Dreamy Waters Designs

Holiday commissions are open. Last day to order is November 10.

Custom Watercolor Holiday Cards

Custom watercolor holiday cards, hand-painted from your photos here in Austin. Your family, your dog, your cat who hates the dog, the house you just bought. Whoever you want on the front of the envelope that lands in everyone’s mailbox in December.

What You Get

A hand-painted 5×7 watercolor design, yours at $125. Take it as a digital file and print it wherever you like, or have me handle the printing too. Tell me how many cards you need and I’ll quote the printing with your order.

  • Digital file, ready to send to any printer
  • Or digital plus printed cards, quoted by quantity
  • Painted from photos you send me, no sitting still required

Order by November 10

November 10 is the last day I take holiday orders. Every card is painted by hand, one at a time, so there is a real limit to how many I can fit before the mail gets slow and everybody starts panicking about stamps.

Not a holiday card person? These same commissions make good birthday, anniversary and new-baby gifts all year.

Painted for Other People, First

A few commissions from this year. Yours would be its own thing entirely.

How It Works

  1. One

    Send Me Your Photos

    Start an inquiry and send the photos you want painted. Clear faces and good light help, but I have worked from worse.

  2. Two

    I Paint It

    Everyone in watercolor, arranged on the page, with whatever greenery, ribbon or snow you want around them.

  3. Three

    Proof and Revisions

    You see a proof and we fix anything that is not quite right before it is final.

  4. Four

    Delivery

    Your digital file lands in your inbox, and printed cards ship if you have ordered them.

Order Your Cards

Tell me who you want painted and whether you want printing handled. Orders close November 10.

Jamielee is AMAZING. We were lucky to have her help us in designing all of our stationery and we are so excited to have her do live guest illustrations on our wedding day. She is so talented and was spectacular in really understanding our vision, taking feedback and inspiration while also staying true to her style and creative direction. We can’t recommend her enough, she is one of the best decisions we have made in our wedding journey!

Jamielee is an absolute delight to work with and incredibly talented! She took several photos that I sent her and created a lovely collage for us to give to my mother in law at my father in laws memorial send off. She also created a lovely image of my immediate family and we proudly have it hung in our living room. I can’t wait to hire her again!

Jamielee crafted the save the dates and invitations for my fiancé and I’s wedding and I just LOVE them. It was really important to me that our stationery was unique, personalized, and memorable. Jamielee nailed it! She was also a dream to work with. Everything was quick, easy, and affordable. I’m looking forward to using her services for future events.

Jamielee created the perfect Father’s Day portrait that I ordered for my brother. She is an incredibly talented artist and a great communicator. I am definitely going to be ordering more art from her in the future!

Very grateful for the designs that Dreamy Waters Designs did for my upcoming micro wedding. She took my theme, preferred colors, and location and created beautiful and timeless designs for save the dates, invites, and thank you cards that we will be able to use for the wedding and display with other photos and memorabilia for years to come. Highly recommend for any wedding stationery needs.

Jamie Lee made me the most beautiful family watercolor for a gift. She paid attention all the nice little details and the painting turned out even better than I expected!

Where to begin. Dreamy Waters did an incredible job making invitations for my bridal shower. I had no clue the invitations were going to be done with so much care and attention to detail. The artist has an eye for design and will certainly exceed your expectations. Perfect for a more personalized approach! Thank you again. The invitations were lovely!

My husband loves his Father’s Day drawing with the kids. Such a sweet gift idea that also preserves memories.
