Just simply lovely! So happy you enjoyed your retreat! It’s always fun to learn something that’s out of your box of tricks! You e got us excited to see what else you will do! 💕🙋♀️🇺🇸
Your retreat sounded marvellous; it's always a joy to learn new techniques and meet people IRL. Your MM adapted perfectly to a smaller format and what a clever idea to use just part of the large bee. TFS
oh my gosh Chris that frame is very wonderful. I love the metallic gold and blue and then to stamp over. So Chris and so beautiful. Thank you for sharing again
Oh this is fab! Love going out of comfort zone, as you did at weekend, it's amazing how you can transfer skills from one craft to another. You did a great job of doing that. ❤
Fabulous idea and result with the frame. Quite fancy making a larger one using the technique, and the colours are just so lovely. Glad you had a great time 😊x
Hi. It sounds like you had a great time at the retreat and I'm so glad. That frame is just gorgeous and the bee turned out surprisingly cute for a large bee that looked positively menacing cut from black card at the beginning. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience. Have a wonderful week! 😃
Hi Christine, what wonderful techniques these are. I’m so glad you enjoyed your retreat, but sorry I’m late watching your video. It’s been one of those days and I’m catching up with videos I have missed so far today. Yours was top of the list, of course. Thank you for showing us different ways of doing things. Crafty Hugs - Dawn 🌅
I mostly do mixmedia and few carts, but I love watching your videos, they inspire me so much and I also aprend a lot of thecniques that I did not know or that I did not measure much. Your creations are so beautiful and the mixmedia techniques will enrich them again I’m sure. Yet another beautiful cart creation 😊💛🧡💛 Have a good week.
Another great video Chris. I love the technique you used for the frame, so much so that I’ve ordered the same two acrylic paints from Indigoblu and got the 20% discount, so thanks for that xx
I’m a bit envious of your craft retreat but grateful you are sharing it with us. I absolutely love this card and it’s another reason I check my you tube for you every day. I’m going to the Indigo Blu site today to do some shopping. I do wish someone in the U.S. would carry the Gummiapan dies, I find their site a bit confusing for this “very mature” lady and I haven’t mastered being able to order anything as of yet. I’m not giving up though! Thankful that you share your talents with all of us!
Lovely job. You can turn white has so black with acrylic paint and mix it well. I love how the chicken wire die used as a stencil looks like honeycomb. I don't have any metallic acrylic paint- yet. But, I'm going to use versa mark and perfect pearls and see what hapoens
Lucky you! Going on a craft retreat sounds like the perfect getaway. It's wonderful to spend time with others who love to craft. This was a great technique and the finished card was lovely! 💕
Glad you enjoyed the event and are sharing what you learned, it is immensely appreciated. The frame turned out beautifully, it looks as if some of the areas are raised like three dimensional because of the leaves. I always enjoy what you are creating and purchased some items you used but now can’t remember what you did. Just another sign of aging ☹️. Peggy in Maryland
So glad you had so much fun at your retreat Chrissie! It sounded like lots of fun. I don't think you have to be a mixed media expert, just do what makes your eyes happy and have fun using all kind of medium. That to me is the key of mix media. Or at least that is what I'm learning from you. I LOVED everything you did in this video. I never thought about using metallic paints on the paper like that, but I sure did love the results you got! Those powders should be called magic powders because they do magical things on white and black papers. LOL Love, love, love how your card came out. So fun, so pretty and CAS. Hugs, Brenda
Another fabulous card. The frame is really interesting and gives a lovely effect. It’s great to see you’ve been able to take something from your mixed media weekend and use it in a CAS way. Looking forward to seeing more❤❤❤
Looks like a wonderful retreat! I love this bee card not that I’m surprised. I love every card you make and I’m learning so many techniques from you. Thank you again for your many talents❣️🇺🇸
Bonjour ! L encadrement du bourdon est splendide . Je n ai pas tous vos produits mais j essaierai avec de la peinture métallique si ça peut rendre un effet certe moins beau mais acceptable ! Merci bonne fin de journée
Its beautiful. Love that frame ❤. The metallic paint is gorgeous. By the way, when you use your heat tool, the bee looks like a spider, and I'm terrified of spiders, and it was moving 😅
Very pleased your Indigo Blu retreat was so enjoyable & you clearly listened during class! A lovely card and the frame decoration technique is inspired. One would have thought the metallics were what was stamped, which would have been really fiddly and we all love an effect which looks a lot more complicated than it really is - we must preserve our mystique! Thank you as always :)
Thanks Christine for another card video full of inspiration. I love your bee card and that frame is stunning. I am glad you had a wonderful retreat and learned some new techniques to teach us. Have an awesome day!
So many exquisite details in each tiny piece... {lightbulb 💡 turns on in my small brain, so thank you!} An instructor once told me, and I have read, that if you use two mediums together, you are doing mixed media. So ink and watercolor - or paint or paste, and so on. So in my view, you are an extremely accomplished mixed media card maker. So there.
I don't do Facebook but fortunately it allowed me to lurk. Love, love your project and what a surprise to see the gold gilt (metallic paint?). NOT. Your gilding flakes look fab on it. This card is fantastic, especially the frame. I'm trying to resist the IndigoBlu products. I just placed an order at Gummiapan last week for some of their new release items and, of course, I already have buyer's remorse that I left some great dies behind. So wonderful to hear your voice again this Monday morning.
@@dianewray1867 You made me giggle but I think I have to agree. I don't know if you saw their live release but at the end, they gave a specific shoutout to her and her TH-cam channel. Really fantastic.
I have tried ordering from Indigoblu but it doesn't work with the banks. Will try again soon since I have my eyes on some lovely stamps. Loved that frame! 😇💖🙏🙌
Thoroughly enjoying your videos, creations and chat. You've inspired me to buy some pigment powders, gilding flakes and wax 😊 Can you tell me what you use to burnish the flakes please, thank you.
Christine, do you clean off the glue spray from your stencils after using them? If so, how. If not, how do you store them? I love the video and technique. Thank you.

