    I wish I saw this20 years ago. I’m afraid I’m one of those “want it all” types. I have all the oxides, plus other inks. I’m revisiting my Oxides and I’m really trying to use what I have. Not buying many stamps anymore but I’m buying stencils which I can use in my card making and in art journals. I appreciate the info. on the paint. I’m new to art journals. Looking forward to part 2.

    I completely agree with you. And Dylousions and Dina Wakley are overpriced junk . I've wasted hundreds on their products and felt nothing but frustration. Ranger is such a rip off! Yes I said it!!! No one with a tube channel has the courage to.

    I have not even tried their paints so I can't tell you anything about them...strictly on the price point I don't buy them. Why spend more when I get what I want from my student grade paint.

    Hello Karen. Great info !! I agree with you about the latest and greatest product, my "want monster" certainly does show it's ugly side 🙃 I find the ultra cheapo supplies are more of a waste of money than a middle of the road cost... I ended up throwing out all the cheap paints because they just weren't good enough quality. Having said that, I also don't purchase artist grade products, I'm quite happy with my student grade. Like you said, it doesn't have to survive forever.... Take care and see you soon 🤗

  • @KarenBurchill

    I stick to the middle of the road. And if the product doesnt work the way I need it to...I "donate" it ASAP...no need to store it...and think it will magically improve LOL K

    H, Karen This is great information. In my garden when I try a plant I'm not familiar with I buy 3. I put them in 3 growing conditions, different soil, light, water requirements etc. If all 3 die I don't buy any more. If they do great I buy more, maybe in a different variety or color. If only 1 made it I have to decide whether I even have room for more in that location and do I like the plant well enough. I try to do the same with my art supplies Looking forward to the rest of the series. Nancy

    I liked the black grid in the background of the first design. I like the dotted outlines. I preferred the thinner outlines in white. I don't like the way the sentiment seems slapped on rather than really integrated into the design. (I have a bias for die-cut sentiments for this reason.) I like the second backgound and the pen work. The sentiment is better integrated (if a bit redundant).

  • @KarenBurchill
    @KarenBurchill2 күн бұрын

    They will work in same way...you will have to make a pool of ink color and then paint it on. I find coloring with them they leave an indentation or it's hard to get them all activated. K

    What mix ratio would you recommend (using the silver metallic)?

    @KarenBurchill20 күн бұрын

    The great thing is you can adjust the ratio and get different tones...I'd start with 50/50 and adjust as you wish...or alternatively start with less silver and add till you get desired tone

    If I didn’t see you make these, I don’t know that I would believe these started out as napkins. Incredible coloring and beautiful results. Since I’m basically a card maker, I’m leaning towards the 6x6 project as a favorite, however, I do love your journal pages. After watching one of your videos, I went out and bought the unbleached titanium…and love it. How heavy is the card stock that you are using for the 6x6? Thank you.
