From trash to treasure: crafting little tokens of love
Join me as I explore the transformative power of creativity and kindness. In this video, I'll show you how I breathe new life into discarded scraps, turning overlooked waste into heartfelt tokens of appreciation.
This project embodies my personal ethos of:
• Finding beauty in the overlooked
• Valuing sustainability through upcycling
• Cultivating mindfulness and gratitude
• Connecting with my community's unsung heroes
In a world of mass production and disposable culture, I've discovered how handmade gestures can create ripples of positivity. These small 'Thank You' tokens remind me that with imagination and compassion, I can craft value from virtually nothing.
Come along on my journey of mindful creation, where every brushstroke and paper scrap becomes a vehicle for expressing gratitude to the invisible workers who keep our world running smoothly.
I hope to inspire you to redefine waste, spread joy, and build a more appreciative society-one tiny masterpiece at a time.
I'd love to hear from you: How do you turn 'nothing' into something meaningful in your life?

Too fast
Love your design and colour palette. I don’t always think of the Distress range as provide bright and rich shades as there’s that slight ‘grunge’ element. I really love the way you composed this beautiful card ❤.
Thank you! I think there are plenty of colors in there to make what one wants to with them. I skew bright more than vintage distress 🥰
Does condensation from a cup or glass ruin the laminated print?
It doesn’t. I just wiped it off right after, though.
Hi Mansi. How are you? It’s been a. While. I’m in chattanooga At the APC expo
Hi Loretta, I'm doing well! How have you been? How's the expo going?
❤❤❤
Thank you!
💚💚💚
Thank you!
I have stumbled onto the most fabulous videos! Your energy is so calming and uplifting; and I am amazed by your talents. After what I can only describe as a marvelous magic show, I just ordered a gel plate . I cannot wait to explore!
Thank you so much for your kind words. It’s all just playful experimentation where one thing leads to another and there are no wrong answers or paths 🥰 I hope you enjoy your adventures with the gel plate! ❤️

Yay, thank you!
Got skill? Got talent?
Skill comes from practice and is learnable and talent is the rate at which you can acquire a skill 🥰 I think questioning if you have either or both is simply procrastination ☺️
Love this Mansi! Its absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing! ❤
Thanks so much, Bonnie. Art should never bring stress 😊
❤❤❤

Thank you! I was so proud of this!

Thanks! So easy to do!
That is DARLING!
Thank you. This was a very emotional and empowering course to film! I love my little books!
@@MansiMakes They're absolutely AMAZING!
Thanks, Mansi! I'm excited to get my room messy with my Gelli plate trials!
Woohoo! Have so much fun!
That turned out to be really cool, once we saw it in the light!
Thank you!
What a beautiful journal. I love the bright colors. I have a stamp & stencils designed by you for Maker Forte. It resembles the people and swirls in your journal. They may be from that. I look forward to seeing what you create next.❤
Oh thank you! I appreciate your kind words and your purchase of my stamps and stencils!
I 💗your process!
Thank you!
In case I haven't mentioned it before, I just adore your tiny dots, and think they add SO MUCH!
The dots have a way of bringing it all together 🥰
@@MansiMakes I agree!
Mansi, I know you prefer Princeton brushes, can you remind me of what KIND and the sizes, please.
Size 2 and 4 are my go to brushes.
@@MansiMakes Great, and what KIND of Princeton brushes - they have tons of different categories? Thank you!
Sorry I missed that you had asked what kind@@funnydogmom . This is the one I use: amzn.to/3UJ1rGj
Mansi, I tried to find her stamp called Inner Faces (I have one other stamp from her) but I don't think it's available now. I was so bummed! Your art is ALWAYS beautiful!
Thank you! I think she started focusing on making stencils which are also beautiful!
I love how you assign personality characteristics to your drawings! (I do that too!)
Well, if they’re faces they gotta have personalities attached to them 😜
NOW, I want to eat them! ALL of them!
lol! Trust me we went to a bakery right after I finished painting these 😂
@@MansiMakes Ha!
Mansi, what is a glaze pen? THIS WAS EXCELLENT!
Thank you. It leaves a shine behind and gives a raised effect that’s almost 3D
@@MansiMakes Thank you!
You did GREAT on this!
Thank you for the encouragement. It was quite the struggle and I think it was because I saw a UA-cam video of someone painting it and then inadvertently wanted to paint like them 🥰
This is darling!
Oh my gosh! So many memories from when I was just starting out. I still have this one 🥰
It looks SO GREAT!
Thank you! I am thrilled with it ❤️
@@MansiMakes As you should be!!!
Maybe I should have said "flip." O love your hair when the ends kind of flip out! Does that make any more sense?
lol. Yes. I don’t like it 😂
@@MansiMakes Okay. (I think it's adorable!)
I LOVED this video!!! ❤❤❤ This is the first thing I saw of yours!
Near and dear to my heart. Thank you ☺️
Mansi, do the plastic pages require any kind of fixative? Thanks in advance!
I don’t use any fixatives on these… just some Dorland’s wax medium to protect them from sticking to each other.
@@MansiMakes PERFECT! Thanks for the info!
