Altenew Creative Watercolor Media

Wow ! finally onto my last card for my level 2 Altenew Educator Program.

Today I am sharing the card which I created after learning from the Guru's of Altenew Jennifer Rzasa, Debby Hughes, and Laura Bassen. Wow their online class Creative water color media is just amazing.

So many different ways you can color your images by just using Altenew's ink pads or re-inkers .. yes I am right just re-inkers.

At the end of this blog post I have also attached a small experiment I did with my re-inkers. O what a fun!

So here I am with my Card where I have used Canson watercolor Paper , Peach perfect re-inker for my background and flowers from Altenew Disty Print Stamp. Images are colored using ink pads and water brush pen.


For my Background ,I took a piece of canson cardstock. Then I took out few drops of re-inker on my Glass media mat and sprayed water over re-inker drops . With the help of a water brush pen I tried to lift and dabbed the ink on my paper gently everywhere (I had sparyed lots of water on my mat over the reinker drops) as I wanted a very light colour for my background.

Ones the background is dry I used a gold embossing powder to heat emboss my Ditsy print stamped images.


For colouring my leaves and flowers I firstly dabbed a colour on the mat and then picked them up with my water brush pen to paint my flowers.

Now my sentiments are from halftone everything stamp and dies where I used a royal blue cardstock along with white to cut them out and used foam tape to adhere them . From the same coordinating stamp set , I have also stamped "Thanks for" with Persian blue ink pad .

Last part of the card was a bit of enhancing my flower center which I did with some diamonds lying in my stash.


Hope you all liked it . 

Oh! before I forget , here is my experimented work or you can say a background I created with the re-inker on a glossy card stock.


Hope you all like it. 

Please don't forget to leave me a comment as its boosts my morale to create more for sure.
Take Care

Altenew Magical Markers

Before I started this card I was very scared as I am not at all a colouring girl.

When it comes to coloring with alcohol markers I am one step back. But in the class with Sara Naumann , she made it look so simple to work with the Alcohol markers that I have given my try to it and vola!! I really liked my card.  So below is my work with the makers.


She  told us about various ways in which we can make use of our alcohol markers, So I have used them on Vellum.


I have cut a card base out from Neenah solar white in a size of 4 1/4' x 11'  and scored at 5 1/2' and another piece of vellum , cut to a size of 4 1/4' x 5 1/2'.  I have used Altenew Bamboo Rose stamp set  and heat embossed it using white embossing powder on vellum.


Then I used Altenew Marker R304 and R335 for flowers and G715 and G554 for leaves . 

For my flowers and leaves I have coloured on the other side of embossed side and used the pouncing technique to colour them.  


Now I took the vellum which I just colored and stick on to the card base. I have used the sentiment from the same stamp set and stamped on  a white flag strip, giving it a black shadow with a black cardstock strip.

Hope you all like it.
