VIDEO: Watercolor Block Background Technique -- In the Meadow Deer Card

This is probably the first card in 14 years that I have made without stamping words on the front. I've always said a card is naked without a greeting of some kind. However, I just couldn't find the right spot to add words to this card. Now that I am looking at the photo, I feel like I could add some tiny words in black ink in the sky on the right side... But I think it's okay with the words too. I love the way the deer "pop" against the watercolor background. Watch my video below to see how I did the background using markers, a Stampin' Spritzer, and a clear block.

There is no commitment when you join my Stamp of the Month Club! I'll add you to my club mailing list and you'll receive one email each month revealing the stamp set and card designs. You can choose when you want to participate by simply replying to that email.

Each month, I feature a different stamp set.
