*Video: Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

By Laurel on March 21, 2019March 21, 2019

Welcome to the Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers Release Blog Hop! You should have arrived from The Hedgehog Hollow!!! If you get lost along the way, head to this post to start from the beginning. Today I have three cards and a video showcasing these gorgeous markers! I use the same stamp set on both cards but the results are quite different. Let’s watch the video:

The Altenew Watercolor Brush markers are  filled with water-based color and coordinates with their ink.  The real brush tips allow you to create broad and fine strokes.  The markers result in vibrant colors, but adding a bit of water can also result in softer colors, as you can see from the two cards I made in the video.

A few close ups of the cards:

 

Next up on the hop is Virginia Lu!!

Prizes:

  • Altenew is giving away a $40 gift certificate to six lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog by Thursday, March 28th for a chance to win.
  • Altenew will also draw a winner to receive a $20 gift certificate from the comments left on each designer’s blog on the blog hop list below. All winners will be announced on the Altenew blog on 3/31/2019.
