VIDEO TUTORIAL

A detailed process of this card you can watch here on this post or in HD at my YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching!

To celebrate Altenew's Anniwersary I made a card with beautiful Dearest Friend stamp set.

I stamped the beautiful flowers onto watercolor paper with black ink and watercolored with Altenew watercolors.

I slightly watercolored the background and splattered it with the same paint and also with solution of Perfect Pearls.
Then, I stamped the sentiment with black ink and adhered my panel onto white card base.

Your next stop in the hop is Amber Rain Davis!

Hello everyone and Welcome to the Altenew Build-AFlower: Sweet Violet Release Blog Hop! I'm so excited to join this hop!!! You should have come from Nancy McClelland, but if not please start at the Altenew blog.

I've started by stamping the flowers and the leaves with Antique Linen distress ink onto piece of watercolor paper.

I used Altenew watercolor brush markers for coloring. I squeezed the inks out of the markers into my pallet and watercolored the images.

For the flowers I used Turquoise, Desert Night, Purple Wine and little bit Fresh Lemon. For the leaves I used Moss, Sweet Leaf, Desert Night and Paper Bag.

Once my coloring was done, I spalattered the flowers with the leftover paint. Then, I die cutting the images with coordinating dies. For my background, I blended Forest Glades and Minty Mint Altenew inks onto watercolor paper, splattered it with the same inks and silver paint.

Prizes:

To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $30 gift certificate to 6 lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog for a chance to win.
