Do you like ‘no-line’ colouring with alcohol markers? Today I have a video sharing a bright cheery card!
It’s time for another Build-A-Flower release from Altenew and this one is the beautiful Indian Lotus. Did you arrive here from ERIN’s wonderful Blog, if you did, then you are in the right place!
I decided to start by creating my very own stamped ombre lotus leaf background.
And I did some ‘no-line’ colouring with Altenew’s Artist Markers which you can watch in the video linked below.
I also added a stamped sentiment from the Tabbed Set as well as a Bold Greetings ‘hello’ (COOL’est font)!
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Another beautiful card Therese. Lovely background for that gorgeously coloured flower.

Gorgeous card — the background you created is amazing. I really want to try no-line coloring but I’m so afraid I’ll mess it up (I keep reminding myself it’s just paper!). You’ve inspired to give it a go.
Hi Cyndi, it’s best to start with something smaller and preferably something you have coloured before. Hope you have fun! Hugs Tx
Gorgeous card. I love the background. And the flower looks beautiful.
Love the way you colored the lotus flower, and a beautiful background with the leaves! Gorgeous card!
