Last week we “painted” coffee filters using washable markers and water. When we colored the coffee filters, we laid them on a sheet of white card stock paper. As you paint the coffee filter with water, some of the coloring from the markers seeps out of the coffee filter onto the white paper. This leaves a very cool watercolor-like design on the card stock paper! Grab your watercolor “painted” card stock for these colorful greeting cards…

Supplies

White card stock paper with watercolor-ish design (if you didn’t do the coffee filter activity earlier this week, you could just paint your card stock paper with watercolors)
Scissors
School glue
Construction paper
Markers

Instructions

Cut your watercolor-ish designed card stock paper into shapes. I made mostly hearts, but I also cut several small circles out of one sheet of paper to make a flower.

Choose construction paper and fold it in half (hamburger style) to make a blank greeting card.

Use school glue to attach the shapes onto your blank greeting card.

Write a cheerful message on the inside of the card using your markers.
