I love all the Colorado Craft Company’s Anita Jeram releases and I have bought them along and along - as I can afford them. They bring a lot of joy to my grown children when I send cards I have made with them. They each had the little “Guess how much I love you” bunny and we read her book over and over. Using your simple water coloring techniques and these quality stamps make my cards a success every time!
Hey! This is a good one for my92-yr old dad. He doesn’t grill, he can’t fix a car, he doesn’t golf or fish. But we sure jumped on his belly a lot. Done!
Im always amazed at how great water-colouring looks when I’m done. I love these. The CCC stamps are by far my favourite. My husband and i help with a rat rescue, and these are SO adorable!
Cathy, every time I listen to your videos where you watercolour, I hear you channel your inner Bob Ross voice. Love it, always makes me smile. Love your videos. Learn a lot and have a good laugh at the same time, due to your tremendous sense of humour. Keep up the great job. Thank you
Sweet card. Love the addition of Victorian velvet - one of my favorite colors. And I’m so happy the mice have fur on their tails. It’s rats that have the scary kitch flamingo tails.
So sweet. Your pops is going to love it! Thanks for taking your time and walking me through a simple watercolor. I’m no expert either but I sure have fun in my craft room making cards.
Love this Cathy, for sure. There's just no better soft whimsy stamps better than Anita's work, it always reminds me of the old Pooh bear illustrations. Tfs hun, great work!!
I won’t win any art awards either, but ‘simple’ allows me to be a crafter!!!! I’m NOT artistic, but you always encourage me to learn so I CAN improve!!! Love your authentic videos!! You KEEP IT REAL!! THANK YOU and keep on keeping on! My family and loved ones appreciate the cards I send, despite them being mostly ‘simple’!!!! Blessings!!!!
@@czdesign I had literally done NO ART/CRAFTING until I watched some of your videos to realize MAYBE I CAN do this card-making thing!!! :). Thank you for that gift of encouragement!!
"I don't think it's gonna win any art awards, but you know what? I think it's gonna win my dad's award." And that's all that matters - it's all about Intention... 😉 CUUUTE card, Cathy!!! 👍🏻👍🏻😍
You are so funny!! What a darling card!! Am thinking of making that one for all the father's in my family...... well that's a lot of work!! Maybe I'll rethink that to making it for my son overseas, stationed in Italy! LOL Yep that scene is sooooo cute!
What an adorable card! Thanks for sharing this great release. My favorite of all is Love Art, but everything is amazing in this release. Thanks for sharing!
So adorable!! It's perfect for Father's Day. I love the idea of painting with distress inks. Thanks for sharing and stay safe! I also love this illustrator!!
This is one of my favorite images from the release. Kid mouse hopping on dad mouse's tummy is GREAT! I'm no good at watercolor, but I am working on it. Great job on your card. (PS: love the nail color!)
Using an old wood mount from a rubber stamp I made myself a couple of the tools you use to have even pressure on your MISTY. I painted them added some felt or batting so they slide nicely. For the handle I used a wooden candle cup with a wooden doll head. Works perfectly and did not cost me a penny!
Super cute card and envelope! I love the Colorado Co. Anita Jeram stamps. You have given me the courage to try water coloring. I colored my first Anita Jeram mini and it didn't turn out too bad!
Thank you for showing me how to do simple watercoloring. I have watched so many expert water colorists and I think I get too overwhelmed by trying to make a masterpiece and end up with a mess. I purchased some tiny water color brushes and am having a go at your simple techniques and using distress inks helps me a bunch! Keep up the good work, Cathy!
Cathy - soooo cute. I love every release more and more as I get poorer and poorer. I try to pick up a stamp with each release and hopefully get a die on sale. I love that you kept your coloring to basically two colors with that little pop of pink. Adorable card! Pamela A
You did a great job with the water coloring. I bought today some of the watercolor paint brush pens. Ive had my distress inks over a year. Now I know what to do with them. I'm going use my heavy cardstock paper I got on Amazon for the ink.
This is absolutely perfect. I have also discovered that if you don't have the exact shade of ink, you can use Versamark for a good tone on tone look. Thanks Cathy

Loved how you were whispering as you were painting in small areas, like you were afraid to wake the daddy mouse!
Your voice is so calming, I think I can “fire” my psychiatrist!! Lol. Seriously, you do make your art so much fun, It’s not stressful and just fun.
Hey! This is a good one for my92-yr old dad. He doesn’t grill, he can’t fix a car, he doesn’t golf or fish. But we sure jumped on his belly a lot. Done!
That belly jumper is just the cutest. A theme like this is something I’ve looked for, forever.
Cute card. Can almost hear Junior say “yippee”
That would be a great sentiment addition!

