Hello everyone, Therese here! Welcome to the Build-A-Flower: Narcissus Layering Stamp and Die Set release blog hop! Get ready for some beautiful card project inspiration and lots of fun prizes!
Build-A-Flower: Narcissus Layering Stamp and Die Set
Nothing says spring has sprung quite like an open daffodil bloom. This layering stamp set features an elegant narcissus in full bloom with a stem and leaf. The flower itself comprises eight detailed layers to give a beautifully realistic look to the bloom. Try using the leaf both ways on your projects to give variety, and stamp the accompanying heartwarming sentiments to inspire your loved ones.
Project Inspiration
I had such fun creating with the new Build-A-Flower: Narcissus. Today I decided to add color with ink but in 2 different ways.
Starting with ‘no-line' layered stamping.
I used the beautiful Tranquility and Sugar Plums Inks.
And for the leaves, I used the Nature's Wonders Set. I also added a bold sentiment using the Circled Sentiments Bundle.
For my next design, I used the same inks to do some ‘watercoloring'.
This time I used Pure White Embossing Powder to heat emboss my images.
And this time, I added a sentiment from the Fancy Greetings Stamp Set.
To see how these cards came together you can see my video here or watch it in HD on YouTube.
I hope these cards have inspired you to use your inks to create some flowers using the NEW Build-A-Flower: Narcissus set. Thanks so much for joining me here today.

Lovely! I particularly like the first card.
I love her interpretation of these spring flowers! Looking at a snowstorm barreling through I really want to see them in person! I really look forward to designers takes to learn something new.

Gorgeous narcissus set, and what inspiring examples of how to use it! Love, love, LOVE this!
I love to see the first sign of daffodils in Spring. Beautiful design and colors.
Just love the muted colors of the narcissus. A springtime promise of regeneration and new life. Beautiful inspiration I will be creating my own version for sharing Happy Spring Wishes!

Stunning cards, I love the two designs done different ways! So beautiful!
I love the colors used, and the no-line watercolor technique, just beautiful!!
I love this stamp set and I love the designs created with it. I’ve never used layering stamps, but this example inspires me to try.
As always, Therese’s cards are lovely — they make you stop and read on to see how she achieved their look. The fact that both have an etherealness to them achieved through two different techniques shows what a master crafter Therese is.
Great cards Therese, love your colour choices.
I love the soft colors on Therese’s card! This flower is beautiful!

Both cards are gorgeous, but I think I like the stamped layers best. I love this beautiful narcissus — it’s like nothing I have in my stash.
Watercolor is always my favorite. Love your cards and style
