Happy Friday, friends! Not only are we thrilled that it is Friday, it’s also our kick-off day for Crop & Create Delivered Papercrafting! if you are joining us for this event, we hope you are ready and excited to create!

Now, back to business! Our friends at Altenew are always coming up with clever products and tools to help us create more efficiently, and today we are excited to share not one, but two—along with the chance to win a gift certificate to their shop! Let’s take a look at their latest, new & noteworthy products!

Craft with confidence with the latest crafting essentials from Altenew: the SlimGrip Sticky Mat and Micro Blending Brush Set with Flat Bristles!

Measuring 7.5″ x 7.5″ and featuring 1/4″ gridded lines for precise alignment, the SlimGrip Sticky Mat offers superior adhesion for a wide range of materials, including cardstock, vinyl, and vellum. It even includes guidelines for A2-sized card panels, making it a perfect fit for the Stampwheel while using cling rubber stamps. The adhesive tabs on the back ensure stable placement on your work surface so you can create your projects confidently and easily! 

Altenew’s Micro Blending Brush Set takes ink blending to the next level. These ergonomic brushes feature densely packed white bristles and come in two sizes (7mm and 10mm). The higher density of bristles allows for more seamless blending, while the extended handle provides a comfortable grip. Compact and portable, these brushes are perfect for precision blending, stencils featuring intricate, small open areas, and crafting on the go.

With the new SlimGrip Sticky Mat and Micro Blending Brush Set, Altenew continues to empower crafters like you with innovative tools to help you Craft Your Life!

Last week, our friends at Picket Fence Studios shared their new Ocean Odyssey collection and offered a $50 gift card to one lucky commenter. That person is:

“I love the peace you feel when you are listening to the waves and walking along the water’s edge. It is so good for your soul.”
