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

by Zinia Redo

Hello crafty friends! Today Altenew is releasing a brand new Build-A-Flower set and I have to tell you this one is one of my top favorites! Join us in this blog hop for lot’s of inspiration and fun giveaways along the way.

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

So to celebrate this new release I created a simple card using the Build-A-Flower: Poppy Stamp Set.

Altenew Build-A-Flower: Poppy Release Blog Hop + Giveaway @ZiniaRedo #ziniaredo #altenew

I simply stamped the outline images from this beautiful stamp set on my cardbase using Altenew Permanent Black Ink.

I colored the images using some red and green shades of Altenew Artist Markers and also used a light yellow marker to color the area around my stamped images.

If you prefer stamping instead of coloring, this stamp is basically a layering set so you can totally stamp the color and shading on your cards. It’s a truly beautiful and extremely versatile stamp set. Make sure to take a look at the Altenew website for all the details.

This is lovely. Many of my favorite flowers, including this poppy, are already featured in the build-a-flower sets!
However, lily of the valley is one of my favorite flowers and I’m not sure how that would work for this! 🙂

Annalisa December 2, 2018 - 7:31 AM

What an interesting, graphic take on these flowers. I never think to go for this kind of style, so I appreciate you highlighting it. Now maybe I’ll remember that I don’t have to always do hyper-realistic flowers!

Reply
