Hi everyone!
I'll go to a birthday party later and still need a birthday card. I always make the cards by myself. Normally I make scrapbooking cards, but today I don't wanna play with paper.
So i tried something different. I had no plan and did it this way for the first time. I think it turned out not bad and it was fun to make it :) .
If you want to try it too, grab your brush and
Let's get started!
You need
- cardboard
- watercolor paper
- watercolors
- brush
- black fineliner
- glue stick
Step 1
Take the cardboard in any color and size you like and fold it in half. Then glue the watercolor paper on the top (a little smaller than the cardboard).
Step 2
Paint some splash of color (use more water than color so that the color can dissolve).
Step3
Take the fineliner and draw some lines under your watercolor splash and a ballon shape around some of them(you don't have to be accurate).
Step 4
Draw some flower shapes over the others (no accurate outlining).
Step 5
Add some leaves and gras.
Final Step
Paint watercolor over your leaves and gras, and handlettering what you want on the top.
Finished :)
Have Fun!!
I hope you like this quick little tutorial. It would be cool if you'll show me your cards when you've tried it out :).
And please be tolerant with me, english is not my first language.
Keep calm and make art!
