Create a Faux Tile Card Background

May 19, 2022 by Heather Holbrook

Create a Faux Tile Card Background

This pretty green faux tile is the perfect background behind the potted plants on this card from Kathy. Using a sheet of watercolor paper she sprayed it with water and then added drops of liquid watercolor in greens and yellow for a marbled look. She then cut the paper into squares with dies and arranged them to form a tile design. She’s sharing how to create this card over on the Brutus Monroe blog.
