Well, I just bumped into your channel. Serendipity. I’m having so much fun watching you. I don’t make cards, I make Junk Journals. I love your craft papers for junk journals. So much color. And I love crumpled papers! Did you say you’re kinda new with your KZfaq channel? You’d never know it. I’m maybe your newest subscriber. But I give it 2 minutes and someone else will be joining you too. Lol♥️♥️♥️ Edit: There were 2.4K views on this video!!! Come on people! He deserves a thousand or so of you to subscribe. Lol. I hope word of mouth spreads around for you! Loved your cards.

Loved the video. Great idea to use the brown packing paper. I seriously think you should at least take some time and lay the new pieces you made today on 5 x 6.5 or 5 x 7 cards. Leave them alone for a day or two. Make some more brown paper "smooshers" (I just made that up, can you tell???) or play with some other crafty items. Look at those "on the side" pieces every now and then. After you've looked at them for a day or two, then decide. Do you still want to cut them for an A2 or go for it and use both full size pieces on bigger cards? If it were me, I KNOW I would be sorry if I cut them to fit an A2 card just for the sake of making an A2 card. You don't have to follow card size rules! I'm anxious to see more as I too am digging today's "smooshers"! Right on!

@ManleyMadeMinute 4 күн бұрын

Great suggestion! Thanks. Plus I have so much packing paper so bigger sizes would be great.

People who are learning are so much fun to watch. They have energy! And ideas! Your finished cards are little works of art. So glad you didn't mess them up by plopping on a sentiment. A thought on card size: A2 cards are the size the craft industry has married itself to because it fits standard American paper. It's not exactly a luxury size. Make big cards! Handmade cards should feel like a gift, substantial in the hand and on display. You will never regret making larger sizes.

@JeanandKenny Күн бұрын

I agree, I personally like A6, A7 and I LOVE 5x5's. I never understood making a tiny A2 card, it takes the same amount of work. When I send or give one away, I want them to be able to see it!

I love the heat tool, as it is not only hot, it’s quiet! I will add fluid matte medium onto a gel plate and press my inked paper into it, keeping it from smearing. Love your examples. . I wanted something fun to do this evening and this project fits the bill, so thanks for the inspiration, Shawn. (Is this the correct spelling?). BTW, I avoid distress inks for stamping for the obvious reason. In addition to Archival inks, you may want to try Versafine or Versafine Claire inks, for they are great with showing detail with some stamps. Keep on playing and experimenting. You’ve got this! I need to go dumpster diving, so I could find such a perfect weight! LOL I have a very heavy old book….

@ManleyMadeMinute 3 күн бұрын

Thank you!!! I have one versafine and one moment and live them! I definitely need to get some more mediums for mixed media stuff! Playing with what I have! Ha! Love scrapping and upcycling!

Enjoyed watching you just experiment 🎉 You might want to try TH's Distress Glaze. Seals the ink while brightening the colors. No dry time, no tools and no clean up. Surface will be ready for whatever you plan next - stamping, writing, painting, collaging etc. Thx again

@ManleyMadeMinute 3 күн бұрын

Oh!!! Ok gonna have to look for that? Any other suggestions for great mediums to use especially for texture??

@user-vy2jp3zu2r 2 күн бұрын

@@ManleyMadeMinute I'm on a budget so instead of texture pastes I add baby powder/ talc to what ever paint I'm used. You can make it as thick or subtle as you want. Works great for me. I also use lots of "bits" those pieces of everything that you just have to keep, "in case". Thx for the reply, you're a doll. Just watched your watercolor video great stuff.

Happy your channel just popped up on my home feed. These are great! I’m a gonna try it now! Did you ask about card sizes in your video? I see comments discussing sizes but don’t recall if you asked 🤔 Regardless, I think the card should match your art rather than making your art fit a specific card size. Whether tiny weenie or extra large or anything in between, I think people should make it how they want it. I personally like yours as you did them. Now off I go into the rabbit hole of your previous videos 😂

@ManleyMadeMinute 3 күн бұрын

No didn’t mention sizes but great point as I think I have only made a couple cards that weren’t A2. Definitely have to try it more! Thanks for watching!

Hi Shawn. My name is Linda. UT served up this video and I am so glad it did. I couldn't stop watching it. TFS. I create handmade junk/art journals and sell on Etsy also, LL Creations Studio. I was wondering if you would be interested in creating journaling cards, ATC in different themes than your greeting cards and sell on Etsy for the rest of us to purchase and use in our journals? I am interested in Sabby Chic, Botanicals and most of all Gothic. I know and realize these themes would be all new colors and themes for you. But would certainly broaden your customer base. Thanks you and again I liked your teaching style and liked and sign up as a new subbie. Hugs Linda

I have been a stamper for 35 years. I like your technique a lot. You would benefit greatly if you "conditioned" your stamps. They would hold more ink and you wouldn't have to stamp 3-4 times to get a crisp dark image. And buy refills to keep your pads juicy as well. Dry pads suck. LOL
