welcome, clover!
This month’s Build-a-Flower is clover. I know, I know, so many of us spend so much time trying to get it out of our lawns, but, you have to admit, it’s a pretty flower! Hey, and those sentiments are great too, right?!
There’s three ways to get this stamp & die set!
- Buy it as a one-off on any order

I really enjoy that the Build-a-Flower series is so versatile! Sometimes there’s an outline stamp you can use on its own. Or, you can choose to omit various layers for different looks. Sometimes, I even explore different ways to use the stamps, like today’s faux watercolor look.
