind! Thanks for the inspiration! Have a superb weekend!
These are so sweet! I love the color combos you used! That alphabet stencil is so versatile! Thank you for your inspiration!
I always love your cards and these are no exception! I like all these stencils too!
Great stencils and I love the speckled egg color too!
Your cards are beautiful as always. I love the alphabet stencil and what you did to highlight HI.
Love the cards. You have a way with booboos 🙂
Awesome video of these great products! Love it when you show your “boo boos” and how you fixed them.
Really like the Let’s Have A Party card! Too bad there’s no way to make the strings three dimensional without interfering with the sentiment.
The cloud stencil is odd looking at first glance but I love the realistic outcome, so it looks like it will be an addition to my collection.
Such beautiful cards! Love the way you used these great new stencils. The cloud stencil is my favorite. It’s so unique. Thanks for the great inspiration and helpful video!
Wonderful cards!!! Love them all!
Really like all three of the cards, GREAT job and love the ink blending!
Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful designs- love the trellis card
I love what you did with these cool stencils! My favorites are the feather and the clouds.
Oh, I love the red flowers! They are so rich.
Lovely cards highlighting the new stencils. I love the colors and layout of your alphabet card… clever! And the trellis stencil is definitely on my order list! Such a great background pattern for so many projects. TFS your inspiration!
Absolutely love your cards today Vicky. The trellis stencil card is my favourite. Just love the colour combo. I need to buy the primrose stamp, somehow I missed that one. It’s so very pretty. Thank you once again for your amazing inspiration.
Gorgeous cards! Great release!
I love the ombred ones. Beautiful cards!
Love Altenew stencil quality. Easy to make a quick card.
I love your cards, I also love that you show your mistakes and that you can still use your panel. All of the cards are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

All beautiful! The feather stencil is absolutely stunning. I also love how you used the little primrose with the background stencil.
Your alphabet stencil card was very cute.

ALTENEW has such wonderful products! I can’t wait to try these new stencils! Vicky, your cards are amazing as always! Thanks for all the inspiration! ???
Such pretty cards. I really like the new stencils in the collection. I love the trellis and agree with you that the cloud stencil produces very natural looking clouds. Especially like the card you made with the trellis stencil–colors are wonderful.
Beautiful, fun cards. I love the stencils in this release — that Feathery stencil is gorgeous.
I really enjoy stencils & these would be perfect to add to my stash! I agree with you Vicky, about the clouds stencil being the most realistic I’ve seen. You’ve showcased these four beautifully!
All of your cards are gorgeous! I love the trellis with the bright flowers!
Gorgeous cards!! Love all of your color combos, but especially on the ‘amazing’ card. That’s a stunning card.
Great cards made with the new stencils, love them all
Great cards! I really like the “HI” card and the floral one as well. And I see you’re using the new MISTI!! Thanks for spotlighting these stencils. I’m considering the mountain one … so unique. Been reading/hearing that covid is on the rise again in Greece(??). Hope you’re staying safe and healthy.
Love what you did with the feather stencil. And those gemstones are the crowning touch.
Thank you for the tutorial. I have speckled egg too. I particularly paid attention to the colors you were using with them. Loved all the cards but really liked the hi card. I would have never thought to mask and use the letters to spell out hi. Thanks for the inspiration.
I didn’t think I needed more Distress colors, but now I’m sold on speckled egg. Beautiful stencil backgrounds.
Beautiful cards Vicky, I have speckled egg on order, I can’t wait to play with it — thanks for all the ideas!!
Great cards, especially your flower card.
GORGEOUS CARDS! I think my absolute favorite one would have to be the trellis stenciled one! I especially love the color combination that you chose for it! Very beautiful looking!
Beautiful stenciling! I LOVE the blue one and the way you did the HI
Beautiful cards. Love all the new stencils. Thank you.
Beautiful cards!! I am so into stencils right now! So many different ways to use them!!
Love all your cards. What color red inks did you use for the lovely red flowers on the trellis card?
Your cards are always so well done. Your technique is great. The stencils are perfect.
Your cards are incredible. I especially like the card with the feathered background.

Absolutely beautiful cards and technique! Wow ?
Wonderful cards and so easy with those stencil. My favorite is the You Ar e Amazing card. Thanks for sharing these with us.
Stay safe, stay healthy.
Wonderful set of cards! I love the soft smooth ink blending on all the cards 🙂
Vicky, all your cards are lovely. I would have never thought to block off the HI like that. And, I like how you even highlighted more with the flower.
I’m loving that feathery stencil. The effect with the ink blending is lovely.
Fantastic video Vicky. All the cards are really gorgeous. Great release.
I’m not usually a fan of feathers, but love how you used the feather stencil. Your color combinations are great, too.
Love the alphabet card.
Wonderful cards, as always! I’m off to do some shopping now 🙂

Awesome cards! I love TH inks, so love this new speckled egg ink.
I think the feathery stencil is my new fav.
The trellis immediately caught my eye as super useful. But the cloud stencil , that I thought was a hole,is really useful as well. Great cards.

That’s the best cloud stencil ever! And, the balloons are a cut above, as well.

Gorgeous cards! What a great release. Love the trellis stencil.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Wonderful variety with these new products.
Hi Vicky, I’m so in love with your blue ‘For You’ Feathery Stencil card. I watched your video on YouTube and that’s when I first fell in love with it…? I love it so much I’d even do a bigger one and make it a print on the wall. It’s that gorgeous. Perfect colours for me. Perfect stencil ???⭐️ Well done ?
Great cards using the new stencils. TFS
These cards done with stencils are gorgeous!
Wonderful video showcasing these new stencils, beautiful cards.
I like the ideas for the stencils. Wonderful way to keep the papers. Great set share.
So inspiring as always Vicky and you make it look so do-able, thank you 🙂
Beautiful cards, love the Alpha stencil1 Great job! thanks for sharing your talents
Love your art, you are so inspiring! You make this look so easy, can’t wait to try these techniques out.
I love your cards, and your video! It is so nice to see that you make “boo-boos” too, and you shared how to cover them up rather than toss the card and start over. I think I would have used several trees by now with no finished cards if I didn’t work around the errors! 🙂 But I am finally learning that it’s no big deal to make mistakes; it may actually turn out to be a masterpiece – WITHOUT covering up the mistake! Thank you so much, Vicky, for sharing your talents and tips!
Love the alphabet stencil card!
Hi Vicky 🙂 Your cards are lovely!!! Great color palettes and compositions! Thanks for inspiring me 🙂
Your cards are beautiful. I love the speckled ink and the feather stencil.
wow, stunning design and colours!
Vicky,
Thanks very much for the excellent ideas. I ordered the trellis stencil earlier today and now think I should have ordered the stencil bundle (serenity). I will contact Altenew and see if I can cancel the trellis only and instead get the bundle. I loved all four of these cards. You’re so gifted at what you do!!
Very pretty cards. Loved how you showed different ways to use the stencils. Its good to see if a mistake is made and how you remedy that.
Love this set, would love to win the Beauty Within Stamp and Die set. I could watch these video’s all day long!
