How generous of you to share both the gifts and information about them. The cutting mat, knife and ruler would be a wonderful set to use.

I loved watching your video...you little santa girl! Now our friends and familie understand what we need for chrismas. That coffee/tea mug is the solution for a real drink, not mixed with yuck water :-) Thank you!!!

What a really great and useful guide. I'm lucky enough to have a family full of artists who think of things like paper and pens first and so I've been blessed by wonderful gifts! I think the one thing I'd love most is the craft mat because every single one of mine have been disastrous for different reasons and I'm back to working on giant dollar store coloring books which do not like my heat gun even a little bit! LOL And honestly, I just loving seeing this guide in a format that I can share to others because these aren't just excellent holiday gifts, they're a perfect assortment of the very few things you really "need" to begin art journaling if you've already become addicted to watching YouTube but have no idea where to begin! Thank you, France! xoxo

So sweet of you to give us a chance to win one of these wonderful prizes! I would be thrilled with any but if I have to pick I would say the pencil set. Thank you so much!💕♥️🦋🦋🦋

For me I think it's got to be the craft mat, mine has certainly seen better days! Thank you for the opportunity 🦋

So generous of you - I hope you get some lovely crafty presents yourself. Any of the items would b a great gift but the craft mat is probably my favourite.

I’m just popping in to say this is an awesome and very helpful video for my non-art journaling family! Thanks France!

[turtlechelle]

I actually don’t need any of them but it’s really sweet of you to share with your butterflies 😉

How fun!! I took my hubby to my favorite art store last weekend and browsed with him...then he threw me out and did some shopping. I’m excited to see what he chose! But I didn’t show him one of those big craft mats! I work on our dining table so this would be awesome!

I have 3to choose from the pigment fine liners, the neo II watercolor solubles, craft mat because ever one these would be a part of my art journaling, card making or mixed media and a little doodling as well it's so sweet of you to sharing this video as well as these wonderful gifts you're so sweet thank you from the bottom of my heart happy creative coloring big hugs to you 🤗👐🏽👐🏽👍🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️💕❤️💕❤️

What a great idea for a video!
I would love either the liner pens, because I go through them like crazy!
Or the brushes because... you can never have too many brushes! 🦋 thanks!

For me it would be the coffee mug. Just for my artspace and to remind me to stay hydrated

I was so excited to find your channel this year! I love watching you create your spreads. I have learned so much from watching you. I would love to start an art journal this year. As a paper artist, I have many of these tools, but would really like to try the Posca Pens. Keep up the wonderful work, and have a very Merry Christmas 🎁

A few months ago my daughter (13) started to paint with acrylics on a regular basis. I love how she rather paint than watch YouTube. Therefore I'd love the craft sheet for her in case I'd be the lucky one! She has nothing to protect her desk! 😱😄 /Hollie

Lovely idea, I know many an artist that ask for supplies, but friends and family don’t, because they feel overwhelmed. You should have included some of your own lovely stamps and Stencils.

[wilmablom]

Wow, what a great gifts!! The brushes are my favorite.

[Jazcamrob]

Thanks for posting this Christmas gifting. I plan to share this on my Facebook page so my family can get some good ideas. ❤️ The charcoal set would make a good gift. Thanks.

[lisamartens]

Thank you France for giving us all the gift of you! You are so generous with your ideas and your time - an inspiration to art journallers. I would love the craft mat as it is something I have not seen here in South Africa. Wishing you a very happy Christmas.

[joyceclohecy]

Nice gift ideas! I love the cutting mat. Thanks for sharing your ideas for gifts for our artist friends.

First- A Very Merry Christmas 🎄! All are such thoughtful gifts that any artist at any level would love. The neocolors would be my choice as I have been wanting to try them. A perfect opportunity! Thanks so much. À bientôt!
