I am a big Half Ass Crafter fan so I was watching her channel this morning where she showed her prize winnings from you. She spoke so highly of your channel I had to come check you out. Great channel! *New Subscriber*
Hi, great techniques and video. very interesting and enjoyable. Could I ask where and who does the old fashioned cutouts you used of the children? I'm looking for something like this. xx
Hi! Thanks so much! I often use vintage photos I find at antique and thrift stores, but I also use mass-produced pieces that are already on heavy cardstock. This particular image is part of the Tim Holtz Idea-ology "paper dolls" line. This particular image was from the "Groups" set. If you wish, you can get them through my amazon affiliate link: amzn.to/3WvJSdi These sets are also available at Michael's and Joann's stores.
@@teentsyvintage Hi thanks for getting back to me. I live in the UK and I think I've finally found them. I've been looking for ages, but ill use what you've kindly told me and make sure they are the right ones. Thanks for the great video you given me some really good ideas, thanks x
Your channel was a random find. This process is exactly what I was looking for. Stupidly, I tossed all of my late husband's radiology books from Med School. I am kicking myself now. But I didn't know than how much value they held. Thank you for this tutorial.
"Sometimes my brain & my hand don't talk to each other" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I definitely know that feeling, closely followed by my brain and my mouth not talking to each other! What a great page! Love the sentiment! No attendants for me, too much family drama so I eloped! Thank you for another great video!
This was great! I know that feeling of making something ad then being all “not sure I love this..or maybe not even like it”. Sometimes I make backgrounds that want a different focal point and then I am all “welp it’s a two background night I guess!” 😂 way to push through! Your quote was perfectly hilarious! 💜
Great layout and such an easy way to make a stunning background! Don't you just love vintage photos?! I always wonder what happened to the people in them! Thank you for another super video!
"“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” T. Roosevelt
What a fun layout! You never cease to amaze me when you start adding the gesso. I think it looks great beforehand and then you add it and it gets a whole different look! Hope you are feeling less overwhelmed! Take care! 💜
Wow what a great idea. I’m dating myself but I remember using these sewing patterns in my freshman year of high school. Yikes 😳 I’m going to try to find some on eBay or wherever and do this fun page. Thanks for sharing this I love it. ❤️❤️💕💕🌺
