    Wow! I love these! I love watercolor - but I am not an artist, so I have never even tried to do it myself. I think I could do this! Thanks you for this video! Can't wait to see how mine turn out! I really am inspired that I might be able to make something beautiful.

    Those are really pretty! A tip - to help flatten your cards completely, run them through your die cutting machine, with no dies, of course. It works great!

    Thank you for this they’re absolutely beautiful . One question can you do this texture in Christmas cards too , I make my own cards so it would be nice to do something totally different to what I’m use too . You’re so inspiring. Watching from United Kingdom 🇬🇧

    • @VickiParfenow
      @VickiParfenow  Рік тому

      Yes, absolutely. You could use a Christmas Greeting Stamp or die cut on the front of the card, or stamp a Christmas greeting inside the cards. I love using heat set embossing powder and a Christmas greeting stamp straight over the watercolor . It works! Black or white would be my choices.

    Thank you so much for this! They are beautiful! Did you buy the envelopes the same size? I don't want to have to make envelopes. Would this technique work with 'cardstock' cards and matching envelopes (so I don't have to size cards and make envelopes) or is the cardstock to thin?

    • @VickiParfenow
      @VickiParfenow  8 місяців тому

      These are great questions…. 🙂I would recommend buying your envelopes first, then cut your cards slightly smaller than the envelope so they fit inside. Make your cards from watercolour paper, card stock won’t be sturdy enough to take so much water. I like Canson XL watercolour pads, they are easy to find , there’s a link in the description. You can create a nice, crisp fold on your cards using the edge of some scissors if you don’t have a bone folder or scoring tool. Make sure to leave the cling film on overnight. Have fun! 🫶🏻🙌

      Most water based media should give you a result….crayons, markers, Watercolor pencils.
      As long as you use Watercolor paper, and have a wet, highly pigmented consistency, then leave overnight to dry. 🙂
