They are still sitting here on my desk, waiting for inspiration on what to write in them. Oh the move! Well, here is the update - we met with the realtor Monday and got the farm listing started. There is another trip to GA on the schedule mid-Feb. And the farm auction is scheduled for mid-April. The donkeys are being picked up this Friday. And we have a lot of cleaning still to do before farm pics are taken in a couple of weeks. The list seems never-ending, but there is slow progress every week.

Hello dearest Julia... what a delightful surprise to see your video, and I am so happy that you are settling in to your interim craft studio. It is lovely that you are able to get back in to making some cards again, and these cards as always are gorgeous. When you made the backgrounds as you didn't use watercolour paper, and you used a considerable amount of water did you find that your cardstock warped? Perhaps you could eventually invest in the Ranger Distress Watercolour cardstock as it has a textured and a smooth side. I have never seen the Ken Oliver colour burst before, are they new to your craft studio? I really like the effect that the powder has when it comes in contact with water. Julia, you have been through quite a lot over these past few months, and please know that you are in my prayers. God's blessings, love and hugs. Gloria 🤗🙏💐❤

@SeniorSusieStamps 5 ай бұрын

G'Day Gloria!! I have scads of watercolor paper in a box somewhere...LOL And, I was really surprised the paper didn't warp much. What warping there was just added to the interest of the finished card - especially the 2nd card. The triple foam tape on the back really acts to straighten out the little bit of warping there was. I have use Ken Oliver colorburst in some other videos. It is an amazing result when you use it with baby wipes too. As always you are in my prayers as well. Take care down under!!
