Hello♥
I hope you are coming from the Altenew blog, if you just happen to drop by, know that we are releasing a new Build-A-Flower today which is Morning Glory. There are a lot of beautiful projects on the Altenew blog from DT and guests. You should definitely check them out.
I started by stamping my images with distress inks. After that I took a waterbrush to spread the ink and play with the stamped image a little to make it look like a watercolour painting.
The twig/branch is painted freehand. I heat embossed the sentiment onto black cardstock and popped it on one corner with foam tape.
I really like how the "faux painting" looks. I hope you like it as well.
Prizes:
To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $30 gift certificate to six lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog for a chance to win. Three winners will be announced on the Card Blog, and other three winners will be announced on the Scrapbook Blog on 5/6/2018.
Additional Prize:
I will pick out a winner from the comments left on this post and announce it on 3rd May.
The winner will receive a $20 gift certificate to Altenew.
That's all from my side today :)
See you on 3rd!

So beautiful! Love the watercolor look & your added branches!
Erum, the glorious color of your morning glories are just as I remember them from our garden when I was a child. Thanks for the lovely card and great memory it inspired.
Well I know what I'm going to have to do with my layering stamps next. This is stunning. Possibly most impressive is how you managed to make the branches look perfectly in sync with the whole painting. I just know I would make a mess of that part. :D Thanks for sharing this lovely idea. I can't wait to try it out!
Gorgeous watercolouring Erum, it really is a masterpiece to be framed! Oh and Happy Belated Birthday, hope you had a great day! Hugs, Gwendolyn
