Posting something you create on social media really can cause a lot of anxiety. Everyone is their own harshest critic, and if you’re not easy on yourself, you won’t grow because you’ll be too afraid to try and fail. // Learning to watercolor is my passion project right now, and I’ve been pushing myself to try new things. I tried some tutorials from @letsgomakeart that have been so helpful and fun. Sarah is such an amazing teacher with an uplifting perspective to learning something new. ✨ #letsmakeart #letsgomakeart • • •

I would love to be sipping on an Iced White Mocha right now. (Yes, some people still drink iced coffees in the middle of winter.) Iced coffee just feels like a treat. Are you team iced coffee or team hot coffee? ☕️ #icedcoffeeaddict • • •

So it snows on Halloween, but not in December? 🤔 #winterinwisconsin //
I stole the idea for this pale grey plaid background pattern from @starofmay ✨ Loved that video, Kristina!

It’s been December for days. What happened to November? Or all of autumn. // The year is almost up, and it’s time to start thinking about goals for the new year. This year, I’m all about attainable goals that will benefit me rather than planning to do all these things I can’t actually accomplish.
Here’s my 2020 biz goals: ✨ Learn how to watercolor ✨ Release stamp sets monthly
✨ Boost my IG followers
✨ Focus on my blog, creating meaningful content
✨ Start posting on IGTV
What are your goals for the new year? Be kind to yourself and set attainable goals that you will be proud to accomplish. 🙌 #newyearresolutions #howisitdecemberalready • • •

It snowed here last night, and there is the tiniest sprinkling of snow on the ground outside my window. Not near snowman levels, yet. We’ll get there. 😄 #winterinwisconsin
These darling snowmen are from the Warm Winter Hugs stamp set by @ginakdesigns released this year. ✨To make this cute little snow globe shaped card, I cut a circle from @archespapers Cold Pressed Watercolor Paper and free-handed some little snow hills with @ranger_ink Distress Ink. I used a pale grey that I watered down quite a bit. ✨I let the snow hills dry, and then used straight water to cover the remaining paper. I loaded my paint brush with a little Payne’s Grey @winsorandnewton watercolor paint, and filled the bottom near the snow. It was so cool to see the paint bleed into the sky area. ✨The base was very easy. I cut a rectangle to fit the shape of the globe and painted in some dark and light stripes, letting the paint bleed into itself. I was trying to go for a wooden effect. ✨The snowman are stamped in Antique Linen and die cut from Arches watercolor paper. I used my Winsor and Newton paints to paint their details, but I used Distress Ink in the same color I painted the snow banks to paint their bodies.
I was going to mount this on a card base, but then I decided I liked it all by itself! It ended up being quite large. I think I would need a 5x 7 envelope for this one.
I loved this one so much! Hope you do too. Let me know in the comments—-> Has it started snowing yet where you live? Enough to build a snowman? ⛄️ #doyouwanttobuildasnowman .
