From a hot mess to stunning cards ... what a fun, liberating journey thanks cee cee ❤
One of my favourite videos...I’ve watched it several times. PLEASE do another video on how to create more cards from recycled papers. I can only imagine you’ve accumulated additional “pieces with potential” since you made this video, with which you can recycle. :-)
Who would not enjoy receiving such a pretty card, so many good ideas
I loved your first pretties, love this one too. Thank you CC for sharing your process….blessings to you ❤️
I am sooo inspired by your style and techniques! Such beautiful art not just here but throughout!! I love the way you let the mind go and let the art just happen. Even in doing these cards….trusting the process and letting go. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! You inspire me soooo much!!!
The blue background one with leaves is my FAVOURITE...it's NOT too much at all, lol!! Love this, now I know what to do with all my old watercolour pages
Yes. Lovely
Ceecee, it makes me happy to watch you play with paints in such a fun and carefree manner 😊. I love you pretties ❤️.
I LOVE the pink and yellow flowers on the three stems with black dots in the middle, so gorgeous!
Oh my gosh. I have been throwing away all my practice papers and could now kick myself. You are so much fun. Love your comments to yourself (bet you didn't know you did it) and your giggles. I am so excited now to start some mixed-media projects. I will never throw away another scrap.!!!!
I love both of the trees the best! Especially the one with the blue background!
So glad saved all those old messed up treasures of mine. Thanks CeeCee, you are fun to watch, more fun to follow.
So relaxing, and I have to say I love that your style in mixed media is SO UNIQUE. Yay! Decluttered, and beautiful.
OMGosh You just blew my mind. NEVER considered using those scraps in this way!!!!!
So beautiful - and I love how free and meditative the whole process seemed.
Those ideas are fantastic! Something I have done with my "doodles"is to cut them up to bookmark size...and then I give them away....I stick them in a birthday card, I always have a few in purse and leave them for a particularly sweet waitress....
That's really nice of you, and a great idea.
What a wonderful idea 🙂
I used to cut up watercolors to create scenes for cards. So much fun. Sometime I added small glass beads on circles of fine wire. Your creations are inspiring ne to try this approach. Your fine line work is the perfect compliment. I'm 80 now so my hand is not so steady but sometimes shakey lines are good.
My first time here and I was impressed how you recycled watercolor pieces into something very created...
well done and thanks for sharing.
These are all so pretty but I actually prefer the ones with the plain backgrounds - I think because they strike me as more whimsical which I prefer. I have a pile of "rejected" paintings which I've been saving for something besides bookmarks (made a bunch of those!) Thanks so much, I have learned a lot from watching you and really enjoy your videos.
these are amazing! I love them all....such a wonderful inspiration! Thanks for sharing. good art never goes out of style....You are the best.
Cee Cee, I truly love these cards, and I am so enjoying having found you on TH-cam because your creativity is contagious and relaxing all at the same time. You make it look so easy, and I know it probably is not, but I can't wait to try one day soon. Smiles, Paula :)
I have made scrap cards for a long time. When i saw your previous video i was re-inspired. Love these new ideas so much.
I've learned a valuable lesson today just watching this video. Thank you. I mostly make cards with stamping and coloring with different mediums and I have been guilty of throwing away the backgrounds of watercolor or the designs I had colored that I did not like. No more. What you are doing looks like so much fun and is so creative and I want to do that as well.
So much fun to watch you and what a great way to use up pages you're not too happy with. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Very beautiful paintings! Thank you so much for sharing your tips and techniques with us! ❤️💗💜
So amazing and refreshing. I too use my watercolor scraps and less than successful paintings, also use them in my cuttlebug and die cutting, punches too. I’m inspired to get back into doodles too. Thanks
Love them !! I actually like the one with the blue background the best💙👍
I haven’t visited you in a while, however, you never cease to impress the heck out of me. Your love and enjoyment of what you do are delightful and encouraging to others. Stay well. 🌸
You are SO much fun to listen to as you work! I love, love, love your tutorials!! I love watercolor, but mixed media is quickly becoming a friend as well. Thank you!
