It’s time for the next Build-A-Flower release from Altenew and this one is a Sweet Violet. We are hopping along to celebrate the release so you should have arrived here from ASHLEA’s amazing Blog!
Yes, it’s another beauty and today I decided to create my own teacup of Sweet Violets.
I coloured my images using the Artist Markers and then used the co-ordinating dies to cut them out (love that about the BAF sets)!
I added a subtle embossed background using the Sunburst Stencil. As well as a sentiment from the Vintage Teacup Stamp Set embossed in Rose Gold.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Awesome flowers!
Violets are a favorite of mine and putting them into a teacup was just right! Love what you’ve done with the rose gold highlights as well!!
I love violets. I bought some last week and will buy more when the weather stops misbehaving. I love your coloring. And the violets in the teacup look adorable.
Beautiful card! I love the purples in this card.
Very pretty!! Love the teacup and thanks for all the coloring tips!!
Love what you created here. What is prettier than a teacup with violets? A suggestion for a deeper impression with a stencil….spritz the paper lightly with water on both sides before running through the big shot.
Thanks so much Barbara, I keep forgetting that tip!
This card is so pretty! Love these really deep colors.
This is a beautiful set. I do love violets and the card you have created today is really beautiful. Thank you
