Video : Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers Release Blog Hop & Giveaway!

Today I share some more Watercolor Brush Marker colouring with the new release of colours from Altenew!  This gorgeous set is called Winter Wonderland and has some beautiful rich colours that just make me happy.  And today you should have hopped here from the Altenew Scrapbook Blog.

I hadn’t had a chance to ink up these flowers from the Engagement Wishes set and just love how large they are, what an impact they make.  I decided to film as I created today and you can scroll down to see my video link.

And if you watch the video all the way to the end you will also see some ‘Bird Life’ from our trip away this year, I couldn’t resist but to share it with you……

  1. Gorgeous card! Your video, as always, is so informative and nicely done. Love the birds at the end, especially the blue ones.

  2. The new colours are bright, bold and beautiful, just as Therese likes them. Seriously though, beautiful bright card showing the new colours off to great effect.

  3. WOW, this card is just beautiful. I will have to get out my water color markers and use these colors.

  4. Stunning card. Your work is so inspiring. It gives me the to really want to try…practice, practice, practice. Love your work, thank you for sharing with beautiful video’s!

  5. Beautiful card and stunning colours, love the card and I also love the dimensional stamens, they really create interest on the card. The markers are fantastic thanks to Altenew for another great product and thanks to you for your inspiration. Di Brown.

  6. You’ve done an amazing job coloring with your new watercolor brush markers…gorgeous flowers and leaves! Thanks again for another great video tutorial…and for sharing all those darling birds with us 🙂

  7. the black and white stripe is so perfect for your gorgeous vibrant flowers, Therese – these markers are certainly on my wishlist!!

  8. Gorgeous flowers, Therese! I loved watching how easily those markers blend! That added red on the yellow flower was perfect. I enjoyed watching the birds from your trip as well!

  9. Looks like I “need” these watercolor markers – I already have some, but these are so intense. They will fuel my floral stamp obsession!

  10. The more I hop and see how these pens work, the more I know I need some. Thanks for sharing.

  11. Beautiful bold colours here Therese. Love the simple layout with the striped background and finishing touches with the Nuvo Drops.

  12. Very vibrant colours, the flowers really pop off the background. Thanks for the bird video. Love the cockie who keeps rubbing himself on the grass, we have a tall sprinkler of brass that slowly rotates and regularly get a kookaburra or two sitting on it slowly going round enjoying the water spray.

  13. Another wonderful card, love how you coloured today. The card really makes a statement.
    So enjoyed you bird show, I get woken each morning by a mob of Sulfur crested cockatoo’s, better then any alarm.
    Cheers
    Lisa

  20. Your card is beautifully coloured! That cocky made me laugh, and I don’t think I’ve seen budgies (is that what the blue birds are?) as big as those before.

    1. Hi, the blue birds are pale cheeked Rosellas and they are a bit bigger than budgies (I heard somewhere that ‘wild’ budgies are all green… I don’t know if I dreamt it or not lol.) Thanks so much for your lovely visit, Therese

  32. Oh, Therese, this card is just so beautiful, I keep going back to look at it again and see different things!

  33. Love the size of these flowers. You seem to work these markers fairly easy. I do love the colors. What a fun video. Birds are so fun and you are fortunate to have some very exotic looking birds to admire. Thanks for sharing this.

  34. Therese, I love your bright bold colors! Plus they are USMC gold and red so I gotta say I love them even more since I am married to a Colonel in the USMC!

Thanks for the inspiration!
