You only need a few supplies that you probably have right now in your craft room to create an adorable background!

• “water friendly” cardstock like watercolor or mixed media
• low-tack masking tape
• adorable outline stamps like the Summer Sips set
• waterproof ink pad
• something to watercolor with…could be watercolor paint or water reactive ink pad/reinker

The process is so quick & fun! Mask a rectangle on cardstock. Stamp images as desired in waterproof ink. And then with tape still in place, watercolor around the stamped images to create a really fun background!

When the paint is dry you can add any focal element & sentiment!
