Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Daffodil Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

When signed up, you are guaranteed a spot in our monthly PAF releases and will receive a set each month - at a specially discounted price! ($15.99 →$12.99)



For today's release I went for a slightly different take on watercolouring. I picked out a lovely green cardstock and embossed one of the floral image with Altenew White Embossing Powder. Then I used the Altenew Metallic Watercolours to colour the images. 


I love how sparkly the images are. 


Stamping two images in opposite corners is a great way of getting a balanced card.
