Great tutorial Barb. I really appreciate how you share your thought process as you went through the actual creation.
Might be because it’s late lady, but it makes sense to met too!! Had some trauma lately so nice to listen to your calm steady voice. Thanks as always for sharing your talents.
Hi there. I'm glad that I could help in some small way. Wishing you all the best. Be Creative when you can. ;-)
This is great ! It gives me knew ideas for a different project! Thanks.
This is from your future, 3 years after this video. You're still just as gorgeous on the outside as you are on the inside. Much love from your past and into the future!
These atcs are wonderful! Love them! The coins are cool too.

Great ideas for ATC cards and great technique. So fun!
Just got into ATC in a card swap group. Enjoying them, beyond my normal card making.
Wow! I learned something new today to Create more ATC Cards. I have a Jar of Vaseline not being used.
I loved this video and I’m so glad I found it. Thank you so much.
Just ordered the cards and can't wait to try this technique. Thank you
Hi Tina! Your cards went out today so you should have them this week. I hope you really enjoy using them. Thanks for watching! Stay Creative!

Hey APG!! I think you are the ATC Queen. ;-) I always love seeing what you create, too. Big Hugs!
Loved this. Thank you so much! You're so inspiring!
Thank you so much. I love what I do and I hope that it shows. ;-) Stay Creative!
As a ATC newbie looks like a lot of work and resources involved.
Hi Peggy. Just use the techniques and products that appeal to you or that you have. There are no rules - just ideas. Enjoy the process and play. Thanks for watching.
Excellent work. Nice presentation as well.
Beautiful ATC’s! TFS! 😊
Hi Ruth! I'm so glad you enjoyed them. Sending you big, creative hugs!
Using these inspiration cards is a great idea of creating embellishments! Have to get a set of cards, for there are so many shapes to make our embellishments! They will,provide hours of time making them individually
Hi Cheryl. When you pull the cards apart, it's really incredible how many viable colorful art supplies are available inside just 1 box of cards. And, then there are the inspiration words and quotes. When I began actually working/playing with the card pieces, I was thrilled! I hope that you get the cards and have many, many hours of fun with them. ;-) Stay Creative!
Nice,thank you😊
New subscriber to your channel❤❤❤
This was a very informative video, thanks.
Hi Karla. Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Stay Creative!

