Time for a totally new and fun product from Altenew, they just keep em coming! We are hopping along to celebrate and you should have arrived here from KELLY’s wonderful blog.
Introducing (insert drumroll here) Watercolor Brush Markers, and they are in the Altenew colours that we all know and love!
I decided to create some watercoloured flowers today, and these bright colours made for such a cheerful design. Out came the Build-A-Flower: Anemone and a beautiful floral set called Whimsical Flowers.
I added a sentiment from the Geometric Flowers set and popped everything on a panel of the gorgeous Yogurt Cardstock.
I decided it would be easier for you to see these brushes in action so I created a video to show you my card process.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Beautiful flowers on your card, I love the color combo on your flowers, and thanks for another awesome video.
I love watercolors. This is a beautiful card and it was fun seeing your techniques for using these markers.
Love your card and enjoyed the video.
Never tried watercolor and would love to try it!
Therese, you blow MY mind! I love your card, the green flower is to die for.
I think I’m a bit too excited about these markers! So very tempting although I still haven’t played with the pan watercolor set. Beautiful coloring, beautiful card!
Love this lovely creation! Marvelous vivid colors ,& great design!
I love that emerald flower. Your coloring is fantastic. Thanks for the video. I am new to watercolor markers, having just bought my first ones a couple weeks ago. My first attempt to use them was a disaster so now I’m trying to watch videos to learn how to use them. Your card looks great!
Hi Annette, I am not sure which brand you bought but a BIG help to me was when I tried different cardstocks until I found one that ‘worked well’ and so far it’s the Bristol Smooth Cardstock every time. Hope this helps. Crafty hugs, Therese
Love to watch you make cards, also you re-stamp the card after you color it, I have tried that but I have messed up my card sometimes, for some reason even with my Misty I still don’t always get the card in exactly the same spot. So I’ve given that up but I think it does make a difference because your lines are so bold and the card looks so good —–
Hi Lyn, I have messed up when restamping too, but only a couple of times and it’s very frustrating for sure. I always just sit my cardstock in the same corner of the MISTI each time (try not to think too much about it) and stamp and 9.8 times out of 10 it’s fine. I think it does make a difference too so I tolerate those few times when it doesn’t happen to plan lol. Hope you have a great and crafty day, thanks so much for stopping by and for your lovely comments, Hugs, Therese
Beautiful! I love the colors together! Can’t wait to try my hand at watercoloring!
Hello Therese. I love watching you colour. The Alternew stamps are awesome to colour. I only have a few but love them all. I am learning to water colour and think these pens would be a great help. You make it look easy Therese. Cheers.
That is so pretty. Those markers look like fun! I like that they come in colour families
Wonderful card, video and colors! Can’t wait to see how they match the watercolor paints!
Lovely, as always. These look so fun. Kinda like Zigs, but Altenew colors? Yes, please.
Wow! I love the beautiful colors in this! You bring out these beautiful highlights that give the petals such a unique look!
Love how vibrant the ink is in the pens, and your watercolouring skills are awesome on this beautiful card.
Beautiful! I so enjoy watching you create! Cheers, Dotty

Your card caught my eye right from the start. Love the color you chose for your main flower. Not a common color so it really pops. Beautiful !
Therese, your card made me smile as I love anenomes. We have some soft pink ones growing right outside our door. I always appreciate them each time I walk by. Your card is so beautiful. I am always appreciative of your videos too. I’ve yet to try watercolour markers as they intimidate me. Watercolour is my favourite medium, but I can’t seem to do it.
I always enjoy watching & listening to your videos. Once again you’ve created a lovey card and given so many great tips. Thank you!

You did a great job of painting those flowers in the bouquet. The flowers are so vibrant and just pop off the page. I LOVED the emerald color you used for the biggest flower!!!
