Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Carnations Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 



Hi there!

Welcome to Altenew's Paint-A-Flower: Carnations Release Blog Hop + Giveaway.  You are arriving from Jenny Colacicco's blog - a list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience-


Today we are welcoming a new Paint-A-Flower release.  This month's PAF: CARNATIONS is a gorgeous. The design is detailed and  intrinsic, but easy to color with your favorite mediums. I just love the movement of the flowers, so I set to create a page on my journal for today's post:



I started by stamping the PAF: CARNATIONS with Obsidian ink to heavy mixed media paper, and used Altenew's Watercolor pan set to detail the images.  To finish the background, I added a few splatters of green watercolor and set it aside to dry.



To create my title card, I once again used repeated the same process as in the page background.  However this time I added a bit more pigment to the images.   I stamped one of the sentiments -from the stamp set- trim the strip and added it to the card with foam adhesive.


To finish the page,  I used the negative space the stamped images formed to add my lines of journal and then added a simple title using the Bergenia Builder Stamp set.


Just love how versatile the new PAF: CARNATIONS is, and all the possibilities of the design!  Remember to secure your monthly Paint-a-Flower subscription.   Just follow the promotion below to have the stamp delivered at your doorstep -each month- at a lower price when you subscribe:
