This is a card and tutorial I had published in the Norwegian printed magazine "Ett Trykk".
In 2016 I am on their Guest Designer team.
The theme of the April Magazine was to "create your own background".
This is what I ended up creating and having published in April edition.
TUTORIAL:
Create your own pattern on your card front by lightly drawing pencil lines.
--
Here is my finished pattern drawn by light hand with a pencil using a ruler.
--
Use standard glue to "draw with" following your pencil lines.
--
Let your glue pattern dry overnight.
--
Pull out your watercolours :)
--
Add watercolour to your cardfront. First I wet the cardstock and then added my preferred colour combination.
--
All finished with the watercolouring. Now it needs to dry overnight.
--
Here is the result the day after - all ready to be used on my card.
--
For my final card I added some vellum leafs - one of them I have heat embossed. The sentiment is kept very simple - just a dymo sentiment.
I am very, very satisfied with the result of this card. I had absolutely no expectations to how the end result of the glue pattern and water coloring would be.
Have a fab day :)
