Hello Lovelies, I am excited to be part of Altenew’s Build-a-flower Japanese Mum release blog hop.
This is a gorgeous layered set and also has coordinating dies.
You should have hopped into my blog from the gorgeous Therese’s Blog. If not do not worry, I will list all the participants of this hop later in the post.
I have a set of three cards to share with you today. The cards share three different ways you can use this beautiful layered Japanese Mum stamp set. This set has the outline image and three layering image. Each card showcases combination of layers and outline image of the flower.
This one uses the outline and one of the layers of the flower and similarly the leaves. All the cards use similar process of creating the card for example, background sponging, cluster of flowers, white spaces, enamel dots and sentiment on the white space. The difference is the colours, layout and how the flowers are stamped.
Here are the closeup of this card.
The second card uses the outline as well as two of the layering images of the flower and leaves.
I just changed the colours, orientation of flowers and leaves, the background sponging and layout. I used a different sentiment from the stamp set on this card. Here are the closeups of this card.
Absolutely adore the layering details of the flowers in this stamp set. Here is the third card.
On this card, I did not use the outline image on the flowers. Again changed up the colour, orientation of the flowers, sponging on the background, layout and sentiment. Totally different card. Here are the closeups of this card.
This set is so beautiful. I love the size of the flowers and the layering details. Do you know there is a subscription plan for Build-A-Flower release.
