DIY Watercolor Valentine’s Day Cards

Hello fellow makers! Kolbie from This Writing Desk here, with a quick and easy tutorial for V-Day cards this season. Kassa’s Watercolor Set has just about everything you need to send your friends and family some handmade love and practice your watercolor basics at the same time. We’re going to make four different cards using wet-on-wet magic to blend colors and shapes. 

Materials you'll need:

Step One

 

First, take out a sheet from the watercolor paper pad that’s included in the set, and tape it down with masking tape to your table or desk, divided into four sections. To make sure each card has the same border all the way around, I have a special trick for taping through the middle: overlap two pieces of tape so the length overlapped equals the length hanging off the edge of the paper, like below.

Step Two

 

Now you’re ready to paint your designs. I’m doing two heart designs and two striped designs. For the heart designs, I’m using Kassa’s large watercolor brush to paint. Start with a heart somewhere on the card, and then paint another heart that’s just barely touching the first one. Because watercolor likes to move wherever it’s wet, the colors will naturally blend together if your hearts are still wet when they touch. Keep painting until the page is full of colorful hearts.

Step Three

 

Up next: stripes. The flat brush that’s packaged with Kassa’s paint palette is perfect for this design! Start with one stripe at the very top, and then keep painting down, alternating colors as you go (I’m using rainbow colors, but you can use whatever colors you want). Don’t worry about perfectly straight lines: I think watercolor looks the coolest when it’s a little wonky and blendy, anyway. I made one card horizontal stripes and one vertical stripes.

Step Four

 

Once you’ve painted all four designs, it’s time for the tape peel (one of the best parts, in my opinion). Carefully take each piece of tape off at an angle, and peel slowly until your paper is free of tape.

Step Five

 

Next, cut out your cards. Feel free to keep cutting down to size if your borders didn’t turn out quite right -- but remember that these are handmade, so imperfections will make your cards even better.

Step Six

 

Time to finish the V-Day designs with a little hand lettering. The black in the watercolor set with the small watercolor brush is perfect for lettering right on top of the designs! You can also use any black pen or marker laying around.

Step Seven

 

For a final handmade touch, turn your card around, and write a little note to someone you love.

 

And that’s all, folks! Super easy, right? Kassa’s Watercolor Set makes card-making this Valentine’s Day a breeze.Thanks for painting with me!

I was really stressed by Acid reflux issues with my newborn and had consulted Chief Dr Lucky. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in my son and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Chief Dr Lucky enough. Highly recommended.

My name is Tom Peacock from USA, I want to say thank you to Dr Emu for the good thing he has done for me, Though am not sure if this is the best forum to show my joy and happiness for what he has done for me but i can’t hide my happiness and my joy so i have to share it with people, my marriage got crashed about two years ago and i tried all i could within my power but to no avail. I saw a post and testimonial about the good things Dr Emu has been doing so I decided to give it a try. though he is always a busy man but when he responded back to my email, he gave me 48 hours for my marriage to be restored really just like he said my marriage was restored since then I am happy and i am living happily i am so grateful to Dr Emu you can always email him here: {emutemple@gmail.com} or WhatsApp: {+2347012841542}

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.
