I am only in 4 min and 29 seconds but I had to pause it to say how happy I am to see someone actually use up the product they got out and not just wipe it away.
I am in Jacksonville. Always looking for more Florida crafters on TH-cam. Are you attending the convention in Lakeland in November? It will be my first conventions since Covid. Hope to see you there.
Hey fellow Florida crafter! It’s on my calendar but that’s my super busy time at work. Not sure if I’ll have a day off or not, but I’m going to try! Thank you for watching!
I just watched your channel for the first time. I really enjoy the simplicity of creating cards without hundreds of dollars of specialty products and dozens of steps. Thank you. I wanted to add that if you print your sentiments out using a laser printer on high quality setting, then you can also foil the entire sheet before cutting them apart or one at a time in a laminator. A lot of libraries use laser printers, because they are so much cheaper than ink jet ink. My local library charges 10 cents per page. They will even help me by putting my cardstock in the printer so I can print to foil.
Great tip about the library! I’ll look into it. Our hobby can certainly be expensive. I tend to only purchase items that are on sale or marked down. Thank you for your comments and for watching!
Wow! First thing, I just found you and I'm so glad I did! I could listen to you all day! Second, thank you for savings on monies!,That's so important!! Thanks again!👋🏼
I just ran across your TH-cam channel, and I have to say that I really enjoyed your video. I love finding new ways to save money and make my own supplies. I'm going to see if I can find these items in my local Hobby Lobby. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas with us!!
Thank you Carol! I have heard that the opal glitter gel has not been found recently, but I haven’t checked my local HB either. You can sub fine glitter and if not loose enough just add a touch of water. You can also use heavy gel gloss instead of extra heavy. I appreciate your watching and commenting!
I don’t normally comment on videos I watch; however, I wanted to say that I liked it when you didn’t fill in the ‘silent’ parts with ‘just words.’ I think I may have to buy a few stencils and give this a try. TFS!
I was born and raised in north eastern Florida!! So I know all about the weather!! I lived most of my life there but now live in north Georgia!! Love you video!!
Love your tip on making up sentiments. I can never find the perfect stamps. Now I can make some up. I don't have banner dies,but can make it work. First time seeing your channel. I subscribe. Good luck reaching your goal. Thanks for sharing.
I’m so excited to try making my own stencil butter. Thank you so much. I have also typed up sentiments but I never quite know which size of font is needed. Can you share with me what is the typical size you use, please?
Thank you for watching and commenting! I don’t have a particular font size. It really depends on my projects. Try printing a page out on regular copy paper (assuming you are printing on cardstock) and testing it on a card front. Once you find a size you like run with it! There are no limits here! Have fun!
What great tips! I have many stencil butters, but always looking for more colors… can’t wait to get the ingredients to try this. And the sentiment hack… fabulous! Just curious why you don’t print them onto heavier paper to begin with… does the ink smudge?… paper not feed??… How fun to customize the font colors…. oh you have inspired me!! Glad Ian did not cause you too much damage, friends South of you are really struggling.🧑🏼🎨
I didn't mention that there is a Matte version of the Golden Heavy Gel, as well. I do have both, but prefer the glossy. You don't have to use the glitter gel, but it sure makes it special! You can color your gels with ink refills or acrylic paints. Have fun with it! As far as the printer. Well, I bought that particular printer because it has a back paper feeder and stated that it could print on yardstick. Well, it only works with card less than 28 pounds. Is that even a thing?? So I made do with what I have. I am so touched that I have inspired you to be adventurous ! I have many friends in south Florida as well. I lived down there for over 30 years. Some have suffered extensive damages and others have had total losses. It's like Hurricane Andrew all over again. It makes me so sad. I hope your friends make it through ok! Stay tuned for an amazing technique I'm working on. I'm hoping to have it perfected by my next video. It's not like anything I've every seen! Thanks for chatting!
I just stumbled across you and boy, am I glad! I will certainly be mixing up some of your stencil butter! What a fantastic alternative to the more costly brand name products! Thank you so much for sharing! Thanks to this video, you have another subscriber!
Hello! I had to search but I found them. Have fun crafting! www.amazon.com/Alinacutle-Christmas-Handmade-Template-Scrapbooking/dp/B09H6YX52X?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
I haven’t been able to find anything like it, but I’d bet that the Golden gel gloss, acrylic paint of your choosing, and a good amount of glitter would work. If it doesn’t have the consistency of buttercream, then I’d thin it with a little water or use a “heavy” gel gloss as opposed to “extra heavy.” You can pretty much add anything to jazz up your gel gloss or matte gel. Happy crafting!
Most printers will print on 80 lb or less cardstock. So once you have the layout of your sentiments the way you want, just put a sheet or two of cardstock in your printer paper tray or hand feed them and then print the sentiments and then no gluing is required!
