That is so cool! Whoever would have guessed a credit card would make such nice birch trees? Thanks for sharing.

This was so fun. Thank you. It's simply beautiful.

I love this secret with the credit card! Almost more fun than a spending spree!

I love botanicals and that you do too. It's so easy to get too busy in life to see the tiny things in nature.

For years I have actually only used old cards to paint with, but I use synthetic paper. That's a lot of fun

Magic. You make magic. I want the brush and paint to obey me the way they do for you.

I painted this birch tree tutorial yesterday. It came out great and the credit card worked perfectly for the tree trunks and limbs.

I’m excited to try this. Looks like fun.

Each time I am mad because I didn't succeed in doing a particular painting (and that I'm getting too serious!) I'm watching one of your video, try it and have fun!! 🙂

[terriadishian]

[birjeeshussain]

That is shockingly Amazing.

I must give it a go

totally fun way to paint birch trees. I found the challenge to be in making different size trees and the branches seems awkward.. So practice seems necessary but the effect of a birch tree is awesome. I'm thinking for me that a combination of credit card and brush for branches and possibly filling in with credit card. Totally Fun. thank you!!

Oh my goodness all these little tips and tricks with sponges and crinled paper and Q tips and credit cards who knew who knew? my OCD head has been so meticulous at painting every little line and swish individually trying to achieve this look and wala! Work smarter not harder! great technique love it love it love it thank you so much for sharing I love Birch trees.... Like daisies they're kind of tricky.... Love all your tutorials... My dad loved to use water color to me he was a good artist he painted a lot and showed me some basics when I was a really little girl and I did art all through high school and just recently picked up in my 50s.... I'm enjoying how naturally and easy it comes and you even make it easier🥰⚘❣warmest wishes🌻
