Your newsletter host should have a bot/spam email address flag/filter built in program. When I got my BetterPress, the first thing I did was test their inks with coloring with markers. Then tested all my inks to see if they work just for pressing. They do. Gorgeous cards, Kelly.

❤️❤️❤️ In regards to the past card you were talking about. Your work is beautiful as always however, it may have been the dark purple background that threw it off a little. That being said, all your cards are stunning, don't sweat it.

In Michigan and set my pool at 95 it gets to like 90 and it’s wonderful like bath water. Especially since I usually swim in the evening when it’s cooler outside. 😁

I cant afford watercolor paper ( or any more supplies) so I may try this with my thick 120 lb cardstock and mist it before impressing.

What brand of glue gun do you use

Kelly, I recently purchased a BetterPress system. I’ve been waiting for the pro-creators trial and error period. I’m so excited you posted this video and showed all the inks that work well with alcohol markers and the BetterPress! Many thanks for your expertise at being a superb colorist and an inspiration to all of us! I’m eager to try pressing and coloring a few cards for my floral loving friends.

That’s so sweet! Eric is certainly a keeper lol! Great story, thanks for sharing 😊🌸🦋

Striking cards. That black background and bright flowers gets me every time. I think I *need* some arch dies.

That’s such a stunning card!, I know that lots of practice has gone into learning watercolouring but you are also very talented. Thanks for sharing 🌸🦋

Absolutely gorgeous colouring Kelly, you have taught me so much, my KZfaq channel is called ‘Bea Spoke Crafts’ please pop over and see how you have inspired me 😊😊 I always watch to the end too 😊

This is an adorable card! I am absolutely not a cat person because abuse I’m so allergic to them, but I agree with you, the glasses on this cat are so cute! I also love how you used the background stamp as wallpaper. As always, your coloring/highlighting skills are phenomenal. You are my favorite colorist on KZfaq. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

Love the cards and being able to use my copics.

Beautiful cards. I love your coloring.

The Glue Press was one of those tools i immediately regretted buying. I kept trying to use the glue it came with using the larger tip and no matter what I tried it kept clogging. I thought that this tool should work best with the glue it came with. After watching many videos of people using the glue press and loving it I realized that at least 95% of them put a different type of glue in them. They didn’t use the glue that came with the tool. I tried to tough it out and use up all the glue in the original bottle but finally opened it and washed it all out and put Barely Art glue in one and the other bottle will have Art Glitter Glue. Now I like my glue press

Such beautiful cards. You never disappoint.

Kelly, I love watching you color, especially flowers. When you bring in the lightest color and the whole thing comes to life, it makes my heart so happy.

I have also experimented with various types of card stocks and inks and haven’t found anything that hasn’t worked well. My favorite thing about the better press system is that you look like a pro from your first print ( I totally recommend watching the spellbinders introduction to using it because I have seen other videos and they don’t do it exactly as it is meant to be done so if you watch that and get mixed results that is why) so do it exactly as spellbinders shows you using the supplies they send with the tool and then branch out and experiment. I have absolutely no regrets in purchasing that tool.

Your mom sounds like my kind of lady. I am all for spending time with your kids playing with them but mom’s need some time with peace and quiet and relaxation

Gorgeous thanks you Kelly!!! Happy 4th to you and yours ❤

Beautiful cards! I love your color combinations and the different designs you gave each one. 🩷

Beautiful cards I’m siding with Eric. High 80s is too hot for a pool. 😂 Our 10 day forecast is nothing but 104+ and our pool is currently like bath water. You’d love it. It’s gross 😜

I love using my Copics and so your research on alcohol safe inks for BetterPress is super helpful. These cards are so beautiful, the details you add to your cards make them extra special

Beautiful cards! You make coloring look so easy. Hopefully this time next year my daughter will be headed to dental school. Congratulations and good luck to your nephew. That is not an easy thing to accomplish. You have to work hard, study hard and want to do it. Happy 4th of July to you and your family! Thank you!

I just placed over a 300$ order thru your link after watching you using the different inks and copics. Game changer... thanks for enabling me? I think? Thank God my paychecks don't pay the bills so I am able to get what I want when I want. Not everyone is that blessed. I think I have an addiction because june and July have really been an addiction possible for me. I don't get into a pool either unless it is warm... I would like hot tub warm, but my entire family would complain. Hot tub....im all in. Pool... not so much.

STUNNING. JUST. STUN.NING. 😍

Beautiful. Love your coloring

❤

❤🎉😊

So so cute! Love the card, your scenes never disappoint!

Kelly, thank you so much for everything. I come for you coloring and your card design. I really enjoy your sense of humor. These all were stunning. Always pick up something knew. Thanks for everything, your details are perfect

Kelly, Thank you for addressing my question about your newsletter. I'll be patiently waiting for you to say sign-up is available again.

These are fabulous! Have fun celebrating. I really don’t decorate cakes anymore but try royal icing, print out your words on your printer paper and put a piece of acetate on top (they do sell that at the cake store) and then just trace. I use the royal icing from the mix. Very easy!

Such a cute card! It sounds like you have a lot of great memories with your dad. That's really great. My dad and I weren't close at all, so it's nice to hear about someone else's positive experience.

Absolutely GORGEOUS 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Kelly these should be reproduced and sold You would have lots sold just off these Kelly!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

kelly, I think you are great! I have told you many times I dont know what I would do without you in the middle of the night. Here in Minnesota the weather has been nothing but rain and flooding now that the rain has gone down and we are off the island it is going to rain so we have plans to take our special needs daughter to the parade always lots of planning for a week but rain or no rain we are going lol the nurse that works for us has been with us for 20 years. ❤ my sister lives on the route so we have a quiet place to go with her if it gets to be to much. I hope your cake turns out the way you want it to have fun swimming and have a great family day. Thank you for showing that other inks work would you try memento black if it works. I would love to buy the press if the memento works. I use your links alot so that would maybe will help for a kick back to you after all it is free for me to use your link. Happy 4th of July 🎆

Beautiful!!!!!!♥️♥️

Love when you use markers to color the card designs. Beautuful coloring, gorgeous cards! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Very cute card!

Wow, these cards are just gorgeous!

Nice job Kelly! I am curious if you felt that the watercolor paper soaked up more copic ink than regular copic paper? Looking forward to see more alcohol ink and the Better Press. I will be trying this.

I played with my new Betterpress this past weekend, and used both Simon Says Stamps inks and Stampin' Up inks on my press plates. I also used Canson watercolor paper. It all worked! Please continue to play away and let us know the results!

Even living in SW Florida you need a pool heater. Unfortunately we have been getting storms everyday, so with any luck it will be cleared up in time for fireworks. The critters are adorable. Happy 4th.

Happy 4th of July 🎉 love all the cards ❤

Stunning cards

Gorgeous coloring and very elegant cards. ❤

woow!! nice coloring ! beautiful cards!!!

Absolutely beautiful cards❤. Thanks for the ink tips! Happy 4th !!!

Instead of piping icing on cakes, remember you can always make a detailed stencil on your Cricut! Depending on the cake, you might be able to just dust powdered sugar through the stencil for a quick and easy sentiment. I want the letterpress so much, but that would mean also purchasing the Spellbinder's die cutting machine and my Gemini is perfectly good. Sigh.

Stunning cards! I can't justify buying a better press when I have so many floral stamp sets. But this is tempting. Beautiful coloring!!!

Love all of the coloring and appreciate the experimentation that you did and shared with us!
