You are the queen of using graphic shapes/designs in the most aesthetically pleasing ways possible! I so look forward to seeing your work as it always provides a way of seeing things in ways I hadn’t considered.
Thank you for sharing your experiences and experiments with large stencils. Absolutely stunning cards! As I mentioned to Karen, I don’t work a lot with stencils. Yet! I am inspired to dig them out of my stash and start my own experiments. Thanks 👍
I have moved twice since purchasing the Penguin Palace Stencil 360 so I have not been able to play with it. This really inspired me. I think I can find it now. Thanks for the beautiful ideas and the fail, that always helps
Oh yay! Please contact me if you have any trouble with it (it comes with a LOT of pieces which can feel overwhelming at first, but once you power through that, you will love what you can do with it, I'm sure! ) Thanks so much for watching!
The one that gave you such a challenge was definitely worth the work. I'm nearly having to pick up my jaw off the floor over how beautiful it turned out. And you're having a great hair day too! Win/win!
Beautiful cards! Not ones I would have thought of as being “Christmas-y”, but I’m finding that they don’t have to be. That last card looks like a close up of a zinnia flower!! Thanks so much for sharing your talent.
I was counting on the red colour scheme to give them a holiday feel, but I do feel like pretty patterns can work for any occasion! Thanks for watching!
OMG what amázing results, really stunning cards 👍, i've got some big stencils too, going to look through them again, cause i have hardly ever used them, did not know when i bought them, that they were so big (mmm... Perhaps because of you not such a big mistake anymore, thx!) , but akso thx 4 adding some "mistakes" in your video, we all make them, but most of thetime i don't give up, like u do and come up with new techniques or have to add stuf that make it even better, and i learn a lot from my mistakes, so nice to see i don't sometimes struggle alone 🤭😉😁, love your video!
Your last one should be a patterned paper....I’d buy it😃 excellent and informative Ardyth (my mom was Ardith♥️) Love seeing Canadian talent ...I’m Canadian too.. Hugs🤗💕💕
Oh that's so nice! One of my close friends' mother is Ardyth! So fun to be in such a 'select' club! lol! Thanks for watching, Sharon! I'm from Toronto - where are you?
Stunning Ardyth, your card ideas are always lovely. You are so right I come across a large size stencil I don't give it a thought until now. Thank you for inspiring me
Ardyth, the last card IS stunning!!!! 😍😍. But I also loved the spray design. I kind of thought it looked like twisted ribbons. 🤷🏻♀️. Can’t wait to see what you do next. 😉😉
I just found your channel. Thank you - I've always been wary of using domed blenders on my stencils for the exact same reason. Time to get my brushes out! And I loved how the last card came out. I couldn't really see where it was heading - until the last view. Stunning!
So so cool. I too haven’t used my really large stencils that I love so much when I saw them on cards. This video has helped me try what I have for really neat “guy” cards as well. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us!
It's impossible to get it right for everyone. But you can slow down the speed of any TH-cam video by clicking in the lower right corner and adjusting it - hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Hey Ardyth, I'm a new subscriber, discovered you through your swap with Keren. What you accomplished with just a few tools and only two or three colors is nothing short of amazing. My media of choice are usually colored pencils on paper and acrylics on canvas. So glad you partnered with Keren and opened my eyes. Bright blessings from Louisiana.
Love those stencils & cards, especially the one with the circle mask. Hope your joggles link is an affiliate link because I spent way too much money over there getting a few stencils…and then a ton of other stuff, yikes.
Your projects are always so inspirational! I have issues with Pixie Spray, soap and water doesn't remove it for me....my stencils remain sticky. What's your tip?
I'm sorry to say, I don't have a tip. I live with the residual sticky after the soap and water - it's usually just a little tacky and doesn't seem to cause me any issues. I hope you can find an answer! Thanks so much for watching!
What a great video on ink blending with stencils. All of your cards turned out beautiful, but the last one with the circle turning thing, Lol, is absolutely stunning. Is the lighted lighting bolt behind you have anything to do with Harry Potter? Just wondering.
Haha! No. It's more of a nod to David Bowie. I am a BIG fan. Never even thought of Harry Potter, which probably shows just how old I am LOL! Thanks so much for watching!
You can use soapy warm water, but I usually find that there is still a little bit of 'stick' left, which doesn't bother me. I think that rubbing alcohol or a 'goo-gone' type product would probably remove it completely. Thanks for watching, Christine!
Haha! No such thing as a dumb question. My square cards are 4.25x4.25 inches so they fit in regular A2 cards, and don't require extra postage. And that's why I haven't even looked to see if anyone sells envelopes that size! Thanks for watching!
Please help? I used pixie spray one time and when I tried to clean it I could not get that junk off! I even tried alcohol! I know now to have a little baking pan close by with water, but if I forget it get lazy, can I get that off some other way? Thanks!
