It’s time for the next Build-A-Flower release from Altenew and this one is the wonderful Hellebore. We are hopping along to celebrate the release so you should have arrived here from the Altenew Card Blog!
But first I have some fabulous news, I am teaching 2 classes on October 2nd at Auzz Trinklet’s ‘N Crafts in Brisbane and what makes this even more exciting is that the kit includes an unreleased stamp set from Altenew (sssh don’t tell lol). And there is more, Neha, the first Australian certified Altenew Instructor will be teaching with me! You can find out all the details HERE, I would LOVE it if you came along!
Now for my production line stamping… and what to do with the Build-A-Flower Hellebore ‘left over’ flowers, well, true to my promise to myself this year I have put them straight onto a card and here it is.
I used some design paper from the Celebrations Paper Pack in the background and the Fancy Hello Die was added to some Fine Frames border for my sentiment.
I have a video sharing the process of my second card and you can find the link below.
This time I created a frame with some Woodgrain Powder Cardstock.
And I added a sentiment in Gold Foil Cardstock from the Signature Words Die Set, I was obviously in a ‘hello’ kinda mood today.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Your cards are beautiful. I love the bright yellow/orange colors.
Wishing you so much fun with your classes!! Would love to visit Australia one day but for now a bit too far to travel for a class (live in Arizona). Love that background paper!! All the best!
Thanks for the inspiration. Beautiful cards. Your instructions are so easy to follow
Lovely cards Therese. Beautiful colours. The plants in my garden are just the usual purple and white, but I love them as they are one of the first flowers to appear in Spring. Thank you for your amazing video. Always look forward to watching and learning. Double bonus, we have Lydia on television today today. Can it get any better?
Wow! I love your cards and these flowers are gorgeous! The frame and the patterned paper were a really nice touch on your first card- the flowers really pop!
I love the fancy hello with the hellebore stamps.
Awesome stampset! Awesome creations! I especially love the card where the flowers areboth behind and on top of the little frame!
Beautiful cards! Thanks for showing off this stunning set.
Therese, this card is gorgeous. The colors are sensational. Thank you!
Oh those lucky people in Brisbane! Wish I was there to attend! We had an extended trip (from Canada) to Auzz in 1991 with our two daughters. We love Brisbane.
I also love to see what lovely arrangement you will design each month with the BAF sets. You never disappoint! Beautiful….
Love these “tropical” hellebores in the beautiful bright colors on your gorgeous cards.. The ones in my garden are purple and a white one with wine colored veining, but beautiful too! They show up first in early,early spring and are a welcome sight. I think I might have to have this set! 🙂 I think your classes are probably fun like your videos and I wish I could take one!
Beautiful cards! I enjoyed the video; thank youl
If only I wasn’t 1/2 way around the world from you–I’d be at your classes, Therese! What beautiful cards using this lovely new set–thanks for the video!
