Your Creative Studio Unboxing & Craft Along With Me - Fabulous Ephemera For Our Journals 

LOVE THESE ITEMS I ALSO LOVE YOUR CREATIVE STUDIO BOXES!!!!! thanks for sharing

I enjoy watching you making beautiful things with bits of paper. You really have an eye for this type of thing. I think this box was especially nice - especially the tickets and vellum pieces. As far as the stamps, I think the 1st piece of acetate is to protect the 2nd piece of acetate so it will not become dirty or oily from your hands so it will adhere to the stamp block. (The piece of acetate closest to the stamp should be permanent and you use it to attach to the stamping block, then you can ink the stamp and press it on the paper with the stamp attached.) Hope that makes sense. Gorgeous images on those stamps! Thanks for another great video! Janet 💕

As usual Nina, I love watching you create all these mini works of art! You also make me smile when you talk about getting the backing pieces off of the stickers. Years ago I worked on a craft show on HGTV here in the US. One of my most important jobs was to be sure all the backing from tape, stickers, etc was “started” so that all the host of the show had to do was peel the backing off seamlessly. It might seem silly, but it was a big deal, for sure! You took me right back to those days in this video. TFS

Beautiful use of the bits and pieces! I love your creativity Nina!

I never want to use anything from the box until I’ve seen what you’ve done. Love them all!

A very nice box from YCS. I like everything .Thx Nina Have a great day

Hello Nina, Beautiful contents in this box. Your embellishments are beautiful. The one with the bunny is my favorite.

Hello nina, beautiful papers in this box... Oh , like you we are going to have some snow , not really looking forward to that after the nice weather we had lately. So my wintercoat will still be around.brrr. love and hugs lena xxx

These are all beautiful! This was a great box! Gorgeous! Cheers from 🇨🇦Calgary, Alberta🇨🇦 It was +18 here today, tomorrow will be +12 and rainy..

What gorgeous items 😍 I'm a bit confused. I recently signed up and received my first box a few days ago and it wasn't this one. A bit disappointed because I favor this one over the one I received. I adore your creations, by the way, Nina. You make me laugh often 😆 because we are so much alike - taking extra time and paying attention to details. You're a joy and I love your channel. I have binge watched your videos since finding you a week ago. ☺ Have a blessed day! 💜 Sandy

Hello Nina,Just watched your latest “your creative Studio “ video. Love it,as usual it’s full of unique ideas. Your problem with the stamps,( they are truly lovely and versatile), I noticed the same thing, the top layer does not stick, but I do not think, that there is another layer to peel off. I put a temporary adhesive on top, so it sticks to the stamp block. There is a product fron Tsukineko, called TACK’N PEEL. It is a 1 mm thick transparent plastic sheet, that you put with the permanent gluey side to your stamp-block. The other side is covered with a transparent plastic, which you remove to put your stamp, and put back afterwards. It does not stay transparent for ever, ( I am not a super tidy stamper),but I have it on a bigger and a smaller acrylic block for at least 8 to 10 years, and I can still see through. The sheet is 16,5x10 cm. I am by the way still waiting for my first copy of Daphne’s diary, Switzerland seems difficult to find! After several exchanges with distributers in Germany and publishers in the Nederland’s, I keep hoping.( they promised).Hope you are well! We had the same weather, and the same forecast! And my tulips do NOT like snow! Let’s hope for the best! Take care. Barbara

Really like what you have done with the Your Creative Studio Contents. Very creative!! Gave me some inspiration.

So glad you are doing these videos with this subscription box. You help me out a lot to! LOL

I really enjoy receiving these kits, and your videos provide so much inspiration. I have had the exact same issues with the stamps. In fact, I haven’t had one of these stamps I haven’t had issues with. I generally use removable tape on the back of my stamp block. It can be a pain to clean, but it works great. The stickers are an issue, but in another video I saw, if you place the piece flat on the table and use tweezers, the backing does seem to come off easier. I like your way best though. Thanks for another great video, Nina.

Nina, do watch Gi's video. It works a treat. As to the YCS stamps, there are two backings. A while back I attempted to remove the second backing closest to the stamp only to have it get completely stuck to my acrylic block. Eventually, I managed to free it, so it is supposed to be on the stamp. The problem is it just isn't sticky enough to cling to the block like it's meant to. Just now, after taking another look at my YCS stamps and seeing the glue was still as gooey as when it arrived last November, I decided to remove the foam and glue from the stamp itself. They cling to the block perfectly and come away easily. They also leave a better impression on the paper. It might be worth trying for those that are having the same problem. Veronica x

Nina you received very lovely gifts in your kit. I have a hint how to get the sticker backs off very easily. Take a long strong straight pin or a stainless steel pin like the one used in your glues. Hold your fingers close to the edge putting your pin in between the sticker & cover on back. Whala so easy...

