Lots of beautiful finishes, Carra! Excellent work! So glad you shared them with us! My favorite is anything Dakota of course but they were all beautiful and noteworthy.
Nice group of completions. Love them all. The framing and mounting of Eve really shows off how the diamond painting’s treatment makes a difference. It looks beautiful. Looking forward to your 2024 completions. Peace and love abide with you 💕
Thank you for sharing, Carra! Congratulations on all your finishes! I love the Guardians of the Lake, it's on my wish list but it is quickly moving to the top, it is beautiful completed!
@@theprincipalpaintersorry! I just realized referencing my own channel on your comments would redirect people to my channel and that would be rather rude. I just got excited since I have that exactly kind of video coming out. I erased my previous comment!
I’m very blessed. My dad and my bonus mom are such wonderful people. They tell their friends I’m a “professional” diamond painter! It cracks me up! They are so encouraging!💖💖
I really loved the Christmas Hannah Lynn. I don’t have it but yours had me wondering if it was still current with DAC. My Christmas pic this year was the Dakota “Christmas Eve at the Workshop.” It was my first Dakota and I love it. I have several more and am looking forward to the event!
Great job Friend!! You got a lot done especially with all those enhancements. I love how TeeMaw makes special drill packets for certain kits. I have one for a Craftibly. We have a few of the same kits and I can't wait to work on Elf. Will Ferrell rocks!
What a great year of finishes. Carra you have become more confident with your enhancements which was awesome to see. I may have to add bubble drills next time I order from Teemaw.
I loved seeing that you did Elf too. I love the movie and had so much fun doing this canvas. It was way to much AB for me only because they are a challenge to place as far as putty or waxes go. You are really peaking my interest as of late with the idea of drill replacement. I might just dip my toe and see how it goes. great video, thanks for sharing!
I hate that we get called out for doing temu/amazon/shien diamond paintings. Not all of us can afford to pay $100 a painting. I know about the snack size but they are all kid like/cartoons and I don't like doing those all the time. It's like during the time when in the gaming world you would get canceled for playing Hogwarts Legacy when it released. I still feel anxious about picking it up again because others made me feel that I was a horrible person for liking things like Harry potter. 😅
I didn’t mean to make you feel that way at all. I’m just careful of purchasing from budget companies because of quality issues and at times art theft. There are several diamond painting companies out there that are producing and marketing affordable selections that are legally licensed so that is always good!
@theprincipalpainter it wasnt you really its just people who are not so kind to those who cant afford this craft like others can. I just want more advanced level snack size paintings. I just can't do the big paintings anymore due to storage limitations and no one wants me to gift them paintings anymore. Businesses aren't taking gifts like these either in my area. It was hard to even gift a Randal Spangler piece to the library once.
@@autumnsartstudio Do you have a Michaels in your area or a Joannes? Michaels has Make Market and their product and renderings are really great! Joanns also carries some great brands as well. Both stores have great sales. I got several Christmas DPs at Michaels at 50% off. Also, Diamond Art Club sells smaller paintings through Amazon that are smaller non cartoony designs that are really pretty for really reasonable prices. I have a peacock from DAC and Amazon by artist Lola Gonzales that I love!
I didn’t catch the company name of Audrey Hepburn dping. Which company? Do you seal your paintings? If so, what do you use? And finally, if you do seal them, is it only full drill paintings or do you seal partials also? I really enjoyed seeing your 2023 review.
Loved all your finishes Carra! It's such fun watching these Year in Review videos. I'm still busy watching them, even well into 2024. 😂❤
Oh, I love the idea of an elf bathroom!!!
They are all beautiful but i think my favorite might be Elf!!
Awesome they r all
So pretty

Gorgeous paintings. You did great adding all the embellishments! I love your Hannah Lynn’s the best. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Love the elf one!!!
Wow, so many beautiful finishes! I simply can't pick a favorite. 😉😊

I absolutely love the Dakotas you worked on!
I like the one you did for your son's. It kind of reminds me of James Lumbers paintings that I love.
Thank you for sharing, Carra! Congratulations on all your finishes! I love the Guardians of the Lake, it's on my wish list but it is quickly moving to the top, it is beautiful completed!
Love all your diamond paintings
All of your paintings are fabulous! ❤️I really enjoyed this video!
Good finishes 💞💞💎💞
Beautiful finishes! If you could someday do a video on the actual process of how to plan out replacing drills would be greatly appreciated!
That is a great idea! I’ll work on that and get one out!!! Thank you for the great suggestion!!

You’re husbands reaction to the posidon painting is hilarious 😂
@@DiamondsAreAGirlsBestFriend16 No worries! If it helps people out I’m fine!💖💖
I love how that picture frame came out that you did for your Christmas premiere.
Fantastic finishes! I love how they are all personalized :)
I had so much fun with adding different bling here and there. Thanks so much for watching! I hope you are having a great 2024 Rachel!💖💖
Great finishes! Your parents sound so sweet at the beginning!

He does! That was a fun one to do! I’m trying for more of a variety of artists and styles this year…we will see where the year leads!

Yes! I think you should go for it! I’d love to hear how you are liking it!!💖💖
When you get the blueberry ferry finished, can we please see it? I’m dying to see it and I added it to my wish list.
Absolutely! I’m dying to get to work on it!! 💖💖

The only thing I've seen at my walmart is Diamond dotz but there's not much variety that is rotated. It's the same designs restocked.

@theprincipalpainter unfortunately not one in my town
I would have to travel 30 minutes to get to the nearest craft store lol 😆
Really beautiful selection! The camera shot at the end was brilliant😂
Marlin is always doing crazy things with the camera that I have no clue about until I see the video!!!😂😂😂
Thank you for sharing your finished paintings. Absolutely beautiful.

Poseidon is hunky❤❤❤❤
