After spending a few days focusing on following instructions to make birthday bags, I decided to play with some #Altenew stamps and my watercolors. I still struggle with watercolor, but I'm so pleased with how these turned out that they became cards for the Cards for a Cause Challenge. Trying to be very relaxed with my painting (accidently!) caused some white spaces and I really like how the two cards above turned out. I had some trouble with the painting on the green card and decided that some spatters would help! The cards below use stamps from Altenew's Garden Grow stamp set and Zig real brush markers. I'm finding that I tend to work in pairs, using the same stamp with different colors and settings for 2 different cards. If you're not happy with your stamping creations, try making them into an actual card and you may find that they look pretty good after all!
