Greetings from a new crafter in Sweden. love your craftroom. I am housing my craftarea in my bedroom right now, dreaming of having a room dedicated to it... one day :)
I got those pockets from Simon Says Stamp. Simon Says Stamp brand 7.25 x 9.25 inch storage envelope. You may be able to find a cheaper option on amazon or temu
Whoa - what pretty paper, pretty flowers, pretty hummer, and all over pretty card! Thank you so much for the shout out and sharing your CR Episode 204's project! KYB 🧡💜🧡💜
On washing the blending brushes, the only time you need to wash them is if you want to switch back and forth dye ink to pigment ink. Or if you are changing colors families or the brush is so saturated that rubbing in on a micro fiber or paper towel doesn’t get it off enough to stop color from continuing to come off. I keep a set for pigment, a set for dye and I only wash when I’ve used a dark color, need to go to light and rubbing on a cloth isn’t enough.
Be careful cleaning your stamps with alcohol, not a good idea because it dries them out really bad over time. You really are better to either buy a commercial stamp cleaner or make your own, there are plenty of recipes online. Just make sure you add some glycerin to keep the stamps soft.
Those succulents are really cute! Just a note - when you held it up to the light for us to see, you didn't move the camera so we didn't actually see anything 😂. I know you're fairly new to this, I'm just adding constructive criticism- I promise I'm not bagging on you! I've been at this for 15 years and I still haven't tried the rolled flowers but I am totally into succulent right now so I might have to give in and do some. Thanks for the inspiration lol!
The commenter turned off on your earlier videos so I figured you'd see it here... On your transfer tape hack video- If you turn your design over after you apply the transfer tape, scrape from the back. When you scrape the front you are literally scraping the vinyl back onto the backing. When you flip it over and scrape on the back, you're pushing it forward into the transfer tape if that makes any sense. Also, that little license plate is adorable! Things don't have to be perfect, they're made with love and that's all that matters. If you want the paint a little smoother, you could always sand between coats but I think looked just fine. 😉