I would love to help, but I really can't. My stencils are a little sticky after cleaning with soap and water, but I don't mind it, so I have never tried to figure out how to get that last little bit off. I'm surprised alcohol didn't work - I think that's what I would have recommended trying. Hope you can find the answer! Thanks so much for watching!
@@ardyth well thank you for telling me that you have that residue left also. I thought maybe my van was bad. I enjoy watching you Ardyth. You just ooze talent out of your skin! The speed that you can create is mind blowing. Always such beautiful cards! Thank you! Happy thanksgiving!🦃🍁🍽
Don’t use the word “Juicy” that’s a ridiculous choice. Is it a fruit or a forever chemical? Ever heard of a synonym? Saturated, full, new ink pad, soaked - even the word moist would work.
Wow! Thanks for letting me know. Juicy is definitely a term widely used by cardmakers. And if you knew what I meant when I said it, then it worked. Thanks for watching!
You are the queen of using graphic shapes/designs in the most aesthetically pleasing ways possible! I so look forward to seeing your work as it always provides a way of seeing things in ways I hadn’t considered.
Thank you so much 😀
Just rewatched and wowed all over again
So glad you enjoyed it!
I love that you show the hits and misses
It's part of crafting. We don't (at least I don't) get it perfect first time - a lot of it is experimenting! Thanks so much for watching!
You weren't too happy when you used the sprays. As a artist, I really liked it! :)
Thanks for watching!
Those techniques were great for those large stencil. They made beautiful cards. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much!
Wow! Absolutely stunning. I would have never thought to try big stencils. You have certainly changed my mind.😊
Thanks so much 😊
You've got me digging big stencils out...brilliant cards..thank you.
Thanks so much for watching!
Oh my!!! More genius designs, from the very wonderful Ardyth!! TFS xXx
Thanks so much, Michelle!
I love bigger stencils u get more designs with them! Thanks for sharing this 😀
Definitely there's more choice for which part of the pattern to include on the card. Thanks so much for watching!
Great colors and composition. Your voice is pleasant to listen to also!
Thank you so much! Voiceovers still make me nervous! lol! Thanks so much for watching!
Wow that stencil wheel is super cool. That result was stunning. I love working with stencils. I get such good ideas from your videos. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Those are all fantastic, but the last one was stunning! Good on ya for not letting the 360 stencil beat you! lol
Haha! I'm stubborn that way! Thanks so much for watching!
Those are huge stencils!! Great job!
Laura
Thanks so much! 😊
Such gorgeous cards! That lotus stencil is SO pretty! I hadn’t seen the stencils 360 tool! So cool! Thanks for sharing! :)
Thanks so much for watching!
Love the last one they are all gorgeous!!
Thanks so much, Kathy!
Well done, as usual! That 360 degree tool still baffles me but you nailed from the beginning!
Haha! It's less complicated than it looks. And it's fun! Thanks for watching!
I LOVE that. you do fails! Saves us a lot of time lol! That last stencil was the bomb!
Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you for sharing your experiences and experiments with large stencils. Absolutely stunning cards! As I mentioned to Karen, I don’t work a lot with stencils. Yet! I am inspired to dig them out of my stash and start my own experiments. Thanks 👍
So glad you're feeling inspired! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Ardyth…i enjoy your channel and your endless supply of inspiration on these colourful and amazing designs….addictive..❤🎉
Thank you so much!
I have moved twice since purchasing the Penguin Palace Stencil 360 so I have not been able to play with it. This really inspired me. I think I can find it now. Thanks for the beautiful ideas and the fail, that always helps
Oh yay! Please contact me if you have any trouble with it (it comes with a LOT of pieces which can feel overwhelming at first, but once you power through that, you will love what you can do with it, I'm sure! ) Thanks so much for watching!
Lovely collection of cards, love those big 9" x 12" stencils!
Thanks so much!
Wow! Beautiful cards! I was thinking poinsettia as well for the stencil card. Love the stencils and colors you’ve used.! Beautiful!
Thank you so much!
😆 I totally get the drama!! But these turned out to be a perfect card set. I especially love the peacock pattern you found in the stencil!
Thanks so much for watching!
Absolutely STUNNING!!
Thank you so much!
Another pretty one! Thanks!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great ideas!! Thanks for sharing!!
You are so welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
Great cards,Arduth. Love the technique.
Thanks so much!
These are lovely, love the colours and stencils.
Thanks so much 😊
The one that gave you such a challenge was definitely worth the work. I'm nearly having to pick up my jaw off the floor over how beautiful it turned out. And you're having a great hair day too! Win/win!
OMG, this made me laugh out loud! Good hair days are rare, so I'm glad I got it on camera! Thanks so much for watching and making me smile!
@@ardyth ❤️
Fabulous cards. I said “WOW” at the last one!
Wow,gorgeous cards! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much!
Fabulous!
Thanks so much!
Love these ideas - and love how your cards turned out! Wow!

