Coloring books for adults are all the rage right now, but have you thought of using watercolors and coloring a card? I love this idea and had so much fun making this card that it would be great for anyone!
Made by: Robyn Power
Time: 20 minutes
Level: Beginner
Size: Approximately 5" x 7"
Here's what you need:
- Craft Glue Dots®
- DCWV Paint and Create - Cardstock, paintbrush and watercolors included
- Cardstock
- Scissors/Paper cutter
- Optional: Paper hole punch and twineor string
Here's what you do:
Cut your card stock to create a 5" x 7" card base. Choose a design from DCWV's Paint and Create options to use for your card and cut it out to fit the size of your card base.
Use the watercolor paint and paintbrush that is included with the Paint and Create kit and have some fun painting and adding color to your card design. Set aside to dry.
Once dry, use Craft Glue Dots to assemble your watercolor design to the card base.
Optional: To add a little texture and dimension to your card, you can also punch a few small holes and thread through twine or string.
Definitely a winner in my book! Perfect for friends or family and I enjoyed being able to paint and be creative as I made it too!
Hi! I’m Robyn and blog over at Create it. Go! I live in beautiful Northwest Arkansas and love being outside. I’m a mom to five fun, crazy kiddos that I love, ranging in age from 16 down to 4. And I’m a wife to a man that I love laughing wtih! I love to create. I love papercrafting, working with wood, upcycles, repuposes, and DIY’s, crafting anything in general, trying out new recipes, sewing, photography, you name it! I also like to pick up a good book and ignore those dishes and laundry that never seem to go away. haha My life is never boring and can almost always use some re-balancing and simplifying. It’s not perfect, but I love it!
