watercolor: fluffy christmas tree cards

[@LeahMcKenzie-pc5oc]

All of your cards are beautiful but when you showed the last one it made me smile. I think because it is even more cheery and whimsical than the others

[@carolekinsey7835]

Just magical. All very pretty, but the backgrounds just add a bit of depth...and who doesn't like stars to guide the way. 😊🌲🌳🌲🌳

[@jeannepaglio5582]

Templates aren't cheating, just less frustrating. I use them all the time for the same reasons you do.😁

[@cherylfrench9808]

I am loving the way you are sharing your process and thought in the progress! So helpful for us rookies!

[@galeweaver790]

Like the music- simple, not loud, goes down when you speak, & compliments your work.

[@lisagoetsch6785]

I love that we can see everything you do, including your water & blotting towel!

[@myozbubble]

These are darling!!!! My heart died a little bit when you said you spilled your water jar on them.

[@jeannegillette155]

I also love the larger ormaments.Shows off metallic paints better.All fun!thanks.

[@heikem.2569]

Hi, I wanted to learn to paint watercolors. Through you I got to know the doddle. I love it. Thank you very much, so I was able to transform watercolors from ugly to beautiful. Thank you for the many hours that I can watch you. I painted the simple trees and sent them as a greeting. I love to do that. Sending love this christmas Bye mausss

[@ipsitaparida4471]

The purple pink one is definitely my favourite I love the vibes

[@debdance2502]

Love them all! I don’t do Christmas cards as a rule but I’m very tempted to do a few of these for very special friends. Thank you I find your art inspiring and your commentary soothing

[@CIMMER14]

I love them all! The night scenes are more colorful.

[@tanyaharris7514]

I couldn't possibly pick one for a favourite...they are all so lovely 💕

[@kathyr7114]

I love the night scene. Peaceful.

[@lynneodonnell8353]

I love them all, but I prefer the ones without the defined edges for the border. You are amazing!

[@lechat8533]

Ceecee, you`re a rock... If I spilled my water over such beauties I`d get a nervous attack. How can one pick a favorite out of these?? I can`t,... sorry.

[@FormerDelusional]

They’re all lovely, but I especially love the night scene cards.

[@victoriab1370]

Really loved this video! It boggles my mind how anyone could not like this. You have no idea what an inspiration you are for my daughter and I , we try and "do" art everyday! Thank you

[@forthosewhoiswithGod]

Oh noooooo. I’m so sorry they got ruined. It’s such a whimsical and beautiful artwork. Thank you for sharing it!

[@margaretpinsent6388]

I love them both, and i think adding the red to the trees was genius. Thanks for this. M🌷

[@crystalwatts4138]

beautiful! Really like the ragged edged with the gold borders.

[@cynthiaemerick9517]

I like them all but the ones without background are ny fav because the tree stands out more.

[@lindaepstein7736]

Wow, I love all of these cards. My favorites are the night scenes, and I love that dry brush technique. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@jeannegillette155]

Like the Payne's gray with mauve,pink background but all pretty.Will teach to my three granddaughters .They live to paint!!!

[@sheripalmer3192]

Each and every one is so beautiful and unique. No favorites here

[@marieroussel4086]

Oh, the choice is difficult, they are all précieux, I liked the way that each one is unique. I particularly liked one of the last ones shown on the video where the tree is green and blue, but that's only because you asked us to choose. I love them all.

[@creationsceecee]

merci beaucoup, Marie!

[@marieroussel4086]

You are welcome. You are a great inspiration to me.

[@dorothyziemann8592]

My favorite is the green tree we watched you make. It is gorgeous

[@barbaraeklund4822]

The last one with the blue and green hue was my favorite

[@annelouise4639]

So beautiful! I love the green and turquoise night time one you showed us in the video, and I also adore the torn-edge paper ones, especially the blue-green tree with a red background on the cream card.😊

[@helencheadle5285]

Love the night scene….can almost smell the cold frosty air mixed in with pine smells…..they are all lovely, but yes…night scene with stars and moon is typical Christmas night to me. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙋‍♀️💐

[@purplenanna1272]

Oh my goodness,I love them all,but in particular the ones you showed at the end with the plainer background and shadowing under the tree.All that then you knocked over the water jar! NOooooooo X

[@KendraLock]

My favorite you ask? All of them! Very nice.

[@lindalopizzo8221]

Can’t possibly pick a favorite the are all beautiful

[@jaynemoxam420]

Thank you so much for sharing ,I have made this card for my granddaughter to put her christmas money in, she has cerebral palsy and such a special girl x

[@Lesley22]

These are lovely. My favourite is the first green tree. I shall definitely have a go at this dry brushing technique. It looks fun 😊

[@pw4075]

So hard to choose a favorite. They are all so beautiful. I am drawn to those with the torn edges because of their handmade look. But I'm sure receiving anyone of them would bring joy to the recipient . .

[@GriffithsJacqueline]

The last one shown is my favourite & the pinky with grey were really lovely. Thanks for some great inspiration 💝

[@bettylynnschwab8334]

I loved the very last card you shared with us. It looked to me like a little baby tree stretching to be like the "grown up" trees all around his card!

