Make a beautiful greeting card that you can gift to someone else for a birthday, an anniversary, a wedding… or any even that involves cake, really!

This is a step-by-step tutorial that will show you not only how to make a greeting card from scratch but also how to make your own watercolors FROM acrylic paints (if you’d like to try it!). You can make this card any size you’d like, but I use simple printer cardstock (8 x 11 inches) to fit an A9 envelope.

Some materials you will need to join in with this class include:

• A pencil and a straightedge (like a ruler, book, etc.)
• One paint brush (the size doesn’t matter!)
• Something to mix paints with (such as paint spatulas, popsicle sticks, even a butter knife)
• A blank card to work with (I recommend just folding a piece of cardstock or construction paper)
• A water cup and towel or napkin (for brush cleaning)
• Acrylic OR watercolor paints in ANY colors, though I use:
  • Red
  • Blue
  • Yellow

This class allows you to learn at your own pace, and you can totally pause the video or rewind at any time. All ages and levels of painters are invited to join, whether you’re a young beginner or an advancing artist.
