    Templates aren't cheating, just less frustrating. I use them all the time for the same reasons you do.😁

    All of your cards are beautiful but when you showed the last one it made me smile. I think because it is even more cheery and whimsical than the others

    Just magical. All very pretty, but the backgrounds just add a bit of depth...and who doesn't like stars to guide the way. 😊🌲🌳🌲🌳

    Like the music- simple, not loud, goes down when you speak, & compliments your work.

    Love them all! I don’t do Christmas cards as a rule but I’m very tempted to do a few of these for very special friends. Thank you I find your art inspiring and your commentary soothing

  • @marieroussel4086
    @marieroussel4086 5 лет назад +1

    Oh, the choice is difficult, they are all précieux, I liked the way that each one is unique. I particularly liked one of the last ones shown on the video where the tree is green and blue, but that's only because you asked us to choose. I love them all.

  • @juliannmorris6478

    Hi,
    I wanted to learn to paint watercolors. Through you I got to know the doddle. I love it.
    Thank you very much, so I was able to transform watercolors from ugly to beautiful.
    Thank you for the many hours that I can watch you.
    I painted the simple trees and sent them as a greeting. I love to do that.
    Sending love this christmas
    Bye mausss

    These are darling!!!! My heart died a little bit when you said you spilled your water jar on them.

  • @ritademetzer807
    @ritademetzer807 Год назад

    Really hard to decide a favourite, but I think I like the green tree with the turquoise background just a little better.

  • @lynneodonnell8353

    I love them all, but I prefer the ones without the defined edges for the border. You are amazing!

  • @emilyhird2332
    @emilyhird2332 Год назад +1

    I am so glad I found this video! Love the paintings, very relaxing video and you made me laugh! You reminded me of myself especially the spilling! The amount of times I have spoiled something at the end! I also don’t like perfect and my art is more relaxed, can’t think of the word but can’t do straight lines! Thanks - Louise and Emily ❤

  • @crystalwatts4138

    Oh Ceecee! The water spill! 🥺😫🙌🏼🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m clumsy too! Your cards are really beautiful. Thank you for the tutorial.
    It’s way too hard to pick a favourite. I love the two you painted for their colours, but I also love the ones with a more freehand edge, and the one I saw where you’d painted the ground also.
    🥰🤩

    @annelouise4639 5 лет назад +3

  • @pw4075
    @pw4075 5 лет назад +1

    So hard to choose a favorite. They are all so beautiful. I am drawn to those with the torn edges because of their handmade look. But I'm sure receiving anyone of them would bring joy to the recipient .

    Once you put a wash down always best to leave it alone, no matter what the temptations are. You do have a nice technique but that helps. Lovely cards!

  • @marykhavelka8875
    @marykhavelka8875 5 лет назад +2

    Such clever designs! Can't choose just one; but prefer the pink/lavender background w/blue trees and irregular
    outlines. Also find the last one one with white background/red & gold outline to be my favorite.. Love your work!!

  • @debrabartman6749

  • @ASoulsHeartbeat
    @ASoulsHeartbeat 5 лет назад +6

    Love watching, and now you have this beginner thinking maybe I could do these too! Pick a favorite, how do you do that? I loved the first two but you know when you showed the cards with the backgrounds that you hadn’t taped off, just freeformed, I liked those better. And the one with no background just the shading under the tree and the line art border. Well, that was a winner too, so my favorite, hmm I think it numbers ten ir so 🥰🥰. So sorry about the water spill. Sounds really normal for my crafty table. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring. Patti

  • @tracyjones1344
    @tracyjones1344 4 года назад

    @sweetpea6144 5 лет назад +13

    I especially like the last ones you showed with the wavey background paper & irregular edges. What’s the correct name of this paper? Thanks so kindly CeeCee! 🙋🏻

    • @creationsceecee
      @creationsceecee  5 лет назад +2

      thanks, Cathy. the ones with the torn edges are from handmade paper i brought from a local shop, La Papeterie St-Armand. they don't have an online store unfortunately.

    • @amyschemidt7337
      @amyschemidt7337 5 лет назад +1

      The irregular edge is called a “deckle edge” so try searching for that. I agree, it’s so pretty!

  • @dianeandbrad529
    @dianeandbrad529 5 лет назад +2

    These came out gorgeous!
    I did see somewhere that it's a common misconception/habit after prewetting the paper, to get more water on your brush before getting paint. If your paper is already wet (either from prewetting or already having wet layers), try to just get a little little paint on the brush and apply it without additional water. See which technique is a preference for various situations. It's a hard habit to break, but I have noticed it cuts down on getting water logged paper or just getting colors watered down, etc

  • @carolyndaughton3373
    @carolyndaughton3373 Год назад

    Absolutely gorgeous! I love everything about these! The added moon and the stars are a lovely touch and it's cool you painted two cards side by side. I hand paint all of my Christmas cards and end up sending out somewhere around 80 a year. I've already started on the ones I'm sending out this year and your design will definitely be added to my favs. I'm always blown away by the time people take to send me a quick text or send a card back thanking me and appreciating that they received a hand painted card. This is somewhat of a lost art. Thank you for sharing. You're amazing!

  • @Nicoleclog
