Well thought I would have a go at this as I cannot paint and loved the thought of a hand painted Christmas card . I must say I was pleasantly surprised how easy it is though I do need a bit of practice with the paint strokes but really enjoyed it. very therapeutic :0) If you are interested you will find more details here I am not connected with it but found it fun thanks for passing xxx
