Also, I always thought Altenew had a whole collection of stamp sets that would be perfect for as ink blocks or letter press plates. It's so awesome to see that they are using the style from that collection & making them into press plates. This has been long-awaited for some of us!
You rock!Your knowledge, your presentation, your examples, altogether a great video that I am saving and will refer to often for inspiration and technique.

Love the “ gold standard” comparisons. I think you did a great job showing what works best for this tool .
Thanks for all the testing of the different inks and papers. It helps to know where you can push the envelope when playing with your stash.
This was the best video I have seen on the comparisons of the inks and papers. I love your coloring so much! I’m new to your videos and want to see more. Your ideas on what the companies can do in the future are also so on spot. Thanks for doing all the different mediums to see what works best too. Fantastic job!
Outstanding presentation! Thank you for your research. You answered several questions and as a result I purchased the two plates currently available from Altenew. Look forward to more from you. Have an amazing day, Thanks.

Beautiful Jaycee! Thanks for all the Better Press tips. I had wondered why the hot foil plates won’t work. 🤔
Hi Jaycee. I always look forward to your videos when new product is released. Your are the official Tester/ Researcher for all of us. Thank you for explaining the Better Press system and the Altenew plates. Also, I appreciate your research into the papers, inks, and mediums that work best with the Press. It takes the guess work out of it for us so we don't get so frustrated. I love your wish list at the end of the video. I always know you are going to ask for your Signature Black Cardstock for your gorgeous cards. I hope they all come true❤

Thorough demonstration Jaycee. Beautiful cards panels as well. I did experiment with mine and was able to color with my Olo markers and the Saffron Archival ink with no bleeding or smearing of the Saffron ink ( let the panel sit overnight before coloring) This new tool has so many possibilities. Love that we have 2 sources for BetterPress plates. I too am wishing for something besides flowers. ;)

Thank you for sharing your tips! According to Spellbinders, the BetterPress Ink is formulated similarly to Archival Ink from Ranger. I bet that's why it works so well!
Thank you for all the research you did and for sharing the results! I love the Altenew press plates - so beautiful!
Love the white foiling on the Neenah Desert Storm cardstock.
Love the gorgeous cards. I also have a much better understanding of the Betterpress techniques after this video.
Another fabulous video. I’ve just bought the better press system and I think I’ll invest those plates as opposed to the glimmer plates since both work. Also, yes! I love when the stamp companies work together. That’s always a win for us crafters.
The BetterPress is my new favorite tool! Wow
Oh my the foiling with the plates…..STUNNING
Jaycee, loved this video! I have had mine a few weeks and haven’t yet used it. I feel equipped to do so now that I have watched your video, these are all things I would have tried and possibly still might. I love the requests for more color ways to color the impressions. Until your video I had no idea that Altenew had produced BetterPress plates also. I love when companies work together to grow the crafting options rather than sue other companies that improve on their products…. Ultimately that only hurts the crafters. So proud of Altenew and Spellbinders for communicating and improving our experience. I am an avid crafter and purchase many, many products from both Altenew, Spellbinders and many others monthly. Thank you for providing a very thorough, detailed and interesting review. I liked and subscribed also. 😉👋
Wow! Thank you Jaycee, for a great in-depth overview! Your coloring techniques are amazing!
Oh wow! That’s such a detailed informative video on the better press system! Loved the amazing techniques you showcased and the lovely cards❤
