It’s time for the next Build-A-Flower release from Altenew and this one is the beautiful Fuchsia. We are hopping along to celebrate the release so you should have arrived here from the JAYCEE’s amazing Blog!
My card plan totally changed direction after I saw this video from Lydia and I decided it woul be fun to try her Sprayed Watercolour technique!
Using the Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers to add a watercolour look was so simple to do!
The sentiment is from the Simply the Best Stamp Set and I decided to heat emboss it on Jet Black cardstock after a little ‘mishap’
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

So very beautiful, Therese! off to watch – both yours, and Lydia’s videos!
=]
so beautiful as usually – thanks for the demo. I will have to try something like this now too.
This card has uch simple looking elegance. Love it.
This is beautiful set…I’m really glad to see some sets that don’t just have ’round’ flowers. Thank you, Altenew! and Therese!
Such a lovely card, Therese! I never think to use this technique with the layered stamps.
Beautiful card Therese!!
This is a beautiful card and stamp set and the technique looks like fun with amazing results. As for the little smudges…obviously even the great ones make them on occasion! Thanks for remaining calm and showing how to fix them! Lol!
hahaha, it may have ‘seemed’ calm (wink)
I love the free look of this. I have a “control” issue with watercolor. I’ll be giving this a try. Some fuchsias in our area are bright red!
Such a pretty soft look to your fuchsias – you made a lovely card!
Love the loose watercolor effect. A beautiful card!
Beautiful clean and simple card; great technique for water coloring. I appreciate seeing how artists rescue the little “oops’s” during the creative process. Thanks for including that.
Beautiful card!
So very lovely.
Loved the technique you used for your beautiful WC card!!! TFS how you made it!!!!
Paper Hugs,
Jan
Gorgeous card! I love this technique, too!
I love this card!!!! The colors are so incredible!
will try this technique – seems forgiving
Your card has such a clean and whimsical look to it!
Ok, lady, that watercolor technique with the layering stamps just rocked my world.
Beautiful card Therese. I really do love the delicacy of this set and the sketchy look of the stamps.
What a fun video you make. I was in awe of the sprayed watercolor technique. Looks so easy from the video but the card actually loo\ks very delicate and lovely. Very nice card indeed. Thank you for sharing and stay as laid back as you were on the video. Helps make a pretty card and keeps your sanity!
Lovely pink and purple! I LOVE how the outline is a bit askew from the colors! Great sprayed watercolor!
Love the loose look of your water colored fuschias, this sprayed watercolor technique is so awesome, thanks for sharing another awesome video tutorial

Beautiful card! Love that technique of spritzing the colored stamp before stamping it. The effect is lovely.
Love the fuchsia!!! Beautiful watercolor .
Love how you did that watercoloring. Somehow when I do that it never looks very good but I’ll keep trying.
You’ve achieved such a freehand look. It is lovely. And I really enjoyed your video. Seeing you create is inspiring. Thank you.
Love your card, Therese! Simply stunning! Thank you for sharing such an inspiring technique, looks like great fun with awesome results. Also watched Lydia as you suggested, absolutely lovely!
This is gorgeous Therese
Amazing Therese. The loose watercolour look is just so pretty
Those flowers are beautiful, as always from Alt-e-new, I own quite a few of them myself, might be required to add these to my stamping garden :o) Off to follow along on the blog hop, have a great rest of today!
I had such a wonderful day yesterday, it was so lovely to finally meet you IRL, the time just went too quickly! Thank you yet again for all your comments and blog visits, tehy really do mean the world to me, hugs Therese x

I’m in love with this technique. It’s easy, and it always turns out good. Thank you for sharing this beautiful card.
So beautiful and awesome! 🙂
I love your video and card. You make the water coloring part look so easy. I have been trying to do the water coloring myself over the last few days on a large stamp so I can doodle it. Now I know not to give up and just keep trying until it looks are beautiful as your card.
Thank you for showing us the sprayed watercolor technique. It will be on my to do list for sure.
Love your card and the gorgeous flowers!
Very pretty as always. Love the watercoloring. I’m just starting. Will be watching your blog/videos.
Terese, I always watch your videos first so if I run out of time I don’t miss your ideas. This new set is perfect for your watercolor technique.
I just love your card and your video made me smile. You just were so light hearted and “went with the flow!†I also viewed Lydia’s video and definitely want to try this technique.
💕 beautiful!
Will have to come back and look at details hubby dishing up dinner 😉
Gorgeous card! I 😠always enjoy seeing how a mistake is worked out. “Never say give up!” 😃
Great card and I love the stamping technique. Love the loose, artsy effect. The new BAF is great.
What a beautiful way to create loose floral images & the doodling just adds so much to it. Thanks for the video Therese & the link to Lydias’ video as well.
I love fuchsias! Use to decorate the front of my house with them! Great stamp set and love your project!
Gorgeous card, Therese. I love this technique. I saw Lydia post demonstrating it, but I haven’t tried it yet. I’ll do it for sure soon.
I love your fabulous card. The fuchsia is beautiful. I love the design. TFS
Hi Therese 🙂 Absolutely dreamy cards!!! Great to learn this new technique and thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful coloring! These pretty fuchsia flowers remind me of dancers!
This creates a gorgeous look and I love your card design Therese. This fuchsia is certainly a beautiful layering stamp set.
I need to get into the mind set that loose is good. It looks fantastic when you do it, Therese.
Some of my favourite blooms, just so beautifully showcased, Therese … the loose watercolour spray suits these fuchsia wonderfully … this is gorgeous! The sentiment looks perfect where it is … even though it is hiding the oops! Hugs, Anita 🙂
So pretty. I like your coloring.
Beautiful card and great video! Thanks for the inspiration!
Love how your arranged them to cascade over your card and add a bold sentiment! The direct watercoloring is perfect for this set!!
I adore the flower fuchsia. I think this technique looks very easy to do. This time of year is so hard, I want to buy EVERY stamp set that is released. Smh
