I paired an inky background with a beautiful stamp set to make this quick friendship card. Any water-based color medium will work, even watercolor paint if you’d like.

It’s rice paper to the rescue once again! I just love the soft, watercolor look of this Dragonflies rice paper.

These cards were done using Daniel Smith watercolor paints (my personal favorite), some low tack washi tape, a border sized embossing folder, a few random thin metal dies, some embossing powder, and some bling. I just threw them together in … Continue reading Abstract Watercolor Backgrounds
