Perfect for beginners and seasoned artists alike, this class encourages you to connect with your inner creativity while spreading joy and love through your own floral, hand-painted cards.
We are going to paint about a dozen different greeting cards including some holiday cards! These are all watercolory florals but you can use acrylic, watercolor or gouache paint. We are going to keep the supplies and designs relatively simple so that you can do them in a few minutes. I’ll show you my favorite Strathmore watercolor cards to use and give you the link to buy them. Or you could make your own with watercolor paper.
