Hi friends! Welcome to week 3 of a fun collaboration with @Blue Woods Design Alexa Doebler featuring Faces and Florals! Be sure to check out Alexa's video next: youtu.be/x6Bctk-Up14
I was so nervous about this week's theme: Abstract! I have seen Alexa's abstract faces and they are SO cool and just filled with geometric shapes and elements. She's just so good at it! Wellllllll, me? I wasn't even sure how to start. I knew I would be using watercolors again because they are life to me -- any time you are unsure about how to start, grab your favorite medium! Then I thought well, abstract to me would be just not sketching before hand so I went and painted my entire girl with no sketching whatsoever. I hope you enjoy the video and if you do, be sure to push that link button and subscribe to my channel - I love your comments so be sure to leave 'em and I will respond as soon as I can!
A little bit about this collaboration: Alexa came to me with this idea because she knows I love painting flowers (mostly in watercolor but also in acrylic) and had been dabbling in drawing/painting more faces. She draws the most amazing girls and has wanted to paint more florals - thus the collaboration was born! We can each inspire each other and challenge each other to grow in areas that we want to. The best part, we're sharing the process with all of you!
Join us each week using the hashtag #FacesAndFlorals2020 with the theme and you'll be entered to win an original piece! We'll pick 2 winners at the end of August. How fun, right?!

![Galaxy Watercolor Ornament Painting for Day 7 of 12 days of Creative Christmas
Hi everyone! Welcome back to Day 7 of 12 Days of Creative christmas. I technically had this in mind for Day 8...but my project for day 7 proved difficult so you will see that next. LOL I absolutely love watercolors and while this didnt turn out exactly as I had in mind, I love it because I went for it. Sometimes all we have to do is go for it and thats what my 12 days of Creative Christmas is all about. Finding that time (some days a little late. LOL) to be creative and just create to create. I hope you are enjoying it as much as I am! If you create anything inspired by this series (or any of my videos) Id love if you tagged me in it on Social Media or posted in myFacebook group below!

![How to create mixed media envelope art with the Ranger Gel Press
This is a tutorial I created for Ranger Ink featuring their Gel Press as a guest designer. The original tutorial was published a couple weeks ago. I love using the Gel press to create fun and unique envelopes for mailing. I always take these to the post office though instead of guessing on postage because sometimes the card plus the envelope can be a little bit stiffer and needs to be mailed differently which adds postage costs. I always hope its worth it though to the recipient because I have fun making them! These are really easy because I just used a basic envelope and decorated it using the gel press, stamps and stencils. In another tutorial, I will show you how I can create any size envelope using the same concept on regular cardstock.
You can find it the entire tutorial here: https://youtu.be/QD3GKYO9AKM

![February PLAN WITH ME using stamps in my Clever Fox Planner!
Do you like to plan? I didnt used to until I found this planner - now all the stamps and stickers Ive collected are being put to good use!
Join me today for a little plan with me video showing how I use stamps to plan out my month in my Clever Fox Planner. A few months ago, they sent me their planner to review and I can 100% say this is by far the best planner I have ever used. I usually stick with a planner for a month or two max and then give up. This planner has everything I love about planning all-in-one - I highly recommend it!

![#ShowUsYourMEdia A Year of Gratitude Challenge: Simple Pleasures
Its Mixed Media Monday and I actually have a video for you today! I am working in the Dina Wakley Media 6x6 journal for the #ShowUsYourMEdia A Year of Gratitude challenge that started up again this month. For more details, be sure to check out the Ranger Ink blog. Dina Wakleys blog is a great place to see just how gratitude can improve your quality of life and why she chose to focus on it for the next 12 months.
I really love how this page turned out. Drawing is something that Ive been super intimidated with and Im tired of not trying it more...so I envision this journal to be filled with faces over the next 12 years. Heres hoping anyway! Thanks so much for watching. If you liked the video, Id appreciate you being a subscriber and sharing this video with one person you think would enjoy it!

![#WorldCardmakingDay My favorite Watercolor Technique + new to me stamp company: Picket Fence Studios
Hi Everyone! Happy World Cardmaking Day - one of my favorite holidays because I have the perfect excuse to stamp away all day! Today, Im sharing a favorite watercoloring technique for stamped images and sharing a new to me stamp company Picket Fence Studios! I just discovered them at the recent Scrapbook Expo here in Denver and fell in love immediately. Plus they are a family owned company so it was a no brainer for me to support them with a little haul. They also graciously accepted little ole me to their affiliate program so if you think their stamps are as cute as I do, I would love it if you used my links below to check them out. Using my affiliate links allows me to keep sharing these videos with you!
Be sure to leave me a comment and let me know what you are doing to celebrate World Cardmaking Day.