“Not meant to be Picasso” - amen! It’s to be fun & relaxing & the recipient won’t care a bit! ❤️
Cathy, you have way too much fun at work! I love it.
Mice work, Cathy Z 👍
I see what you did there!
Very nice!
😂
Thanks Cathy you make water colouring look very “doable” 😍
I so enjoy watching you paint with inks. Makes me believe I too can do this. thank you!
It is those areas where the tie-in with the envelope occurs that sets apart handmade cards from store bought cards. So cute Cathy. Thanks for sharing.
Cathy, every time I listen to your videos where you watercolour, I hear you channel your inner Bob Ross voice. Love it, always makes me smile.
Love your videos. Learn a lot and have a good laugh at the same time, due to your tremendous sense of humour. Keep up the great job. Thank you
Wow, thank you!
Such a cute card. I love her designs and I think mice are stinkin' adorable. Your dad will be so happy.
Beautiful and simple card! I also love how you stay calm when you make a mistake and walk through how you are going to fix it.
That is super cute! I love that as your painting got lighter, your voice went to a whisper. I love watching your videos.
Brings back memories of Dr. Suess "Hop on Pop" ! Love your videos!
The stamps/dies of Anita Jeram's illustrations make my heart sing! I absolutely love them. So sweet and endearing. Thank you for doing these :)
You are so welcome!
I love painting with inks, so easy and much easier to do shading.
You always make stamping, coloring, water coloring and card making look easy.
Thank you so much 😀
Sweet card. Love the addition of Victorian velvet - one of my favorite colors. And I’m so happy the mice have fur on their tails. It’s rats that have the scary kitch flamingo tails.
What a cheerful, simple card! The envelope just makes it!
Your Dad will love it.

I literally never picked up a paintbrush before I started making cards. It has pushed me to try new things!
@@czdesign I had literally done NO ART/CRAFTING until I watched some of your videos to realize MAYBE I CAN do this card-making thing!!! :). Thank you for that gift of encouragement!!
So adorable ☺️. I’ll be making this for my husband from the kids. So cute, ow to run off and buy that stamp 💸
Must be spring...you have on a going-out shirt! You have convinced me to try this technique.
Such a cute card - love your CAS look! That little guy jumping on Dad's tummy - gives everyone a giggle!
Love your cards Cathy......less is definitely more. Thank you 😊
Cathy, sometimes I think these stamps were just made for you! You are awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Oh thank you!
"I don't think it's gonna win any art awards, but you know what? I think it's gonna win my dad's award."
And that's all that matters - it's all about Intention... 😉

What an adorable card! Love the idea of decorating the envelope too.
Great card!! You make it look so easy. Your dad will love it.
Love this so simple yet adorable. I’m a crafter not an artist, you did a great job making it look so easy thank you
Yay! Thank you!
I have some little mice footprints that I love to stamp on the envelope when I have a mouse themed card.
Cathy you’re such fun. Great card. Love the magic nail polish colour change too.
Lol! Sometimes I film my intros all at the same time (when I have clean hair and a shower!) and film the videos at another time. : )
So cute. I kept saying don’t forget dad’s little ear, and apparently you heard me.😀
I love these stamps and your card and envelope. So cute.
This card is adorable! I love the way you color images.
Love this!!!!!!!! Your dad will, too!
You are so funny!! What a darling card!! Am thinking of making that one for all the father's in my family...... well that's a lot of work!! Maybe I'll rethink that to making it for my son overseas, stationed in Italy! LOL Yep that scene is sooooo cute!

I'm so glad you find me too!
Nice touch on the envelope.
Love the stamp set you used
You did a great job with the water coloring. I bought today some of the watercolor paint brush pens. Ive had my distress inks over a year. Now I know what to do with them. I'm going use my heavy cardstock paper I got on Amazon for the ink.
