This one is an easy one and I must say that I really enjoyed the whole process.

I always loved watercoloring ( not that I am very good at it..) because it is very forgiving.

If you make a slight mistake , you can always blot it.

I used cotton rag watercolour paper to paint on my image.

I divided one whole sheet ( A4) into four. This will give me a near enough size to fit into my card blanks.

You can use any size that you want , and you can also use other watercolour paper. I just love the cotton rag ones for special occasions.

I am painting a bauble that is hanging off a branch of a tree.

First , look for a lid cover or a jar that will fit nicely in the middle of your paper. I used a candle jar as it is the only one that seems to fit.

Then choose the colours you’re going to paint your bauble with. As I am mass making , I have chosen 4 different colours for my baubles.

Don’t forget to wet your watercolour paint first before starting – this wakes them up and they would be more easy to use.

Apply paint on the rim of your jar or jar cover. Then stamp on the paper to create a circle.

Fill in the circle with the same colour paint , but don’t forget to leave a highlight. Use the circle as your guide.

Now let’s paint gold accents to make it look like a bauble.

But first grab your jar again and apply gold paint to the rim of the jar or lid, and use it like a stamp to put gold edge on your circle.

By doing this , you are sure to have a perfect circle.

If you do not have gold paint, you can use a gold gel pen or a gold posca pen.

Using the same gold paint , I then painted lines , foliage , simple doodles and the hanging cap ( Im not sure whether this is the right term..) of the bauble.

I used a very thin watercolour brush for this.

As before , you can use gold gel pen or gold post pen if you don’t have gold watercolour paint to draw your doodles.

Use a white gel pen to add more doodles on your bauble. I mainly put white dots on most of my bauble images.

So far , this is looking so plain. So, let’s add foliage.

Using brown watercolour paint , I painted a branch at the top. I then drew a string to which the bauble is appearing to hanging from with a black pen later.

For the foliage use green watercolour and add wispy strokes to create a pine needles.

Using a black gel pen , I drew the string to make the bauble look like it is hanging from the branch.

I then cut the watercolour paper to fit the card blanks – 4 inches x 5.5 inches.

To finish it off , I applied gold paste on the edges of the watercolour paper. This will just make it stand out from the card and make the card look more festive.

I then glued the image to the card blank.
