Just watched Justine video and popped over to see what your ideas were like. I'm sure glad I did! so far the first two I've never seen before, and they're amazing. I'm so glad she posted the link. Great job, and thanks so much for sharing! 💕👍 ** Edit**(I should have waited to comment until I watched all of the video! They just keep getting better and better!)
I have been crafting and making cards for over 20 years and I’ve noticed that as we learn new techniques or new styles of cards we forget the older ones, I have literally started redoing my old techniques and styles and modernising them a bit and having great fun. Love this video.😍😍
You are a genius, my friend! Thanks for collaborating with me. Love you! I adore that faux torn paper. I've never done that! Your camera angles are also awesome! I Well I love all the techniques to be honest. I forgot about them all and now I have new video ideas!
OMG....I have gel plates that I've never used because I couldn't figure out how. You have ROCKED MY WORLD with that technique. Also never wound have thought to use the stamps on torn paper. This is gonna be a GREAT weekend of play for me. Glad to met you.
This is the most fun! I had to stop the video and try the kissing technique right away. I had that exact heart stamp and Doodle Garden Background by Catherine Pooler. It was amazing! Thank you!
After watching several videos and seeing see brushes, I found some at a local store and have gone crazy with my brass, metal and plastic stencils....oh my what fun and to get to use my hundreds of tiny brass stencils again after so many years. Love your technique reminders...thanks for sharing!!!
Kathlene, do you adhere your stencils to the paper so they don't bleed under? If so, what do you use? (I see Y.T. vids of people using Distress Ink blending through stencils and am astounded that that technique seems NOT to bleed under!) Thanks for your input.
This is my first time visiting your channel from Justine Hovey's channel and I'm about to nose dive into your videos as a new subscriber as well. I really liked everything! I didn't know that the Versamark could just be left alone on colored cardstock and dry with a deeper shade. I thought that it would just dry clear. Lol And I really liked the multiple ways you showed how to use stencils/stamps. Thank you and have a blessed, crafty day!
Ingrid:Thanks for these reminders, but I must admit the gelli plate/ transparent tape/ stencil/ acrylic paints technique was totally awesome and new to me. Loved all your cards! 😘✨👍🏾
Ingrid Blackburn Thanks Ingrid, but I am still trying to use up my Distress Oxides smooshed backgrounds and the Alcohol ink backgrounds. Too many to venture into another media!
All these techniques are awesome but I really love the torn paper! So simple but so effective and soooo many possibilities! Thank you. Heading over to see Justine’s now ❤️
@@IngridBlackburn unfortunately I can't get things you've linked... I am in England and the postage alone would be enough for me to buy a small studio!!! 😂😂😂 I have tons of acrylic paint anyway, and the wide tape; as I bought a tape gun offer at Christmas and still have 8 rolls left! Just needed the brayer, a gelly plate and some more stencils really... And a few other bits that caught my eye lol! Xxxxx
I've been crafting for decades, started with SB which lead to stamping which lead to card making which lead to mixed media, lol. I was so soooooo impressed with all your techniques, most of them I have never seen before. I especially liked the gel printing on tape, I have wanted to get into gel plates, but don't want to invest a ton, you know what I mean... lol. I also loved the scene card with all the water marks & embossing, it was stunning. I have happily subscribed to your channel. I, personally, would love to see a mixture of mixed media cards & mixed media projects.
Wow Ingrid, I loved all the techniques but I think my favourite was the one with the gel plate and the strips of tape. That was so effective on the card xx
Popped over from Justine..love...love the gel pad technique...I had never seen this...the results were beautiful! I had forgotten a few of these but am getting ready to do a scene with embossing💕 Thank you for sharing your talents!
Lol before I actually watched either video I saw Justines title too and was so bewildered that 2 people would be doing the same topic the same day... within hours of each other... and then I watched the video and it was all explained... I'm a dork sometimes lol. Great tips and I learned something new which is always excellent time spent. Thanks for sharing.
Great ideas Ingrid! My favourite, only because I need knew this title tip, and it will save me so much wasted everything is.... the tip that you gave us with honour snowman,. I never knew that tip about only inking up the part of the stamp that you missed. It's like duh! I should have known that because it makes perfect sense, but I did not. Thanks! And I loved the idea with the gel plate and the tape. So neat!
I just ran across this particular video and just love your energy!! To Me... What makes you different is that you are happy ABOUT go into detail and are GENUINELY interested in the products you are using & Your work is just is beautiful!! I love that you and so excited about the AMAZING PRODUCTS you are using!!! You ROCK💎! I get so much joy from living vicariously through you. I know I won't ever be fortunate enough to purchase items featured in your exquisite Creative Grove, but a gal like me is so blessed to have found your TH-cam channel. I don't want to to sound creepy. I just thought that it was a nice to here a TH-camr sound so genuine and I give credit when credits due. Your video helped me not feel so depressed. God Bless You🌻🦋thank you again
Gretchen Kinsey beautifully said!! I feel the same way. I know the struggles of $$ with all the products .. I just build & build my supplies .. Verrrry gradually (except the ones that winter necessarily keep, like ink pads) Have a great rest of the week , & enjoy your weekend☀️✌️☺️
I LOVED this tutorial. So much jammed packed in it. I always wondered what to do when I dropped an ink pad on my paper as I have improvised or ruined a nice project several times. I am so glad Justine collaborated with you as I never saw your channel before. Whoo HOO!! The question I have is an ink question. We have oxides and distress, we have versamark and Stazon. We have momento and Altenew but Catherine pooler ink I have been wondering about for just regular stamping as you did in the video. Each brand has its own “thing” but because I am thinking of investing heavily in new color inks I’m hard pressed to decide which brand to go with. what is your take on Poolers inks? Thank gobs! My favorite of your techniques is the torn edged one.
Ingrid Blackburn Wow that’s a lot to think about re CPI. She has a huge assortment of colors which is intriguing. I heard mentioned by someone on line that said Lawn Fawn and a couple others, SSS , are all from the same manufacturer so there prob isn’t much difference. You said CP were translucent so the color would alter a bit when stamped on color cardstock? (I don’t mean to bug you but I’m trying to figure this out.). Lol. GK seems to be a nice ink but I don’t see many people on TH-cam using it or the stamping up brand. Thanks again for helping me!
Very intuitive! I learned several helpful techniques. i.e, making with paper towels, kissing from large stamp, stenciling as well as the extra powder on stamping/embossing mistakes. GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU! 😊🥰
I love the tip about heating embossing powder from the back first. I've been scrapbooking for almost 25 years and that's one I've never heard! New subscriber, thanks so much! I'm teaching a card making class to our homeschool co-op kids this semester.
Wow these videos are just what I needed. I have been crafting my own occasion cards for friends and family the past 5 years and I’m always looking for way to up my game. Your videos are so informative and have brought a new element to my crafting. I look forward to seeing your video dedicated for embossing. That is something that I have struggled with and I would love to perfect the skill.
Oh wow how cool❣️I think my fave was the second technic you preformed I think you referred to a Washi tape technic💖but really I love them all❣️✨ how can you not ❣️❣️😊✨🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great Video, I am in awe of your Christmas scene, I'm like holding my breath as you add more, and thanks for showing how to fix the mistake, no way can I do this, but enjoyed watching you do it, It's so Amazing. Thanks for all the techniques.
Thank you for the technique reminders, I often forget as well! I’d never tried the ‘faux torn paper’ before (very cool) but wanted to let you know how I ‘tweaked’ it a bit... after stamping image on my card front with black archival ink, I went back over it with embossing ink & powder...I’m a sucker for heat embossing! Then I wanted to fill the blank margins by adding/blending bohemian colors that would match my pre-cut sentiment (without losing the torn look) so I flipped the torn pieces over and used em’ as masks (matching respective sides). I wanted the white card stock to still look crisp showing through the black ink of my stamped image...and WOW! So thanx again for the ‘igniting idea’ to one of the coolest lookin’ cards (for teen birthday) I’ve made in a long time, it was a lot of fun!
Ooh, that sounds so cool! Do you have it posted on social media somewhere? I'd love to see! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and popping back by to comment! 😁😁🎨
I haven't looked at any Gel Plate techniques for quite a while and this is great! Love the expertise in how you narrate what you are doing. Really locks my attention throughout the video.

