Excellent idea to put the Gambol in a pen!!! I love your cards as always. It is so relaxing watching your artistic abilities! thanks so much!

Will the Gamsol evaporate from the pen?

@brigit2470 Жыл бұрын

She put the Gamsol in an empty Copic marker so the brush end would soak up the Gamsol and she would then keep a cover on it when not using.

Oh em Gee, CZ, you hit it out if the park with all your cards today! It was SO much fun to watch you create these works of art - it’s a treat to see how pleased you are when things work out so well! I know that feeling well when I’m creating too! It’s interesting that you commented at then end about how much you gain from challenging yourself to create on-the-spot…I could see that creative spark ⚡️ all along as you worked today. Just love your work, Cathy. And, your hair looked lovely today too…such pretty curls. ❤❤❤

@VickiTheCraftAttic Жыл бұрын

When I really need to fussy cut I trace the outline of the whole stamp (light pencil mark) before I pick the stamp up with the MISTI, to give me a guideline. Some stamps work better than others, but it gives me a starting point. My fav is card #3.

@kmmiller9876 Жыл бұрын

Those poppy stamps will be perfect for all the cards I donate to the VA Hospital for our service men and women! Your cards are beautiful. Your coloring is gorgeous. AND, filling the pen with Gamsol is genius! P.S. I will be happy if the poppies bloom by June. I think we will have snow here in the Cities until June.❄ Thanks for all the wonderful layout ideas.

Perfect color on the poppy. My mom planted them years ago and the liveon. Exactly the same color as you describe. Must be the Minnesota poppy color. You really made some cool cards with this unboxing.

I’m only halfway through but wanted to say thanks for the tip about the storage envelopes and the TH sets. (I’ve got a lot of TH red rubber sets and while theoretically they’re supposed to stay on the stiff plastic sheets, I’ve lost at least one stamp that went AWOL from the sheet. Hopefully I’ll find Santa and the reindeer someday.)

Love all these cards and I think I need this kit. Both my mom and my brother in law worked for the post office so as long as the card and envelope aren’t more than an ounce and fit inside their little measuring thing at the post office then it doesn’t require extra postage so the only one that might require extra is the shaker card because of the weight. My whole wedding invitation bundle only needed one stamp

Hahahaha....you cracked me up on this one. Of course, you always do. But the fussy cutting part had me laughing the hardest. I absolutely HATE fussy cutting. It makes me feel anxious! I'm not sure why. I know it's only paper but I really don't want to mess it up. I would rather take the time to create an svg file in order for my Cricut to cut the stamped item than fussy cut. Crazy I know. And those cards were beautiful! I love them so much. I especially love those transparent designs. I wasn't sure how those were meant to be used, but you've given me some great ideas! Thank you!! I can't wait until the next video.

@czdesign Жыл бұрын

Can you do a scan, trace and cut in Cricut? I swear you can do it in Silhouette. I never think to try! My Silhouette is gathering dust somwhere!

@lizjohnson1174 Жыл бұрын

@@czdesign You most certainly can. If you scan and turn it into a png you can normally clean up the background and add it to your images. Then you use the offset and it works great. Of course you can only do offset on a computer not an iPad. 😣 For me working on a computer and creating the offset of the stamp is really relaxing. At least it's not FUSSY CUTTING! LOL Yes try it on your Silhouette. I love the Silhouette software better than Cricut. I do a lot on there and then transfer it to Cricut for cutting. It's pretty simple. You're MY crafting genius so I know if I can do it, you can to! LOL Get the dust off that Silhouette!
