Altenew Build-A-Flower: Hyacinth Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Zinia Redo1094.5K views

Today crafty friends and happy new year! There’s no better way to start the year than with a brand new Build-A-Flower release by Altenew!

Make sure to read all the way through for all the giveaway details and of course visit the Altenew Card Blog.


For my card, I went with a really bright and vibrant color palette. I stamped both images from the Build-A-Flower Hyacinth set with some of my favorite purple and green Altenew inks and then I created an ombre background with some ink blending.

For a finishing touch, I added a few ink splatters on my background using Altenew Ink Sprays and stamped a sentiment in black ink.

I love your background
Mindy1414 January 2, 2019 - 10:50 AM
I would love to see a Donkey ear plant (Kalanchoe gastonis-bonnieri) in a future Build-A-Flower release. It's name is not so appealing but the plant its self is a type of succulent with long green leaves that get black spots on them which is beautiful on it's own. However the flowers it produces are stunning red and yellow bell shaped flowers that grow in a cluster and are magnificent to see (one of mine is blooming now :)), it also attracts hummingbirds which is a plus.

Kipp January 2, 2019 - 11:11 AM

TracyM #6773 January 2, 2019 - 11:32 AM
DELIGHTFUL card! LOVE the delicate layers of your sweet hyacinth, LOVE your inky background too! Most of my favourite flowers are already in the Altenew range but I do have one that I would still love to see, please. It's the stunning hippeastrum, also known as an amaryllis. We have several bulbs in our garden and the colour combinations of this striking bulb are endless :)
Nanette Leiker January 2, 2019 - 2:43 PM

Happy New Year ! Stunning card in gorgeous natural spring colours. This one is a must for 2019, I love flowers, lily, daisy, poppy , you've covered so many of my favourites so far maybe pinks next, the flower not the colour although they do grow in many shades of pink. Don't know the Latin for them sorry. Thank you for sharing.

First of all Zinia, I love your picture up top. Too cute. It gave me a chuckle. I think your Hyacinth card is so lovely. The background is perfect for the purples in the flower. This BAF Hyacinth stamp set is fabulous.
Michele W January 2, 2019 - 11:00 PM
Beautiful card! Thanks for sharing. I would love to see a lilac stamp set with the same level of detail as this beautiful hyacinth stamp set. Lilacs are my favorite flower but I also really love this hyacinth and can hardly wait to start playing with it.

Very beautiful card. I love the background! Just amazing art. I would love to see rosebuds as a BAF release. I love the Rose BAF, but wouldn't it be great to have very detailed rosebuds to go with it?! I think the resulting bouquets would be lovely.
