Wow. In all my years of stamping, I have never seen anyone using both sides of vellum. The results are simply stunning. I just love watching your videos. You have such a soothing voice and share with us your technique of how to make unique and beautiful cards using minimal, simple supplies.
@@Chrissieannie yea! Found it on EBay. I looked at so many similar products but none had the delicate detail as the one you featured. I’m a happy lady.
I am notified of comments when they are made, thank you so much. I did a tutorial for this one at the time on Splitcoaststampers too!😊 thank you so much!
You are certainly keeping me busy, before I started watching you I had lost my mojo and as your cards are so simple and of course fantastic, beautiful, elegant style I get so intrigued as to what you will come up with next, I wait in anticipation and excited for your next video, thank you so much, I love making cards again 😉🥰🤗
Christine, you show me how you can make a card more card by making it look simple AND elegant. My gilding flakes, velum, and white cardstock are getting a thorough crafting workout. Thank you for you innovative ideas. I have used deveral for my christmas cards.
I’ve only just found you following a recommendation from Amy’s Ware’s. It’s great to be able to watch videos from British presenters. I love your ideas!
This gives a lovely 3D effect reminiscent of M C Escher's pond, with leaves floating on the surface, fish swimming underneath & a reflection of the sky above. Truly beautiful, and I have a birthday card to make so I''ve chosen this StokesTechnique, thank you! :)
Fabulous!!! Why didn’t I think of that🤦🏻♀️!!! The stamping tool to help you spread your ink around is called Stampendable Stamping Tool, hope this helps? As always, Thank you for sharing this lovely card!!!
I hadn’t heard of this company’s name for the stamping tool, thanks for that. I think Gina K calls hers something different and I think that was the name I was trying to think of, I still don’t recall what her name for one is!🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely gorgeous! What a unique idea to use both sides of the vellum! It’s a beautiful result! Will have to try it sometime! You are so generous with your talent and to share with us, I have learned so much from you! Never too old to learn something new!💜💞💞
I've stamped on the back side of vellum before but never both sides at the same time...so this is fascinating! Looking forward to experimenting with this...your examples are stunning!
LOVE this technique, Chrissie. I love that it gives a 3-D look to the vellum panel with both side being stamp. Definitely giving this a try! Thank you! xx
Hi Christine. What a wonderful technique. It reminds me of frost on leaves in Winter. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent. Love to you and to all - Dawn 🌅
Woo hoo! I found that I have that stamp! Impression Obsession Rose Leaves CC309! It’s truly beautiful but even more so with your technique, Christine! I’m so glad I discovered your channel! I’m hooked!
I just found you on TH-cam and I really enjoyed your video. Your cards are absolutely gorgeous! I think stamping on the back with a color was a brilliant idea. I will most definitely be giving that a try.
to make glue invisible behind vellum = put some glue (the white kind) on an extra surface dilute with a LITTLE bit of water and then apply this EVENLY and THINLY all over the vellum - stick the vellum down - a good idea is to put some weight ( a book maybe) on it for a little while a glue stick might also work
Lovely technique - cannot wait to try it. The stamping tool (aka your alabaster) is called a Chuckie Tool. It was created by Chuck Meadows for Gina K. to help with arthritic hands. He is so kind, he declined to patent it and told anyone who wanted to make one and even sell, to have at it.
Well you learn something new every day… on some sites in the UK they are called Pressure Tools and someone told me that the original tool for use in printing is called a ’baren’! What am I going to do with all this information I’m gaining? 😁😁😁
Believe me, of course! lol Go on Gina's site. There are a ton of photos of how everyone made one of their own. I made some for others using a furniture slide that had a felt type material on the bottom and a large spool.
The thing to use with the stamp platforms to put even pressure on is called a baren. It's a printing press tool! Just found your channel and love your techniques so will subscribe xx
That's such an interesting technique. I like the dimension it gives to the design. I'm also interested in how you mounted one of your vellum pieces and created that impressed area around the frame. I hope you'll demonstrate that or link to where you already have. Thanks for such interesting and instructive videos!
Thank you again for an really interesting and beautiful demonstration. I think the burnishing tool (your alabaster tealight holder) is called a 'baren' and is used in printing and lino cutting.
Thank you, I'm delighted to have had the elucidation... I think the stamping platform people call their little plastic versions 'pressure tools' I think baren is much better! 😃😃😃
Most of my square cards are around 6 x 6ins I do make smaller ones at 5 x 5 ins and sometimes even smaller ones 4 x 4 ins, but I cut all my card bases from sheets of A4 card which measure 29cms x 21cms this video shows sone of the card bases I often use. th-cam.com/video/yHNCdjknKD0/w-d-xo.html
Gorgeous cards and a beautiful technique with the right stamp. Yours was perfect! What is the name of that stamp? I saw someone said it is no longer available. Unfortunately all of my background stamps seem too solid or thin outlines.
Another marvellous video for us Chris. 2 questions I'm afraid. How do you achieve the 3d look on your single frame card ? and Do you have the number of the triple square Sizzix die as I cannot source it ? Sometimes number is on reverse of the die I think. Thank you so much.
The single square card has a frame cut with a couple of Presscut dies and mounted on foam tape with a de-bossed square in the panel surrounding it. Sizzix dies 659647
Thanks Chris you're so kind . Hope you're keeping cool. We've had rain here in Cheshire this morning for a few minutes. I sat in it abd it was fantastic 🤣🤣
I love this! gorgeous and creative card. I was so excited too cause I was pretty sure I had that stamp but I can’t find it. Do you remember the name of it?
I also love that stamp and am crossing my fingers that I have it, but so far can’t find it in my spreadsheet of my inventory… many of my stamps are currently in boxes. I also can’t find it online - might we be able to confirm it is SSS Rose Leaves or not? I always find myself wishing the names of stamps and firs were mentioned. Such beautiful techniques I’d love to recreate!
@@Chrissieannie @Dawn Miller - Any chance it's Rose Leaves Background by Impression Obsession? It looks similar. Simon sells many brands. This may be out of stock now.
I believe you are right, I have a lots of IO and Simon's background stamps and have probably got them muddled. I certainly purchased it from SSS. Thanks for your help.
@@Chrissieannie Well, I loved it. So, of course, I had to have it. Can't wait to use it. I have a database full of my crafty stash as I've purchased the same thing more than once so now I double check to be sure it's now already in my possession. Works most the time.

