There’s something incredibly special about receiving a handmade watercolor card in the mail.

In this simple beginner watercolor tutorial, I’ll show you how to create beautiful watercolor holiday cards using easy, relaxing techniques that anyone can follow — even if you’re brand new to watercolor painting.

Painting your own cards is not only fun and creative, but it also turns your artwork into a personal gift filled with heart and personality.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn:

You don’t need perfect brushwork or years of experience to create something beautiful and heartfelt.

This video is all about creativity, joy, and giving yourself permission to simply enjoy painting.

So grab your paints, put on something cozy, and paint along with me.

If you’ve ever felt unsure about what to buy or overwhelmed by all the options… then this is for you.

Inside my free mini-course“Supplies I Can’t Live Without!”, I walk you through the exact brushes, paints, paper, and materials I personally use in my own work and classes. And more importantly, why I use them.

Because in watercolor, your supplies shape how the paint moves, blends, and flows. And that directly impacts how confident you feel as you learn.

I’ve carefully curated this list to help you get started right away so you can spend less time guessing, and more time actually painting.
