Altenew 8th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 1

Welcome, everyone to the 8th-anniversary celebration blog hop for Altenew!!  If you’ve come from the Altenew blog, you’re in the right place!!! 

As part of the celebration, I’ve created a bright, funky card using the Altenew Quaint Blooms stamps and coordinating dies.

I white embossed the images onto watercolor cardstock, then painted them with watercolors. While the paper was wet, I dropped in a combination of blue and purple paints and let them bleed and blend in together.

Once the watercolors were dry, I splattered white metallic paint for some shine.

  1. Hi, Shari, SSS and Altenew –
    Great card, Shari! Love the colors and how you spattered the blooms!
    TFS and Congrats to Altenew!

  2. I absolutely love the card panel color and the embossing pattern — what a way to showcase the watercolored flowers!

  3. I love watercoloring and I love the ‘drop’ technique – Great to see used with this lovely stamp!

  4. I love how this card is beautiful, but different with the inks you used, I also enjoyed I believe it was an embossing folder. I really liked & noticed the techniques you used to create and do this card. This concept is one I certainly want to try out, because it is something Fun & Different. Thank you for sharing this great card concept & idea. Lori Hothan

  5. Hello, from San Juan Capistrano CA. Thank you for sharing this beautiful card you created.

  6. I haven’t tried painting because there are so many ways to use reinkers and ink pads, but you’ve really tempted me! Gorgeous!

  7. Hi From Florida

    I just love the embossing folder used on this card. Every card can use some splatter!

  8. Hi from North Carolina. Go Heels!
    I love your technique of letting the colors bleed together and the colors you chose are beautiful!

  9. Hi from Minnesota!
    Thanks for sharing this gorgeous card!
    I love how colorful it is and the embossed background really makes the card stand out!
