Altenew in April

Established in April 2014, Altenew has quickly become a leader in the inspiration industry, and continues to innovate and influence the world of paper crafts. Altenew strives to encourage crafters to express their own unique creativity through the art of paper crafting.


“Alt” translates into “old” in German, and thus “Alt-e-new” represents the juxtaposition of classical and contemporary designs. Our high-quality clear photopolymer stamps, stencils, and inks are manufactured in the United States and we are humbled to be serving customers in over 70 countries.

Our challenge here at Die Cut Divas is all about WATER (rain, lakes, ocean, streams, rivers, dark clouds full of water, glass of water, tears), just have some sort of water on the card.

The prize for this challenge is a $20 gift certificate from Altenew.
