“Giving Thanks” Altenew Educators Blog Hop and Linky Party “
With all that’s happening it the world, it is such a good idea to give thanks to all the front line workers that are helping everyone stay safe! When I got invited to join in with other Altenew Educators and create a card for this blog I knew I wanted to participate.
I decided to start with my Misti Stamp positioner. I chose the thank you sendiment from Altenew’s Flower Arrangement Bundle. (https://altenew.com/products/flower-arrangement-stamp-die-bundle)
The stamp from Altenew’s Everlasting Happiness, (https://altenew.com/products/everlasting-happiness-stamp-set) Its one of my personal favorite sets.
I used Altenew’s Permanent Black Ink and the beautiful watercolor markers. https://altenew.com/products/watercolor-marker-ultimate-bundle https://altenew.com/products/permanent-black-crisp-ink
Above is the card I made. I decides to color them a few ways!
I used my Altenew cubes and a brush and blended this card!
I got out my watercolor markers and played with these cards. I had so much fun. I even taught my granddaughters to use the watercolor markers,
The above card I decided to make it all blue!
I got my Granddaughters involved. In the above photos you can see her taking the watercolor marker coloring on a piece of plastic then using a regular brush and water to make her beautiful card.
Here is her sisters card! I love how much the girls love to make cards with me. I love how they all turned out.
Thanks so much for stopping in, Please enjoy the rest of blog hop…. you came from Maryam Sharara next on stop is Nicole Watt
