    So, about the Golden Teal ... It dries SO fast! I bought some High Flow, thinking (hoping) it might dry more slowly. Nope. Is buying some stuff (for $8) to extend the open time, my best bet? If so, I’ll just stop buying Teal. That’ll show ‘em! 😘 Just got the rice paper & It’s great, especially since I do lots of two-layer prints. Thanks for recommendation 😘

    • @ElizabethStHilaire
      @ElizabethStHilaire  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don’t believe that anyone color dries faster than another. It probably depends on your climate and how thick you apply it. They all have the same binder. You can use Golden‘s OPEN line of paints, if you want a slow dry acrylic. But I find that problematic for quick layering, I want them to be dry as soon as the print is pulled. I guess it’s just a matter of experimenting everyone finds a different groove. :-)

    Do you have a second best rice paper that you would recommend because on the Canadian Amazon site they are charging 75.00 dollars for the pack which is ridiculous amount of money. Is there another brand that might have similar properties to the one you showed in the video. Is there a number I should be looking for that would tell me the strength of the paper. Thanks for sharing, can’t hardly wait for your new stencils with Joggles

    • @ElizabethStHilaire
      @ElizabethStHilaire  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is no number, it’s been a hit and miss search for me to find this pad of rice paper. Maybe you can go to Local art supply stores in person. Because you really need to check the thickness and make sure that it’s sturdy. There’s a lot of rice papers out there online that look good in the description but then you order them and they’re way too thin. This same paper also does come on a roll, that is on my Amazon website, I believe it is 8” x 30’. It is the same paper
