Hi friends!
Today I want to share a card made for the recent Altenew Summer Fun Release. This time we had a Video Bog Hop celebrating the release, featuring the new products and showcasing amazing projects made by talented designers. It was my first video hop ? and I couldn’t decide if I should create a coordinating blog hop for it or not. One thing you should know about me – I’m very shy and intimidated by almost everything in this world and there always dozens thought running in my head about what I can do wrong and why. Which is stupid in general, not talking about such thing as a blog hop 🙂
Anyways, finally I decided to share my card and the video that was a part of the blog hop. This card features the new Courageous You Stamp Set and fun technique of watercoloring on regular non white cardstock.
First I white embossed a beautiful floral image from the Courageous You Stamp Set onto a pink cardstock panel. This is just a regular 110lb cardstock, which isn’t quite meant for watercoloring. Usually you won’t be coloring onto a non watercolor paper with a watercolor medium. As it cannot absorb much water without getting warped or even damaged. Also watercolor medium doesn’t work as good on a regular cardstock. I made it work by using Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers. Altenew markers are extremely pigmented and a little bit goes a long way. Also the liquid watercolor flows perfectly out of them. So there is no need to squeeze the markers and risk to add too much water. Basically the amount of liquid got onto the cardstock is minimal and it prevents the cardstock from warping.
I was using the Ruby Red and Rouge markers from the Winter Wonderland Set, along with a water brush with clean water. In the video below I tried to explain in details how I did coloring.
After I finished coloring and let the panel dry, I added splatters of the Ruby Red marker as well as the Pure White Ink Spray.
Then I foam mounted the panel onto a white cardstock.
After that I stamped a sentiment using the Ruby Red Dye Ink onto a white cardstock trimmed it to the size of the sentiment and popped up onto the the card.
Lastly I added Snow Crystals to accentuate the card.

Great video! I love your tip for precisely applying adhesive with disposable applicators. The monochromatic color scheme is lovely, and I’m inspired to try my Altenew markers on colored cardstock.
