    Marta, I have to tell how much I appreciate this video. I have enjoyed many of the Christmas card making videos by all the talented people I find on YT. But most of them are with some new stamp set or dies that I simply can't afford. The cards you made today are simple and elegant and are made with supplies that most of us probably own already. You are an inspiration!

I love your enthusiasm and your tutorials are so easy to watch and give me a urge to try some. Much love to you and yours. I know this upload is 13 months old, and you now have your second daughter ( whom is a delight, as is Emily) anyways I’ll try and catch you live and say hello, from Australia. ❤️

    Such a sweet spirit you have! Bubbles which you kept saying are like what you get from detergent in the sink. Yes, they are round and not wrong, I just think you were trying to say baubles which is pronounced bobbles. The word you may have been searching for is ornament. I love your joy!

  • @theOmega989
    @theOmega989 6 ปีที่แล้ว +31

    Marta, I think it's amazing when people know more than one language. I took 3 years of Spanish in school and still can't speak or write it. I think your English is great! To answer to your question about the "bubbles" you were painting:
    A bubble is a thin sphere of liquid enclosing air or another gas. Ex. Soap bubbles
    A bauble is a small, showy trinket and is synonymous with ornament, both of which are acceptable names in English for the "bubbles" you were painting.
    In the States, especially on the East coast, we just call them Christmas 'balls', which is inaccurate because technically a ball is a spherical object you play with, usually in sports games.
    However, I think "bubbles" is way cuter and will be calling them that from now on! Lol! Great cards! You are so wonderful! Also, you're pregnant??? Congrats! Many blessings to you both!

    Your work is beautiful. There is another technique you can use that I think you would like. You wet the paper before hand like you have done. You add your color, make sure it's kind of wet. Then you put salt onto the pigment. There is a product called masking compound. If you wish you have sharp edges for your shapes, you can draw your shape, paint the compound over the title, and the outer edges and then go super wet on your paper, for the spreading effect you like. When the project is dry, you peel off the masking compound. You can also give rubber cement a try, to see if this works. It might depend on the paint, so you might want to give it a test run on scraps. If you do not like a certain color placement, if you are very careful you can use bleach to remove the paint. It's something you will have to experiment with so you know how to control that. I had a thought about the string your Daddy sent you. You could make cards using the string in some fashion for a more "rustic" effect, or other color strings, and see what you come up with for them. You can also emboss over your dried watercolor pieces also. Not to mention applying glue with a very fine brush and adding a very fine glitter or just an iridescent glitter that gives sparkle without color overload. I hope these ideas inspire you to inspire others. My favorite cards were all of them. Each had their own merits. I was very partial to the Christmas balls, and the tree you didn't care for, so that shows you each person has their own taste. I love that your videos are longer than most. Thank you for sharing your time and talent with us.

      You can also buy masking fluid pens now. I'm having a lot of fun with mine and they're so easy to write with and then paint over and then take the masking fluid off and the white or coloured lettering or shapes are left behind 👍

    So gorgeous! I just found these a couple of years late, but SO much fun! My favourite is the branch with the red and orange ornament. But as you say they are all lovely. There's nothing like hand-painted watercolours.

      Morning! 😊 I love the one with the branch and bauble, so pretty, and clever the way you did it! I'm glad you're keeping them all. Love your chatterbox chit chat, so many good tips. I'm sharing this on my Christmas pinterest board 😊
      Re watercolour brushes, it's really worth getting yourself one high quality professional round. I bought one for $35 years ago, it has a very fine tip for fine lines but you can also fill it up with water and colour and do thick strokes and washes. And they last forever.

And I love the down to earth, real life chat - and yes, all families around the world have disappearing rulers, erasers and.. for us, glue sticks! :-) That's a good sign - it means kids are creating because they see mama having fun doing so too!

      I don't think pregnant ladies are suppose to have caffeine, but I'm not sure why. I know it can raise your blood pressure, so, if you are susceptible to getting preeclampsia , you might need to not have any. I'm sure Marta is a very responsible mommy.

    • @hovawart16
      @hovawart16 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Caffeine squeezes our capillaries and reduces blood flow. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients and keeps blood sugar in the right range to prevent brain damage--a pregnant woman does not want to reduce the oxygen and blood sugar and nutrients to her fetus, and this is why there is a recommendation not to indulge in caffeine during pregnancy.
