Video: One Layer Floral Watercolor Card Using Altenew Stamps & ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens

by May Park-

Hello, crafty friends! Welcome to Altenew’s Crafty Friends blog hop. If you are coming from the fabulous Jennifer McGuire’s blog, you are in the right place.

To celebrate friendships in this special paper crafting community, I created a floral watercolor card inspired by Debby Hughes’s beautiful watercolor card.

She taught me how to watercolor florals when we met at the craft retreat last April. I still need to brush up on my watercoloring skills, but at least I don’t feel afraid of trying watercolors any more thanks to my sweet friend, Debby.

Before I started, I wanted to talk a little bit more about my crafty friends. I have been so lucky to make some amazing friendships through our mutual love of paper crafting. 

It’s been my pleasure to get to know them better and inspire by their amazing talents. I’m so thankful to be part this paper crafting community full of kind, supportive, and talented people.

These photos were taken when I went to the craft retreat in Cincinnati, OH last April. We had a fantastic group of fun, sweet ladies in the ballroom crafting, chatting, and laughing for five days. I’m traveling again to Cincinnati this week to see my friends, of course, I’ll have a blast at the retreat with my most lovely, supportive, and amazing crafty friends.

For today’s project, I combined three flower stamp sets from Altenew to build my own floral arrangement: Build-A-Flower Coral Charm, Remember This, and Beautiful Day. I started by stamping the images with Versafine Onyx Black Ink on a piece of Strathmore watercolor paper.

FYI, I used the masking technique to create a dimension in my card while stamping. Then I watercolored my images with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens.

It’s hard to see from the photo, but I watercolored in gray along the bouquet of my flowers to add some interest in my background.  I added some white dots on the center of each flower using a white gel pen to add interest to my card.

It took me about three hours to complete my watercolor card. But I realized that how much I love watercoloring no matter how excellent I am at waterocloring.

I combined two sentiment stamps from Altenew Beautiful Inside stamp set to add a message insdie of my card.

To finish off my card, I stamped a fun sentiment and envelope image from Altenew Crafty Friends stamp set on the back of my card.

I also made a matching envelope by heat embossing the sentiment from Altenew Crafty Friends stamp set with Altenew Antique Gold embossing powder on a flap of my green envelope.

I made a video tutorial to show you how to create a watercolor card. You can watch it above or on my YouTube channel.

    С этого времени появилось большое количество производителей дженериков Виагры, которые используют то же действующее вещество силденафил, добавляя к нему альтернативные вспомогательные компоненты. Особенно преуспели в выпуске таких препаратов индийские компании, которые создают качественные средства со значительно более привлекательными ценниками. Рекомендуется хранить упаковку в закрытом виде при температурном режиме, не более 30°C. Обычные комнатные температуры полностью пригодны для хранения лекарства. Насчет хранения в холодильнике: рекомендуется держать упаковку в целлофановом пакете на полках передней дверки. Препарат требовательный к уровню влажности, который должен быть низким, а это условие не всегда выдержано в холодильной камере.
