Okay, well, I'm going to try to make this card. I'm not even a good stamper, however I love your card and I love those stamps and I have watch this video several times over the last six month and I ready to try my hand at it. The card is for a dear friend and I have a week to make it. 🙏🏽
Kristina, you're such a talented artist...you remind me of my (adult) daughter as both of you seem to create such beautiful artwork. I have all these supplies you used here, however my results are not even close to yours in my opinion..mine are nice but not stunning like yours! I started stamping way back in the early 80's mostly because I cannot draw or freehand paint anything, which always seemed to confuse my mother as I was the only one in the family who couldn't, lol. Here I am years later still stamping and thrilled that I can make lovely cards and gifts because I am able to use the artwork that someone else drew that was made into a stamp. While I will never be the artist that you are, I thank you for always being so helpful with all the information that you provide in your videos as they have helped me create better cards etc. Now...if only I had your talent and your gorgeous handwriting!! Thank you again Krisitina for all your beautiful and informative videos! xxx
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!! I ALSO LOVE the fact you indicate below your videos EXACTLY which products you used and the names of all items. It is very tedious, I know, but it is SO HELPFUL to all of "US" (especially when you want to purchase an item you might not have) THANK YOU for sharing !!!!
Wow! This card is so beautiful that beautiful doesn't even express it. I have no words. You are so talented. I love watching your videos and just looking at your work.
Excellent video! Your card is beautiful. Thank you for the commentary. I will be watching this again. Love to hear little hints about watercolor that most people probably already know!
Kristina I thought I saw most if not all of your videos. I absolutely love your talent and skills. one day I watched your videos all day then made my girlfriends watch and now they too are hooked. I really just wanted to say thank u for sharing your God given talent with us. You are simply amazing.
Just thought you'd like to know that the reason they don't seep into the paper as fast as some other watercolor papers is because Arches is considered to be pretty "hard sized" out of the watercolor paper companies (meaning they use a bit more sizing than others, giving artists a longer working time before the paper starts to pull the paint into its surface.) Also, even with the hard sizing, hot pressed surfaces tend to absorb a tad faster so you made a great choice with the Arches Cold Pressed paper for the markers. Also, I continue to love your videos!
Beautiful, beautiful. I am so grateful to have eyes that can see your beautiful painting and fingers to type you this message. Thank you for sharing your gift and bringing a spot of joy to my day.
Glorious!! Those flowers looked like I could almost pick them right off the page, as if they were in a garden. I'm very eager to see more videos using these markers. I have a set of them, but am not "quite" at the level of expertise that you are, and any instruction (and yours is quite good) is welcomed!
Oh my goodness! I have never watched a video about water coloring before and have learned so much. I was amazed at how the individual petals began to really "pop" when you added the darker shading! Thanks for this wonderful video!
This turned out so lovely, Kristina. I sat here mesmerized, while watching you glide with such ease as you painted this beautiful card. Thank you for sharing your wonderful video. I'll probably watch it several other times as I'm just beginning to use watercolors.
I'm sure I've commented before, but I love this card. I just got some zig markers and I've done this technique. of course, yours is so much more n beautiful.
This is so helpful to me! I just bought these markers last month and feel a little overwhelmed with the possibilities. I am going to try blending with the water pen, now. Thank you very much, and any more videos on these markers will be greatly appreciated!
Dear Kristina,Just had to leave a comment about your gorgeous project here with the Tim Holtz Flower garden Stamps and the wonderful Zig Real Clean Color Markers. Kristina in my opinion this is probably your most beautiful painting yet. I watch all of your videos and I am always just so amazed with your God given creative flair and talent. I admire your creations so much. I only wish that I could paint and stay within the lines. It is something that I never have been able to do. I thought you also chose an excellent stamp to use as the stamp set has some amazing possibilities. You have truly brought everything to life in your interpretation using these stamps with the fabulous markers. I really have to get the set and have a play with them. I have a nice collection of Copics. I think that I have 74 all together but I loved the brush tips on the markers which you used. I just wanted to let you know how much I love your creations Kristina, and I also love your Mail Call as well. It is such fun seeing all the beautiful cards which people and children send to you. You are certainly an true inspiration to all who follow you Kristina, and I am so glad that I am one of them.Take care and be well Kristina and I will surely be looking for so much more in the future from you.Sincerely,Trish in New Zealand ♥
That's so sweet of you to say! :) I live embossing a stamped image and then watercoloring over it because it helps it stay in the lines. Have you tried that?
Beautiful card Kristina...love your painting...am surprised at the robust colour of the Zig Clean Colour Real Brush Markers as I've seen some works that are quite pastel in appearance but this is just so vibrant. Love watching you paint and then construct your cards...I will continue to watch and learn. Sue
Thank you Kristina I love your video and your teaching I have Zig Clean Color and I have been a litle unsure of how to use them so this is a treasure for me :)
Thank you. Just found this - have been wanting to use my stampers anonymous Flower set forever. I recently got the dies for it to. Thank you so much for this video.
Gorgeous, Kristina, and I LOVED your video! I've not tried these and just keep watching. But you've really helped share your experience, and I appreciate that. I LOVE your work! Hugs!
You are so talented and everything you do seems effortless which means you clearly have a gift. I have just invested about $250 in supplies based on just watching your videos. I'm artsy-fartsy shall we say with some talent but I learned so much from you. I have the 48 set of markers, recommended paper, clear stamp pad + the embossing powder that you have. I'm raring to go. 💗🙏💗 Thank you so much for sharing your videos with us. Watching you is truly a delight!
Hi Kristina ~ This card is absolutely stunning. I'm going to have to pull out my Zig markers and follow you step-by-step. As always, you make everything look incredibly simple and your voice is soothing. Thanks for the inspiration and I'm glad to see you making videos once more. ~HUGS~
thank you for this video. i have been working with these markers for about a week and hope to one day have the ability you have! i also ordered the stamp set so i can practice re-creating what you've done here---then one day I'll be able to create something original! Thank you again. Great video.
Absolutely stunning. I experimented with some inexpensive Tuesday Morning watercolor paper and these clean Color Real Brush markers and the color would not move/blend. Will be heading to the art store soon. TFS and inspiring! Hugs, Kristina
I am learning so much from watching your videos. I can't draw very well, so I love stamping and embossing. I have also wanted to try printing my layout from the many different stamp designs I have then using a glue pen to emboss over the lines from my printer, so I could put together a large piece printed on watercolor paper. I would love to see you do something like this to show us how well it can be done.
Karla Bostic versamark makes a pen you can use for detailing in case the stamp didn't get all of the pattern. It can be refilled with glycerin and water mix, a diy fix. Go to frugal crafter on UA-cam, she has tons of great videos! Hope this helps.
Another beautiful card, Kristina! I loved the shading & how you explained your methodology for the shading & colors you used. Thank you so much for sharing. So inspiring!
Thanks for this video tutorial, Kristina! I think these markers would be a great introduction for any painter curious to venture into the world of water coloring!
A gorgeous card, beautifully coloured thanks Kristina. I have that stamp set and Zig markers, I am going to have another play with them today thanks to your inspiration. When using the Zig markers, to get a beautiful result, the paper is so important. I don't have the Arches WC paper that you used, but will look out for some. Thank you.
Beautiful, Kristina! I have not been stamping since my husband passed away last year, but your card post drew me in! Gorgeous work!
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm happy that some of what I do could bring a bit of joy to you. :)
I want to stay home and colour flowers all day! Just gorgeous!
I know the recipients of your cards must be thrilled. They’re lovely.
Love to try my hand at water coloring.You make it look so easy.

