Anita Jeram Illustrations Greeting Cards with Colorado Craft Company

[@dianewilliams4880]

My favorite way to color is with watercolor pencils.I love all your cards but the hamsters cards stole my heart.

[@melissa333]

I love attempting to work with watercolors. 😊

[@Yana.Smakula]

Oh yes! Watercolor requires patience, something I rarely have 😊

[@traceybartlam5940]

So cute! These characters are adorable

[@Yana.Smakula]

Glad you like them, thank you ❤

[@The1mst]

My favorite way to color is simple like yours. If I get to much color it takes away from the darling little images

[@juliereed73]

❤️ the simple coloring- but BIG impact! Will be adding these to my stash...

[@lindadinwiddie8453]

These cards are so adorable.

[@mertfritsch9839]

What a beautiful representation of this very talented illustrator! I am going to order the “Still Cozy After All These Years, Through the Love, Sweat and Tears” set for a card I plan to make for my and my husband’s 50th Wedding Anniversary FEB 26, 2021 since the traditional gift is “GOLD”...I THINK THESE ILLUSTRATIONS ARE “GOLDEN”! THANK YOU, YANA FOR YET ANOTHER WONDERFUL TUTORIAL! BE SAFE!

[@debiv7834]

Beautiful images, coloring and cards! ❤️

[@patriciacornelius1588]

So cool and such great work

[@janthomas9168]

Loved each one of these cards.

[@michellehackett7413]

My favorite way to color is colored pencils and gamsol. I always get really good results with this technique. I am so in love with all the Anita Jeram illustrations. The mice are definitely my fave. Thank you for this beautiful video.

[@cindyroman-daversa9194]

These are the sweetest♥️♥️♥️

[@adj822]

Oh my goodness... to much cuteness! What wonderful cards. Your process video has so many great tips and ideas! I'm fond of my Prismacolor pencils with illustrations like this. Thanks for sharing this new release and inspiration! 💜

[@christinekiehl4390]

I love with Anita Jeram's illustrations so much! I have two sets and working on adding more! They are so delightful! I am still a novice when it comes to coloring. Working on that.! Hope to reach your level someday!

[@Bunny_the_Rabbit]

My favorite is Lots of Love. This Bunny knows bunnies and they are so cute. I just love them. Anita Jeram is a great illustrator. I'm really sorry that Sam McBratney passed as his line of books were such great stories and beautifully illustrated by Anita Jeram. I don't have IG so I hope I'm still eligible to win. I commented on your blog and I'm already a follower.

[@bertas-cards]

[@SueLD]

Love what you created with these cute stamps. Great coloring techniques and I like the spotlight dimension.

[@sharongullikson2121]

I had never seen her illustrations, either, but I love them!!!!!! I really love the mice. I always wonder about the inside of the card, too. I love the examples, too. Your coloring looks great, so I think that you are better than you think.

[@abbym.321]

[@Yana.Smakula]

[@sueloe5705]

Love the cards Yana! Copic coloring is my favorite method of coloring right now. Thank you for sharing the coloring tips for these cards.

[@viviantongue1250]

Super cute! Love your videos and cards, Yana

[@Yana.Smakula]

Thank you, Vivian ❤

[@lorispitzer8289]

Hi, Yana - I’m so happy that you are the one showing off the new CCC release from Anita Jeram. I just adore her stamps. I have a bunch of the earlier ones released already and find them unbelievably charming. So sweet. You did a magnificent job of showcasing the new designs!! I would love to be considered for the gift you’re going to bestow on some lucky person. I like to color with colored pencils (Prismacolor) and Tombow markers. I have just recently started building up a supply of Copic markers. I only have about 25-30 of them so far, but I like them as well. I wish I understood the numbering system of Copics better. I guess I will look on Pinterest or KZbin for more info. Take care and keep sending out your lovely inspirational postings. A hug - Lori S in PA

[@MarcyM_]

These are fabulous 💜😍and your instructions are so clear and easy to follow. Thanks so much for sharing 🙏🤗

[@pamelagabrielsen4762]

Great ideas Yana - pretty colors enhance the adorable images. I like Copic coloring best for the blend ability of these fine markers.

[@suzannerussell4892]

fabulous coloring and techniques!

[@jadhikari0]

So beautiful Yana. I love coloring with copics !!!

[@AyasPaperCrafts]

Shall I praise you or Anita or Colorado craft company 😍😍😍

[@michellemurray8490]

Such clean and simple, adorable cards!

