Make a Greeting Card That’s Also a Beautiful Piece of Art 🎨
Wow. First timer for me and new subscriber. Currently unwell lying in bed with Covid and this came up on my feed ❤. It’s a stunningly beautiful process and I love the outcome. Thank you so much for putting such great content out here for us to enjoy x
You’re welcome 🌸 feel better soon 💐
Really enjoying your videos! Could you explain to a newbie how you stop the pages from sticking together?
Sure, just be sure the pages dry before you shut the book! Or use a hairdryer to speed up the process. That’s why I like to work on several books at a time - so I don’t have to wait to paint
Fabulous art and a great tour through your sketchbooks. Thanks for sharing.
I want to know steps for collaging over a blank greeting card that already has a printed image
Do you varnish them before placing on the card?
I use a uv spray to seal it and protect it amzn.to/3Zzpg5F
You’re quite good at video production and editing. ❤
I appreciate that
Ok I’m getting them. I had purchased the Kwik Stix several years ago for my 3 and 1 yr old g-babies, but I didn’t get to play with them much. They did make some beautiful art with them, but I’m kinda thinking the shuttle art brand might be a bit better! Does anyone have any feedback on whether or not that’s true?
These seem to be the juiciest so far!
I LOVE THIS! My daughter is homeschooling her 9, 7, and 4 year olds, and this would make such a great art class collab using all 3 of their prior works into one unified piece! And then the masterpiece gets hung. LOVE IT! ❤
That's a great 💡 idea
Idk why as artist’s we sometimes flee from color theory discussions/teachings. This must have been on auto play since I had earlier finished one of your videos. But I just wanted to say, you did a good job, gave some info I didn’t know, and you were cute with it. So was your cat. 🤗
Thank you! I’m always learning about color
I L O V E these! Thank you for generously sharing your process! 🤗
I just came across your channel and I’m so excited to watch all of your videos! You are one of the most inspiring artists!!!!😊🙌🏼
Hi! I’m glad you found my channel 🌸🌸
wow. this was a great video. i cant tell you how much this normalized the feelings of doubt, inadequacy feeling like my work is not good enough to call myself an artist. It is one of the only pieces i have seen where you honestly share your thoughts and process and in the end,, can still step back and say, you dont like it but it might still have life left. Coming along on this ride was inspiring for me and so i thank you.
Yay! That’s what I hope for
16:20 So funny, and such a great comment! Such great advice in this video! Thanks Blake
You’re welcome ☺️
So inspirational! Thanks, Blake!
Beautiful start to your new series💙
Blake, u should chill out more and share your large scall painting process. That'll be fun!
Beautiful.
You are seriously so inspiring 😊🙏❤️ Feeling lost and tired but now I’ve set my alarm so I can get up earlier and have some fun here too!!
🖤🤍🖤
What a terrific video! And I like your painting! Thank you for sharing/posting.
This video is magical. And the art 💙
Pure poetry for my soul 🩵💙 thanks and congrats for this Amazing asmr format and artwork clever process 🌊🫶🏻
Great video! The ocean theme was a wonderful choice! Thanks for the experience!
Stunning! Haven’t been to the sea for years. But I was back there both in the vid and your art. Thanks and best r
What an interesting video! Well done.
Love it! ❤
The quality of this video is fantastic. I love ! It’s my colors, my theme , the sea, the sounds, the lights and a wonderful poem 😊.You make my Sunday in France 😊😊 Thank you.
It is always worth the wait until your next video.
how fun, thanks for sharing
My motto is ‘Enjoy the Process’ I loved the outcome.
I have to constantly remind myself that it’s more about practice 🌸🌸

Thank you, Stacey 🌷🌷I’d love to see your work
Lend 1. grant to (someone) the use of (something) on the understanding that it shall be returned. In most places that have the neighborhood lending libraries the books are meant to be returned for others to enjoy reading and looking through.
What a gloriously creative idea! Thanks for sharing with us.
You’re welcome ☺️
Hey come organize my basement studio!! ( :^)
I’d like to see your studio!
@@KitchenCounterAbstract will invite you to it soon.
Beautiful! I paint a lot on paper and was wondering how you would frame because in like your style❤
Where did you buy the frame?
Wow. This is probably the coolest video I've seen in a long time. So much talent in one home! Thank you both for sharing your thoughts and ideas and giving us so much inspiration!
Glad you enjoyed it 🥰
What a treat your video! Full of information. I love words too. I have listened to the link twice which is so cool! This abacadabra of words is truly a delight to create. Thank you so much for sharing all the links and background information. Beautiful words and cards. Subscribed!
Oh and I sense you gonna love the Voyager Tarot Deck from James Wainless. He is still alive and I joined 2 workshops by him. It was so positive, inspirational and fun!
I will check them out, thank you 😊
I don't think I'd take a book from the Little Lending Library or a book that is in good shape to be bought to be read. I would tend to get books that were going to be thrown away or perhaps text books that are outdated.
Gorgeous! Loved all of this and feel very inspired! ❤
Glad you liked it 🔥
Love them! ❤
Thank you 🌷
Love watching an artist experiment and play with materials, pushing them to see what they're capable of. Thanks for sharing!
Of course! My pleasure 😇
Love your art. Thanks for the visual pleasure 😊
You’re welcome 🌸🌸
beautiful work, thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome ☺️
Blake, you rock!
🙏🏻 thanks. So do you 😎
Do you sell your work?
I’m currently setting up my website with a shop. But if there’s anything you like on my Instagram page blakecake8, just ask
Use water with the chalk pastels!
Have you tried the Charvin water soluble chalks also?
Especially love that last piece you created "just messing around for a few minutes"!
Thank you @nancyfern8044 💐
It’s all about the layers isn’t it?
Yes! 🍰
For even more transparent collage pieces try medical Exam paper (cheap). Transfer , print whateve you desire, spray with water and affix with gel medium (or my beloved liquid starch). This med exam paper is almost wet strength tissue paper. Enjoy!
Interesting- can I get that online somewhere?
Using rubbings as collage material is a fantastic idea. I'm going to go out tomorrow to make as many rubbings as I can!
Can’t wait to see what you come up with! Kitchencounterabstract@gmail.com
