I love your videos and have already tried many things from them (which is not always easy, since a lot of stuff is hardly, if at all, available here in Germany, especially stamp sets with big flowers). This, however, was exceptionally inspiring. I have never before thought of trying watercolor techniques because I'm really bad when it comes to painting. So when I tried this, I was so surprised how easy it is and how beautiful the results are, despite my lack of skill. I have also combined this with hot foiling (with my Cricut and the foil quill tool), which looks very pretty, because it gives this shiny accent. 😊

With SO many new mediums coming into the card making world, honestly I’ve felt overwhelmed. I’m not an artist but love making cards. Since I’ve taken my time to purchase different medium products, I’ve wanted to learn how to have fun with them. Your video is FANTASTIC and it fits my bill too! You’re a perfect teacher for me. Many thanks!! 😊💖

@deborahlee52 3 жыл бұрын

Absolutely effortless. It adds to the tranquility effect of creating the card. The one statement you make that really hits home is, “It doesn’t have to be perfect!” When you can accept that fact, you can really enjoy this craft. Thanks Jennifer for your very realistic view. After watching your videos, I always sigh and say to myself how relaxing ‘creating’ my own cards using all these different techniques makes me.

You have given my the confidence to give it a go once again....Thank you!!

Very striking and effective. Love how spontaneous they look and free and easy the way watercolors should look . You do things in a special way and that makes things come out great. For one you are doing them loosely and that really looks good for water colors. They fee free and easy and that's the way you did them and it shows. Free and Easy. Thanks for shoeing that it's OK to do them that way . I like water coloring when I can do them this way too. I don't like tight coloring. It makes me nervous and it shows in the end results. I like easy and fun..................pat