Nina, one more hint. The stamps you received in your kit, the vinyl covers on the stamps are needed to cover the sticky part which sticks to your acrylic blocks. Get them out of the trash to put them back on your stamps.

It wasn't just you, I had the same issue and thought I was just doing something wrong. Love the way you used the items...I would never thought of it, but now I have to try it!

Wonderful ideas on how to use the YCS items! I just started to buy these boxes and loved how you used the content. Thank you for sharing!

What a gorgeous kit. I love watching unboxing videos and get excited as if it was mine!!! You use items beautifully and as always, you've a great eye for detail and colour. Thank you Nina. Have a lovely day. I can't wait for your next video. xx

Thank you.so much. I love to see how u use the box. These are beautiful. Look forward to next video. Thanks

One of my favs. Love tickets and the colors.

Such a lovely kit, I purchased the previous two now I wish I had kept going. Nina have a look at Gi Kerr's tip on how to get the backings off stickers, she has just posted it. The RU-vid header is: Quick Tip: How I Get the Back off My Stickers , might be helpful to you and many others. It has helped me. Thank you for your lovely ideas.

Lovely goodies in that box and 💕 what you have done with them.Just playing catch up now back home…again.Internet useless at moms 🙈x

Love what you did! Thanks for the inspiration!!

Lovely kit! Thx for sharing.

It looks like you had so much fun! They are all wonderful ❤️

I have the same issues with the stamps and treat it the same way. All beautiful and anxiously await part 2.

How gorgeous, Nina. These are beautiful and you've done a great job in putting the items together. Love what you've done!!

Love your crafting and ideas Nina 🌹

When you picked up the block the stamp adhered to it. The second layer you leave on as it sticks to the blocks, I believe

You are brilliant, Nina! I would never have thought of just gluing the whole sticker down without removing the backing. I have to say that while I was getting the YCS boxes those stickers were a major aggravation! Now they won’t be, so thanks. They really are beautiful,though. Your projects turned out just lovely.

I could have watched this forever, watching you create with so many beautiful options!

Gorgeous!

Thank you so much Nina, I really really enjoyed watching you open the My Creative Studio box, absolutely stunning and gorgeous box filled with beautiful thing’s. And I really really love ❤️ what you created with some of the ephemera from it. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

Love the ephemera you created. I think the second layer of the stamp stays on and the stamp will stick to your acrylic block. Can’t wait to see what you do with your pieces

7 Lovely works of art❣️❤️❣️❣️

Wonderfulideas...so pretty! I always have trouble removing sticker backs, lol, as well as the stamping liner...actually almost ruined a stamp because I almost tore the back.

Fabulous creations . I love what you do with these kits Nina . Thank you so much for sharung . Kay xx

I love what you did with the box contents and thoroughly enjoyed watching you create the various pieces. I love all of them! I have this box and enjoyed checking everything out but that’s as far as I got. I’m currently using a pocket Moleskin notebook so most of these collage items are too big for that… although I have been wanting to start a larger size collage journal… not ready to make my own yet but I enjoy watching you use your created beauties. Thanks for sharing your creativity piecing the various elements together into wonderful collages that will be beautiful in your journal. I pulled my 3 YCS boxes out to simulate your idea of creating pieces to work with later. I am so happy about this. Too often I want to have the end in mind at the beginning and it messed me up. Have a great day! I’ll look forward to part 2! 🙂

I love what you've done with the kit! So beautiful!

The second acetate layer is the one with the image on it - lets you know how to position and orientate the image. I notice a lot of people treat these stamps as if they are silicon stamps, expecting them to go on and off acrylic blocks, but the acrylic blocks work with the silicon stamps because the stamps are thin - like the red rubber part of rubber stamps, and the silicon stamps don't have glue on them, it is the silicon itself on the smooth side that suctions onto the smooth surface of the acrylic, the acrylic block being a temporary removable replacement for the permanent wooden block on rubber stamps.These are better treated as wooden block stamps, with the thick grey sponge bit a replacement for wooden blocks, the stamped image on the back just like the stamped image on the wooden block. Of course, that doesn't mean it is an effective replacement - lol. I too still use a thin quilting template to press down on it.

Well, I don’t feel so bad now, I had the same question about the stamps! I thought they would stick to a block after removing the acetate but, no, they don’t and I cannot get anything else off either. You made a beautiful batch of projects, as always you pull some great ideas out of your hat!💕🇨🇦

Beautiful kit and you used them very nicely. Thanks for sharing. TTFN

I love using the packaging too! It’s just too pretty to throw away. Love your creative eye. Beautiful pieces 💕

Great share 👍

Nope, You are correct, there are rwo pieces of acetate on the stamps and the second one is literally gllued to the gray cushion, I was able to get it off with my awl but I fear that the stamp willl be permanently glued to my acrylic block. This is my only gripe with the YCS boxes , that the gray cushion is too soft and the "glue" is not removeable as it should be. The red rubber images are excellent, its just the gray cushion that's bad. Otherwise the boxes are full of delightfully beautiful treasures! And I love what you have made with them!