These are so very beautiful!
Thank you! 😊

Thanks so much for watching!
These are beautiful! I love the last one! Just kept getting prettier each turn
Thank you so much!
Wow! Awesome cards. I wish my mind could think like yours. ;0)
Squint your eyes and tilt your head when you look at your supplies! lol! That's mostly what I do. Thanks so much for watching!
@@ardyth That's a great tip. I'm going to try that. ☺
Wow! They were all very pretty but you really knocked it out of the park with that last one. Stunning.
Thanks so much for watching!
Wow Ardyth. I never even look at the large stencils but I can see now that I really shoul you really got amazing results. Thanks so much. 😊
Thanks so much 😊
Beautiful
Thanks so much for watching!
That final card looks like a close-up of the center of a dahlia. And the CP colors you used look gorgeous on all the cards.
Yes! Thanks so much for watching, Cordelia!
Your last one should be a patterned paper....I’d buy it😃 excellent and informative Ardyth (my mom was Ardith♥️) Love seeing Canadian talent ...I’m Canadian too.. Hugs🤗💕💕

Thanks so much!
Stunning Ardyth, your card ideas are always lovely. You are so right I come across a large size stencil I don't give it a thought until now. Thank you for inspiring me
Thank you so much!
The last one, which started out not going so well, turned out to be my favorite! It was stunning!
Mine too! LOVE it! Thanks for watching!
What was the last stencil and tool you send?
I meant what was the tool you used?
Love these thanks for sharing 😃
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the great ideas using large stencils. Love how they all turned out 💕
Thanks so much! 😊
Beautiful x
Thank you! 😊
Great ideas

