via Skillshare

Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!

In this class, I want to show you how to create ink and watercolor greeting cards on your iPad using the app Procreate.  I’ll show you how to:

  • create a simple hand drawn card using banners and illustrations to decorate the text.
  • use watercolors to add color to your illustrations 
  • use a downloaded font and a traced image to create a humorous birthday card.

You don’t have to be good at drawing to make one of these cards because I’ll show you a simple tracing method that allows you to turn any object into an illustration.  I’ll also share a set of downloads with you when you take this class including the watercolor brushes I created for Procreate, the texture paper I use to bring a real watercolor texture to my cards, and some banners and images that you can trace in Procreate.

All you need to take this class is an iPad and a stylus.  I use the Apple pencil, but you could do this process with any stylus or even your finger.

You can download the templates and brushes I use in this class here.  You can use the templates for personal or commercial use!
