    Melanie thank you! I have recently purchased the set of distress inks and have been playing with different techniques. I wasn't having results with smooshing that I was happy with. Then I heard your little tip about smooshing on a craft mat instead of the glass mat...Of course I had a craft mat but being a lazy crafter had never used it. My thought was the glass cleans up easy why put the mat down?? DUH! Really makes a difference with the texture ! Then using the acetate to fill in where needed and Voila the look I love. I also had tried using my betterpress on watercolor plate and hadn't been thrilled with the results. I had always taped on the back and not the corners, helpful! Loved that you kept the smear in, thats exactly the kind of thing that I do.

      HaHaHa, didn't even cross my mind..... My mind tends to always think light to dark when Ink blending. So just naturally went darker with the next stencil. I will think about that next time. Thank you for pointing it out to me. Makes a girl think that is for sure!!! I know in a previous card for the club kits I actually stenciled the sun reflection yellow in the water and it turned green which was also a cool look. Just goes to show every piece can be different..... Just like me forgetting to color in the sun....It still worked. Thank you for visiting and for making me smile my friend.

    Thanks for making HER the right color! It's a pet peeve of mine when they are all bright red. In real life if you see him, you will see her too. Very nice!

    Well Ms Melanie, you have done it again, another beautiful card. I like that you made the male brighter than the female, very realistic. That nust be lovely having Cardinal's in your garden. I'm looking forward to this months subscriptions, lots, including this one can be used all year round. Thank you for sharing with everyone. Xx

      Thank you Sandra. Yes the cardinals are my favorite but I have so many birds in the back yard. I have a small courtyard and then my yard has a wooded area so lots of birds. We have bluejays, Red headed wood peckers, even owls, and so many more. I have an app called Merlin Bird ID and it picks up all their chirps and tells me exactly what is out there singing to me each day. It is so cool!

    What were the copic numbers for the mouse?

    • @melaniestamps
      @melaniestamps 15 днів тому

      I usually use E30's or E50's for the browns (Light, Medium, and a tad a=of dark sometimes) and The odd C's for the greys. I use skin colors E00, E02, maybe some e11 but not too much. Then R20 for the ears and cheeks. This video was quite a long time ago so this is just for memory. Next time I do a house mouse I will list all my colors and make sure I do both colors for you.
