Hello and welcome to Altenew Build-A-Flower: Hyacinth Release Blog Hop.
We’re celebrating the release of the new Build-A-Flower – Hyacinth.
I made an elegant and clean card using this new beautiful set. I wanted to bring all attention to this beautiful and very realistic flower. I said it many many times and will say over and over again – I LOVE working with layering stamps! Every time I’m gasping when see the result layering stamping create.
So I started by stamping the flowers onto a white paper using blue and green inks (the particular inks I used are linked below). After stamping I die-cut them using the matching die form the set.
I also die-cut a Creative Edges Lace Die out of a Navy Cardstock.
I adhered the flowers onto a white panel. Two flowers on the right are adhered flat and the one on the left is foam mounted. I also trimmed them a bit. Next I adhered the lace edge to a stripe of white cardstock and foam mounted them onto the panel. Which in turn was foam mounted onto a white card base.
I stamped the sentiment onto the white stripe. Yes, I did it on this step, when it already was foam mounted. The story of my life – get carried away making a card and then facing the horrible truth that I forgot a sentiment. Thanks to MISTI I was able to stamp it onto already mounted stripe.
Lastly I added several clear droplets.

I am thinking this BAF Hyacinth is going to be a essential staple in my cardmaking this year, it is so realistic looking and the layers are very detailed, I love it! Thank you for the always awesome inspiration and Happy New Year!!
