    Hi Darcy. You had me laughing the whole time!😂 your masterboard ephemera turned out really good. I can't make a choice between the raccoon and the fox but they are my two faves. Ooh, and also that belly band. It was all good and I learned some new tips. TFS 😊

    @DarcysMixedMedia thanks! I'm recovering enough that I'm dying to get back to crafting. 😆 🤣 I've never been one to lay around and this time is no difference. Thanks for asking though! Have a great weekend!

    Love the Racoon! We had a nest of them under our shed, and my husky got bit by one because she was too curious! All good, the vet checked her out, and the raccoons moved on. 😊

    I like to start around the edge of my papers. And those are cut straight. But when i overlap, i use torn edges. I work my way towards the center . I love watching you.

    I usually do a master board using the scraps as I go in a project so that they go with what I'm doing. However I have done some neutral ones that where all different shapes and one made with circles.

    I prefer to tear my papers when collaging but I recently made some Ink Box cards and combines gel prints with printed papers. Those I cut straight it was okay

    Hi Darcy, new subscriber here. I found you through Ceri. I love your journal project. Don't worry about squeeky seat, it's obviously well used 😜. I thought about making a journal, but can you show a finished product on how it's used? Don't need to see what has been written, but just how they are used. It just seems a lot of work to make these. Thanks from Scotland, UK ❤️❤️

    Did you try Vaseline for your chair? I’m wondering if that might work.btw, do you use a mic? I’m wondering if I should get one. I’ve got the #howdoyoudo collaboration done and working diligently on my Language of Flowers Journal. I loved trying to make bubble paper.

    I've only used regular WD40. The silicone version was suggested. I'm hoping my dad will look at it when he gets back next week. If it won't stop then I'll move this chair to the desktop computer and get myself a new one (or fix up that one to be less annoying-it has rips in the arms that are taped and sticky from loose tape). I still have not started my #HowDoYouDo; I'm not finished with my #makerscreativecollab2024 for April.

    For a long time, I just used the internal mic on my phone. I had a clip on one for a while (I'd clip it to a cord and not myself or it would just be noise from my clothing and heavy breathing). Now I have a cardioid mic on a stand.

    I enjoyed watching your video and seeing your process. Beautiful ephemera. Thank you for sharing. I tried out my new gell press yesterday and managed to make some nice print. I wanted to continue with it today but I am having a low energy day today. Maybe tomorrow will be better. I also really enjoy making masterboards, I still struggle with doing something with them after making them. I try not to worry too much about that, the important thing is that I am having fun making things and what it will end up being is not important right now (A relatively wild concept for me🙃).💙🫂

    Thank you, Erna, luv. 💙 I have a good-sized stash of masterboards myself. I agree: the fun of creating is the important part. Some day when you're in an ephemera-making mood, you'll get to your masterboard stash. 😉
