    Love your video! Your tone is super calming and encouraging - I'm trying to get started w/ junk journaling and no idea how just winging it :D It is such a calming activity though. Do you have beginner videos? I'll need to check that out :) Theres so much you can do w/ this genre of creativity! Ah....one thing about me I am working on is that it doesnt need to be perfection, I just have to start. So heres to growth and maturing! :D

My first dog got her in my 30s and named her Katie. Then I found the bronze pup in an antique shop one day and it looks just like Katie. She’s been gone now for about nine years I miss her so much! so that little bronze Katie sits on my craft area and keeps me company and makes me smile. Hope you’re making something that is bringing you much happiness this weekend!

      Hi Kimberly, thank you so much! Did you mean the G stamp? If so, I tried looking those stamps up on the Internet and I can’t find them. They must be discontinued. They’re old I think. They are hero arts brand but when I looked around, they seem to be discontinued…. if you did mean to ask about a “Bee stamp“ I used a cocktail napkin for the bee. I hope you’re enjoying the weekend and doing some lovely crafting for yourself.❤️

      I wholeheartedly agree!! Especially since I want a 12x12 so I can do all the way up to scrapbook paper. I have bought the stuff to DIY one, just haven't done it yet. Plan on doing mostly glycerin with some alcohol. This looks like yet another great way to play with paper until then!!❤

    • @truthspeak9966
      @truthspeak9966 5 місяців тому

      ​@@oneheart19 Most "recipes" for diy gel plates use either 91-7% rubbing alcohol or glycerin as the liquid (instead of water, juice, broth) to mix/hydrate the unflavored gelatin. Glycerin is a preservative, so both should prohibit mold growth. Glycerin is used commercially in many products. Alcohol will continue to off gas (smell like alcohol). If your homemade plate molds you can bread it up into pieces, microwave it to melt it, then re-pour it into your frame(mold aka pan). There are recipes here on UA-cam along with Pinterest. I just realized how confusing this info is without photos/video. 🤣😂 Hopefully it wasn't too confusing. 😁
