For his 80th birthday my grandpa gets a book with wishes/notes/cards etc. from all his family and friends.
So everybody makes a page with whatever he wants to write/wish/tell etc. him.
This is my piece:

It was easy done. Just wrote it on a piece of white printer paper (cheap one) with permanent marker, then added the rainbow colour gradient using watercolour. I cut it a little bit smaller and glued it between two blue paper sheets. The upper one of course needs a window cut out. This way the back of it is blue and not a cheap white with the colours shining through.
Important note: When using watercolour on cheap paper, it can get wavy. To get it flat again simply put it under a lot of weight for a few days.
