Watercolor Christmas card ideas Part 2 ( socks & baubles )

Hi ,

My vlog and blog for today are watercolour cards. I made another set of watercolor cards that I completely enjoyed while creating. I cannot afford so many varieties of stamps to make cards. So I used watercolours to create some of my Christmas cards.

I made 2 cards today one is a socks ard and the other is a bauble card. 

1. Bauble which is hand drawn using some templates made by and then filling the baubles with watercolour. Templates are handmade using sticky notes and scissors
Color scheme is custom mixed light Turquoise blue ( mixing one part blue, one part yellow & one part white ) & Quinacidrone rose 

2. Winter socks also involved template made from paper.
Both of them looked fantastic for me.
Color scheme is Crimson Lake, Permanent green pale, Paynes' grey
I used the Sakura Koi 24 paint set

Supplies used are 

Strathmore watercolor paper
Canson XL watercolor paper

Sakura Koi watercolor
Waterproof pen
Watercolor brush round no 4
watercolor brush round no 8
