Making Watercolour Tags for My Journal

January 17, 2021 / Vero

Over the past couple of weeks, I've been gently soaking in the universe of Willa Wanders, aka Wendy Solganik, who makes fabric and paper journals that feel ever so tactile and delicious. https://www.instagram.com/p/CHxiKIznZXl/ Inspired by Wendy's journal class, I wanted to make little fabric tags to include at the back of the journal.

Peeling tape after painting watercolour backgrounds is so chill, right?
Card making is all about relaxing for me, so I cut a stack of card toppers, paint them then match them to a backing card. I don’t worry too much about the finished result while painting, as I can keep spares for a future card making round.

This is the second card I made last night, inspired by Japanese tinned peaches 🍑
Trying to rediscover watercolour painting while making a batch of greeting cards for 2023. I try to have a handful of handmade cards ready for birthdays and thank yous, and I’m quite happy with how this one turned out 😊 This one was inspired by a book of canned foods from Japan 💖