[@cherigreen4471]

Great job as always and the music and your voice are so relaxing! I love your work! So sorry about the water accident, but at least you have on video. XO

[@creationsceecee]

thank you, Cheri! i was able to recover some of them, trim them a bit and glue them unto other card bases. all is not lost!

[@TheDunroaminfarm]

I love the blue and green tree with the red trim

[@juliannmorris6478]

They are all so wonderful I can’t choose one favorite.

[@11Krysma]

You make every painting look so nice and easy to make. All of them are beautiful 😊

[@annitimmermans2434]

I find the ‘black’ tree, nightvision, the most beatiful! But I too like them all!

[@korbynkolton7969]

Instablaster...

[@studybuddy36]

Plz made some more videos with cards. It's fun n super cozy to see you paint.

[@susanb5058]

Oh wow these are all just so adorable and beautiful! I love everything about them. No way I can pick a favorite! I really do love the way you did that gradation on the pinkish sky tho, its just amazing. Thank you Ceecee, you have really inspired me!!! 😍

[@sheribeaudreau8376]

The second card you made really illustrated your point about using the proper brush. Great info for a beginner!

[@frandelarosa7871]

I love them all, but my favorite is the Payne’s grey tree! They are gorgeous and you make it look so simple.

[@Mikesbite]

I like the Paynes grey one best. But they are all gorgeous

[@edithtsacle5257]

My favorites are "all of them" 😍 Thank you!

[@TariHuffaker]

I love the simple trees on the highly textured paper with torn edges. But almost ALL of you works are on my favorites list.

[@doriweishaar4901]

Perfectly lovely !!! They're all my favorite lol the red border is one that I'll be making. I love that there are tiny details in the ornaments/ stars 🤗 they're understated and just beautiful. Thank you for your videos!! and I'm so sorry your water jar spilled 😕we all live and learn eh ? Taught me to remember/ think about water placement !

[@littleredwagonstudio]

that's like choosing one of your kids as a fav....nope cant do it....BUT....I do like the simplicity of the no back ground...very creative trees!! A touch of whimsy =) biggest hugs...stephie

[@creationsceecee]

:-) thanks, Stephie! i do like the ones without the background too. have a wonderful week!

[@karinedesfosses3678]

I love the one with the night scene and the one without a background as well!

[@ruqaiyaarfeeansari]

Nice... Checkout #ArtGlimpse

[@carmenlanglois6466]

Hard to choose the best. They are very nice. I do like traditional colors for Christmas.

[@lynnrush7166]

I don’t think using a template is ‘cheating’. The cards are beautiful.

[@emilyhird2332]

I am so glad I found this video! Love the paintings, very relaxing video and you made me laugh! You reminded me of myself especially the spilling! The amount of times I have spoiled something at the end! I also don’t like perfect and my art is more relaxed, can’t think of the word but can’t do straight lines! Thanks - Louise and Emily ❤

[@tracystarling3280]

Wow, they’re all really beautiful. I love watching you! You make it seem so easy.

[@55lindaloveridge]

They are all so beautiful,but my favourite is the green one ☝🏼 💞

[@lindatheodore9314]

I'm a new subscriber and so happy I found your channel, these are beautiful and I really love how you made the trees! The metallic paints are gorgeous.

[@creationsceecee]

thanks and welcome to the channel!

[@jo-sully-anne2418]

What a beautiful attitude after the water jar spillage. Bless you

[@ASoulsHeartbeat]

Love watching, and now you have this beginner thinking maybe I could do these too! Pick a favorite, how do you do that? I loved the first two but you know when you showed the cards with the backgrounds that you hadn’t taped off, just freeformed, I liked those better. And the one with no background just the shading under the tree and the line art border. Well, that was a winner too, so my favorite, hmm I think it numbers ten ir so 🥰🥰. So sorry about the water spill. Sounds really normal for my crafty table. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring. Patti

[@judymccarthy9423]

I'm so sorry your water jar tipped over.I would have cried with frustration! Thank you for this video Shel xx I love them all. Love the dry brush technique.

[@christinetempleton7657]

Once you put a wash down always best to leave it alone, no matter what the temptations are. You do have a nice technique but that helps. Lovely cards!

[@janevance1694]

I like the last one light blue but they are all nice!

[@geoffsansom]

Why would anyone thumb this down . It's absolutely stunning ❤️

[@ssoozee]

I absolutely agree! My gosh, these cards ARE stunning. Such talent and artistry. 💖

[@hollysnow5290]

The likes far out number…

[@krislozano0703]

Has to be a “misclick”!,,

[@dianadevlin3717]

Love watching you work. I like the music you chose too, not irritating or too loud, but relaxing. Tfs!

[@sweetpea6144]

I especially like the last ones you showed with the wavey background paper & irregular edges. What’s the correct name of this paper? Thanks so kindly CeeCee! 🙋🏻

[@creationsceecee]

thanks, Cathy. the ones with the torn edges are from handmade paper i brought from a local shop, La Papeterie St-Armand. they don't have an online store unfortunately.

