Watercolor blending, sympathy card topper and tutorial.

For Watercolor Wednesday, I am showing a way to blend two shades of watercolor onto a stamped flower.  Also, I share a cute card topper idea.

Sentiment:  With sympathy

To begin, I used watercolor paper for the flower and vellum for the sentiment.  All paper was trimmed to fit the card base.  Watercolor was added using markers, but any watercolor would work for this technique.  I first dabbed watercolor by color section and then blended that section out with a wet brush.  I repeated that for the second golden watercolor sections, blending into the first color.  To finish, I layered a card topper using die-cut patterned paper, vellum and a sentiment.

The full article and tutorial are up on the Unity blog.

I also made a quick video tutorial showing the process for this project.
