Color Once, Make 2 Cards + Karin Marker Watercolor!

If the video does not display, please click here to watch on my YouTube channel, or refresh the page.

These bold and colorful cards feature the Simon Says Stamp So Beautiful stamp set! I wanted to no-line watercolor the floral images with Karin Markers, but we all know how time-consuming coloring can be. So to make the most of my time, I thought I would cut my colored image in half so that I can make two beautiful cards at once!

After trimming the colored florals in half, I also fussy cut around the outer edges. Peeking around the edge is a bright background that blended with Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron Distress Inks. I also added shimmery splatters with Prima Metallic Accents and Finetec Metallic Watercolors.

The encouraging greetings I used for each card come from the So Beautiful stamp and our exclusive, Reverse Gratitude sentiment strips.

Inside the cards I continued the encouraging theme by adding sentiments from our Inside Friendship Messages set. This set has great, heartfelt messages that can be stamped on the inside for an extra-special touch.

I plan on mailing these lovely cards in our Simon exclusive Blue Violet and Soft Navy mini slimline envelopes. The colors coordinate perfectly with the watercolored florals.
