Altenew Ultimate Watercolor Lovers Blog Hop + Giveaway


 

Hello there!

Welcome to ALTENEW ULTIMATE WATERCOLOR LOVERS BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY.  You are arriving from Terri Koszler's blog  - a list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience-






Today, Altenew is releasing -probably some of my most favorite releases by  far- three new amazing products:  WATERCOLOR COLORING BOOK, ARTIST WATERCOLOR BRUSHES- Round, and ARTIST WATERCOLOR BRUSHES - Detailed-.   The perfect combo for any crafter, regardless of your artistic level.   As always, all the products are of super high quality and a joy to work with!




If you love coloring books, and Altenew stamps, then the new Watercolor Coloring Book is going to quickly become a favorite.   I chose to color the black outline Peony ( the book also has an option for a no-line coloring image) using the Artist Watercolor 24 pan set, and the Round Watercolor brushes...



The quality of the paper and the softness of the brushes just made coloring such a joy.  It was so nice to turn on some music and just color away.  Now, I have a background ready for my next project!



To celebrate the release of the watercoloring book, Altenew is running a free gift promotion for a limited time. Feel free to share the promotion banner/info on your blog hop post or on your social media post using your affiliate links for a chance to make some extra money. 



No celebration is complete without a  GIVEAWAY!!!

$300 in total prizes! To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 2 lucky winners and a $20 gift certificate to 10 winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or each designer’s blog post on the blog hop list below by 02/16/2021 for a chance to win. Altenew will draw 12 random winners from the comments left on each stop of this blog hop and announce the winners on the Altenew Winners Page on 02/19/2021.

Good Luck everyone!

    I don't know a lot about water coloring yet, but I am learning a few things from this blog hop. For example: I had no idea you could get such smooth colors from water color painting when using the wet on dry technique. Is that what you used on your lovely peony?

  12. Karen M2/11/2021 11:54 AM

    Love the coloring on the peony! Can't wait to have this book to practice on my techniques!

    I like the colors you used. The sort of avocado green is so beautiful, and is one of my favorite colors. It is sometimes hard to get just the right leaf color...
