Start at the Blog Hop Beginning: Visit the Altenew Card Blog!
Hello and Happy Monday crafty friends! I am very excited to be part of Altenew Celebrating Watercolors Blog Hop. I created my cards a while back, using the fabulous and vivid ALTENEW Watercolor 36 Pan Set. My projects also feature the Floral Doodles Die Set along with the Swirl Motif Die Set. I am doing what I call DIE CUT DIPPING! I add color with ALTENEW Watercolor 36 Pan Set to my work surface, the colors are bright and dilute it with water. Next I die cut lots of the Floral Doodles and the Swirl Motif set with watercolor cardstock. Now all I have to do is start dipping! So pretty and easy!! Lastly I glue the top outline layers and…voila you have beautiful elements for your projects! I love how they turned out and hope you do too!
