WOW it seems like forever since I was here on my sweet blog. I'm sorry for my absence. I have been taking a much needed vacation/road trip and taking my Son to college. While doing all this traveling, I decided to pack a little kit for doing a little watercoloring in the card.
I pre-cut some card panels to 3 3/4" x 5" this will allow for a double mat.
Then I took along a few watercolor pencils, a hard surface to write on (a book works great), some doodle pens, 6 inch ruler and a few waterbrushes. Doodling really does help the time pass on these long trips, and when you are done, you have a beautiful card front!
Here is the front and inside of the card.
Here is a process video showing how I created them, and sharing with you this simple technique for doodling out a beautiful card.
Doesn't that look super simple? I know you can do it. If you try it out, please be sure to share it with me. #FollowingTonyaGibbs in Twitter and Instagram so that I can find them, or tag me in Facebook. I love seeing what you create!
DON'T FORGET - Our next Ustream is set for Monday, September 7, at 8:30 p.m. EST
Thanks for stopping in today,
