WOOHOO, Laurel! Such a FUN video with the Distress Oxides! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ALL of the cards n’ techniques! Great tips throughout, too! You made me chuckle when some of the designs were “Oopsies”, or so you thought, and they turned out to be TERRIFIC backgrounds! LOVED THAT!! Very happy to see these newer-designed stencils, too! SO COOL! Haven’t played with my Distress Oxides for quite a while nor with my stencils so THANK YOU for sparking my creative juices with this video and your lovely card designs! TFS n’ HAPPY STAMPIN n’ CREATIN’!!! Have a lovely day! Lookin’ forward to more of your SUPER videos n’ talents! :-))
Thank you again for using the "cheap" brushes. They are the same and I appreciate you sharing your ideas and techniques without always touting a brand. You're the best!
Very cool. You are great to listen to ..watch n creative !! First time I found you !! I buy the microfiber clothes from the dollar store and sometimes cut them up I had a big piece. And then I do toss them as I may get 4 pieces?!?! Just a tip get baby wipes there too !! They get too wet but then use the pieces of microfiber to pick up the water !!
I have never noticed before that your sound was very quiet--but today my laptop is turned up all the way, as is the volume of this video, and I can barely hear it--the irony is that the ads showing on my page are for hearing aides!!! Crazy!! I just used the subtitles and it was fine.
Oh Laurel, your the best, you cracked me up when you said "I was never good at color mixing, I didn't do well in kindergarten", lol. Same here concerning colors, plus, I must add I have NO talent in shading either. Thank you for your awesome videos full of many ideas and tips. Your commentary all the way through keeps a smile on my face. I loved these backgrounds and cards you made.
Love your videos Laurel. My favorite card was where you watercolored the flower teapot stamp from hedgehog hollow May kit (my fav so far as well). The oohs and ahhs 😂😍🤗you’re so awesome!!!!
Hi Laurel. Your techniques are awesome but I have to be honest: your commentary has me coming back - you are a hoot! 😉🤣 I love it when you describe something that didn’t quite work out. Some people try to pretend they never have a mishap to give an illusion of perfection. Come on - really? Thanks for this - I have Distress Oxides that I hardly ever use so I’m gonna play with them this weekend. Take care!🌸
Fantastic card designs and ideas! I just ordered what I think are my final :-) Distress Oxide inks--and one was Chipped Sapphire! It is such a beautiful color! I have quite a few now but never bought a set either- I'm way too picky about color too.
Hope your move is going well. Miss you. I get my microfiber cloths from Advance Auto in a pack of 25. They sell shammys too; one cut in 4 is cheap and bigger than a "craft" one.
The oxides are my favorite inks. I love them on my gelli plate. I bought a few of the oxide sprays. I would like to add some more. Your videos are awesome
I bought the WOW dual temp heat gun after watching your review. I LOVE it. I had no idea what I was missing--The heat gun I was using I got from a garage sale and needs to be retired, but I didn't know that until I bought the new one. =)
Love the techniques you shared with your cards. Issue with the volume not being your normal level in the beginning did get a little louder. My volume was maxed out for both TH-cam and laptop.
amazing thank you for showing how to use the oxides in such a brilliant way i have just purchased my first 18 colours and so new to card making you have given me so much information . so glad i joined the hop hop save the you tuber because the things ,am learning just Fantastic Kind regards Janine and glad i have subscribed to your channel
Which card was your favorite? Do you like distress oxides? Find them fun to layer? Let me know in the comments! PS. Some have commented on the volume. On my end it's fine. Some others find it low. Others find it ok... I am stumped. No clue. My apologies. Closed Caption is available on this video!
Hi Laurel 👋 I had my tablet up to the max volume to but unfortunately I could barely hear you ☹️ so I watched in silence and loved the end results all the best Lin in South Wales uk 💞🦋🐕
@@LaurelBeard Hi Laurel 👋 never mind at least I could see what you were doing and I loved the end results 😊👍 all the best to you and all have a lovely weekend 💞🦋🐕 Lin in South Wales uk x
Very cool video. Love all the different techniques. Your cards are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! How did your move go???? Did they do what you asked and unpacked all the boxes for you?
Awesome. Glad everything went as planned. Well at least that anyway. Good luck. Hope to see your new craft room soon. I saw a glimpse with your other video about glue. On camera it looks a lot smaller. Can’t be any smaller than mine. 10’ x 15’ with the weirdest shaped closet that clothes have to hang a bit sideways to fit. Lol. I hope you enjoy your new home. May love, laughter and happiness fill those walls and keep you forever blessed. Looking forward to your next video.
Gorgeous cards. I love the distress oxides, but I also love the distress inks as well, so I am really torn as to which ones I buy. Thanks for the inspiration
Great cards Laurel and as always you make me laugh with your comments.. You're awesome and btw I had no issues hearing you, I just turned up the volume on my iPad and whoala you came in loud and clear !!! 👍😜
I need to tell you that your video is really awesome. It just bothers me because you work so hard to make this video and it is really amazing, but I had a little trouble hearing you. Maybe you could get a stronger microphone I am sure that there are a lot of other people that have this problem too. Other wise the video was really , really good. Thank You.
I turn the faster videos down to 50% and use an external speaker (this one is USB but others are bluetooth). That helps when videos are quieter. After this one in my lineup is J McGuire and the volume nearly knocked me over bwahahaha! So yeah, it's easier to hear using extra speakers for lower volume videos :D
Sorry. Some videos have sound issues and some don't, but I use the same microphone each time. It is strange. I've turned the output volume to 400max now so beware going forward, lol.

