You did a great job Kristina. It does feel like winter, cold and northern lights. The bears are adorable and your better than ever. I really feel this card is festive and cold like winter really is. I loved watching you paint and share all the things you've experienced. Thanks Kristina for another great Holiday card. You look so pretty and so pale. You get better with age. pat

Woohoo, love your holiday card series

[@jafountain3177]

Kristina, I get where you are completely with not being ready for the holidays. Typically, I am way ahead in my gift buying for my loved ones by now and here it is Halloween. Do not feel bad about not having your decorations up yet time is flying by it seems...some days were longer than others, but the year as flown by. Thank you for your beautiful Holiday Card Series, I have been here since day one of it! It's kind of like we grew up together through your card series. I am so, so proud of you and new line. I have a lot of your new product and love each and every one of them. The technique that you followed from the other artist to paint the trees is amazing, my blobs of trees wouldn't look like yours.

[@FluffyDragon1016]

This series has become a tradition in my holiday season! I love it! I have been looking forward to it this year, and when I saw this video pop up, I practically squealed.

[@norinemueller4588]

What a adorable card as always

[@akailas448]

So excited that this is back!

[@rennieneasey-oconnell6064]

Don’t stress about the Christmas tree. We are just glad you’re here, sharing your talent and creativity!

[@andrealavigne7824]

Awesome start to the Holiday Card Series, Kristina! And I must say - I LOVE your intro this year!!!!!!!!! The jazzy music is so upbeat, which I much prefer to low-key, "meditative" kind of music, which just ups my depression. Anyway, I also really like how your card came out. As far as snow over the bears, if they were standing in a snowy scene, they would have snow in front of them as well, so I think the "oopsie" with the gouache eating through the masking fluid worked out for the good. But I do agree that adding the snow with a white gel pen rather than paint splatters (for over the bears, that is) is much more prudent, since you don't end up with a huge drop right over an eye or something. :) Thank you for sharing this. Take care, & have a wonderful day! :)