My sweet mom passed away last month and I had been a caregiver to her. It was an amazing, heart wrenching, fun, hard experience. Because I worked it was hard to balance everything so I had to put my creativity in a drawer and close it for awhile.
It was worth it because I loved her so dearly. We were very close and when she died I literally felt frozen and like the space where my heart is was empty. I’ve been so sad and the grief is indescribable. I’ve been thinking about what I can do to be me again and to fill up that empty space. I started watching your videos at midnight tonight and it is now 5:45.am. I went and found my paints and just started painting and watching you and hearing you’re not fake at all personality and joy just pretty much oozes out of you! I started crying as I painted and I realized that the space was a little less of a space. I remember painting making me feel happy and it relieved the anxiety. I’m sorry this is so long but I want you to know if you read this that you’ve made such a difference for me and I feel so out of the hole I was in. YAY! You just never know who’s out there needing help and I never thought it would be on you tube watching watercoloring.
Hugs and thank yous!!!
first of all, my sincere condolences for your loss. i have been there twice having lost both my parents and i have to say that ART has saved my life then and on several other occasions. thank you so much for sharing your story with me... comments like yours confirm that art is a great healer. it also helps me realize that i am doing what i am supposed to be doing: unlocking the creativity in others. so it is my turn to say THANK YOU, Colette. you have made my day with your heartfelt message. wishing you a comforting and creative end of week. x
Lovely post. Hope you are still painting and finding some fun in doing it.
Your creative glee is contagious and so appealing.
Wow these turned out great. I recognized the bamboo right away. I love that card, it’s so peaceful.
Just wonderful. I’m a beginner and this really is inspirational. Thank you so much. Wonderful, natural delivery too. Brilliant.
It’s been difficult for me to be loose. These tutorials of doodling and “appliqué” are really encouraging. So what if they are not “perfect, or there’s a boo boo. That is the idea of freedom and looseness. You just go with it. Nice.
You’re very inspiring.
This was magical. I couldn’t believe how all that turned out. Genius!
Beautiful creative ideas as always! I have so much scrap paper to go through and figure out different designs without being a total copycat!🙄💖☕ thank you for your inspiration as I have been stagnant for a few days... You are so right to do something everyday rather than skip as you lose momentum. I love your inspirational videos
Love this...I have a whole box full of my daughters watercolour experiments. We are so doing these. Also loved seeing you use your fingers. I usually paint acrylics just with my fingers. I love doing soft blurry landscapes...it’s the only way to paint them.
oh yay! you'll have so much fun making your very own petite pretties. have a lovely and creative day!
I love love love them! Thank you so much ! You are so awesome! So creative and inspiring!
I just love your channel. It has become my decompression at night and a Sunday morning kickstart. Thank you for these beautiful, fun videos. Your creativity is boundless! ❤️🖌💜💙💛🧡❤️
awesome! thank you, Deirdre.
All are Very pretty but like you I love the ones with the script background the best. A great way to recycle scrap pieces xx
aren't they fun?! i love them too. i could go on and on making these and never get tired. have a wonderful weekend, Lynn.
Always the bearer of joy . Thanks CC
Love how you made the most of your paintings and re-styled them into something beautiful that will bless others :)
I love the blue card with the tree.
Happy New Year 2020. Loved, loved, loved all your beautiful creating. I had just been looking at all my Silks and wondering what I could possibly do with them. Hark the very next video of yours that I had saved for future watching was this one. Have to work today, but tomorrow I’m not going to leave my craft room till I’ve made some “pretties” of my own. I’ve been subbed for about 6 months and there is not one of your videos that I haven’t watched to the end. They are never boring. Thanks for sharing. Toni in beautiful Colorado
I came across your earlier pretties video the other day and have spent the last two days painting, swirling, flicking, cutting, sticking and doodling. I now have a stack of beautiful cards. Woohoo! Now this new style is beckoning (ooh - leaves and script and lovely scribbles) but it's 1am and I should go to bed. This will have to wait til tomorrow. So glad I found your channel - you are such an inspiration. Thank you.