Awe, you are so sweet Judith! Thank you.

You bet!!!!! :):)
So cute! Thanks for sharing, loved hearing about your family. Hi from Scottsdale Arizona
Very cool. You are great to listen to ..watch n creative !! First time I found you !! I buy the microfiber clothes from the dollar store and sometimes cut them up I had a big piece. And then I do toss them as I may get 4 pieces?!?! Just a tip get baby wipes there too !! They get too wet but then use the pieces of microfiber to pick up the water !!
I have no problem with the volume. Gorgeous cards. I love all your techniques. Never considered using a wet brush. Great idea. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much! It's so weird some are having volume problems!!!
@@LaurelBeard The music in the intro is loud and fine, but when you start talking then the volume dips really low.
I have never noticed before that your sound was very quiet--but today my laptop is turned up all the way, as is the volume of this video, and I can barely hear it--the irony is that the ads showing on my page are for hearing aides!!! Crazy!! I just used the subtitles and it was fine.
Sorry about that! I have no idea what happened with the sound this time around....

Oh thank you so much! I appreciate you taking the time to leave me this comment!
What a fun video! Love your cards and the techniques! A few of them had me holding my breath, but they came out great!
Thank you for showing me hw color the background. I can’t remember seeing this before.
You’re welcome 😊
Love all the cards but the one in the sprinkling can with the flowers love how that turned out with painting with the oxides. Love your videos. TSF!

Hi Laurel 👋 I had my tablet up to the max volume to but unfortunately I could barely hear you ☹️ so I watched in silence and loved the end results all the best Lin in South Wales uk 💞🦋🐕
This is so weird because I can hear just fine! I don't know what to say....

Beautiful
Very cool video. Love all the different techniques. Your cards are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing!
How did your move go???? Did they do what you asked and unpacked all the boxes for you?
HAHA, Yea, I made them unpack all the stuff and then we just sorted thru it. We are almost done with the house!
Awesome. Glad everything went as planned. Well at least that anyway. Good luck. Hope to see your new craft room soon. I saw a glimpse with your other video about glue. On camera it looks a lot smaller. Can’t be any smaller than mine. 10’ x 15’ with the weirdest shaped closet that clothes have to hang a bit sideways to fit. Lol. I hope you enjoy your new home.

If you had to pick colors as your first oxides palette, which colors would you pick?
Picked Raspberry, Squeezed Lemonade, Peacock Feathers
Great cards Laurel and as always you make me laugh with your comments.. You're awesome and btw I had no issues hearing you, I just turned up the volume on my iPad and whoala you came in loud and clear !!! 👍😜
Oooh, Aaahh. :) Hugs!
wish I could turn up the volume
I don’t have a glass top so is there something else I can use?
plastic plate, plastic packaging.... Anything easy to clean.
My volume was fine as well. People just don’t understand that sometimes the issue is with their own equipment 🙄
I need to tell you that your video is really awesome. It just bothers me because you work so hard to make this video and it is really amazing, but I had a little trouble hearing you.

Sorry. Some videos have sound issues and some don't, but I use the same microphone each time. It is strange. I've turned the output volume to 400max now so beware going forward, lol.
Volume is very low
Kool🙂
The volume on this video is very low. I have my YT volume AND my computer volume at max and can barely hear you. But love the cards :)
Hmm. I am so sorry. It is blasting out my computer.... So strange.
Oooooo aaaah😄
Turn up the volume darling, I can’t hear you. Thank you
