Step 1: The Quote

Begin by picking your favorite quote of the Watercolor Calligraphy options:

Start every day with a smile!
I'm still wearing that smile you gave me!
it's a great day to have a great day!
Today is one of the good days!
Be your own sunshine!
Do more of what makes you happy!

Step 2: Cut

Use some scissors to cut around the edges of the watercolor.
