Get Cracking: Watercolor Scene

Hello everyone! I am excited to participate in another year of the Get Cracking on Christmas series and wicked excited to work on my stash of holiday cards throughout the year! I will continue to create holiday cards with NO STRESS, using stamps and supplies I haven’t had a chance to play with yet and experimenting with different techniques.

If you missed my Crafty Chat in January, I went over Get Cracking on Christmas. Why I do it, my approach to it, and how you can join. Catch the replay here!

Get Cracking: Watercolor Scene

I’ve always been a big fan of Winnie the Pooh, so when I saw these adorable Unity Stamps/Angie Blom designs, I knew I had to create with them. I had so much fun watercoloring this sweet scene using Distress Watercolor Pencils—they’re such a fun medium for bringing stamped images to life. I get a lot of questions about how I watercolor my images, so I thought this would be the perfect project to share during my recent LIVE. I hope it inspires you to give it a try too!

Bringing a little Hundred Acre Wood magic to my craft table today with a sweet watercolor scene—perfect for fellow Winnie the Pooh fans! I’ll be sharing the process during my LIVE, so I hope you’ll join me for some creative fun and see how it all comes together.

Learn how on YouTube LIVE

I can’t wait to share my process for this card on my YouTube channel on Tuesday May 20th at 12p ET. I hope you will join me, and remember, you can work on your holiday cards while you watch!
