VIDEO: Watercolored Ornaments + OCC Giveaway

Hello! I have a couple of fun things to share with you today.

A video and a giveaway!

Holiday Card Workshop 2014

Making a card list and checking it twice? Online Card Class instructors Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire—and friends—are here to help you send handmade cards to everyone on your list this year. That’s right—it’s time for Holiday Card Workshop 2014! Join us for a very merry class packed with ideas and card-making know-how. With loads of stamping, die-cutting, layering, coloring, and more showcased in a variety of card styles, you’re sure to walk away inspired for the holidays! All cards will be included in how-to videos... with over 17 in total!

I am honored to be one of the guest instructors for this awesome class! And just to get you warmed up, I thought I'd share a how-to video right now for recreating these watercolored ornaments.

I apologize in advance for the length of the video. But this was highly requested and I wanted to be sure to pack as much instruction and information as possible in there.

Hope you enjoy!

Or, if you prefer, I also shared some tips on how to create a looser painting style and adding some extra touches just to switch things up like the card pictured below.
