Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! I'd love to see what you create. You can tag me @cardsbyshannonlee if you post a pic of what you make... thanks for watching!
What a beautiful background!! That would also make a nice water card for sea creatures, but looks very nice with the shiny Christmas tree too! Thanks for sharing this technique with us to see how you made this beautiful card!
The shades blue by themselves reminded me of a desert scape. Liked when you added the gold. May be starting my next year's Christmas cards sooner than I thought. Thanks for reminding me of this technique.
I am not a person who watercolors but you do an amazing job at watercolor. Makes me want to try it.....again...since my tries have not been too good. Thank you!
You can do it! It's a lot easier than you think. I'm horrible at watercolor, but this technique is so easy... it did take me 3 tries to get it to look the way I wanted though. Thanks for watching!
Lovely card and you make it seem so easy! Definitely one I think I could manage making but won't look anywhere near as beautiful as yours. Of course, being new to watercolors, I need a lot more practice! LOL!! Thank you for this video tutorial, Shannon.
Hi Shannon. Your card is beautiful. I love the background. It reminds me of dusk in the Blue Ridge Mountain. It's very relaxing. The tree and the iridescent vellum shadow is a great touch. I want to try water coloring and this looks like a great place to start.
Thanks so much. I'm glad you liked it. If you do try this, I'd love to see what you create.Tag me if you post a pic @cardsbyshannonlee on all the socials. Thanks for watching!
WOW the background is amazing! I have the same watercolors, but I'm not as skilled as you are. I am going to try this, though. Your background is incredible.
You can do it! I'm horrible at regular watercoloring, but this is easy... it did take me 3 tries to get it right, but I have faith in you. Thanks for watching!

Love the colors. What weight of paper are you using? All those layers i would be worried if would start ball up. ❤
Wonderful idea ❤
the watercolor paper is 140# from the Bee Paper Company. Thanks for watching!
Love the layering, wouldn't your card get really soft?
I used watercolor paper from The Bee Paper Company and it held up fine. I think it's because I dry it in between each layer. Thanks for watching!

Is that watercolor paper?
yes, I forgot to mention that in the video. I used 140# watercolor paper from the Bee Paper Company. Thanks for watching!
Beautifully done!
Beautiful card!
