This holiday season, we're combining two of our favorite crafts to create something extra special: hand-painted watercolor cards embellished with embroidery!
In this beginner-friendly workshop, you'll learn how to paint charming holiday illustrations using watercolor, then add an entirely new layer of texture and personality with colorful embroidery stitches.
Think soft watercolor Christmas trees decorated with stitched garlands, tiny embroidered ornaments, delicate stars, and festive little details that practically jump off the paper.
There's something so magical about combining the soft, flowing colors of watercolor with the dimensional texture of embroidery. And the best part? You don't have to be particularly good at either craft to make something absolutely adorable.
Whether you're making cards to send to loved ones, tuck into holiday gifts, or keep as little pieces of seasonal artwork, these are the kinds of handmade treasures people will want to hold onto long after the holidays are over.
🎄 The Vibe
We're embracing all the charm of handmade holiday traditions with a project that feels nostalgic, whimsical, and just a little bit extra.
This is your excuse to slow down, get creative, and spend a couple of hours making something thoughtful with your own two hands.
It's holiday card making, but with a little more texture and a LOT more personality.
🪡 What You'll Learn
🎨 Watercolor Basics: Learn simple watercolor techniques for creating soft washes, layering colors, and painting festive holiday illustrations.
🖌️ Painting Your Design: Practice breaking down holiday imagery into approachable shapes that are easy to paint, even if you've never picked up a watercolor brush.
🪡 Embroidering on Paper: Learn how to safely prepare your watercolor paper for stitching without tearing or damaging your artwork.
✨ Adding Embroidered Details: Practice beginner-friendly embroidery stitches to create garlands, ornaments, stars, and other dimensional embellishments.
💌 Combining Two Crafts: Learn how to plan your painted and stitched elements so they work together to create a beautiful finished card.
✂️ Finishing Your Cards: Learn how to secure your embroidery threads and give your handmade cards a polished finish.
No watercolor OR embroidery experience necessary! This workshop is designed for complete beginners, and we'll guide you through both techniques step by step.
🎁 What's Included
💌 4 watercolor cards to paint and embroider
🎨 A selection of watercolor paints
🖌️ Use of watercolor brushes and painting supplies
🧵 A colorful selection of embroidery floss
✨ All tools needed to prepare your watercolor paper for embroidery
🎄 Holiday design inspiration and guided instruction
🙌 Hands-on help throughout the workshop
You'll leave with your own collection of hand-painted, hand-embroidered holiday cards, ready to fill with heartfelt messages, send to someone special, or tuck into a gift.
And honestly? If someone took the time to paint AND embroider a card for us, we'd probably keep it forever. 🥹
Whether you're looking to learn two new creative skills, make something meaningful for the holidays, or just spend an evening getting a little extra crafty, this workshop is the perfect way to add some handmade magic to the season.
