Neocolor II and Markers on Watercolour Paper as Postcards

A postcard made from A5 watercolour paper decorated with a black marker. Colour in with watercolour crayons (Neocolor II). Apply wet brush strokes, so the colours run together. Draw a line on the back, separating the greeting and the name/address area.

How to do it
1. Draw a design on a piece of watercolour paper using a permanent marker pen, for instance an Edding 200. The design can be from your own imagination or relate to a specific experience.
2. Colour in the design using the watercolour crayons, Neocolor II from Caran d'Ache.
3. Use a wet brush and brush over the colours so they dissolve and run together. Let the finished picture dry and then press it underneath a heavy object.
4. Use the black permanent marker and divide the back with a vertical line. Now there is a writing area and an area to enter the recipient's details.
