I’ve got a watercolor method you can conquer quickly for an easy handmade card! And are you ready for a masculine card? I make so many cards using flower stamps, that sometimes I just have to stop and think masculine. This was a fun card to make and the video is full of a lot of different tips. Today I am using WATERCOLOR PAPER for the watercoloring, rather than the Shimmery White that I often use. I am thinking I like these results better! Ready to learn this easy watercolor method?
Watercoloring Method That’s Easy
The thing about watercoloring is that there are a million different ways to do it. In the past I have usually used Shimmery White cardstock, as well as my ink pad re-inkers. Today I am going to show you the difference of using Watercolor Paper, as well as a watercoloring method to get your ink directly from your pad. Let’s get started with today’s video:

Watercolor Method Card Recipe:

- Whisper White: 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ (to cut the frame from)
- Watercolor Paper: 3 3/4″ x 5″ (stamped layer-may have to trim a little when putting together)
- Inside: Whisper White: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Make sure to watch the video for tips on easy water coloring.
