[@2023pettales]

Super cute!

[@OceanSpiceart]

Thank you 😊

[@donnellebohnke7487]

I really love all the snowmen! Could you do simple animals..like bears or squirrels? I love how these turned out

[@OceanSpiceart]

Thanks for watching Donnelle! I will make some more this year but please check out my polar bears cards video and Christmas cards 2017 for the squirrel 🐿

[@meganesergerie5382]

Lovely!! You make it seem so easy but I don’t think I will reach this level of prowess!

[@OceanSpiceart]

It’s all about daring! The more you dare and practice the more comfortable you will feel with trying different things. Thank you for watching and keep practicing! 🎨✨

[@meganesergerie5382]

@@OceanSpiceart Thank you for your encouragement! I am practicing at this very moment. You inspired me to take my watercolors and brushes out and I am all set up at my kitchen table. 😉 I am trying to reproduce one of your snowmen! If it is good enough, I will send some some holiday wishes to some friends and family. I wish you a great holiday season! I appreciate you took the time to comment.

[@berylrose3213]

Very good, so natural.

[@OceanSpiceart]

🙏🤗❤️

[@rchfireinthebelly77]

FYI prounouce gouache like it rhymes with “squash”. That way you are helping others. If they go to store to purchase, they won’t be embarrassed when they are corrected by sales person. Enjoyed the card ideas.

[@OceanSpiceart]

Gouache comes from French and I assumed to pronounce it the same, my bad! Thank you for letting all know, now I won't sound awkward while shopping for gouache anymore, hehe :)

[@pamelastewart5700]

This was amazing!!!!

[@OceanSpiceart]

Thank you so much!! 🎨

[@robinrodgers8390]

Wonderful! Love the softness, very dreamy. This is my first time to your channel, I’ll be back! Thanks!

🙏✨Thank you!

[@texastexas8215]

Very nice work. Thanks.

[@OceanSpiceart]

Hope you had fun watching, thanks for checking out my work!

[@laurelharris9406]

I love these! I would love to see your take of a small group of forest animals around a Christmas tree! Like a fox, hedgehog, squirrel, deer?

[@OceanSpiceart]

Great idea Laurel, I might give it a try even if Christmas is very close I might just do winter paintings in general, not Christmas Cards. Thank you so much for watching! I actually had painted a deer in one of the videos 2 weeks ago, you should check it out! I also painted a squirrel for the Christmas Cards video in 2017 but never tried a Fox, would love to! 🦊

[@BarBaraWhorleyCrawfordESS]

Excellent ❤️

[@OceanSpiceart]

✨🎨Thanks for watching Barbara! 🙏

[@darleneplant.6284]

I just discovered your channel. I like that everything is well explained.

[@OceanSpiceart]

Thank you so much Darlene, I switched from writing explanations to narration after a few requests from subscribers and it’s so much better now! 🎨🤗

[@theresa_lili]

I agree

[@SewWhittle]

These are great! Do you just tape your paper to a table or is there something behind it?

[@OceanSpiceart]

I am taping all paper directly to the table for these cards. I used to have a plywood board that worked very well but somehow got lost. Thanks for watching! 🎨🤗

[@sueallen952]

It's pronounced gwash, I was laughed at in an art shop when I pronounced it like you and was promptly told how to pronounce it lol. Loved the cards

[@OceanSpiceart]

That’s funny! I guess depending on where you live it can be pronounced differently 🙂

[@momgib2000]

Your cards are so cute! I especially love the thumbprint snowman :) I'd love to see you paint some elves or gnomes (everyone wants gnomes this year lol) Thank you for your inspiration!

[@OceanSpiceart]

I see that gnomes are a must now, will give it a try on them as well and elves 🧝‍♂️. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 💭 🙂 Happy painting!

[@wendygliddon3350]

Where do you get the stamps and acrylic block, love these!

[@OceanSpiceart]

I got them from Michaels but you can find them at any arts and crafts store. They are called sentiment stamps and acrylic block.

[@theresa_lili]

Wish these were available for purchase

[@OceanSpiceart]

There have been a few requests for purchase so next year I will make sure to put them up for sale on my Etsy store, I am glad they are attracting interest! Thank you so much for watching Theresa! 🎨🎄