Wow!! The tape on the jelly plate trick is incredible!! Turns out so beautiful!!
The mono printing with packing tape is my favourite, it's also a new one for me, or rather the packing tape part.
OMG....I have gel plates that I've never used because I couldn't figure out how. You have ROCKED MY WORLD with that technique. Also never wound have thought to use the stamps on torn paper. This is gonna be a GREAT weekend of play for me. Glad to met you.
This really got my creative juices going!!! Loved the kiss technique and your wonderful use of stensils! Will be needing more of those!!!
Thanks! What fun getting to visit with you again!
Ingrid, I've never seen the first 3 techniques and I have to say the first one is probably my favourite!
Love the double stencil technique. Thanks for showing all of the techniques.
Love these techniques, some I knew a few I never thought of. Thank you.
Great techniques! I have never seen the first and second ones, so thank you for sharing them.
This is the most fun! I had to stop the video and try the kissing technique right away. I had that exact heart stamp and Doodle Garden Background by Catherine Pooler. It was amazing! Thank you!

Found you for the first time today. Thank you for all the ideas. Definitely want to invest in a gel plate!
Justine sent me over!! Thanks for sharing with us!
I loved the faux tape idea.
I love the tape on gel plate, kissing technique, and the torn paper technique!
How fun to see straight simple technique videos! You and Justine gave us so many great ideas. Thank you.
I just love all of these techniques. Can’t wait to try the tape on my gelli plate.
I love seeing you use the stencils and the gelli plates, I have both but rarely pull them out! Also the heat embossing tips!
thank you for showing us how you 'fixed' a mistake :) i often just throw away and start again! this helps me save a project
Awesome techniques,now I just need to remember to use them too !
All these techniques are awesome but I really love the torn paper! So simple but so effective and soooo many possibilities! Thank you. Heading over to see Justine’s now ❤️
Most of these techniques I’ve never seen before, thanks!
Glad you like them! They are definite go to techniques! Thanks for watching!! 😀😀🎨
I have never done any of these! They're all new to me! I always wondered what a gelly plate was for! 😁
@@IngridBlackburn oh I love them! I'm filling an eBay basket as we speak... 😁😁😁

Like the hint to heat embossing from the back of the cardstock, great idea!
Lots of good ideas I particularly like the torn paper cards.
Love the tape application. New to Gelli. Can't wait to try
Ooh, I'm so happy your video popped up. I've got that very stamp and completely forgot about it. It's time that stamp was revived. Great cards. ❤
Thank you.Like you, I didn't think my attempts would come to anything,but pleased with the "washi tape" idea and made a card with the strips.😊
Absolutely loved the last card!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!
Liked the Torn Paper and Partial Stenciling-just learned from you. Thank you.