Absolutely beautiful coloring in these blossoms!
Beautiful card. I have had the stamp set for a long time and never tire of it. You can't go wrong with it. Thank you for sharing your tips.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!! I ALSO LOVE the fact you indicate below your videos EXACTLY which products you used and the names of all items. It is very tedious, I know, but it is SO HELPFUL to all of "US" (especially when you want to purchase an item you might not have) THANK YOU for sharing !!!!
I have watched this a few times. The painted flowers are absolutely beautiful!Really, really pretty Kristina...
You are so talented. Each time I watch your videos I learn so much from them. Thank you for sharing your talents!
Those flowers are gorgeous ! You really made them look real, like they are popping off the page! Love, love, love it!
Stunning! The wine red color really makes the details show up. Thank you for sharing your techniques.
This is absolutely STUNNING!
A really stunning card with those lovely colors...thanks Kristina.
Wow! This card is so beautiful that beautiful doesn't even express it. I have no words. You are so talented. I love watching your videos and just looking at your work.

amazing colouring Kristina. Love the tips and techniques you have shared.
Pretty amazing how quick they create such professional results!
You're coloring just blows me away...beautiful!
Breathtakingly stunning! You are such an inspiration!

I could watch this 1000 times and never get sick of it. It is so beautiful. i love it so much.
Fabulous coloring! Interesting how you grounded the sentiment! Would have never thought of that.

Also, I continue to love your videos!
I am not using Arches Cold pressed paper and having problem with pilling. I am using Canson XL cols pressed. Why am I having a problem with this?
Fabulous! I love that stamp set and with the Zip markers ... wow!
Beautiful, beautiful. I am so grateful to have eyes that can see your beautiful painting and fingers to type you this message. Thank you for sharing your gift and bringing a spot of joy to my day.

I just purchased some of these markers...I haven't tried watercoloring yet, but you inspire me! This card is gorgeous :)
Another stunning watercolor card. Beautiful mate

It was this video that made me fall in love with card making and Zig brushes!
Hope you add more videos using these brushes because you offer such wonderful tips. I love the layout and balance of the card as well. Thank you!
As usual, gorgeous colouring Kristina. 😍
Your cards are always stunning. I really enjoy watching your videos. They inspire me tremendously.

I had to come back and watch this again. This is one of my all time favorites!
OMG! This is amazing!!! The depth of colour you've achieved is incredible. You're so clever. :)
I'm sure I've commented before, but I love this card. I just got some zig markers and I've done this technique. of course, yours is so much more n beautiful.

Beautiful card. Love that "halo" around the flower images.
Wow! Gorgeous. I have and love this stamp set. The embossing takes it to the next level. I have Tombo markers, I hope they do as well as Zig!
You are so talented and everything you do seems effortless which means you clearly have a gift. I have just invested about $250 in supplies based on just watching your videos.
