How to Make a Watercolor Mother’s Day Card
Write and draw your message on the front of the card using the white crayon. It won’t be easy to see, but thicker lines work best. Use thick paper such as card stock so the watercolor paint doesn’t seep through the paper.
Then, add a few drops of watercolor paint to your palette and start painting. We used pink, purple, and blue for our card, but feel free to use any colors you like! Use watercolors to paint over the card, revealing the message.
If the water bubbles up over the wax, you can use a paper towel to gently blot (don’t rub) the wax.
Allow to dry completely before writing inside the card.
This colorful and fun activity is for kids of all ages and can be done in just a few minutes. So gather your supplies and give it a try! We know you’ll love the results, and your child will have a great time creating the homemade Mother’s Day Card. Mom will adore this heartfelt gift from her little ones!
