Welcome to the November 2019 Gradient Cardstock Release. If you have hopped over from Therese Calvird‘s blog, then you are right on track. You can always start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog.
Today’s hop is all about the new gradient cardstock which is perfect for the Altenew’s Layering Dies. No need to worry about finding four shades of cardstock that work together because, with these sets, you’ll have everything you need.
My first project with this set combines the Cherry Blossom, Green Meadows, Sea Shore, and Shades of Purple Gradient Cardstock Sets. I cut out leaves and flowers from the Layered Rose Die Set and created bright embellishments for my layout.
I alternated darker and lighter shades creating similar but still different flowers and leaves. Two clusters ornated my photo which lies on top of some patterned paper that I picked from different paper packs.
Instead of adding ink splatters, I opted to use confetti. It adds detail and some fun to the layout. The butterflies fluttered onto the layout at the very last minute. I just had to add them.
You can see how this layout came together in the video below or watch it in HD on YouTube.
My second project was created with the leftovers from the first and I also added the outline die-cut. One simple outline is enough to create an original element.
The possibilities with these cardstock sets are endless and they are a must-have if you love our layering dies!

Brilliant product and beautiful colors.
Fantastic idea for your gorgeous layering dies!
I am new to the Altenew brand and I absolutely love these new colors! They are so gorgeous and look to be so easy to blend! I am looking forward to using these new colors on my cards and scrapbook layouts!!
Excellent idea – can’t wait to give it a try with all those dies!!
Love these new card stocks as the colors are already matched for you. Is there a chance that you will also do them in full size? Great idea.
Altenew never ceases to amaze me with their fabulous products.
Another wonderful innovative product from Altenew—with so many possibilities!
These are amazing and I love the size.
The colors are so gorgeous I just want to reach out and touch them.
Wonderful addition to your lovely layered dies! I love how easy you have made it to quickly create beautifully layered elements for crafting!!! Thanks so much!
Lilith, I LOVE you flowered cards

The gradient cardstock collections are genius!
Love both your projects!! Definitely have to get my hands on some gradient card stock!!
Wonderful projects using awesome cardstock! 🙂
I just ordered some altenew products for the first time ever. I can’t wait to get them to try them out. A gift certificate would be fabulous to expand my very starter stash.
The gradient cardstock is quite accomodating for our crafting needs not just for the size, but for the coordinating color scheme. A ton of thanks.
Gorgeous!
Beautiful page! Love the colour combo, fresh and bold.
Such beautiful roses! Love all the new shades of cardstock!!
My favorite thing about the gradient packs is that they coordinate with the ink colors. My least favorite thing is that the initial release sold out so quickly, obviously it was a winner of an idea.
Great projects
These gradient cardstock packs are just what I’ve been looking for. No more digging for all the right colors and then finding you don’t have the right one. Thanks so much Altenew.
Love the page and pretty cards. I can see lots of uses for the
gradient card stock.

Your layout is so pretty! The butterflies are great with the flowers. I love the floral outline on your card, too. 🙂
Fabulous colors! They pop off the computer screen so they must really be fantastic in real life.
Sooooooo pretty! Love the scrapbook page!

Love love love your projects. Just goes to show with a little imagination you can make something so different than everyone else. These gradient card stock is just brilliant idea to use with any layering die. (No wastage) TFS. xxx

So wonderful to have an array of colored papers designed to go together and easy to use. Thanks, Altenew!
