"My youngest granddaughters are both still fascinated with minions and this is the perfect project when they come and can't find enough to entertain themselves. I think they can both make one with a little supervision. I have to remember to save a couple of plastic peanut butter jars. Great idea!"

"I think even I could make these! And they're really cute, but I would make the actual tag a little larger to allow room for a name. Isn't that what gift tags are for? ) I thought about it, but you couldn't write on the back without squishing the quilled snowflakes. Nevertheless I am going to make some!"

"This Fly Free Scrapbook Layout is adorable! I've graduated four children and the butterfly is the perfect symbol for the experience. You've given them roots and now it is time to give them wings! It reminds me of that poem, "Roots and Wings" by Denis Waitley. I love the rosette as well. It is actually a fun embellishment to make! Thank you for sharing!"

"This Butterfly and Washi Tape Card is bright and cheery and light and airy! I have to confess that I haven't used washi tape yet. It looks sooooo easy but I haven't given in and bought a roll yet! The graceful application of it on this card makes the purchasing urge even stronger though! The butterfly on this card is sooooo delicate and elegant. I also really like the sentiment that the artisan included!"

"Details! Details! Details! Wow! I love it in this Sprawling Vine Scrapbook Layout! The vintage look created by the two black and white photos the trim of the edge and inking of the background paper is amazing. The application of the ribbon and lace is exquisite. I'm grateful for the tip in arranging a floral cluster. I've been wanting to add that to my pages but find myself timid. Now I'll have a go at it. Sooooo much inspiration in one place! Thanks!!!"

The Peony Bouquet Stamp Set is great for layering for a dazzling floral bouquet on your wedding invitations, nametags, and more. Based on the exotic beauty only found in nature, this stamp set was inspired by an exquisite bouquet of peonies painted by a Japanese artist.

This set includes two 4-layered peonies and two 3-layered leaves along with 2-layer berries and a branch of small leaves. The shading in the fine lines of these stamps give them amazing dimension that will add a lot of depth and interest to your paper crafts.The leaves in particular have a breath-taking amount of detail in the design.

With modern stamps and die cuts, it's all about the layers. If you think about a real garden, it's a little bit of a beautiful mess. Flowers and leaves tangle together for nature's canvas of soft shapes of petals contrasted with the sharp points of stems.

When you're making floral paper crafts, stamps come together for layers as gorgeous as a real bouquet. The great thing about a floral theme like this one is it will never go out of style. As other trends come and go, there's nothing more beautiful than what nature can create.

Whether you're scrapbooking, making handmade cards, or layering to decorate your planner, these stamps from Altenew will add great texture and variety to your designs.

The stamps come in layers, which gives you some options to get creative if you'd rather stamp without the outlines. You can also stamp just the outlines and do designs inside them.

This stamp set is a gorgeous addition to your floral stamps collection! The floral theme is great for Mother's Day crafts, wedding announcements, greeting cards, and more.