that's awesome, Wendy! i'm glad you liked the videos. so ... how many did you make this time around? :-)
Well, only 3 so far but that's because the morning was spent waiting for the paint to dry on the recycled papers - good idea of yours to tape them together! - and then half an hour spent washing off the splattered black paint from me, my clothes and the workdesk. First time I've used a rigger brush to splatter with (I usually use just a small brush) - I didn't realise how flexible it was and how far paint can travel! Lots of fun though. Thanks again for your tutorials.
I love this! I went through some of my "failed" WC paintings/sketches that were in my journal. Found areas that I felt could be placed on card and saved the other areas. I think I will play around with some similar techniques and media. I've wanted to try other media.
OMG, these are GORGEOUS CeeCee! And I smiled all the way through the video watching you cut, paste and doodle the finishing touches. I'm going in for chemo tomorrow and I'll be taking this bouquet of pretties with me! Thank you, thank you!
Oh, Donna, i'm sorry to hear you are going through this. please be well and hopefully the pretties have brought you some comfort. big hug!
I love your simple FUN!!!
More pretties! I've made a whole bunch of pretties-cards a while ago, ready to grab when I need one. And these new ones are so gorgeous tóó.....I love the leaves and the stamped backgrounds. Back to work, thanks CeeCee!
Your “pretties” are gorgeous ❤️ even your scraps are gorgeous 😊
Gorgeous.
From waste to wonderful.
I'm looking for a way to recycle my watercolor practice paper because I don't want to throw them in the trash, but also have environmental concerns. You totally save the day 🤩
This an awesome way to use papers lying around. I sense a weekend project. TFS!!!
Yiipppeeee have fun!
This is a very ‚creative‘ idea 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
It‘s also a good idea to do this with children!!! Thank you for sharing with us 🌸
i just LOOOOVE your cards - super stunning!!! one could also do this with 'failed' gelli print papers, yuk pattern papers - oh you are a super star and have given me many ideas!! thank you so much xxx
I love your way of cracking yourself up! It is awesome how much fun you have!
haha, life is so serious why not make fun of it :P
Those pretties are soooooo pretty! Love them!
Love these! I especially like the ones with the stamped script background. More inspiration!
thank you, Barbara!
I really love watching these Cee Cee! It's always fun to see what another creative person comes up with, especially with what you call messups?This is very encouraging as I sm getting a watercolor haul soon. What was the Silk glaze paint you mentioned? I really love the pink and blue. Keep the creative fliw coming to us who follow you faithfully! ❤❤❤
I enjoyed watching you create these. They have a wonderful, naive charm, which is only enhanced by the added 'scribbling' rather than the more formal doodling that another commenter suggested. Keep going with your own instincts, Ceecee. You are so generous with your time and skill. Thank you. X
thank you so much for this comment! yes, i saw that. some people call it scribbling... i still call it doodling no matter they say. different tastes, that's all. it's all good. it makes me smirk and i move on. have a magical day!
Beautiful! I love your style. Thanks for inspiring and sharing
thank you, Dorothy!
I also just found your channel and love it. I have so many watercolour done that I don't like and gelli art prints and will be doing these cards. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas. You are wonderful, love, love your cards .
thank you and welcome to the channel, Susan!
CeeCee, these are so beautiful! I have switched from painting to sewing small quilts, and I'm going to use one of these cards as inspiration to make a small quilt. Just love your art!
that's so cool! glad to be of inspiration. have a wonderful and creative week.
Ceecee these are just beautiful. Love your pretties so much. Thank you so much for sharing with us your amazing work x
thank you so much, Carla!
I really love this! Don't need to feel bad because of failed paintings and scraps :) Thanks for sharing!
