Default WCW079 - December 1, 2021 - Christmas Tree in Watercolour

Oh my goodness, where has the time gone! It is December 1st, and I am here with today's Watercolour Challenge. I admit, I thought this would be easy. alas my tree looks like I scooped it from Charlie Brown! Alas, the point is to try, and that I did. The video for today is brought to you by Makoccino, who makes it look simple, and it probably is!

The keyword for this challenge is WCW079.
You can find the gallery here
My card is here

I actually have 3 finished cards this week because, ( I used stamps for the trees haha) and none of the indigo paint I have looks like hers. so, I really did use Indigo and I think I will try some of the prettier shades next time around. Thanks for this challenge Kia. here is one of mine.

Thanks Kia, there’s a saying we know it’s only a piece of paper…..we all need to learn to watercolour trees. The video is great, she makes it look so easy.

Kia, I had to smile when reading your post about the video looking easy. She really did this on a very wet paper, and it caused me some problems. Each week we learn something new, and that's what it's all about. Thanks for giving us this video and here is my fat tree.

I have just struggled through last week's one and had a go at this but to be honest it as clear as mud - I have no idea really what goes where so I have splodged some green paint and will see if it gets ripped up or posted once it is dry.

My thoughts went from 'disaster' to 'not so bad:'
