Would love to see a video of what’s all in your rainy day stash!

@nickytmorris Месяц назад

agree!

@queenofdiamonds7171 Месяц назад

I love how you said that the purple fairy dust diamonds “understood the assignment”. That was perfect!

@Marielle_Wolters Месяц назад

A flip trough your logbook would be so fun!

@Poodlepaws44 Месяц назад

Agreed! I'd love to see it once she finishes the log book. It'd be a fun review of her journey.

@the_diamondpainting_accountant Месяц назад

Ahhhh I’m OBSESSED with Amy Brown’s dragons! I would LOVE to go on a trip down memory lane through your log book where you show a completion picture (if you have one) on the screen next to your log book as you talk about it!

@Poodlepaws44 Месяц назад

All of your kits for this month are lovely, but DAC did an AMAZING job with It's Okay to Be Different. Usually they don't use enough special drills for me, but this one just came out phenomenal. The mix of crystals and fairy dust in the gold areas looks so lovely together and as far as a partial kit goes, this one is perfect. Generally partials aren't my cup of tea but this one is perfect. It's so cool you were able to finish it this month.

@auroragloqueen4979 27 дней назад

Wow! That’s great four in a month. Excellent work and dedication. You are inspiring.

@GailMcCormick Месяц назад

It would be so fun to flip through your book! Partly to see the book, and partly because flipping through all the canvases themselves isn't really possible.

@mlebaron1 25 дней назад

ChrissaBug’s work is amazing!

@dolphinsrock09 Месяц назад

I loved your wip and chat on Autusim I was too shy about saying thank you for the educational opportunity I actually have a masters in forensic psychology and I love hearing a positive story about somebody getting the help that they need. I feel like in Denver Psychological treatment is not always so positive for people. I also had some experience with ABA with being a therapist. I was really happy for you that you sound like you have a lot of good support and that makes me so happy to hear. I also love all the videos you introduced me to the diamond art club and I have been falling in love so much.

@robinpennington5758 Месяц назад

Thank you for sharing, Katie. I would love to see all of the diamond paintings you have completed! This was not my first time seeing your Month in Review videos, I am here for them every month 😃 I have one finish for April, it was a 80x60 from Captured by Radiance, super confetti heavy. I am almost done with Saint by Dakota Daetweiler for the Dakotathon, another day or two for this one. Hope you have a great rest of your week!

@AndreasCraftingJourney Месяц назад

Love all your finishes. April has also been my beat month for diamond painting finishes. I was able to complete 3 since they were all on the smaller side.

@robinhartloff1008 Месяц назад

Wow 😮 absolutely love your finishes!! That Medusa is definitely on my wishlist, Chrissabug is always an instant need. I only completed Aset last month for the Chrissabugalong and I absolutely adored it! I really hope she draws more Egyptian gods/goddesses!

@tennille1116 Месяц назад

Medusa is stunning! I’m so glad I picked that one up

@JustSheilz Месяц назад

I would love to see a flip thru of the log book!!!

@unicorn32169 Месяц назад

Love the dragon

@margiegreiss5468 Месяц назад

Great finishes.. thanks for sharing...a flip through would be really fun

@animegirl300 Месяц назад

That's a good idea about the journal. I have been keeping track on my notepad on my phone. I'm going to use a journal instead.

@Zoeygrl768 Месяц назад

Love the baby purple dragon.

@Zoeygrl768 Месяц назад

Anyone seen this in a destash?

@stephaniethacker6796 Месяц назад

I loved your finishes this month, Katie! I had a belated finish for Mermaids and Magic this month and I started on the Mother’s Day Mystery Kit from DAC that came out a couple of years ago and hope I can knock that out in May. I’m excited to see what you work on next month! 😊

@shauna5718 Месяц назад

This is my first month in review, new to your channel

@mysteriousdays Месяц назад

This month I completed a 30 by 40 budget kit that I’ve had as a WIP for a few months now. I am almost done with Moonlight Bath from Randall Spangler, which I have been piece mail working on since April of 2023. I’ve also worked on Day Fishing At the Mill by Dominic Davidson as a gift. Next month/this month my plans are to finish up the round 30 by 40 budget kits that I’ve got left (I have 3 and bought them before I knew about licensing, so the quality takes a bit to make myself work on), work on Day Fishing by the Mill, and if I get Woman in Gold for my birthday on the 19th, start that as I am practicing in three events in June: Summer with the Masters, Add More Zest’s June WIP and Waffle, and Diamond Painting Anonymous’s DP for Pets (I will be doing Hugo Hebe for the latter two events, doubling up on a smaller kit so this is actually feasible). Overall: there’s lots planned, but I am absolutely having a blast.

@gloripetersen3745 Месяц назад

Nice work! I can't comprehend how quickly 31:36 you do these projects. I'm working on DAC Lean On Me in round drills. I'm also doing Art And Souls, Sitting On A Flower, square drills. Trying to mix it up. 💜🎨👋

@user-rw6sg7of2e Месяц назад

Beautiful finishes! I actually completed 2 in the month of April (one from March and a small Amazon DAC kit) Going into May with two WIPs . A DAC mystery (the one you previewed on your channel and Irish Coffee Dragon) Can’t wait to see what May brings!

