Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Carnations & Woodless Watercolor Pencils Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

22 October 2020

Welcome to the Paint-A-Flower Sunflower Release Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Tenia Nelson's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog.

Today's release is super fun for several reasons. The first is the Sunflower PAF Stamp. I love sunflowers and they are some of my favourite flowers. I love how majestic they are. The second reason, I love this release so much is the new Woodless Watercolor pencils. You'll have to be quick and grab some here or sign up to be notified as Altenew only has a limited number for the release.

I created a fun card with the pencils and the Sunflower Stamp Set. Instead of colouring the stamped image I only added colour to the centres. I cut off part of the cardstock, making sure to cut around the stamped images.

On a piece of watercolour paper, I created a gradient look with the Woodless Watercolor Pencils. I blended the colours together with water and adhered my stamped panel to it adding a strip of glitter paper for some extra detail. To tie the two panels together I added in some dots following the colour scheme of my gradient.

I love the PAF sets and they are my favourite stamps as they really incite me to try out new colouring and crafting technique. Don't forget to check out the monthly subscription plan.

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

22 September 2020

Welcome to the Paint-A-Flower Carnations Blog Hop. If you have hopped over from LauraJane's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog.

For today's hop, I decided to do something different. I love colouring the PAF sets but I wanted a cleaner more graphic look for this card.

With the Altenew Obsidian Black Ink I stamped a couple of Carnations on the bottom part of the card. I tried to add a diagonal to the card by placing the flowers in such a way that they are lower on the left and higher on the right.

For contrast, I cut out a strip of black cardstock and with an old punch added a simple bord. For my sentiment I picked out a brightly coloured cardstock and cut out the word congrats.

The colours are simple but striking and I'm really happy with how this cards turned out.

Welcome to the July 2020 Paint-a-flower Release Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Virginia Lu 's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog .

Today Altenew is releasing the PAF Japonica and new Watercolor Brush Marker (Autumn Festival Set). I love the Watercolor Brush Markers and these colours will complement my collection even more. Using them with the Paint-a-Flower sets making colouring super easy.

For today's hop, I created I colourful card by stamping the floral image in full at the bottom of the card base and part of it at the top.

I added in colour with the markers and blended it out with a watercolour brush and water. It is super easy and really fun to do.

I really didn't want to overthink the process and went with quick colouring and blending. To finish off the card I added three yellow enamel dots which pick up the colour in the centres of the flowers.

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Iris & Watercolor Essential Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

22 March 2020

Welcome to the Paint A Flower Iris Release. If you have hopped over from Norine Borys's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog.

I am really enjoying the Paint a Flower sets. They help me practise my colouring skills. For this set, I used the new Watercolor Essential Set.

I created a simple stamped card and went with the classic colours one would associate with an iris. I mixed colours to create a purple colour I wanted to use. The watercolours mix easily. This is an excellent set to start water colouring.

I'm really happy with how the colours turned out especially the yellow centres. I added a couple of ink splatters and sequins for extra detail and pops of colours.

You can see how I created this card in the video below.
