Hey there, welcome to the Celebrating Watercolors Blog hop and Giveaway, you should have arrived here from Sandhya Iyer, If not you can go back to the start of the hop at anytime by visiting the Altenew card blog or by using the list at the end of this post to navigate.
We are here celebrating Watercolor, did you know that Altenew has several Watercolor Pan Sets suitable for beginner to advance artists and to suit any budget?
Today I am sharing a project that I created using the Altenew Watercolor coloring Book. This gorgeous coloring book features popular Altenew flowers in beautiful compositions. You will enjoy coloring 12 floral designs with both black and gray outlines. Coloring on the light gray outlined images will give you a no-line watercolor look, while coloring on the black print will give you a stamped look.
The high-quality watercolor paper is thick enough to avoid warping and ripping when you color in the designs with your favorite inks and watercolors.
I used the Artists 24 Pan set to color my image using the Round Watercolor brush set. I start by adding a little water to the area I am coloring and then drop in a little color allowing it to move around. I then move on to another area, working away until the whole image is coloured. I add a few little splatters and then add a sentiment from the Signature Word die set.
I love how this card turned out, the quality of the watercolors together with the watercolor paper is a match made in heaven.
