'Every Child is an Artist' .... Pablo Picasso

I've been a FAN of watercolor painting
for many years. I'm not a pro, but I would
love to share some how to's and
tutorials about learning the ART.

Watercolor and Rubber Stamp 4th of July cards


I painted red and blue water color on a piece of card stock. 
In ~true~ watercolor, there is no white used.  White is the absence of color. 
That is what I did in this graphic.   Painted only red and blue. 
When the watercolors were fully dry, I stamped the dog over top.

I then scanned the picture into my computer and added the wording
in a graphics program.

I dropped the scanned picture into a Word document and adjusted the size.
I was able to print out 4 of the pictures per card stock page.     I cut a sheet of
card stock in half and glued the graphic to the front.  
I sent out 20 of these for a military 4th of July mailing that I participated in. 


There are SO MANY possibilities when combining watercolor painting
along with rubber stamping.