Just purchased my deck. I use that watercolor paper too. Thanks for another great video. 💕💕
Hi Jill! Your deck is in the mail. Enjoy!! I really like using this w/c paper for lots of uses. The price is great, isn't it? Thanks for watching. Stay Creative!
LOVE Meri and you!
Hi Christine. You're very kind. Meri is WONDERFUL! Thanks so much for watching. Stay Creative!
Great class will we ordering my second deck of cards.Big Hugs Linda
Hi Linda! Your deck is in the mail. ;-) You should receive it in a day or two. Enjoy and have fun. Stay Creative!
Your ATC turn out so pretty love them
Hi Joyce. Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed seeing another way to use the cards from the Mandala Madness Inspiration Deck. Thank you for watching. Stay Creative!
Everything is sooo beautiful, and you have such a lovely voice to listen to. Wish shipping to Canada wasn't worth way more than the cards, and then there is the exchange rate putting 1 deck close to $100. *sigh* I guess I will just have to keep coming back and watching this tutorial. Thank you!
Hi Pat. Thanks so much for watching. I totally understand about the shipping issue. I looked at all the options for international shipping and believe it or not, the one on the site is the least expensive option that I found. It's insane! Thanks, again, for watching. Stay Creative!
Lovin those ATCs
Hi Elizabeth! Thanks so much. I love watching your videos about ATCs. I really loved your Christmas cards made with paper bags - so creative! Your creativity blows me away!! Thanks for watching. ;-)
Hello Barb these are so lovely!! I love cobalt blue!!!TFS, these are great suggestions!!! 🐩💎XO🌹XO💘XO💜XO💎🐩
Hi Lala! Thanks so much for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed them. I love cobalt, as well. ;-) Stay Creative!
I love making ATCs. I bought a Sizzix Bigz ATC die so my process goes quickly. Then I can spend more time on actual art. They r fun. Think I’ll try your method and use some Gelli plate prints to die cut balloons or birds. Thanks for the ideas.
Hi Pat. That's a great idea about the ATC die. I bet it saves a lot of time. Thank you so much for watching. Keep Creating!
I’m thinking that if you are using the same tissue paper for a batch, you could glue it to the full sized watercolor sheet then cut to ATC size. Please advise if you think this wouldn’t work well.
Hi Kim. I don't see why that wouldn't work. Try it and let me know what you think. thanks for watching. Stay Creative!
Hello. I’m trying desperately to find the mandala madness inspiration cards. If you could help me with that I would be very grateful. Thank you so much. ♥️
Love this idea❣️
Hi Eloise. Thanks so much for watching! I hope that you try it and make some ATCs to keep or share. Stay Creative!
What a great idea of using these manadalamimspiration card
Hi Cheryl! Thanks so much for watching. I know that I created the cards, but I truly had no idea how much I would LOVE using them! I use them every single day for my own personal inspiration - writing, creating, Mandalas and more. Stay Creative!
Beautiful, time to find my petroleum jelly
Hi Beth. The first time I saw this technique (Claudine Hellmuth) I had to play and play and play! It becomes even more fun when you add 2 or 3 colors. The challenge is to get rid of every trace of the petroleum jelly IF you plan to add pen work or markers over the background. Regardless, it's loads of fun to experiment with! Thanks for watching. Stay Creative!
I am new to your channel. you just showed me a lot this video.Thank you
Hi Tammy. Welcome to my channel and I'm so glad you found me! I'm happy to know that you enjoyed this video. Stay Creative!
Great tutorial. I am new to ATC concept.
Hi Terri. ATC's are commonly created in rectangles like these and fairly recently as 2½" coins, too. They are loads of fun to create and send or trade with others. Thanks for watching. Stay Creative!
Love youer ATC.....
Hi Marianne. Thanks so much for watching! Stay Creative!
Awesome😀👍
Thanks so much for watching, Julie. Stay Creative!
Can I use bee's wax or candle wax instead?
My favorite question is, "I wonder what happens if . . ." Just try what you have and see if you like it. I bet you'll find techniques that I never thought of trying. Just Stay Creative!
These are delightful! Love ATCs , the Mandala cards and balloons! Look forward to seeing more on your channel.
Hi Pam. Thanks so much for watching. There are quite a few videos here and I stream live the first Friday of each month at 2pm Eastern. Feel free to join me if it works for you. Stay Creative!
Another question: Where did you get those small Ziploc bags? They're just the right size for keeping small pieces of work all together, as you have them. I used to be able to get what Ziploc called snack bags, but they discontinued them. Thanks.
Hi there. The little bags are in fact snack bags from the grocery store. The store where I shop still carries them although I don't think they are Ziplocs. You can also find small zipper bags where jewelry supplies are sold in hobby/art stores. Hope that helps. Stay Creative!
Thanks and thanks for your patience. I'll have to look at the grocery store where we shop. They're such a good size and I would like to be able to get some more. I have a few from way back when ZipLock still had them. Also, I never thought to look for them elsewhere like online, to see if anyone makes those bags set up like the snack bags because they are wide rather than long and that makes them easier to get into. I like to keep scraps organized in them so I can see what I have without having to dig through piles of scraps in a box.
Wish I could get these cards in the U.K.
Tfs learned alot
Hi Eleanor. Thank you so much for watching. Stay Creative!
Didn't you say it's a Tim Holtz board? He's into grunge, so the board is grungy like it should be, so don't apologize for that. :D By the way--I recently did get the book by Claudine Hellmuth, so it is still around. It's 9/20/2019 right now.
Hi there. I'm guessing that you might be referring to my cruddy craft mat. ;-) It is a mat from Tim Holtz/Ranger that I've attached to a board with Gorilla Tape so it's easy for me to move around and it stays flat. I use it mostly for messy stuff like alcohol inks. And it's definitely grungy!! Claudine's books are great and I'm glad you found one! Thanks so much for watching. Stay Creative!
Yes, you were apologizing for the condition of that board, so I was trying to make a lame joke about it to cheer you up. It sounds like quite a contraption and is put to good use. When people are letting others see how they create their art works, I'm not about to worry about the condition of the mats, or anything else they're using. :) Thank you for sharing with us.
Yes, I was referring to your cruddy craft mat. :) Sounds like a good board for hard-to-remove products so you can save the good ones.
where do you find the inspiration cards
Hi Cherry. The information about the Mandala Mandness Inspiration Cards is located in the description box below the video. To make it easy, you can just click this link, too. MandalaMadness.com/cards Thanks so much for watching. Stay Creative!
Where in Hobby Lobby did you find this tissue paper? Is it the kind that you would use for mixed media projects? The kind that's thicker?
Hi there. This tissue paper was in the section where the gift bags, gift wrap and tissue papers are located. It's thicker than plain white tissue paper but thinner than a traditional gift wrapping paper. Hope that helps. Stay Creative!
Hi Barb, Thanks for your quick and thoughtful reply. I didn't even think of the card and gift bags and wraps in Hobby Lobby. I could look at napkins while there, also, which are good for making ATCards and Coins. Thanks so much. I sure enjoyed your video.
I know you'll have fun hunting for papers to use! That's one of the most enjoyable things for me - the thrill of the hunt. ;-) Enjoy and have fun!
Great tutorial! Do we have to worry about the copyright on the mandala cards?
Hi Sharon. Thank you so much for watching. I'm not sure what you mean by "worry about the copyright". I own the copyright on the cards, eBooks and Mandala Madness courses. If you could clarify your question, I'll be happy to answer. Thanks, again, for your kind comment. ;-) Stay Creative!
Thank you for replying! Yes, I see you own those copyrights, but what if I use your cards or someone else’s cards to make my own art to sell or give away? Would I be violating your copyright, or are they “altered” enough after I cut them up, paint over, etc. to have me not be in violation of your copyright? As a writer and artist myself, I worry about this. I would hate to get in legal trouble. Thank you, again.
Hi Sharon. I can only speak about our Mandala Madness Inspiration Cards so you would have to contact the copyright holder for any other decks. If you use our cards to create your own original art to sell, you are free to do that and you would not be violating any copyright here. If you made copies of our cards to use to sell, that would be a different story OR if you made finished art and made copies of that to sell, there would be an issue. As long as you are using the cards themselves to make finished original pieces, feel free to sell them and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Thanks for your question! Stay Creative! Barb
Thank you so very much for clearing that up!
Is there no end to your creative ideas? Not so far🎨
Hi Susan! I think that's the amazing part about Creativity - there is no end to it. Creativity is open-ended, forever! Isn't that amazing?! Thanks so much for watching. Stay Creative!