Truth be told I’m terrified of jamming my printer. They aren’t cheap these days lol. I’ll definitely give it a try though! Thank you for your suggestion. ❤️
@@villagecardandcrafts if you have your manual or can look it up on line it’ll actually tell you how heavy a weight of paper it can handle if it’s not some off brand. Even then it probably will.
Hi, this is the first video of yours I've seen and think it's great. I went to the Hobby Lobby website and searched for Opal Glitter Medium - all that came up was Opal Glitter Glue in multiple colors. It looks as though the product you were using came out of a jar rather than a bottle, so it seems the opal glitter glue might not be the same product. Do you have a link to the exact product? Thanks very much.
Thank you for watching and for your comments! The two products are definitely not the same. I found it near the art/paint section when they were doing their big clearance last month. It is called Masters Touch Opal Glitter Medium. It is a gel base. I looked for a UPC number and it doesn't have one! I'm shocked. However, it is a clear gel similar to the Golden Extra Heavy gel gloss that I used for the base except looser. I would expect that holographic or opal glitter would net similar results it added directly to the Golden. If you wanted a thinner gel you could probably get away with "heavy" gel instead of "extra heavy" and just add glitter of your choosing. It's really very versatile. The acrylic paint could also be thinned out with water if you wanted the consistency to be lighter. Have fun and experiment!
Hi! Thank you for pointing out that I forgot to include the link to the stencil! I've corrected it and it is now in the description, but I've included it below. Her stencils are a great value! www.scrapbook.com/store/ac-34010781.html
I love knowing how to make those expensive supplies that are just rehashed paint with a medium. Thank you! Please let us know what all that "wax" stuff is made from. I use my laser printer to print sentiment and then you can run it through your laminator with Decofoil and it is gorgeous.
Thank you so much! Great tips for a laser printer! I am not sure what “wax” stuff you are referring to? Can you tell me where /what time in the video you saw it\them?
@@villagecardandcrafts nothing was missed and I have been wondering how to make this paste! I love saving money and wish I knew how to make all the supplies.
Nice! Do you think Hobby Lobby still has the Master’s Touch Opal Glitter Medium? Would that be by stamping products or by the little bottles of paint, in Hobby Lobby?
That is a silicone media mat. I purchased this one at Hobby Lobby during their clearance sale. However, this is the closest I’ve found to that one. www.amazon.com/sspa/click?ie=UTF8&spc=MTo4MjYzMTU0MTgzODAwNDA2OjE2NjU3MzU3MDk6c3BfYXRmOjIwMDA4NzU5NDMyMzYzMTo6MDo6&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&url=%2FWaffle-Flower-Crafts-WFT001-Water%2Fdp%2FB07RBWDRYC%2Fref%3Dsr_1_1_sspa%3Fcrid%3D4D96JZTGQSO1%26keywords%3Dwaffle%2Bflower%2Bwater%2Bmedia%2Bmat%26qid%3D1665735709%26qu%3DeyJxc2MiOiIyLjg4IiwicXNhIjoiMi4wMSIsInFzcCI6IjEuOTUifQ%253D%253D%26sprefix%3DWaffle%2Bflower%2B%252Caps%252C118%26sr%3D8-1-spons%26psc%3D1%26smid%3DA1C7NZE8JLY3EF
Hi there again, I found it - this was the sentiments you created by printing them out. I love this font and wonder if you could tell me what the name of it is. 😊 Thanks you so much😊😊
Found it! It took a bit of digging but it is called “Winter is Comming”. )yes the last word is misspelled. Im sure I got that from DaFont, but that font name shows something else. Winter Poppins is cute. I’m sure you can find loads of lovely free fonts on that site.
The pine center is 4.5 x 3.5 and the silver center is approx. 4.75x3.5". I usually don't measure though. I just make it fit lol. I'm glad it wasn't too bad up by me. Thank you for watching!
Thank you Ruth. It’s been a while so I’m not sure if I had a microphone back then or not. Hopefully, I’ve corrected any issues by now as I’ve not had anyone mention a concern. I’m sorry you had such difficulty.
As a crafter, I refuse to shop a Hobby Lobby because of their openly homophobic and hateful attacks on our rights.... Would it be possible to list products that do the same thing, but come from another source?
I appreciate your watching and your comments. However, some items (specifically the opal glitter gel) I haven’t found anywhere else. I suppose you could skip that ingredient and use fine glitter. It may have to be thinned out with a little water. The other items are available at Michael’s or Amazon. Happy crafting!
I am only in 4 min and 29 seconds but I had to pause it to say how happy I am to see someone actually use up the product they got out and not just wipe it away.

Hey Wendy, glad y'all weren't affected by Ian. Lost that butter paste!
Hey, Eve! No stencil butter was harmed 😂
I am so glad that you survived Ian.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Great cards, I love the fact that you are thrifty! I’m impressed.
Thank you. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
I print out sentiments on 32# paper. I also make an insert from the same weight paper with verses suitable for the card. Love your videos.

Great cards. I might have used the holo card for ornaments on the tree. Could I substitute glitter pàint for the glitter gel?
