Hello!
Today I have a card simply stamped and colored following many helpful instructions from Marika Rahtu. You may be familiar with her beautifully colored cards using ALTENEW stamps. I find her coloring videos filled with thoughtful insight on how to make flowers come to life on the paper!
Here is my card:
Inks and INKTENSE watercolor pencils I used.
And the colors for the background wash.
I flat out copied the composition from Marika's card here. The Lacy Scrolls stamps helped in keeping the white highlights on the end of the petals.
Over-all I'm happy with the flowers. Still planning on practicing MUCH more:)
THANK YOU so much Marika in sharing so much with your readers...You are a SUPER teacher!
Supplies:
- Paper: Neenah Solor White
- Stamps: Altenew LACY SCROLLS, Bejeweled and Painted Butterflies
- Inks: SSS Green Apple, Cotton Candy, Black
- Pencils: Inktense Watercolor

Amazing colouring may I add!! I looked at a while and I didn't realised that it was a CASE of my card before I read it from your post. I'm so overwhelmed by how much people liked that card. And for more I am so overwhelmed that my tutorials are liked and watched that much. I read your post with grateful teardrops in my cheeks. Thank you so much, LauraJane for your kind and lovely words - and this wonderful CASE of my card. I adore your work and it is truly an honour for me that you CASEd me.
