Happy October, my friends!
It's time to share another exciting Altenew Build-A-Flower with you.
This month's Build-A-Flower is Fuchsia.
If you come from the blog of Ashlea Cornell, you are in the right place.
If not, come join the hop and get inspired.
For my design, I opted for bold bright colors of Fuchsia.
I took out the Altenew Inks and chose all the darker shades of red and purple.
I took out the Altenew Inks and chose all the darker shades of red and purple.
By following the guide, each step of stamping was easy to do.
To complete the stamped die cut images, I created a green background with gradient effect.
Since Fuchsia are seen as hanging plants, that was how I positioned them.
I love the "dramatic" effect for this card-the dark bold colors and splatter!

Lovely card - those are such pretty fuchsias and I love the soft green backdrop. I love the random green leaves stamped softly in the background too!
Your fuschia are the same colors of the one's planted in a big oak half-barrel in my backyard. Such a joy to see Altenew come out with a stamp set for them. And what a set it is...your renditions is just gorgeous with it's varying floral hues. And, yes, you ARE awesome, too.
Beautiful fushcia coloring and your background really pops the fushcias out. Thank you for sharing

Your background on that card is simply stunning -- great use of the watercolors/inks.
