CARD
To showcase this product I decided to execute one of my favorite technique – white embossed no masking background.
No masking is an operative word in this technique. When we create a background using embossing powder there is no need to do masking for overlapping elements – you can simply brush off the powder from the overlapped areas. I embossed the carnations onto the Altenew watercolor panel.
After creating the background I performed a messy watercoloring using the Altenew Watercolor 36 Pan Set. I was simply wetting each element and adding watercolor pigment onto it, letting it flow freely. Then I also was extending the color outside of an element.
Next I added some splatters onto the background.
Then I wrapped a burlap twine around the watercolored panel tying a bow in the left part and foam mounted it onto a Parchment card base.
Lastly I popped up the sentiment made using the Bold Thanks Die Set.

Love it!! A card full of carnations!!!!! They’re the flower for my birth month, so I had to buy this set, and your interpretation of it blew me away! I love the loose watercoloring it, so much freedom to the image. Can’t say enough about how much I like this! Thank you for your inspiration.
What a fabulous card! Thanks for sharing your technique. I love the water coloring, your colors. Such a dreamy card!
I wish I had half your talent! This is such a beautiful design and your watercoloring technique is fabulous!
Lovely.
The first thing I thought when I saw your card was that you must have masked the images to get that result. Thanks for sharing this! Love your design and colours – so pretty.
Gorgeous pink carnations on your card. Really, really pretty.
Lovely card and floral set. I can’t wait for my set to arrive. Lots of options and colors to work with.
Love your card!!!!! I just love every aspect of your card from the white embossing to the color used for the flowers.
Simply gorgeous!
Your card is beautiful! I wish I was better at messy watercoloring. I need to try the white embossing on the background technique. Practice makes perfect, right? 😉

So pretty! I love the deep colour you used.
Love the artsy look to your card, beautiful!
That is some pretty watercoloring. I love how you went outside the images.
I love how you packed the background with these lovely carnations. Your description makes it sounds so easy, but your talent is clearly the source of this beautiful rendering. Thanks so much!
I love Carnations and
your card looks lovely
with them in the
background.

I am blown away by your card! I love the colors and technique. What a masterpiece!!! So pretty! I would frame it and display it. Thank you.
Very pretty. Love how you totally filled your card with the carnation. Beautiful coloring too. TFS
Beautiful card..I love the loose watercolouring …I love the colors in the 36 Altenew Watercolor set….I just got one recently and totally love it…
I recently received my first water coloring pallet (of course from Altenew) and certainly am a blank canvas (i.e., I don’t know what I am doing). But watching all the guests and team’s works and videos have given me confidence to think I can do it! Thanks for the inspiration and beautiful make and explanation!
What a gorgeous backdrop for any sentiment I love it! I love your colors and I love the depth of your painted flowers.
Beautiful background!
I have no wards to express how I love your card. Just wow! Gorgeous ?
I just love the soft feminine look of this!! So beautiful!
Your card is beautiful. I love the background.
Beautiful! These gorgeous carnations make a lovely background.
I love how you filled the whole space with these beautiful carnations! So pretty!
Beautiful carnations card, LOVE the pretty pink messy water coloring of these pretty blooms. Love the white heat embossing technique for this look.
Love that soft pink coloring. Great job! I have that thanks die. I need to try this.
Card is beautiful. The white embossing and a watercolor wash would make this a relatively quick card to make. I call this simple yet elegant. My kind of card since I have limited time to play.
Love the background stamping…very pretty!
This card is so beautiful! I love the colors and the twine is the perfect touch!