Thank you so much for this most complimentary comment, it is greatly appreciated.🥰
@@Chrissieannie unfortunately, It seems SSS doesn’t sell the background stamp any longer so, I’m looking for one similar.
That's a shame, it may be possible to find it from an independent seller 🤞🏻
@@Chrissieannie yea! Found it on EBay. I looked at so many similar products but none had the delicate detail as the one you featured. I’m a happy lady.

❤️❤️❤️
Great idea 😃👌. I came from the video you made today 5 July. Both are beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊 I’m so glad you like them❤️
Amazing! Haha ... keep wondering why my brain doesn’t work this way.
My brain doesn’t always work this way either! 😊😊😊
I like velum. Don't use it enough. Thanks for your inspiration Chrissie
So glad! Thanks for watching!
Hi Christine, I am amazed also about printing on the back of vellum, I’ll have to try that. Jenny
There will be a whole tutorial on that coming up in Splitcoaststampers very soon!

I tried this today, but with a leaf stamp more open -- I definitely need to use a more solid stamp -- but it was still fun.
Thanks

Very interesting video that shows a different , elegant way of double inking vellum , thanks .
Thanks
Thank you so much for this Chrssie. I am not much good at stamping and therefore do not often use it. You have inspired me!!
That’s so good to hear, thank you 🤍🤍🤍
What a gorgeous technique, Christine thanks 😊, I think I may give it a go!
I was pleased how it turned out!
Hi Christine. What a wonderful technique. It reminds me of frost on leaves in Winter. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent. Love to you and to all - Dawn 🌅
Thanks so much
That is just so beautiful and certainly saves the concern of adhesive. I will certainly be trying your technique. TFS
Thanks so much
Hi Christine. I love vellum. This is a technique that I will have to try. Thanks so much. 😊
It's fun, I think you'll enjoy it.
I love this technique! So many possibilities!

Long may it continue! 🤍🤍🤍 thank you!
They certainly are fabulous ❤
Thank you
What a great idea!!**Thanks for the share
Thank you 🤎
Thank you. A great idea. I like using vellum and have drawer full, so I'll give this a try.
Thanks!
Hi. Such a great technique that renders maximum results. Thank you for sharing this. Time to hunt down my vellum stash.
Thanks 🤎🤎🤎

Thanks so much, I hope you'll subscribe to my channel! 😊
Very cool technique & so simple! Thank you!

Beautiful! I use my brayer for large background stamps.
I have done that too but I like using my gizmo!😃

This can make the vellum buckle or crinkle which I don’t care for, I prefer to hide the way I adhere it! 😊😊😊

I just looked it up, in the craft stores they are called 'pressure tools' ! Thanks
Beautiful cards. I will try making these cards. What size is your square card? Can you give me the measurements in inches. Thank you.
Most of my square cards are around 6 x 6ins I do make smaller ones at 5 x 5 ins and sometimes even smaller ones 4 x 4 ins, but I cut all my card bases from sheets of A4 card which measure 29cms x 21cms this video shows sone of the card bases I often use. th-cam.com/video/yHNCdjknKD0/w-d-xo.html
Great video thanks heaps
My pleasure!
very pretty
Thanks
Great idea!!! Beautiful cards!! How do you keep the ink from smearing on the vellum?
If you use a dye ink like the one I used, it dries fairly quickly and being on the reverse can't be touched by anything to risk smearing!
Brilliant cards can you let me know the name of the stamp
The stamp is Impression Obsession Rose leaves, purchased from Simon Says Stamp. Many thanks 🍃
Gorgeous cards and a beautiful technique with the right stamp. Yours was perfect! What is the name of that stamp? I saw someone said it is no longer available. Unfortunately all of my background stamps seem too solid or thin outlines.
I've just done another video using the same process but with small individual stamps, so I'm sure everyone should have something they could use!
Another marvellous video for us Chris. 2 questions I'm afraid.
How do you achieve the 3d look on your single frame card ? and
Do you have the number of the triple square Sizzix die as I cannot source it ? Sometimes number is on reverse of the die I think. Thank you so much.

Hi I have a question which is the front side the you use, the colored side with ink or just the embossed white side..
I used the white embossed side as the right side! The coloured stamping is on the reverse.
It’s called a ‘baren’…
????????
I can’t seem to find you on Instagram. Would love to follow you. I love your videos.

Hi Christine, Thank you for making and sharing this clever idea, i the result is really is gorgeous. ❤ Something else to add to my ‘To try list’

I couldn’t quite make out the name said for the shammy, it sounded like Lawn Fawn, so I did a search and you tube came up with this link where a lady does a comparison with the Lawn Fawn brand and two other PVC Chamois cloths, which you and some of your other viewers may find interesting, because the price differences are interesting, depending on what size cloth you need and your needs for such a cloth for other uses too. So I thought I’d send you a link for you to watch too.
