Watercolor slimline chicken card & grassy background ~ tutorial

 Hi there.  For Technique Time at Unity, I share a watercolor slimline card with a grassy background and chickens.

Sentiment:  Hi, chickadee!

For this watercolor slimline card, I incorporate two different color mediums along with chickens and grassy cuts.

Helpful tips:
Here are helpful tips for creating this watercolor slimline chicken themed card.  To begin, trim a slimline card base to fit your card layers.  Next, trim, punch out or die-cut slimline card layers.  Also, cut one watercolor panel for the grass.  Then, stamp and color the chickens and make a sentiment tab.  For the watercolor panel, add color swipes in teal and brown and then heat set.  Next, punch or die-cut circle layers for the chickens.  To make the grass, trim or die-cut the watercolor panel into three slope or grassy patterns.  Then, adhere the watercolor paper with extra tacky score tape.  Finally, layer the circles and the sentiment onto the card front, to finish.


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