Glassmat looks great, but 8 years ago i bought a large piece of glass that coincidently fit my desk, bought it for 5 dollar, yeah, and made a 12inch paper grid with measurenrs underneath it, still LOVE IT, bought the large brush too, love them!!
Hi Simon, I am really impressed with how you demonstrated the white glass mat and the magnets. I prefer the white to the black for the same reasons as you. Gotta day your cards are inspirational, love all the techniques and thankyou for the links. New follower. 😊
Question: Have you (& Ranger) ever thought about having mini cubes of your ink? I’m curious to see if anyone else thinks that’s a great idea too. Thanks for all you do Simon!
Absolutely stunning bird/flower card. The vibrant colors are just beautiful!! As always, Simon...well done and many thanks for all your tips and education!!!
I love your enthusiasm. My favorite card was the last one with the 3D embossing folder and stencils. After watching your videos, I always want the tools you use. I appreciate all the tricks and tips along the way, too. Thank you!
OMG....the bird/flower card was outstanding in color and dimensions. As a pretty much beginner, I learned a lot watching this video. Thanks so very much!!
Simon, I am new to your channel. You have really impressed me with your products & your skills. Your are so young too! Kudos to you for your creativity & enthusiasm! The card you created using the Altenew embossing folder & stencils is simply stunning! Your Lunar paste took it to another level. I am sold! I also have a glass mat that I love! So easy to clean up after creating. Thank you for a wonderful video. You have a new RU-vid follower!
Really like the embossing folder/stencil set from Altenew & their blending brushes. AND thinking I am really loving that Lunar Paste and how much more versatile it is than I realized! Thank you, Simon!
Big fan here of tool testing. Next best thing to an in person demo. Both cards are grand, but... the last one with the vibrant green ink is my fav. Love the way you blend, blend, blend!
Love your reviews, Simon! You are always fair and balanced!! Your demonstrations are always clear and concise -- I really love the embossing folder and stencil combo -- and I would never have thought of using the Lunar Paste in combination with the inks, but it REALLY adds to the card. I see a great future for you!!
GORGEOUS! Can't wait to get some lunar paste!!! Those deep embossing folders and stencils are stunning too! Thank you so much Simon, your creativity is out of the park!
That card using the embossing and stencil is stunning and I love the mat be nice to wipe your messes easy without messing your craft mat that is on my.list tyfs 🦋💜
I love the cards hard to choose a favorite but I think the bird and how easy it was to showcase those beautiful colors. I have a glass Matt in smaller version but watching you work with the larger one seems to give you plenary if room to work with different techniques and sizes without risk of contaminating colors. The cards are gorgeous! I do like the magnets for certain mixed. media or adding tiny embellishments for finishing touch. I love the detail coverage you got with the large and medium size blending brushes. I’ve had 4 mini strikes and struggle with having steady hands at times and holding on to my tools these brushes will make it much easier to hold. I always learn something from you Simon and think you are one of the most talented designers in the industry and your products are amazing ❤❤❤
OH MY GOODNESS!!! Simon, I love your channel! You have such great ideas and I love your teaching style. Watching your videos have inspired me to get back to cardmaking. Thanks so much!
Simon, you’re killing me! Everything you did was awesome but that last card blew me away! SO amazing! Thanks for all your tips and great information as you make your creations.😊❤️🐾🌵
I have this glass mat and its awesome. Here is a tip, I have the waffle flower stencil mat. I put on top of glass mat and the magnets hold on top of the stencil mat. So no tape needed. Card stock stays in place and I put one or two magnets on the corners of the stencil. Works great
I love the stencils that build a design I’ve not seen those before but they’re pretty neat. OMG I love that bird and flower stencil and colouring. I’m totally in love with lunar paste. I must buy me some
Thank you for showing all of these new tools and techniques. I love all the cards you created. I enjoy watching your videos as they are so informative.
Simon you have become my favorite! I watch your videos all the time and all your cards are amazing. I loved this video. My fave card was the jungle one. I have all the items saved to my wish list!! Thank you. ❤
I have a glass board glass mat and I LOVE it! This combo of stencil and embossing folder is phenomenal. Thanks for the tips to use the blending brush. I have 1 in the box but I may need more now that I know how to use it. You are VERY talented!
Beautiful cards Simon! Loved the embossing and stencil set and the vibrant colors of that card. The blending brushes are getting added to my wishlist! Thanks for an informative/inspirational video.
Hi The bird card was definitely my favorite. I learned how to emboss and what it meant. Thank you for the lesson. Also, I wandered why people used glasses mats. Now I know. Thanks again! Denise/Houston
Bought my Glass Board craft mat last year and have LOVED it ever since. So easy to clean up, love the magnetic backing and enjoy having a good work surface. The cards you make are amazing. I love learning new ideas from you. You explain it so well and make it look so easy to do. Will you be coming out with cube ink pads in the future?
I live the glas mat. I will be getting one soon. think a sticky mat that attaches to a magnetic back placed on the glass mat might make it more hands-free. I thought about trying Altenew Blending brush so it was nice to see them in action. Love all the cards and backgrounds but the last was my favorite. 😊
Love the card with the embossing folder and matching stencil. It's really lovely. I know the magnetic glass boards are all the rage now but I have both of Tim's (regular and travel) and they work wonderfully for me. There's a white section on the side so I doubt I'll be reinvesting in a new one. Besides I waited to find both at exceptional prices. I find I'm too heavy handed for magnets to do the job for me alone anyway so I guess I'm not really missing out. Thanks for providing your opinion on the new tools.
Simon… the Altenew bird card is amazing! Your choices for colors and mediums made it phenomenal! Thanks for sharing your creativity and inspiration. Have a great day! 🙂
Hi, Simon. Thanks again for another in-depth review of products. You did a lot of ink blending with Altenew's big brushes in this video. As far as hand fatigue, how do they compare to the blender brushes with handles? My favorite card was the last one as I just love Lunar Paste and I'd say you used to to great effect with the embossing folder/stencil combo. Looking forward to adding more LP colors to my collection!
The glass board mat is my most favorite tool. So easy to clean too (Hand sanitizer). I have different brand of the ergonomic blending blushes & smaller, they are great for people with hand issues. Love the Lunar Paste on black card stock you did & the clean up one.
OMG you colored the stencil fabulously !! You are such an amazing artist, and so inspirational, thx so much, and the lunar past certainly give that extra umpf, i should really use them more, but you give good ideas 4 that👍
The glass board mat is definitely on my wish list! I loved that you gave honest feedback regarding the magnets and stencils. I loved the lunar paste on the black card stock! So very striking. Also…I wish I had watched this before I placed my rather large Altenew order because I would have definitely ordered some brushes and that embossing/ stencil combo. Thank you for sharing your talent! You’re a delight! 😊
i love butterflies so that was my favorite card. i would like to have one of the glass mats but more than that i want to start getting your lunar paste. they are so beautiful and i dont think i could pick just one or two of your paste and thank for demonstrating all of the techniques and products you make them look so easy to use. thank you so much.
