Today I share a video showing how I easily watercoloured the Weekend Doodles flowers, but did you know that this is part of a Hop celebrating the new release from Altenew and if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from JEN’s amazing Blog!
Let’s start with some release inspiration and this gorgeous Spring Fling Stamp Set. I used the new Altenew Crisp Dye ink colours and used the co ordinating dies which made the process real fun & easy.
I used the new Essential Rock Collection Paper Pack for the side strip and the background and the sentiment was stamped directly onto this using the Permanent Black ink.
My second card has a video to share the process, these flowers are from the Weekend Doodles Stamp Set and I did some simple watercolouring with the Altenew Pan Set.
The Baby Pink Sentiment comes from the Delicate Flower Bed set and I added a Mega Friend die cut in Dark Chocolate cardstock.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.
