I love painting with you! I just started watercolor just before the holidays. Basically because of the covid.., so I didn't feel so isolated. I have surprised myself at what I am capable of and that is because of your excellent techniques you teach. Thanks for being here!😉

[@nancyann3335]

I now will use these ideas for all my cards! Cards are so expensive to buy and these are like little works of art and more personal. Thanks for sharing!💕

[@TaraMonsterMakes]

I really love how these cards turned out. They have such a handmade feel compared to those at the store 😍

[@darleneplant.6284]

These are so bright and cheerful! I am going to make some to have on hand for birthdays.

[@darnelleechols8556]

These are wonderful to have on hand when the time tip toes up on you. And the time seems to sneak up on me almost every year. :( Thanks, Ellen. 😘

[@jeaninehinckel77]

Darnelle, I’m right there with you. Happens to me all the time.

[@nancymiess3412]

I liked the music too, beautiful!

[@redparrot53]

These cards are awesome, they look so professional, great job Ellen!!

[@angelapage4330]

Simple but so effective. I love these. Thank you

[@Shilo2020]

Such cute cards. I'm painting the candle card now for a friend's upcoming birthday. My kids also love my hand made cards for their celebrations.

[@susanb5058]

These are absolutely adorable! 😍 My favorite whimsical style. Thanks as always Ellen!

[@masterhide]

You always know exactly what I need to paint! Lol my friend asked for several cards to have on hand and I've been running out if ideas. Finally had a chance to sit down & watch this & I'm so excited to paint tomorrow!!

[@nancyskinner5207]

These are wonderful. You have got me painting again. It’s interesting how I can follow along and do exactly what you do, yet mine look different. I think each person has their own way of handling the brush and paint and water. Working with you sparked an old memory of my mother drawing bunnies for us children to help us sit still and quiet. They were very unique. I’m doing an Easter card based on her method. Of course mine look different. Thank you for what you do.

[@bethdamon3136]

You rock! Hello from Chicago! I am not artistic but am having so much fun making your cards. I did break down and buy a Princeton No 8 instead of my Walgreens paint brushes!! My adult kids loved my cards and I am just starting!!! Thanks!

[@valeriechapman3943]

Thanks Ellen - Such fun - I just love all your ideas. Thanks for sharing.

[@LadyJaneG]

Beautiful, Easy and FUN...looking forward to doing these with my grandaughter!

[@youtubelibrary_10]

I discovered your channel yesterday. I love all the cards, but my fav is the birthday candles. Becca from the happy ever crater channel copied your painting without mentioning you. I did not watch the copied version, I decided to watch your video. :)

[@roxanneklinger3828]

adding the ink pen at the end really made the cake card and to all of them. Nice.

[@sandralarsen5650]

Excellent‼️

[@katrinahough290]

Had to laugh when you were talking about cake colors. My grandson's 5th birthday cake was his design... a blue cake, with Mickey Mouse being chased by sharks. It was a beautiful shade of blue, with Mickey's head, mainly nose and ears, and his tail, and 5 shark fins following him. Bubbles and all, it was so pretty, we hated to cut it, but it was delicious!

[@YCauser]

Thanks for these ideas. So creative!