[@amyschemidt7337]

The irregular edge is called a “deckle edge” so try searching for that. I agree, it’s so pretty!

[@sweetpea6144]

Amy Schemidt - thanks Amy

[@DianaSanuth]

These were fun MY favorite is the one with the red border behind it on the card, Love it!

[@debrabartman6749]

I love them all and can’t select a favorite. I can’t wait to try this. Thank you so much!

[@margohill3149]

This is the perfect year to put a little more energy into our holiday greetings to our friends, neighbors, and relatives.

[@mermiefasmart1387]

Being that you asked, my favourite is the one you wrote "Merry Christmas" on.

[@sherryleggett1612]

I love the night scenes. I wouldn’t have thought about using a pink sky. I really like the deckle edge ones.

[@burrowscarol]

I like that every one is different. Everyone gets an original!

[@Nicoleclog]

They are all beautiful , but the one with the green tree I watched you paint is one of my favorite !

[@lindajohnston759]

Oh Ceecee, to be like you. You make it look so simple........ I love you and your work. You seem to be in better place now. I am so glad. I'm gonna go try to emulate my hero some more......! lol

[@barbaralassiter259]

How can you not love them all? I do and my favorite is the very last one you showed at the end, and the green tree in the video is my second choice.

[@jamesward5367]

The one with the green tree and white background is amazing. You are so talanted.

[@marieanderson6311]

The last one you showed and the one with the red border. I can not wait to do fluffy trees!!!! Thank you!

[@elizabethjones2088]

I love the happy holidays one and the one without the background x Thanks for sharing Love from Scotland

[@jasonlytton9672]

Thanks for this inspiration! Classy cards.. ! And simple enough for a complete amateur like me!

[@marykhavelka8875]

Such clever designs! Can't choose just one; but prefer the pink/lavender background w/blue trees and irregular outlines. Also find the last one one with white background/red & gold outline to be my favorite.. Love your work!!

[@studybuddy36]

I loved all but i loved more the two you made in the video. Though all are amazing.

[@carolaschulz578]

Loved the very last one you showed!

[@shaustin22]

I love the grey tree. Thanks so much for your videos. Please don’t ever stop 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@mumfymam]

My fave is the tree alone with the red n cream mat & layering backgrounds. Very simple and effective cards, thanks for sharing.

[@collectionsbyink965]

These are the prettiest cards I have ever seen!!!

[@jeannehill350]

All the carda are trulli amazing! I prefer the night cards

[@tracyjones1344]

Love all of those trees. Gorgeous work. I did love the tree with no background. Simple but very elegant. I’m so sorry you spilled water on your beautiful creations. I would have cried for sure.

[@WellOfEchoes]

Oh Ceecee! The water spill! 🥺😫🙌🏼🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m clumsy too! Your cards are really beautiful. Thank you for the tutorial. It’s way too hard to pick a favourite. I love the two you painted for their colours, but I also love the ones with a more freehand edge, and the one I saw where you’d painted the ground also. 🥰🤩

[@brendacollinsdeeks7268]

Oh no, spilling the water is exactly the kind of thing that I do on a regular basis! I'm so sorry you couldn't save your beautiful cards. My favourite is the happy holidays one you did in the demo but they are all so lovely.

[@jacquedaniel728]

I think I like the night scenes. Shows more contrast. The vivid metallic is also a great contrast.

[@omurortaovali3851]

I loved the idea and how you reacted even after your water bottle knocked over and ruined your paintings. I started following you just now. 😊

[@jennitaylor]

I love the uneven edges with gold trim and the purple trees. Thanks for sharing.

[@bonnierosendale]

These are lovely! I am so sorry you lost some by spilling the water jar! I know how frustrating that is. My favorite it the first one you showed on the handmade paper with an either tan or greenish tan paper under it and the gold around the edge. I really loved them all, but really liked the handmade paper ones. I love watching your videos, CeeCee. They are real "stress relievers" and inspirational. Thank you!

[@nans969]

Both are very pretty. Even with the white on the darker tree.

[@Ninmayah]

I love the ones before all the decorations, minimalistic and poetic. Especially the dark one with rose gold dots 😍.

[@dawnkarasaki6172]

I really like the ragged edge cards and really.like the red dots on the trees. Everything needs a bit of sparkle!❄️

[@iowagreen8932]

I especially love the night scene on handmade paper...beautiful! But they are all beautiful.

[@Angie-pl3uw]

I have 55 cards to make for 2021. These will definitely be amongst them. Thank you for sharing your talent!

[@punjabpainting2002]

amazing work my dear friend , you are so impressive , have a beautiful day .

[@MultiRusty50]

I loved them both but my favourite is the dark tree. Many thanks

[@suebarber7477]

This is such a perfect set up! I can see exactly what you are doing, so very helpful thank you. I have missed your tutorials, I hope will continue to do some more. Great to see you come back last week.
