After-Hours Ink & Flowers

Different results using the same markers, just different papers.

Check out the newest Paint-A-Flower stamp set from Altenew.

Welcome to my stop on the Paint-A-Flower: Rosa Floribunda Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop starting at the Altenew Card Blog. You should be arriving from the blog of Jenny Colacicco...I have the full HOP LOST at the end of this post.

I enjoyed a couple of relaxing coloring sessions using Artist markers and the Paint-A-Flower: Rosa Floribunda. I was testing out different papers to see how different brands blended as well as checking the vibrancy of the markers. To keep the game fair, all markers colors were the same for both papers. The results were very interesting!

This first card has a strip of Staples Ultra Premium Matte Photo Cardstock (sent to me by ENNA @RITZYHAG, a dear IG friend), which I stamped and colored the PAF: Rosa Floribunda... The BOLD colors was appealing, however, I found it difficult to blend the colors. My blending is never smooth, but the color wasn't moving at all.

FEATURING:
