    These are charmingly simple yet somehow sophisticated as well - I think it's the choice of colors and the lack of fussiness and tweaking. Lovely!

    Thank you for this video! I used to make my Christmas cards and lost track of that over the years. This will be a great way to get back to that again this year, and simple enough to keep it fun. Like many creatives, oh, sometimes I can complicate things....LOL!

    These are lovely. I too used to make my own cards. This year I made a couple but decided they weren’t good enough. But next year, after getting back to practicing my water coloring (and I do mean it takes constant practice) I hope to get back to it again next year. Thank you for this video. You have encouraged me to begin again.

    Cece, I LOVE you! Last year I made 100 hand made watercolor cards and plan to do the same this year. This layout is EXACTLY what I need because I need something I can mass produce but with enough variety that I don’t hate them by the end. Totally making these! Love love love your videos for the detail you provide and how calming your voice is. I feel like I’m sitting with a friend who’s showing me her paintings! 😊💕

    I really enjoy your tutorial the way you talk and you tell about what you're doing I love that because then it helps me understand what you're doing a little bit better when I play music it just doesn't doesn't make sense to me I can see what they're doing but it just doesn't penetrate like what you're doing that is absolutely beautiful and as a watercolor artist myself I've never seen this technique before but boy I'm going to try it

    WOW. 🤩 You make this look so easy. I guarantee if I try this, my triangles won’t look like normal triangles. And the colors would all be blended. It looks like so much fun. I have never tried watercolor before. And I am definitely not an artist. Crafty, but not artistic. However…your video sure tempted me to try 😊. I will be watching more of your videos tonight. I am glad You-tube recommended your channel.
