Hi there!
One of my favorite Altenew sets to watercolor is the Bamboo rose set. I think it lends itself beautifully to loose watercoloring , which works for me! With this month's Inspiration challenge picture still in my head, I stamped a simple scene and watercolored it, using my Zig markers.
This time I used the flowers as background and added 2 butterflies as focal point. I did some mirror stamping of the butterfly and did the 'fussy cutting' with my silhouette.
A closer look:
I also want to share my card at Less is more (Spring walk) and Addicted to stamps (make your mark)
Thank you so much for visiting me!
Hugs
Hannelie

This is so pretty, Hannelie!
ReplyDeleteLove that Altenew set, too! ;)
You've created a beautiful floral background, Hannelie. When you fussy-cut with your Silhouette, do you use a Pixscan mat, or do you scan, save and trace? Just wondering which method would be best, as I need to get more practice doing this so that I don't have to relearn it every time.
ReplyDeleteSuper make and such pretty colours too

Your coloring is absolutely beautiful Hannalie!
ReplyDeleteI love the soft watercolouring on your beautiful floral panel, Hannelie! Those bamboo roses need to go on my very long Altenew wish list :) Great to see you at Less is More as always.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous and yes, the loose water-colouring adds such impact! This set has recently arrived in my collection and is awaiting attention. I wasn't sure what to do with it, given my frustration with water-colouring, but you've given me incentive! Thank you! So glad you shared your creativity in the Addicted to Stamps and More gallery!
