Pocket Card
Print the Pocket Card template. Add a gift card, note, or a drawing to the inside of this pocket.
Cut out shapes or tear pieces of tissue paper. Using a brush, paint the vinegar on the paper. Place a piece of tissue paper on the wet surface. Paint over the tissue paper. When finished allow the paper to dry. The tissue paper will easily fall off when dry. What is left is a “watermark” coloring from the tissue paper. It is faint enough to be able to add writing on top but yet leaves a pretty undertone.
