Altenew Crafty Friends Blog Hop + Giveaway!
Hello Crafty Friends!!! Welcome to the Altenew Crafty Friends Blog Hop! I’ve created a couple mini cards using the Gratitude stamp set where I’ve gold embossed the images and used watercolors to fill in with color. These are great to create in batches for the Thanksgiving table.
Have fun with your watercolors and allow them to seep into the grooves of the embossed image. You can’t go wrong!
I’ve filmed a video of how I created these little placards which you can view below or on our YouTube channel HERE.
