This is a little notecard I painted using watercolors. I bought a box of note card sized envelopes, then I cut lightweight watercolor paper to fit them...and fold the paper over to make a card. This is not the best watercolor paper, so adding a bit of pen and ink drawing to it improves the overall look. These are quick...fun to do...and then I have note cards ready when I need one. They can be used as birthday cards...or cards to stick in with a gift...or a quick "get well" card.

Such a great idea! This is really pretty.
What a great idea. I think the black ink really makes the w/c pop.
Thanks for sharing these useful ideas. I will be trying them out!
Lovely drawing! What a great idea for making mini works of art for your lucky gift recipients.
Your notecards are so sweet and what fun you must be having painting them.
