Hello there!
Today is Altenew Build-A-Flower product of the month mini-release. This month it’s Build-A-Flower: Hibiscus.
Our Build-A-Flower: Hibiscus set includes 1 stamp set (24 images) and 1 coordinating die set (3 dies).
Hibiscus are native to warm climates and are associated with tropical weather and relaxing summer days. Hibiscus flowers have symbolized many things throughout history, but are now most commonly known to represent “delicate beauty.” This set comprises of a 6 layer hibiscus flower in full bloom, a 6 layer hibiscus bud with stem, and a 4 layer leaf image. Three sentiments are also included. These floral images work well on cards, layouts, home decor, gift wrapping, and more. We can’t wait to see where these beautiful tropical flowers take your imagination!
This special product is only sold as a set, not individually.
And here is the card I made using new set.
I decided to go with tropical, hot and exotic color scheme for this card.
First i stamped the flowers and leaves and die-cut them using matching dies.
Next I inked a Solar White Cards base using Caramel Toffee Dye Ink and added some splatters with this ink.
I made a floral cluster and adhered it onto the card. Added two sentiment stripes white embossed onto a Jet Black cardstock.
Several clear droplets finished off my card.

Debbie Rumpza
Such a lovely card.. that pink is gorgeous.
Tracey Magner
Hi, Beautiful card and that is a really pretty flower. Nice color combo also. Did you change your profile picture? I did a double take when I signed on today, I thought I had the wrong blog, or If you didn’t change it, I am sorry, I have had one of the worst weeks of my entire life, so I am not entirely thinking straight lately so just ignore my question, sorry.
Thanks.
Svitlana Shayevich
Hi Tracey. I did change my profile picture, you’re absolutely right. The one I had before was pretty old. I’m not very good with keeping my personal photos up to date. But at least once in 10 years I need to do it 😉
I’m so so sorry that you had the worst week. I hope all is good now (or will be soon).
