Watercolor Greeting Cards - a finished cardI can't draw or paint, but I learned a simple way to watercolor and make handmade cards.

Total Time: 1

Yield: 1

Supplies:

  • heavy paper or blank stationery cards
  • watercolor markers
  • paint brush
  • pencil
  • printed design samples
  • fine tip marker

Steps:

  1. Print design samples. I found some simple ones online.
  2. Watercolor Greeting Cards - printed designs
     
  3. Using a pencil and a piece of blank stationery, draw the designs onto the paper. Or if you don't feel comfortable doing that, you can place a piece of carbon paper under the printed design and outline with pencil transferring the design to the stationery. I was able to freehand it and I am NOT an artist.
  4. Watercolor Greeting Cards - sketched onto watercolor or other heavy paper
     
  5. Outline the pencil with watercolor markers. Using a paintbrush dipped in water, blend the watercolor marker outline and fill in the design. When dry, you can use a fine tipped marker to add detail.
  6. Watercolor Greeting Cards - blending watercolor markers into the shape of the flower

Those turned out very pretty. Be perfect for Mother's Day, sympathy cards or for a birthday.
