Altenew-PAF- New Release Blog Hop

Hey Y’all,

Welcome to the Altenew Paint-A-Flower December Release Blog Hop!

It’s always such a joy to get a new Paint a Flower Release to paint! Be sure to check out Rebecca Sogn when you are done here.

Using the 24 Pan Watercolor set from Altenew is one of my first choices when watercoloring.

For My Card Today,

I chose to go with an embossing and then painting technique. The great thing about embossing the image first is the natural barrier the embossing creates to allow the watercolor to stay inside the outline.

Washi Tape

The small piece of washi tape feature under the sentiment just helps to tie in with the larger Happy Birthday Sentiment and the stamp outline.

Thank You

Well, I hope you are enjoying this blog hop. Be sure to leave a comment for a chance to win some great prizes. As always, I appreciate you taking time from your busy schedule to spend a few minutes here!
