Quick & Easy Watercolor Valentines.

To be honest I wasn’t quite ready for this week to start. Jake and I didn’t get much of a weekend. Jake was off being a zombie all weekend (literally). He left early every morning and didn’t get back until late. And since it was just Pixel and I at home I decided to be productive and do some much needed cleaning around the house. It sure didn’t feel like a weekend.

So when I woke up this morning the last thing I wanted to do was get right to work. Instead I decided to do a little relaxing watercolor in preparation for Valentine’s Day. We had guests make these same cards at our Shop/Social event on Friday too. Everyone really loved doing them. I ending up getting too busy during the party and didn’t snap any good photos of the event. So since I don’t have those to show you I thought I could at least show you some of what we did.

you will need:

  • watercolor paint
  • paint brushes
  • white crayon
  • cup of water
  • blank cardstock cards
  • envelopes

Easy peasy, right? If you’re in even more of a hurry, you could always print out these mini valentines.

Julep did a version of this project but instead of using cards they created an abstract art valentine. Brilliant!
