UPDATE:
Hi everyone! I know I’ve been MIA since December, I just wanted to let you know I’ve been having some major health issues for the past couple of months and I’ve been in the hospital more than I haven’t so I’m not ignoring your questions on purpose, I promise. As soon as I am able, I will respond to you all. I’m just not quite sure when... I ask that you please be patient with me, I will be back as soon as my body allows me to be and the first thing I will do is reply to your questions and comments. Thank you all so much for your support, it means so much to me. Talk soon~

Hi there!! First of all, thanks so much for checking out my channel. What you'll mostly find here is card making videos/tutorials and an occasional haul video. I design for Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge so I post a new video every Wednesday. For more information including details on all of my cards and products used, please visit www.happyinkdesigns.wordpress.com

    Absolutely beautiful card! Copics usually leak when over filled, which could also be from the manufacturer. Altitude can also cause leakage. I would recommend just taking both caps off before coloring, especially with ones you don’t use often. Once the ink levels decrease you may not need to do that anymore.

    I’m glad you are back! Prayers for feeling better continually! Could you stamp a background stamp (or a border stamp moved around) with the sticky ink to “emboss” the foil on alcohol background? I’d watch you color and make decisions. I’m not very well practiced. I’d like to practice with you! Maybe set it up before hand so we could get similar colors/images. This was a great card! Thanks for sharing!!

    I didn't even think about that but I would have loved to try. I have a marble background stamp that would've been perfect! That sounds fun to color together. I'd love to have time to continue the Kit and Clowder coloring classes that I was taking and then I could share what I learn.

    First, thank you so much for this great tutorial! The clipping app is a game changer. I discovered that if you capitalize your search words when you type them in the search bar, you won't have to correct them later because. let's be honest: only a serial killer would leave the titles in lower case. : )

    @MistyElam2 жыл бұрын

    I really wish I would have seen this comment sooner because I literally JUST figured that out about capitalizing my search words... I apologize I didn't respond sooner. I've been dealing with some not so great health issues. LOL, couldn't agree more about leaving it lower case.

    Misty, I lovelovelove this card had to set aside ample time to watch the video undisturbed. I also have kitties and seeing Trigger was a bonus. I lost 2 kitties in 2019 and 1 in 2020. Like you, I find comfort with the ones who still cuddle with me. Back to the card... this is absolutely stunning and cute at the same time. Your imagination and skills are an inspiration. I've seen Evernote but I was already invested in Excel. IDK, it may be time to take the plunge and make that change before I go any deeper. Thanks for sharing!

  • @MistyElam
    @MistyElam2 жыл бұрын

    I know it's been a couple of months since you posted this, but I had some health issues that were holding me back so I apologize it's taking me so long to respond. Anyway, I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your precious kitties. Do you have any now? I have FIVE now. I just love them so much!! My most recent adoption was a beautiful blind girl and the teeny tiny orange tabby that she had bonded too. They both came from an animal hoarding situation. It's a zoo here but I wouldn't want it any other way. Thank you so much for your sweet words and of course for watching my video. I really appreciate it. And if you already have a good system going with Excel, I would just stick with that, if I were you. That would be a lot of work!! Evernote is great for someone that doesn't have a system yet. But if you do decide to switch, I'll be here to help answer any questions if I can.

    Instead of tagging the words, I type the words and shapes in the body of the note. Then use the search function to find all the occurrences of that word or shape within my stamp & die folder. I use Evernote for every aspect of my life and prefer tags to be broader so as not to have an overwhelming number of tags (although it is already a very big list!) Also, I’ve created a template for stamps and dies with all of the information I’m tracking (company, stamp number, storage location, words, shapes, etc.) Thanks for the video!
