Altenew Build-a-Flower Blog Hop + Giveaway


Today I'm using Build-a-Flower Sakura (Cherry Blossom) which was released
last month. I chose this set because the dies appear to be "stand alone" although
they coordinate perfectly with the Sakura stamp set.



I ink distressed the left bottom corner of a piece of watercolor card stock with
Shaded Lilac Distress ink and spritzed on some water for texture and interest.
Three sakura were cut from light pink card stock and ink distressed around the petals.
The stamen were cut from white card stock and inked in the center with yellow ink.


The leaves were cut from light green card stock and the details were stamped on
top, then ink distressed lightly for dimension. I wanted to add a branch for the flowers
to sit on and the Forever and a Day dies fit the bill.



Brown card stock was cut with the dies and highlighted with white pigment ink.
I trimmed the branch into smaller pieces and tucked them under the blooms.
The card was finished off with the stamped sentiment and sequins.