Beautiful pieces of ephemra! Love how you put the items together. I really admire how you use all the labels which I find very hard to use. Thanks for the inspiration!

Absolutely beautiful, I so enjoy your videos Nina. I've had a couple of the kits. I now feel a bit mixed up with which month is current due to the postal delays. I've decided to let a few months go by and to resist adding to my huge ephemera supplies. Thank you for your inspiration.

I just love these kits. Everything is always wonderful that you get. I love your ideas that you have shown using the items you got in the box. Thank you. :)

There all so lovely 🥰💜🧚‍♀️

I just love your designs and uses of these kits….you are such an inspiration

Thanks for sharing your very creative ideas! Love your style!

Great stuff 😊

I discovered the easiest way to remove stickers from their backing. Place a piece of cellophane tape on top of the sticker with a little overlap. (It doesn't have to cover the sticker ) Pull on the free portion of the tape and they will separate. If there is a problem, burnish the tape slightly.

Loving all the pieces you made today. I think this is one of my favourite kits xx

This box was just loaded with goodies! Love the projects. ❤

Loved this one! You’re so fun to watch and listen to.

I love what you’ve created today. Looking forward to your next steps!

Beautiful kit and you made some wonderful ephemera with pieces of it. I have stamps that I got on discount because the backing does not come off, I use double sided temporary tape to hold them to stamp block or platform. Looking forward to seeing which you use in your journal. Thanks Nina, wishing you a short cold spell.😁

I have this box too and now I have some new cute ideas to do with all that beautiful stuff. I look forward to your videos. You are such great inspiration for me! Thank you☺️

I was thrilled when you used the bunny ticket because that was my favorite thing from the box. :D

Here for card ideas!😉

Gorgeous, Nina. Lovely pieces of ephemera to work with, too. You've probably tried this with the stickers but I find a corner and with my fingernail keep flipping back and to and it often comes off easily. Not all attempts are successful but I would say a good 95%. Worth a go to potentially save your sanity. Thanks for sharing.

I am so excited! I am going to have a play today and use some of your ideas! I love the bunny piece. I thought you were done, but when you added the fern on the left I was thrilled. I am horrified to admit this, but I tore the foam off one of the small stamps trying to get the too layer of plastic off. 😭😭😭😭. I am able to use it, but have to stamp, cut around it, and glue because finger ink is a problem. I am just glad I can make it work because it is so sweet! Looking forward to Sunday! TFS. 💐🙏💌

Just wondered - will you be doing anymore of the Creative Studio unboxing and ideas? - Love all your videos!

I received this box a couple weeks ago and was eagerly waiting for this video. Loved your ideas. I had trouble with the stamps, too. The acetate just fell off of them and then they wouldn't stick to the block. I put some repositionable tape on the backs and they worked fine.

I love seeing these videos. I was wondering about the stamps as well. Some of them are so dark grey I can’t see the design clearly. I thought the acetate would come off but it seems to be welded to the stamp! I’m just getting into stamping and never saw these kind before :)

After the first layer of plastic is removed from the stamp, it sticks to my acrylic block but not super well. However, it doesn’t fall off as you are stamping, at least, that’s how mine works. It’s not the best arrangement, I agree. I don’t do anything to prime the back

I love your videos. This one's great! Love what you created, and I think this is the best Creative Studio box I've seen. (I think the first, removable clear acetate cover on the stamps is just to protect the label during shipping. The second sheet, with the image of the stamp on it, is supposed to be a permanent label, I believe.)

I had the same question about the acetate on the back of the stamp. I don't think it is meant to come off but given that so many of the other features of the box have those dang acetate peel offs I don't think we can blame ourselves for being mistaken.

Always enjoy your creativity with the contents of this kits. I was wondering if you could share where you got the rubber stamp you used, been looking for awhile for a similar set.😘😘😘

It’s all lovely! I’ve just had my first box and I’m wondering…do they make their own items? I couldn’t find any info about that.

Nina I am not sure if it works but there was a comment at another tubers site that lip balm works maybe worth a try

The website is confusing. Which month do I order to get this kit? Thank you.

What month do I order to get this kit? Thank you

What month was this?

I'm loving the cards you made and how they went together so quickly. That's my kind of crafting! This month's kit is gorgeous. You might be interested in Gi's video on removing the backs from stickers.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-73epHLgmlNI.html
