Easy as pie to make these cards and then use the Daisy Cut out for another card.

So let's see what it takes to make this cute card.

There's A Card Thursday - February 28, 2019 - Making Full Size Cards using 3 x 3 Watercolor panels

Today I want to show you how to use your Watercolor paper wisely and make some great cards.

As you all know I love to watercolor and being in a small trailer it is hard to have everything you need so I didn't take much Watercolor Paper and soon ran out of what I had.   I cut them to make card fronts so you don't get much out of a package.  As I was crying over running out I realized I had to do better with making it stretch.  I finally was able to order more Watercolor Paper and decided to look closely at how I use it.  The Paper comes in a size 9 x 6 so I cut it 3 x 3 hoping I could get more than one card out of a sheet. Well I discovered I could make 6 cards if I used the 3 x 3 panels.  Had to change my thinking of water coloring a little but it still works for most stamp sets I use.


So much you can do when you have to. So let me show you how to do these great cards.






Product List

Supplies: Stamp Set - Humming Along [148758]; Ink - Tuxedo Black Memento [132708], Watercolor Pencils [141709]; Whisper White 5 ½ x 8 ½  [100730], Watercolor Paper 3 x 3 [122959]; Designer Series Paper - Gingham Gala 6" X 6" 5 ¼ x 4  [148554]; Accessories - Glue Dots [103683], Aqua Painters [103954], Stamparatus [146276].

Instructions:
  1. With Watercolor pencils scribble on the Watercolor Paper.  This one I used Real Red and Old Olive.  Then with the Aqua Painter wash the Watercolor Pencils over the Watercolor Paper.  Let dry fully. I do about 9 of these and let dry.
  2. Attach the Designer Series Paper to the Whisper White Card Base.  ( You can use any Designer Series Paper that Coordinates).
  3. With Memento Black I stamped the Saying on the Bottom of the Designer Series Paper.
  4. Once the Watercolor paper is dry you can stamp the flower with Memento Black.  If you can not wait for it to dry you can use Black Staz-on to stamp on it.
  5. Attach the Watercolor Paper to the card front.
