Altenew Build-A-Flower: Tree Peony Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Welcome to another great blog hop. We are celebrating the release of the latest in the Altenew Build-A-Flower series. This one is called Tree Peony and you’ll absolutely love it.

The hop, if you want to begin from the beginning, do go to the Altenew Blog first. If you’ve come to my blog from Laurie Willison’s, then a big welcome to you.

I decided to do something light and soft. Here’s what I came up with.

Isn’t it a stunning set. Stamping the outline in pink really adds something to the delicacy of the floral images. First I stamped out some of the flowers plus die cut them out. I started with a tent folded base and cut a strip out towards the right and backed it with some Matt Duralar (Grafix).

This is how Altenew describes this dreamy set. ‘This set features an outline image and three coordinating coloring layers each for the petals and flower center. The coloring layers have been drawn in detail for stunning realism! We have also included a leaf image (outline + three coloring layers) and a dainty little branch with small buds and leaves. The images are handy for flower arrangements or bouquets on your handmade cards, scrapbook layouts, journal pages, and DIY decor projects. Finally, finish off your project with any of the six sweet sentiments included in the set.’

I chose to stamp with 2 of the main layers plus the central ones. I adore how you can make the flower more full or less. I did add some watercolour to the flower buds to give them more depth.

The set comes as a Build-A-Flower Tree Peony Layering Stamp & Die Set, and there’s also a bundle with an ink set along with the stamp and die set at a 5% discount.
