Welcome to Altenew’s second Blog Hop! You should be arriving here from the Altenew Blog. Altenew is a relatively new stamp company that opened it’s doors last April. In a couple of days they will be releasing their second collection of stamps. All the stamps that you will see here will be available for purchase at 9:00 am ET on Monday July 14th.
Oh, and there are PRIZES!! Altenew is giving away five stamp sets of choice to three lucky winners! The winners will be chosen from comments left on the Altenew blog.
There is more! I will choose a winner from comments left on this post and the prize will be two stamps sets of your choice. How awesome is that?
You have until Monday July 14th 7:59am ET to leave your comments. I encourage you to also like Altenew on Facebook.
For my card, I used stamps from the Sketchy Rose set. This rose is so lovely – perfect for coloring. And fun too – I so enjoyed taking my time and relaxing while I colored it.
Can you believe how vibrant these watercolor results are? It’s amazing that watercolor can give such bright color. Especially since it comes on little pieces of paper – crazy! Yes, I used the Peerless watercolors. If you’re interested in learning more about these watercolors, you can view my Peerless review and tutorial post.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a video for this card. Honestly, I really don’t like posting cards without an accompanying video. I want to show you how easy it is to actually create the cards I post that may seem difficult at first glance. That being said, here are a few tips for this card:
- Always use watercolor paper for best watercolor results.
- Heat emboss your image – it will be much easier to stay in the lines when you color.
- Break the petals down one by one. You can use my photo as a guide for which areas of each petal should be light or dark.
- If you have color on your brush, always lay it down first in the darkest area of the petal.
- Periodically remove all color from your brush and blend your image with a little bit of water.
Colors used: Geranium Pink then Alizarine Red for the rose, Grass Green then Dark Green for the leaves/stem, and then a little bit of Neutral Tint surrounding the flower.
So onto the next stop of the hop! Take a look at what Debby Hughes has created. Enjoy your journey!

Marie
Hi! I just wanted to say I am so inspired by your creations and am so glad I saw your blog a few months ago. If I didn’t, I would have never gotten into card making! All of your cards are so spectacular, and like always, this card is marvelous! My question is, for beginners do you recommend getting peerless watercolors first, or inktense pencils? I’ve watched videos of both by you, and they both work great, but I don’t know which one to invest in first. Thanks!
Darlene DeVries
Hi Marie. I think I would probably go with the Inktense pencils first. They are a little easier to control color for a beginner.
mary
WOW! What beautiful colors.
Joyce M.
This is lovely. So glad to see you working with Altenew.
Kate

Congrats on your new design team. I particularly love the Sketchy Flowers Rose (and amazing card by you Darlene) It’s a great size to do solo on a card and I love your colouring techniques, it really looks 3D! I’ve learnt a lot from following your Blog. It’s a real talent to colour well. I also like the Birthday Bash, Sentiments & Quotes sets but I am totally amazed at the Sketchy Cities abroad as I live 1hr South of Sydney, Australia and I HAVE NEVER SEEN a stamp of our World Famous Opera House! Well done to you Altenew for doing that! Fantastic!