[@amyfouts9781]

So cute. Thank u 4 admitting that u r not a good colorer. I'm not a good stamper. I think u did a great job coloring. I like how u added demenision 2 places here & there not all over. Have a great day.

[@Yana.Smakula]

Thank you :) I'm glad the video was helpful.

[@maplestoryftw12]

Love these stamps.

[@janmarch5039]

What a great video....I love fussy cutting, and the way you just cut out small accent pieces to add interest to your card! I would so enjoy seeing some pictures of your life in the Ukraine...many of us will NEVER get there and would be very interested to hear your views on your country....Thanks for the idea’s !

[@Yana.Smakula]

Thank you for the suggestion! I'll try to snap some photos :) Currently it is very gloomy and gray. Winter is here, not the prettiest sight.

[@melvinnieves1964]

When I saw the preview of your video on KZbin I thought that your technique was watercolors. You did a fantastic work with this images. Thank you for sharing it. And hoping you had a wonderful new year.

[@marlenee7035]

These are beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

[@AnnaSiggaCreates]

These are adorable. 🥰

[@wendywoodhouse8533]

Lovely colouring xxx

[@patriciadixon8880]

Thank you for sharing! I am going to try the spotlight technique. Love the cards!

[@ashwyness]

Super cute!

[@patticallihan8515]

I love your cards. Your coloring is wonderful, I’ve watched you for ages and I would love to be as quick as you are coloring. I know you are speeding things up but it takes me ages. Thank you for sharing. Happy New Year Yana . ❤️

[@annettereed6146]

Such cute cards. I use my Copics for most of my coloring. I don't have all of them either.

[@joannetravis1384]

Such adorable cards, Yana!

[@joanbardee5135]

Great cards and video!!!!!!

[@nicoleengland9223]

Gorgeous!

[@heikecarlson1281]

What wonderful cards!

[@Yana.Smakula]

Glad you like them! Thank you ❤

[@lizjutila6020]

I bought the Christmas bundle after watching your video using those stamps! I am loving coloring with colored pencils so far. Your Valentines cards are adorable, thanks for the 3D ideas!

[@Yana.Smakula]

Oh I love to color with pencils too! I was cleaning out a drawer yesterday and came across my long forgotten Chameleon pencils, it's been such a long time since I used them last. Glad you liked me cards :) Thank you!

[@sallycain3716]

I love these stamps. I watercoloured some of her first release for Christmas cards and my sister has framed it! I followed the colouring on the packaging and it was simple and so effective.

[@annemartin2979]

Thank you for showing the awesome techniques for adding dimension - love the little "pops"!

[@katherineherbert]

Love your cards!

[@carolweatherspoon3005]

Adorable cards Yana!!!

[@dianawhitney3083]

I always enjoy learning more about coloring with alcohol markers. Love these images!

[@Yana.Smakula]

Thank you, I'm glad this video was useful :)

[@dianestricker8552]

Already subscribed to both. I love your videos. Great cards.

[@rock5149]

Beautiful ❤️

[@deannaberman908]

I did try to sign up on their instagram but for whatever reason could not. I do love your spotlight technique and will certainly be using it as I love to fussy cut and really like the "pop" it adds to your cards.

Adorable 🥰

[@ink.therapy.designs]

So creative, Yana! You are pure magic!

[@rhondaschaffer1297]

Yana, I love all your work so thanks so much for sharing your talent with us. However I would love to know how you keep your nails looking so fabulous making cards as I have to constantly work on my nails b/c I am always chipping them or cracking them with the die cuts. I dont wear tips or acrylic as my nails are natural but they take a toll after a good craft session.

[@tracyrenner9490]

Absolutely adorable cards! Happy New Year❤️❤️❤️

[@leeminer1939]

Absolutely adorable stamps.

[@pamcarr4963]

beautiful cards, love the spotlight technique, but never done it myself

[@susanmeadows8309]

I like the packaging giving examples on how to color the images.. I struggle with picking colors. Her images are so cute.

[@megs1768]

These are adorable! I LOVE all these sets and your coloring is amazing! I need to watercolor! I'm scared of it! HA! Thanks for inspiration to try :)

[@audreymeyer2266]

Such sweet critters so creatively colored! Currently I’m into my Zig Clean Color markers💜

[@Yana.Smakula]

Mmmm, I never ever tried zigs. I remember when they first came out I had them on my wish list, but I had so many other coloring mediums I never purchased a set. Maybe I finally should! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, thank you!

