I thought it would be fun and useful to create some gift tags in this style. I painted a lot of them last year before Christmas. I loved giving them away (but I also kept a few ;)) They were very well received :) Please share yours in the class projects, if you happen to create some!

Just measure and mark the size of your gift tags on a sheet of watercolor paper. (Mine are small, just 2x2 inches)
Then add water and paint as you did for the main painting - first a sky area and then the foreground/base for the trees.
Let everything dry.
Add a few trees, again, just as we did in the main painting.
Let the trees dry as well and come back to
add stars and/or snow with white ink or gouache.
Done! :)

I'd love to see your creations! Please share your projects here in class or also on social media. If you do, please tag me - I'm @tangledpen on Instagram (and on Facebook as well).
Thanks again for joining!
