Trying Kuretake Pearl Watercolors for the First Time! ✨ Shimmery Card Backgrounds

Join me as I try Kuretake Pearl Watercolors for the first time and create easy shimmering backgrounds for handmade cards! In today’s cardmaking video I use the beautiful Kuretake Gansai Tambi Pearl Colors with adorable Lawn Fawn Dandy Day images to make soft, simple, and sparkly card designs. If you love watercolor cardmaking, handmade cards, Lawn Fawn stamps, and easy background techniques, this tutorial is full of inspiration. I share my first impressions of these Japanese pearl watercolors, show the gorgeous shimmer they create, and make beginner-friendly cards that are fun and relaxing to create.
