Loose watercolor vintage floral card

September 21, 2022 - by Gaylynn

Loose watercolor vintage floral card

Hello, Gaylynn here.  Today, I am sharing a loose watercolor vintage floral card with a mail or postage theme.  I kept this soft and muted for vintage coloring.

The vintage layered stamping inspired me to use soft pastel colors for watercolor on the flower and on the background.

Sentiment:  Thankful for you.

I made a quick video tutorial showing the process for this project.

Helpful tips:
These are helpful tips for creating a loose watercolor vintage floral card or craft project.  To begin, prepare an A2 size card base in gray.  Next, trim or die-cut a stamp panel.  Also, stamp and trim the sentiment pieces.  Then, stamp onto watercolor cardstock using waterproof ink, preferably on the smooth side.  Also, overlap the stamping to create a vintage look.  Next,  make a palette of your watercolor choices mixed with water.  Then, using a paint brush, add watercolor to the script section and to the flower vase.  Also, using a wet brush, add muted watercolor for the background.  Heat set between the stamped sections.  Finally, adhere it all to the card base using flat and foam double-sided tape, to finish.

 

Here is another look.

Supplies:
