  • Today, I made a simple autumn card and answered lots of your questions about all things ink blending! I know that it can be challenging at times so I reviewed the basics of ink blending and talked about how to choose colors that blend well along with some tips and tricks for the smoothest blend possible. Thank you so much for joining me! And remember the color circle and never skip more than one color when blending!

    Bristles are NOT all the same and they matter when it comes to smooth ink blending. It’s good that you’re explaining the brushes.

    A family member requested a sunset card and I realized that I needed to get up to speed fast on ink blending. I watched your video from beginning to "blend" and can't wait to give it a try! ;) Thanks so very much for all of the information you share. I think you could turn any novice cardmaker into a better than horrible cardmaker with your shared experience and knowledge. So grateful!

    I didn’t realize this is what I need! Thanks so much for this! I’ve never heard about how to use proper colors and blend them together. I learned Roy G Biv in freshman college class in astronomy😁. Don’t remember much else. Thanks for the humor & greta music Tom. You two are a great blend🤗

  • @shawndavis7862
    @shawndavis7862 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you. This was a wonderful explanation of color theory. After 20 years of copying color recipes, I really feel empowered to create my own with your clear illustration of a color wheel, changing the traditional primary wheel to other palettes.

    You are awesome, Gina! Your explanation of the color wheel was the best! I would love to see more color “blendable” videos on your TH-cam channel as I do not do Facebook either. Love Tom and his words of the day...priceless! Wanted to let you know that I am watching your TH-cam videos while I am walking on my treadmill.....makes the time go by faster...I am getting a twofer....watching and walking...can’t be that! Take care and have a great weekend!

    They can't be made to themselves but---they together give off all other secondary colors.

    My skin color has cool tones, so that’s what I gravitate towards in my stamping. I use the royal colors a lot. I always choose pink over salmon or peach. Thank you for making the color wheel with warm tone ink cubes! It helps me to understand where I need to experiment. My mom has a lot of warm tones in her skin, so she likes to use peach and salmon. Now I can make a card in her fave colors.
