Altenew January 2019 Watercolor Brush Markers Release Blog Hop


Hi there crafty friends!  Today I am joining in on the Altenew hop showcasing the newest Watercolor Brush Markers.  The new brush markers have the perfect rainbow of color for your crafty projects. I am not a pro at watercoloring but the brush tip and the color in these markers made it super easy to color up some little blooms.  Here are some more details about them....

Create stunning works of art with our Watercolor Brush Markers! The barrel is filled with water-based color, and coordinates with our line of inks. The flexible, yet sturdy bristles on the brush tip allow you to form both broad and fine strokes. Color can be applied straight from the marker, or diluted with water for a softer look.

There are definitely a good variety of colors in this pack.  I used several of them to do a little coloring....


Altenew

To create this clean and simple card, I grabbed a light gray card base and added some silver glitter washi to the side of the card.  I heat embossed one of the images from Ruffled Flowers on some watercolor paper.  It was so easy to add color with these new brushes.  I popped the die cut up with some foam tape and then stamped the thinking of you sentiment right below.

Altenew

Altenew is offering several different bundles with the Watercolor Brushes included.  Some bundles have paper and brushes, there is an embossing bundle and even a bundle with both Watercolor Brush sets included.  Bundles are definitely a good way to save a few dollars.  Click these links below to check them out....
