Each cluster is composed of a large central rose surrounded by leaves, a bud, and sprays of mini flowers.

I stamped my image with black ink and used coordinating stencils set to colour it in. I used blue colours from Tranquility Crisp Dye Ink Oval Bundle, green shades from Tropical Forest Crisp Dye Ink Oval Bundle and Cotton Candy Crisp Dye Ink for mini flowers.

Artists' Gouache Release Blog Hop + Giveaway


Hello everyone and welcome to the Altenew Artists' Gouache Release Blog Hop! If you came here from Joylita Dsouza’s blog, then you are on the right track. Otherwise, go back Altenew Blog and start from there, as you won't want to miss anything!

To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $100 gift certificate to 1 lucky winner and a $20 gift certificates to 10 winners!

Altenew will draw 10 random winners from the comments left on each stop of this blog hop and announce the winners on the Altenew Winners Page on 12/14/2022.

For today’s blog hop I created Christmas card using the newly released Artists' Gouache Set, it features lovingly and carefully selected the twelve rich & vibrant colours. These colours are perfectly coordinate with signature Altenew colour families. For my today’s card I used watercolour paper and Prussian Blue paint (PB28, PW24) to create my background. 

Next, I used a stamp from Majestic Mistletoe Stamp Set and a light coloured ink for a very light impression, to create a draft version of the background.

My last step was to paint the stamped images with different colours from the Artists' Gouache Set. I used Lagoon Green (PG36, PG7, PW24), Pistachio Green (PY5, PY3, PB28, PW6) and Primary Cyan (PB15:3, PW6). To finish the card I coloured berries with a chalk pen and added my sentiment.
