Happy Friday, all! Today's video is part of a blog hop introducing the latest collaboration stamp set from Hero Arts. The new stamp set is with Gina K Designs and it's gorgeous! The Friendship Blooms stamp set has the most beautiful flowers!
I decided to create an envelope using the large floral image in the stamp set. Since I planned to watercolor the image, I first created my own envelope out of 90 lb. watercolor paper (which folds easier than heavier watercolor paper) and an envelope punch board from We R Memory Keepers.

WOW - If I got mail like that - I wouldn't want to open it. Beautiful work

[@kimh.5272]

I'm honored to be receiving your Gorgeous work. Can't wait to see it up close and personal. Thank you. ❤❤❤

[@oheck5570]

That is a most beautiful envelope worthy of becoming an heirloom.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Stunning! I can’t imagine getting an envelope like this in the mail! Thanks for doing the painting in real time. This is a great tool for us beginners to reference often.

[@mayloo2137]

With detailed painting like this, it pays to be patient (and use the right small brush too!) Makes what you're painting more realistic.

[@maryroe1125]

Kristina, it is evident that you were born to do this work. Your artwork is truly museum worthy! Thanks for always including tips while giving us insight to your process. Another brilliant tutorial! Blessings💜xx

[@katherinebannister9838]

Why is there no "love" button for this?!

[@denisekinsley3554]

That envelope boggles the mind - breathtaking!

[@catharinegenaw2381]

This is just beyond beautiful! Kim is very fortunate indeed to be the recipient of this piece of fine art. This would be framed and enjoyed daily if it were making its way to me! 😀. Thank you as always Kristina!

[@lynnbulwinkle2304]

Sooo beautiful. You are amazing! Thank you for sharing. The Lord has certainly blessed you with an abundance of talent.

[@barblibrarian]

So, so lovely. It has to be a pretty special person to get an envelope that takes that long to paint. However, I can imagine there is a wonderful sense of accomplishment, as well as the joy of creating, when you paint something that beautiful.

[@barbaradunlop6444]

This is one of the best demonstration of watercolor I have seen. You talked us through it. That makes so much difference to me. Thanks, Kristina. I LOVE your work!!!

[@DonnaMSchmid]

Absolutely stunning, Kristina! I'm just can't stop staring at it! GORGEOUS!

[@carolpearce7755]

WOW! I would hang this in a frame on my wall ---- even if I did it --- let alone receive something like this. AMAZING! You are so talented - thanks for sharing.

[@mrscms831]

OH MY! what could you possibly write in that card that would have more impact than the envelope?!? So Beautiful.

[@Artiefrog]

Gorgeous envelope. I wouldn’t want to open afraid I’d tear design.

[@elainewinstead1115]

Oh Kristina!, If I were right beside you I’d give you the sweetest hug and a standing ovation because I am speechless at it’s beauty and overwhelmed by your talent. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@spremier9626]

This is so beautiful and watching you color is really having a calming effect (I have it on mute because I'm multi-tasking). Thank you so much for sharing your talent. It's too pretty for words.

[@sooart5333]

Your paintings are always lovely. I am inspired to see your painting. Thank you.

[@carolynblumhagen4966]

It would be hard to open up an envelope like this. Wow oh wow!

[@andrealavigne7824]

Thank you for the tip about walking away and just doing the painting a bit at a time. I have never thought to do that, surprisingly enough! I can see the benefit, though. Of course, when I used to paint landscapes & still lifes, I would never do an entire piece in one sitting. But I guess I've always figured, since a card (or envelope) is a smaller "canvas," I should do it all at once. I may rethink that now, though. I really love how your flowers & leaves came out, Kristina! This envelope is truly a work of art. I like how you did the flowers in two different shades of red, too, even though they're in the same bunch. Gives a nice effect. Thanks so much for sharing, & have a wonderful day! :)

[@lisahodgson2133]

Absolutely gorgeous!! So jealous of the recipient. Lol

[@jennifermcguireink]

your work is magical!

[@kwernerdesign]

😘

[@arlenemurphy804]

I’d worry it would not get to its destination. Beautiful

[@janeastwick1418]

So beautiful! Not sure I will do this on an envelope but I will certainly try it on a card! You are one of the most patient people I know, three hours! Wow!

[@dotydiva]

Beautiful.. I love the colors and what a lucky lady to get this cherished envelope.

[@carolestrawn8755]

I love the look of watercolor and have learned so much from watching your videos. The envelope is much too beautiful to mail something in. The idea of the recipient ripping it open makes my heart hurt. I can't wait to get this stamp. I fell in love with it the first moment that I saw it.

[@teresadoyle1396]

WOW Kristina, this is incredible! What a beautiful stamp for water colouring. I am totally motivated to water colour now.

[@tarasnow-burch7203]

I really don't need anymore stamps or ink but this is just one that is too good not to own. How amazingly beautiful it really is. Thank you for sharing it and your talent.

[@judithsigler9644]

STUNNING, Kristina! Time-consuming, yes, but WOW, the result is JUST GORGEOUS! Just so appreciate the “extra care” at the beginning of the project, so helpful n’ informative~~ESPECIALLY “having patience”!! Haha! Would really love to see more on the Micro Glaze, too! Not only love the STAMP SET but think the envelope is definitely worth a frame, too! :-)). Personally, I like the lines peeking through the image as I think it helps to define them even more without “bleeding” so as to damage the design. Since it IS a time-consuming project, I could even see this being done as a home decor piece/gift~~and this LARGE stamp would be “perfect” for that as well! You’ve got my mind reeling and I’m inspired! TFS n’ HAPPY STAMPIN’ n’ CREATIN’! Have a BEAUTIFUL day! :-))

[@ckcrafts6483]

-sigh- i can watch this all day

[@craftybamafan]

[@tolebearlucy6936]

I love it Kristina! How wonderful to be the one receiving that! You inspire me to always do a little extra onto my envelopes and also wonder about the postal workers reaction. If it were me I would love seeing and delivering it ❤️
