Altenew Build-a-Flower Morning Glory!

Hello friends!
It's that time of the month...
Altenew is releasing the latest Build-a-Flower Morning Glory!

 Build-A-Flower: Morning Glory set includes 1 6x8 stamp set (21 stamp images) and 1 coordinating die set (3 dies). This set contains two beautiful multi-layered morning glories along with leaves and vines. Morning glories produce typical funnel-shaped blossoms in white, red, blue, purple, and yellow.

I love that Build-a-Flower comes with the matching dies and love to use BOTH.
In this case, I applied Inlaid DieCutting technique.

Noticed that the largest die comes in one piece?

I aligned the die onto white card stock and made the die cut. Once I did that, I made sure the stamps match the die and position the stamps in exact position.

The yellow of the Warp speed Stencil makes me think of a gloriously sunny day for your lovely Morning Glories. Pretty card, lots of ways to use Altenew products that you would not think of putting together.

Helen said...

Virginia, this is a delightful card--the morning glories are so cheerfully colored. tfs

Unknown said...

Oh inlay's a fun idea! For some reason I rarely think of that with BaF sets. Also a lovely idea to use the warp stencil behind the flowers; that just says happy sunrise to go with those bright, happy flowers. And do I see metallic accents on there, or am I starting to go blind staring at my computer all the time? If those aren't metallic accents, you managed to make them look like it! Thanks for sharing!

Teresa Doyle said...

This is so beautiful Virginia and I love the 'rays' around the Morning Glory's using the Warp Speed stencil, it gives a great effect to the overall design. Beautifully done as always!

Iris said...
