Let's paint a no fail watercolor holiday card. This project is super beginner-friendly and will allow anyone to make a beautiful card for the holiday season. It's December, which means it's a very special Let's Make Art Matter... let's paint something special for the postal workers in our areas. Since they spend the season working so hard to get all of our packages delivered to us I thought it would be cute if we painted little packages as a thank you for working so hard this holiday season.
Supply List
Paint: Daniel Smith - Quinacridone Coral, Quinacridone Gold, Undersea Green, Indigo, Phthalo Blue (Green Shade)
Brushes: Round 6
Uniball gold pen, Holbein Soft Tape, Heat It Craft Tool
Watercolor paper folded 5x7