[@lesliedoerhoefer6030]

I just love theses cards. They are cute and simple and that’s what I like. Sooooo sweet!

[@patriciacornelius1588]

LOVE YOU TOO

[@cathymorris8072]

Gorgeous cards! I love your Spotlight technique and can't wait to try it! I have been practicing your copic/alcohol ink technique. I need more practice!! I feel most successful with colored pencils & gamsol. Love, love these sets of Anita Jeram's. I also love her book illustrations. The books make great gifts.

[@Yana.Smakula]

I bought some gamsol several years ago, still haven't tried it. I really need to give it a go, I love coloring with pencils, haven't done that in a loooooong time. Glad you enjoyed this video, thank you!

[@hshandmakes]

these cards are so sweet! love your spotlight dimensions, what a fun technique . i see that often in children's books . tfs!

[@lindadouglas7429]

I bought the larger Christmas Stamps from Colorado Craft that I really like. Glad I found this company. Thanks for the video.

[@marym8747]

Love your videos!

[@christymalone5191]

So adorable! I love the way all of these cards turned out.

[@Yana.Smakula]

Thank you! I adore Anita's illustrations ❤

[@watchit811]

Lovely cards! That dimension looks so cool!

[@lindaanderson7375]

These are so sweet, perfect for Valentines or anniversary. Such darling images and sentiments !

[@margarets7066]

These cards are adorable. Love the added dimension!

[@buffalban]

Beautiful, sweet cards. I'm so in love with the Anita Jeram stamps and dies. I try to grab one or two when on sale. I think your coloring is magical and make these adorable images come to life. I learn so much from all your video's - foiling (still new to me), coloring (I,m getting closer to thinking that I may need to add Copics to my wishlist) and how your cards end up so lovely. Who wouldn't love having a card like this in their mailbox??. Thank you for sharing your never ending talent, it is so much appreciated! Pamela from PA

[@Yana.Smakula]

thank you so much, Pamela! I am reading your comment and smiling. Thank you for making my day brighter.

[@mccseq]

These cards are so cute. There’s just something about the illustrations as well as your beautiful coloring.

[@sibylleherbe8260]

Absolutely adorable cards. Thank you.

I really need to try your coloring technique! I am in love with it. Anita's designs love too, truly magical! Yesterday I also colored her image with the deer and bunny! :)

[@jenm1874]

Absolutely adorable! I love the clean look. Question; Can you tell us where to get the pink heart embellishments? The link was for black & white, but there were no pink. Thanks!

[@carolestrawn8755]

Well, there went my resolution to not buy any new stamps this month. Placed my order for the entire release while you were still talking. LOL. I adore the Anita Jeram animals and your cards are just precious. Your coloring is pretty amazing in my opinion and I love the few simple additions to make each card unique.

[@Yana.Smakula]

Your comment made me smile, Carole. I didn't make any New Year resolutions, I hardly ever do. I'm glad you liked my cards. Anita's illustrations are amazing. Somehow the stamps with her illustrations feel like collectibles, precious collectibles

[@cindy90305]

Love your cards Yana. Simple but so cute. Happy new year!

[@chrisbjornstedt]

Thanks for "permission" not to reinvent the color wheel. I struggle with ideas/colors and this is great. And the images are adorable and make my heart smile. Happy New Year!

[@Yana.Smakula]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MyCraftPantry]

Absolutely adorable cards, Yana! 💖

[@reginaroach]

I like to watercolor, although I'm a real beginner!

[@Yana.Smakula]

I like to watercolor too, but I am too impatient for that coloring medium :)

[@colleendienstbier5763]

I’m looking forward to learning to use my watercolor pencils this year and these are the perfect images to learn with!💜

[@stampinghappinessruthwarei7830]

Hi Yana, beautiful cards as always. May I please ask which colours you used on the hamsters?

[@christinecolton2596]

I wish that you would show the inside of your cards also

[@emilygriffiths3056]

I love your colouring technique it saves so much time instead of having to work to blend. I only have cheaper alcohol markers that don’t blend as well but this technique works amazing with them so thanks so much for sharing. I have been using it since you did the lemon from this same company :)

[@sharlenechapman6718]

😊🤩🥰

[@kisserravnsrensen369]

🕊🙏❤️💐🕯

[@maureenbaranov]

And I swore to myself that I didn’t need any more valentine stamps… I guess I was wrong!
