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.