Thanks so very much ❤️❤️
I’m both fascinated with and intimidated by multi-media, so this video has shown me a way to start experimenting on a small scale. Thanks!!!
Wonderful!❤️😊 thanks
I'm loving this. As I have that bee and it's scary. It's huge. X
BUZZZZZZZZZZZ. :)
It is a biggie!
It looks from your photos that you had a lovely time at the retreat!! Warm regards from 🇨🇦Calgary, Alberta🇨🇦
I did! It was such good fun, with a terrific bunch of people! ❤️😊❤️
You’re famous! Missed you, hope you had a great play.
It was great fun, thanks so much!

Thanks. With the Gummiapan site, are you using the translate to English button? It should make it a whole lot easier!
Would also be fun to emboss the small background with the chicken wire die before coloring it. Now my creative juices are flowing. Thanks
Lots of possibilities! ❤️
So glad you are combining cas with mixed media my 2 most favourite 😊
That’s great! ❤️❤️❤️

You were missed! Fabulous work Chrissie and also so good of you to list the 'ingredients'. Welcome home to Hampshire. xx
Thank you my friend!❤️
A very pretty frame for you bee Christine. So happy to hear your enjoying yourself even if it was outside your comfort zone
Yes, thank you❤️

Thank you so much!😊
Very nice, I crashed into mixed media about two years ago & love it
I can manage in small areas ! 😊😊😊
The frame really is gorgeous and the Merlin blue is stunning. A tiny dab would have looked nice on the bee’s wings.
That’s a good thought! 😊
Looks like a wonderful retreat! I love this bee card not that I’m surprised. I love every card you make and I’m learning so many techniques from you. Thank you again for your many talents❣️🇺🇸

They won’t hurt you…At least the ones in this country won’t and the paper ones are really tame!🤣🤣🤣

It’s lovely being able to use the ideas you have picked up on your craft retreat, love the end result of the frame. Superb card, thank you. Take care.
Thanks so much 😊
Love everything about this bee card.. so many ideas to take away from this tutorial , thank you ! ☺️
You are so welcome!😊
Elegant design and clever ideas, Christine. That frame is "quite nice" as you say! 😊
Thanks so much! 😊

Chrissie ought to be made a shareholder in Gummiapan! It's a bit like playing with dollies houses - as grownups.

I have tried ordering from Indigoblu but it doesn't work with the banks. Will try again soon since I have my eyes on some lovely stamps. Loved that frame! 😇💖🙏🙌
I hope you can sort out your ordering problems! 😊
Yes, me too! 😇
Thoroughly enjoying your videos, creations and chat. You've inspired me to buy some pigment powders, gilding flakes and wax 😊 Can you tell me what you use to burnish the flakes please, thank you.
I use a pad called a scoochie available from Indigo Blu!
Thank you. Love Indigo Blu but haven't found their products here in France 🙄
Fabulous take on some new mixed media techniques. ❤ Will you be popping your weekend makes into Instagram?
Thanks, never thought of that…I think I should!🥰
Thank you. There’s a few of us who are not on Facebook.
Christine, do you clean off the glue spray from your stencils after using them? If so, how. If not, how do you store them? I love the video and technique. Thank you.
I just wipe them with a baby wipe or give them a wash in soapy water if needed.I store my stencils in an A4 plastic box file.
I absolutely love the frame. Thank you for sharing tips from your weekend.
You are so welcome!❤️
