Thank you so much 😊

[@freakonastick]

Great idea, and lots of practice making a batch of them! 😅 Decided to do a moon instead of a star, (cutting a circle from washi tape as my cheap practice paper didn't let go of masking fluid 😂) and drawing in a tiny sled with reindeer flying across in front of the moon. Thank you so much 😊

[@KarenRiceArt]

That's a great idea!

[@stellamayne4408]

Amazing x

Thank you so much 😊

[@pamelasilller6662]

Thanks I love it😊

[@barbaramattick6680]

I love the mood this creates. Beautifully done. I do have a question. How can we have a cloudless, starry sky and falling snow in the same painting?

[@ChantelleArts]

this is gorgeous, i love it ❤❤❤❤

[@giovannascotti488]

Lovely❤

[@KarenRiceArt]

Thank you 😊

[@K.ART_vlog]

so nice ❤😍

[@k9shfur]

What is the watercolor set you're using? Just beautiful!

[@KarenRiceArt]

I bought this a few years ago. It’s a small water, colour, paint box. I added my own pace. I don’t think you can buy this one more?

[@lucytupper69]

Very effective! 🤍

[@annehebert6959]

This is so simple but so beautiful. I do have a question though - I noticed you signed it? Is this because you are going to make prints? Would you sign it if you were just giving it to someone. I make watercolor Christmas cards every year to give to friends and some to sell - but I never sign them...? Just curious...Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@KarenRiceArt]

I signed the Christmas card because I was sending it to a friend and they made frame it and it’s nice to have a signature if you’re going to frame a painting.

[@juditszepessy8936]

I love this tutorial, Karen! In the links, How to Use White Paint, when I click on it, it says "Private".

[@KarenRiceArt]

Thank you so much! I have checked the video and have made it public so you should be able to watch it now. Hope this is helpful :-)

[@juditszepessy8936]

​, thank you!!

[@andreak770]

do you ever spray your finished work with a fixative spray? I wonder about doing that when giving a card of bookmark. Enjoyed this tutorial!

[@KarenRiceArt]

I don’t often spray my paintings. I want usually store them in my plan chest or frame them to protect them. However, you can varnish watercolours you may find this article helpful:www.jacksonsart.com/blog/2021/03/22/watercolour-varnish-can-you-make-watercolour-waterproof/

[@conniejenskindsfather979]

[@Slopoketurtle]

The neutral colour you used was charcoal?

[@KarenRiceArt]
