Take a look at the Paint-A-Flower: Rose set below:
The open Rose blooms and varied flora in the arrangement of the largest image allows for practice in watercoloring..and the smaller image is similar yet makes for quicker finished projects.
I'm so excited to share the samples I have created with you as part of the Blog Hop celebrating the release of the Second Paint-A-Flower (PAF.
I really enjoyed painting the Paint-A-Flower: Rose using the new Artists' Watercolor 24 Pan Set!!
I first stamped the large arrangement onto Distress watercolor paper with Warm Sunshine Crisp ink. Then I set to adding the watercolor from the Artists' Watercolor 24 Pan Set, working on elements that don't touch each other for better definition.Once I was happy with the watercoloring:
- I quickly made a mask by outlining the colored arrangement onto printer paper and fussy cut it out.
- Placed the mask over the colored image
- Randomly stamped a background with Dot Botanicals Stamp Set.
- Then trimmed the panel down; cutting a wee bit around a few of the berries on the left edge for interest
- popped the panel onto an A2 card base with Dots in Maple washi tape as embellishment.
- Finished by adding the sentiment in the upper corner; inked several times with Espresso
I LOVE how the watercolors can be VIBRANT as well as translucent depending on how mush water is added.Using a #2 and 000 brush allowed for different intensity of color too. When using the 000 brush, I go from wet paint pan directly to image for details in the branches and leaves.
*******
For the next card I used the smaller image from the set, inking it twice in the middle of a card front using Enchanted Gold Pigment Ink. Then coloring with the Artist Markers and my favorite Colorless Blender, which can be used for a watercolored look.
The sentiment is from the Warm Hugs Stamp Set.
I have a video share of a third card showing how I color with the Artist Markers and Colorless Blender for a quick watercolor look. You can watch the video below or on my You Tube channel.

Love your creations! So beautiful!
I knew you would do YELLOW roses! These are my favorite flowers! Gorgeous coloring!
Your coloring is amazing. I like how the first card was so vibrant and the others much softer. Thanks for showing how versatile this stamp set can be.
These are beautiful. I love both the more vibrant card and the softer version....well maybe that one a tiny bit better. You color beautifully!
Gorgeous creation, I love this new set and your coloring is awesome!
I'm in love with your first card but I just love the watercolor technique with the markers. I need to try it!
These cards are so soft and lovely! They turned out so beautiful.

Lovely cards Laura Jane! This new PAF set is gorgeous. Thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful cards; I REALLY love the coloring on the yellow roses!!!
The first card has such vibrant colors. Love it. My favorite though is the second card. So soft and the colors are beautiful. The third is almost the same coloring as the first. Love them all.
Beautiful cards! Now I really want those markers as well.

Beautiful cards. Your colouring is amazing!
I like the look the blender adds. Great video on how to achieve similar results.
Pretty cards! My favorite is the second — the colors are so soft and look very feminine. Your video was a bonus! Thank you.
Very pretty!
What lovely cards!
Wow! Gorgeous cards. Love your watercoloring ♥
Love all of your cards. Thanks so much for sharing your tips with the colorless blender pen. Your second card is my favorite.
All are so lovely. I like how you used the flower stamp for the background and as the central focus. Great video.
Your first card is my favourite. :)
Your watercoloring techniques are stunning. Love the maple tape with the first one---matches the new watercolors perfectly! And I appreciate the tips on the sizes of brushes that work best for you. I am never sure about that. Will be coming back to this post to put your ideas to paper myself. Love the paint a flower release!
Beautiful cards with these lovely rose designs! I love the color combos!
Those yellows are so beautiful!!
Thank you, again, for sharing your talents! I love watercolor and my artist markers also and you've shown me how to achieve lovely results.
These cards are simply gorgeous!
I always look forward to your stop on the hop. Your cards are always gorgeous. My favorite is the first card. Enjoyed the video and technique. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice work. The roses are gorgeous with the markers.
I really enjoyed all 3 of your cards. Just lovely colors! Thank you.
This is a gorgeous stamp set and your coloring is absolutely amazing. Beautiful cards.
Your coloring is so beautiful! I love how you stamped the smaller image on the second card. :)
I love your coloring ability! You lend such depth to each piece of the stamp; the berries look like I should be able to touch them! Thank you for sharing your time and talents in the presentation of the new product with your cards. Something to aspire to, most definitely!
Beautiful use of the stamps. Your shading is tops.
I adore your third card! It is so elegant. I love the rose background you made.
The yellow rose card is exquisite. Yellow roses were my MOm's fave. We lost her a year ago and today is my birthday, so the yellow roses were like a hello from her.
Beautiful cards, love that bright cheery yellow the best but they are all beautiful.
Hello Gina. Happy Birthday!! Thank you for your comment, I would be happy to send the Yellow Rose card to you. My mom passed away in June 2018, and I know how these little hugs mean so much!! Please contact me via Email or Direct Message in IG so I can pop it in the Post.
Wonderful projects!!
Wow wow wow!! Stunning cards with gorgeous coloring! Totally love your work! <3
I Really like the second card... Simple yet elegant!! Very Creative! Thanks for the inspiration!
