Just thought you'd like to know that the reason they don't seep into the paper as fast as some other watercolor papers is because Arches is considered to be pretty "hard sized" out of the watercolor paper companies (meaning they use a bit more sizing than others, giving artists a longer working time before the paper starts to pull the paint into its surface.) Also, even with the hard sizing, hot pressed surfaces tend to absorb a tad faster so you made a great choice with the Arches Cold Pressed paper for the markers. Also, I continue to love your videos!

I am not using Arches Cold pressed paper and having problem with pilling. I am using Canson XL cols pressed. Why am I having a problem with this?

Dear Kristina,Just had to leave a comment about your gorgeous project here with the Tim Holtz Flower garden Stamps and the wonderful Zig Real Clean Color Markers. Kristina in my opinion this is probably your most beautiful painting yet. I watch all of your videos and I am always just so amazed with your God given creative flair and talent. I admire your creations so much. I only wish that I could paint and stay within the lines. It is something that I never have been able to do. I thought you also chose an excellent stamp to use as the stamp set has some amazing possibilities. You have truly brought everything to life in your interpretation using these stamps with the fabulous markers. I really have to get the set and have a play with them. I have a nice collection of Copics. I think that I have 74 all together but I loved the brush tips on the markers which you used. I just wanted to let you know how much I love your creations Kristina, and I also love your Mail Call as well. It is such fun seeing all the beautiful cards which people and children send to you. You are certainly an true inspiration to all who follow you Kristina, and I am so glad that I am one of them.Take care and be well Kristina and I will surely be looking for so much more in the future from you.Sincerely,Trish in New Zealand ♥

I am learning so much from watching your videos. I can't draw very well, so I love stamping and embossing. I have also wanted to try printing my layout from the many different stamp designs I have then using a glue pen to emboss over the lines from my printer, so I could put together a large piece printed on watercolor paper. I would love to see you do something like this to show us how well it can be done.

Karla Bostic versamark makes a pen you can use for detailing in case the stamp didn't get all of the pattern. It can be refilled with glycerin and water mix, a diy fix. Go to frugal crafter on KZfaq, she has tons of great videos! Hope this helps.

Kristina, you're such a talented artist...you remind me of my (adult) daughter as both of you seem to create such beautiful artwork. I have all these supplies you used here, however my results are not even close to yours in my opinion..mine are nice but not stunning like yours! I started stamping way back in the early 80's mostly because I cannot draw or freehand paint anything, which always seemed to confuse my mother as I was the only one in the family who couldn't, lol. Here I am years later still stamping and thrilled that I can make lovely cards and gifts because I am able to use the artwork that someone else drew that was made into a stamp. While I will never be the artist that you are, I thank you for always being so helpful with all the information that you provide in your videos as they have helped me create better cards etc. Now...if only I had your talent and your gorgeous handwriting!! Thank you again Krisitina for all your beautiful and informative videos! xxx
