When I use a jar of a water-based medium (e.g., polish or paste), I spritz with distilled water before closing it up again. If one is starting to soliddify but still somewhat malleable, I'll add quite a bit of distilled water and use a pokey tool to help distribute it and stir it. (I also keep a glass rod for that, which is very easy to clean, but not as good for poking holes.)

Hi Mary! When I’m using multiple stencils with pastes/textures, I keep a shallow dish or “Tupperware” container that is big enough to hold the stencils and fill it half way with water. That way I just throw the used stencil in the water so it doesn’t dry and I don’t have to clean them until I’m done creating.

Just heard your comment about "like chemistry class - but more fun". I laughed out loud. Ask me just about anything about art things or gardening. ask me anything about chemistry things - you will get the deer-in-the-headlights look 🤣. ANYTHING is MORE fun than chemistry stuff. Love putting paste over top of an inked background and YES fall should be full of wonderous colors (the angle of the fall sun is priceless for gorgeous FULL colors of everything around us). Fall's late afternoon light is the best of the best in this artist's opinion. Haven't tried my tiny brushes yet (bringing in the winter firewood right now 😁). What about really sharp tipped colored pencils with stencils? I think that might really be fun??!! 🙃 Think I may try that to see how it goes. Glad to see your daughters' hands again too 🥰 Love your down-to-earth videos. they are fun, full of inquisitive experimentation.

Your cards are always amazing. I purchased a whole bunch of stamps, mica powder, I even got the ohhuhu 216 set. All thi I did because I wanted to start making cards to sell. Boy did I have an awakening, there are so many ways to make so many cards. I was ordering if you could share with me, and anyone else that wants to know, how do you do shading? I keep trying and practicing, but I'm not getting the look I want. As a side note, I wanted to join the air force, I took the test and passed but I couldn't even do reserves because I have a pin in my left knee. I admire that in you, and thank you for your service. I'm sorry it's so long but I felt the need to say and ask what I did. Thank you

Hi Michelle! I don't have too many tips for shading except to keep watching videos and keep practicing. You'll start to get a feel for what you like and what works best. I like to saturate the image with the lightest color, then fill in the shaded darkest colors, medium, light and then again if needed. I'm sorry to hear about the AF but all things work out as they should. You can always become an AF civilian if that interests you. There are lots of different jobs. I wish you all the best!

Hi Eli, I don't really shop from them so I'm afraid I won't be much help on this front. :(

I hope you had a very happy World Card Making Day, Mary! My SIL's birthday was (officially) last Thursday. Since Mama & I couldn't get together with them then then, as they both had to work, they decided yesterday (yep, WCMD) would be perfect! So, between the 5+/- hour round trip drive & about a 2-3 hour "linner" (like brunch, but lunch/dinner), I got zero crafty time yesterday. Sigh! It was nice to get together, of course, but still.... Maybe WCMD needs to be rescheduled away from her birthday. The funny thing is, for International Scrapbooking Day, which is the first Saturday in May, we had a Mother's Day celebration for our mom, because that's when we could all get together. So no crafting for me that day, either, though I did get in some shopping at a scrapbooking store where we were. LOL I may need to have a talk with my brother & SIL about what dates we need to work around! 🤣 Seriously, though, I love how your backgrounds & subsequent cards came out! A tip for DIY glitter gel. (And sorry, but dried-out paste/gel is just toast at that point.) If you don't have Pops of Color, you can always substitute water-based ink to color your glitter paste/gel. I have used Distress inks with great success. I assume Oxides & other dye or water-based pigment inks would work as well. I don't know about Versafine inks, as those are oil-based. I have even used metallic inks like the Delicata line. And if you don't have glitter gel, use artist's gloss gel medium (available at art supply stores or even Michael's and Hobby Lobby) & mix in glitter. I wouldn't recommend something like Mod Podge, though, as it's a bit too thin. It's vital to have GEL medium. Add ink if you want to color it, or none if you want it clear. You can actually use up quite a bit of glitter doing this, which I see as a plus. I would not recommend mixing more than you think you need, though, because I don't know if you can store it well. I've never tried anyway. At any rate, those are my tips for the day! Thank you for sharing all your tips, tricks, & cards. Hope y'all are doing well. Take care, & have an awesome day! :)