I loved all of these, even the "failed" one. You are very talented 😊👍.
Thanks so much for watching!
These are all stunning and the last one is gorgeous 😍
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous patterns and blending ~ that last pattern looks like a Dahlia. Love these cards!
Thanks so much for watching!
Ardyth, the last card IS stunning!!!! 😍😍. But I also loved the spray design. I kind of thought it looked like twisted ribbons. 🤷🏻♀️. Can’t wait to see what you do next. 😉😉
Thanks so much! 😊I think I might try it again. Thanks so much for watching!
Absolutly beautiful!!! Thank you for this video
You are so welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
Gorgeous cards! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much!
I just found your channel. Thank you - I've always been wary of using domed blenders on my stencils for the exact same reason. Time to get my brushes out! And I loved how the last card came out. I couldn't really see where it was heading - until the last view. Stunning!
I love to experiment - especially when it finally works! lol! Thanks so much for watching!
I love the collaborations…you are both so talented…thank you 👏
Thanks so much! I am in awe of Keren's ability to design these amazing stencils!
The last one reminds me of designs from a spirograph, very cool!
I would love to see some Hanukkah cards as well
Yes! These designs in blue would be fabulous!
Wow! Beautiful results - especially on the challenging one!! ❤️
Thanks so much for watching!
More 'AAHHHH" moments watching you create. Love the results
Thanks so much for watching!
I love your videos
Thanks so much!
Gorgeous blending! Your cards were all so lovely. TFS 😊
Thanks so much 😊
Yes that blending surely is fab!
So so cool. I too haven’t used my really large stencils that I love so much when I saw them on cards. This video has helped me try what I have for really neat “guy” cards as well. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us!
Yay! I love being able to use what I already have! Thanks so much for watching!
Such great stencil ides. I do wish your voice over was a bit slower.
It's impossible to get it right for everyone. But you can slow down the speed of any TH-cam video by clicking in the lower right corner and adjusting it - hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Ardyth, you do such an amazing job! Great ideas, tips and beautiful cards!! Thank you for sharing. 💜
That's very sweet! Thanks so much for watching!
Ardyth these cards are beautiful! I love how you demonstrated getting completely different looks from the same stencils ❤️
Thanks so much!
Very nice video :)
Thank you very much!
The despair was worth it. 😀
I agree! The triumph completely overcame the despair! lol! Thanks for watching!
Wow!
Thanks!
I've noticed your sound has a bit of an echo, or a sound like your in a cave. I love your videos!
I made this video a couple of years ago, and my knowledge and equipment has hopefully improved over time! lol! Thanks for watching!
Hey Ardyth, I'm a new subscriber, discovered you through your swap with Keren. What you accomplished with just a few tools and only two or three colors is nothing short of amazing. My media of choice are usually colored pencils on paper and acrylics on canvas. So glad you partnered with Keren and opened my eyes. Bright blessings from Louisiana.

amazing

@@ardyth you're welcome
Stunning cards 🥰 I love the stencils, your color choices and your card designs ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Thanks so much for watching!
Love those stencils & cards, especially the one with the circle mask. Hope your joggles link is an affiliate link because I spent way too much money over there getting a few stencils…and then a ton of other stuff, yikes.
Yes, it is an affiliate link! Thank you so much for supporting me! I know you'll enjoy your goodies!
Your projects are always so inspirational! I have issues with Pixie Spray, soap and water doesn't remove it for me....my stencils remain sticky. What's your tip?

Clever idea…using the aluminum foil
Thanks so much!
What a great video on ink blending with stencils. All of your cards turned out beautiful, but the last one with the circle turning thing, Lol, is absolutely stunning. Is the lighted lighting bolt behind you have anything to do with Harry Potter? Just wondering.
Haha! No. It's more of a nod to David Bowie. I am a BIG fan. Never even thought of Harry Potter, which probably shows just how old I am LOL! Thanks so much for watching!
@@ardyth I only know about Harry Potter because of my son. He was/is still a big fan and he’s 28. David Bowie is more my speed.
Ardyth, what do you use to get the pixie spray off? Please.
You can use soapy warm water, but I usually find that there is still a little bit of 'stick' left, which doesn't bother me. I think that rubbing alcohol or a 'goo-gone' type product would probably remove it completely. Thanks for watching, Christine!
maybe I missed it but what size are the cards?
Some are A2 and some are 4 1/4" squares. Thanks for watching!
I have a really dumb question but when you make a square card, do you have to make the envelope? Does anyone sell square envelopes?
Haha! No such thing as a dumb question. My square cards are 4.25x4.25 inches so they fit in regular A2 cards, and don't require extra postage. And that's why I haven't even looked to see if anyone sells envelopes that size! Thanks for watching!
@@ardyth Thank you, Ardyth! I have always been too embarrassed to ask that question, but now I know! Thank you for your informative and fun videos!
Please help? I used pixie spray one time and when I tried to clean it I could not get that junk off! I even tried alcohol! I know now to have a little baking pan close by with water, but if I forget it get lazy, can I get that off some other way? Thanks!

@@dizzinese Oh you are very sweet! Thanks so much! And Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Where do I get a MISTI?
Most online stamping stores have them - Simon, Scrapbook, Ellen Hutson, Catherine Pooler. Thanks for watching!
Gave me some tips ...... nono nannette
Glad it was useful! Thanks for watching!
Don’t use the word “Juicy” that’s a ridiculous choice. Is it a fruit or a forever chemical? Ever heard of a synonym? Saturated, full, new ink pad, soaked - even the word moist would work.

Thanks so much!