@melissa_ann_sparkle Месяц назад

They all look great! Meanwhile I’m over here with no finishes but WIP and kitted up this month- 4 😂. Also, I like that the April dragon is from your rainy day stash (April showers). Yeah, I’m a dork

@artsy_gem.15 Месяц назад

I finished one diamond painting in April. It was the kit Somewhere Over the Rainbow by Maria Abagnale from DAC. :)) I am currently working on Big Sis by Ivy Dolamore from DAC, Moon Thief by Ivy Dolamore from DAC, Elegant Dragon by Anne Stokes from DAC, and Roselle by Michelle Xia from Munimade!!

@BarbaraMartorana Месяц назад

I love watching your videos! Thank you. 😊 😊

@beckiwoodhamscpccpbcrc6681 Месяц назад

Love it! I want to do a temperature project next year, these are so cool.

@diamondsandthoughts Месяц назад

I finished my first diamond painting. Seasons Change by JoJoesArt from DAC. Now im working on his Beautiful Death Colored for a me tal health event

@AndiAdams-xd5zg Месяц назад

I finished 2 and taking 2 WIPs to May!

@getsycoronado4747 Месяц назад

Thank you for sharing these! As always, I love these videos of yours. For the month of April, I completed a Paint Gem(Museum) kit for the first time - it was also my first time working with sqaure drills so that was a nice challenge. I'm participating in The Diamont Sticher's(Alysa) May event with another Paint Gem kit since I'll be moving and going for vacation. I'm excited cause it's the first time I'll be participating in an event!

@DiamondsAreAGirlsBestFriend16 Месяц назад

I love Michaela Renee’s channel! I’m doing Rose Library for it and making some fun enhancements. I also challenged myself to single place the whole thing 😮 not sure what I just got myself into

@nickytmorris Месяц назад

In April I finished Summer Nights by Hannah Lynn, a few Disney stickers from Craft Buddy, and the DAC Calendar (April). I also have my temperature bookshelf, which is complete through April. In May, i'm doing the Ivy event. My WIP is Moon Girlfriend. I'm also doing the DAC Calendar for May tonight/tomorrow. Otherwise, i'll complete more stickers and keep going with the temperature bookshelf. :)

@tammeyaa Месяц назад

So cool

@brandylangley1624 Месяц назад

That dragon is super cute! I completed 2 diamond paintings. Dream, with the blue tiger and orange fish. Inspiration Peak with the volcanoe. I just started Sakura Festival. She is going to take a long time lol

@aeltillialhae6805 Месяц назад

I finished Ocelot from DAC at the tailend of April. It was my first full drill canvas and it was a big one. It took me 85 hours and two months exactly to complete. Have Sitara from DAC in progress, and am about to start Piano Dream.

@elizabethwarman9028 Месяц назад

Hi Katie, good morning from Los Angeles County. Thank you for showing your completions and WIPs for April. Love the Dragon one. Reminds me of my Doxle Herschel. He loves sticking his nose in whatever I am drinking, including wine. I also love It is Okay to be different. Those of us on the Neurodivergent ruler know such, but everyone else need to accept. I am severely ADHD, and my personal assistant grandson is Autistic. I am still working on Golden Cocker Spaniel by Peggy Collins. This canvas is such a joy. Brings back wonderful memories of my English Cocker Spaniel I had in the 80s, and my American Cocker Spaniel I had from New Year's Eve 2010-2022. On a side note I love your table runner.

@angellearose Месяц назад

I finshed 4 kits myself ❤❤❤

@dolphinsrock09 Месяц назад

I am also enjoying your dragon kits each month the kit I am working on is a massive dragon kit at 124cmX70cm

@MariaMartinez_07 Месяц назад

Hi Katie! Thanks for sharing. Loved all the finishes 😊 Medusa is stunning!

@KimmyKim31 Месяц назад

Great review! I have 2 wip’s and working on Witch Bedroom by mrsbutterD. I just love the colors. I’m averaging about 2 diamond paintings a month. I just move slow i guess. Haha thanks for sharing , sweetie xoxo

@talagilbert2776 Месяц назад

I love the Amy Brown! I have all of her little dragon ones and recently finished Love Dragons. I’m sad DAC hasn’t released anything new from Amy. I’m having withdrawals!

@launcestoncrocheter9394 Месяц назад

@teresareade8221 19 дней назад

It’s acceptable only in America. Australia doesn’t get worked up over the symbols. My friends who have autism children I asked about this. They said it’s American thing. They said Americans get worked up over everything. I agree with.

@susandowney6386 Месяц назад

Love your channel. Just started my very first piece a week ago from DAC. I have a question, I notice a few drills that pop up and was wondering how to fix/avoid this. I've seen something like a brayer/roller, is it necessary to use this after completing a section? TIA.

@launcestoncrocheter9394 Месяц назад

Wow you have been busy

@stephaniewallace4234 Месяц назад
