Loved the tutorial on painting glowing Christmas lights. Back in June, I did this painting of Christmas lights for IC861 making it up as I went along. Doubly Inspired Christmas
While I was thrilled with how that card turned out, this tutorial helped me get a MUCH better glow and more realistic base on my bulbs today.

I remember your card that you did with the lights. Glad that you gave us the link. Interesting to observe how others use techniques. Your newest card is wonderfully done with the shadowing and highlighting. Impressed with your creation. Glad you are feeling better. TFS Fav'd

Linda, you did fantastic watercoloring of your bulbs! I really like how you have the wire looping and scolling...so much more realistic(at least in my experience dealing with a string of Christmas light bulbs). A beautifully designed card.
