Hello, and welcome to Altenew’s Metallic Watercolor Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing a brand new set of metallic watercolors. If you arrived here from the talented blog, Emily Midgett, then you are on the right track. If this is your first stop, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Card Blog.
Take a look at my watercolor postcard:
I love creating loose watercolor images. It allows me to play with the paint without any worries of perfection. The new Metallic Watercolor set is amazing. The colors are amazing and pretty.
Postcards are fun to send to people that you have spoken to in a while or when you’re on vacation. I created this “just because” postcard because a friend of mine is not well and I want to send her a quick message.
How to create this watercolor wash:
First, I wet the back of the postcard.
Second added the teal color to the water. The color moved all on is own.
Then add a little bit of gold.
Let the watercolor wash dry.
Splatter gold over the watercolor wash. Let it dry.
Use the Just Because stamp set to add the sentiment on top of the wash.
On the back of the postcard, add a light watercolor wash using the same color.
Now its time to send this postcard out to my friend.
What do you think? I would love to hear from you.
