Easy Watercolor Background Technique

I shared this super simple watercolor technique a couple of weeks ago to make a graduation card, but I just couldn't resist sharing it again with the new Forever Fern stamp set. This set and these colors work beautifully together and these cards were so quick and easy to pull together. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Instead of walking you through the steps on the blog, I have a video to share with you. A few days ago, I shared how to create this amazing card as a Facebook Live in my Catalog Launch Party Group. I also, posted the video to YouTube, where you can pop over and watch it. I apologize for the low quality. I am still working on the best place to video demonstrations, and this spot was clearly not it.

As you can see, I did a few different variations of this card. Including this one using a larger clear block so that the watercolor background takes up more of the card. 

The Forever Fern set is an awesome set. And wait until you see the match Designer Series Paper! *drool* Plus, this set may contain my new favorite stamp. Can you guess what it is? Leave your guess as a comment below!