Love your pretties. Looking forward to seeing you use up all your recycled art into cards. Palm fronds, conifer trees, pine trees, birds would be lovely too
They are all good but I particularly like the leaves only ones
I have really been enjoying these morning videos. I even went and dug out my watercolor set... not used it yet... it is sitting on my desk eyeing me...just have to work up some courage. I was never very good with watercolors.
This morning you made me very jealous of everyone on your greeting card list.
thank you so much. you know, you don't have to create a masterpiece... one day you will though but only if you put that first brushstroke down. go ahead and do it! what's the worst that can happen? go do, and repeat!
Amazing! Thanks for sharing! As a beginner, I’ve been throwing out so much. I’ll start saving now. These are SO pretty!
Gorgeous cards! Suitable for framing. Ceecee is my art inspiration!
How wonderful! Thank you for the lesson!
So very fun, and so cute!!! Thank you for sharing Ceecee!!!
I ❤ the blue one! That's my favorite!!
I love these cards.
I just love your channel🥰! Your personality is so bubbly and inviting. I’m just dabbling in trying to look at shapes and things, I wish I could just visit with you and just have a day of painting and doodles. Absolutely love your color palette just 🤩 ❤️
PS but you tought me how to make pretties of my own. Using black paper I got some beautiful recently purchased metalic acrylics and painted the whole sheet with all colours some separate some mixed over each other and have now cut them up into rectangles and doubled sided tape on the fronts of recycled brown paper cards..they look stunning. Not sure what I will do now whether doodle or paste more pretties but thanks so much for the great idea...🥰🎨
For a moment there CeeCee I wondered what the heck you were doing and I have to admit I did skip a little for the first time ever then it all made sense and the video was over way too soon. Thanks from Western Australia 💜🤗🤗🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
I love these! So fresh and pretty 🙂
And what a great way to recycle paintings! It's wonderful to make something lovely and enjoyable out of what most people would throw away. Who wouldn't want to get one of these pretty cards?
They just make you happy ☺️
Hello from Abbotsford ❤️🙏
OMG! Love,love,love.I feel more 'pretties' coming on.Love the ones with script behind,but love the stems with all the circles on too 😄x
thank you so much. it was fun to come up with different styles.
I absolutely love these! I’ve just begun my journey, but I will save my ‘mistakes’ and my grandchildren and myself can make stunning Christmas cards in November! A great idea, your pretties, thank you!
I still love the recycle/upcycle vids. The pretties are so pretty.
So many lovely pretties!! And I love this idea of recycling some old paintings :)
These I love! They are exquisite!
They're all pretty!
Just love your videos - gives me so much hope - you are
Super Talented
Love, love, love!
Thank you. I have to say I had my doubts when I saw your stack of paintings at the start. And my doubts only grew when you were swirling on great gobs of white and random paints! But like a magician you pulled the proverbial rabbit out of the hat! The resulting cards are wonderful, creative, great texture and soft colors. Kudos to you! TFS. 😍👍💕
The leaves look fab x
What a blast 💥 Ceecee your what’s good for the creative soul
I'm fan of this cards ! You inspire me ! Thank you
awesome! i hope you'll make some.
Thank you CeeCee. I am never throwing scraps away again!
Yessss! recycling is so satisfying. have a wonderful and creative weekend!
Wow! I had no idea where you were going with that " mess"! This is the 1st time seeing you and I'm so glad I found you! This is so amazing! Officially subscribing!
Always love your pretties 👏 awesome idea ... thanks
Love them all but especially the ones with the text background!
thanks. and yes, me too. they are my favs.
Very very pretty!
Fabulous! Now I know what to do w all my xtra art papers !
I love love love the long morning Art sessions, Especially when they're pretties!!! :)
Beautiful! thank you for the inspiration....
Thank you for brightening my day
and thank YOU!
The idea of having so many extra pages of mistakes because I do so much art that I have extra to make more and different art?....I feel like I treat my stuff WAY too precious. Goodness, how do I stop and just have fun like this??! I want to do more art and be free about it!
keep going! that's the only way to become free.
CeeCee, just love your doodles!
