Well, I just bumped into your channel. Serendipity. I’m having so much fun watching you. I don’t make cards, I make Junk Journals. I love your craft papers for junk journals. So much color. And I love crumpled papers! Did you say you’re kinda new with your UA-cam channel? You’d never know it. I’m maybe your newest subscriber. But I give it 2 minutes and someone else will be joining you too. Lol♥️♥️♥️
Edit: There were 2.4K views on this video!!! Come on people! He deserves a thousand or so of you to subscribe. Lol. I hope word of mouth spreads around for you! Loved your cards.
Omgosh! You are so sweet! Thank you so much! Yes just been on UA-cam since like November but just having so much fun with it! Even love editing the videos and learning all that too!!
They are amazing little pieces of art! I'm glad you came across. The best part of playing is that you never know what you will create!
Thank you!☺️
Loved the video. Great idea to use the brown packing paper. I seriously think you should at least take some time and lay the new pieces you made today on 5 x 6.5 or 5 x 7 cards. Leave them alone for a day or two. Make some more brown paper "smooshers" (I just made that up, can you tell???) or play with some other crafty items. Look at those "on the side" pieces every now and then. After you've looked at them for a day or two, then decide. Do you still want to cut them for an A2 or go for it and use both full size pieces on bigger cards? If it were me, I KNOW I would be sorry if I cut them to fit an A2 card just for the sake of making an A2 card. You don't have to follow card size rules! I'm anxious to see more as I too am digging today's "smooshers"! Right on!
Great suggestion! Thanks. Plus I have so much packing paper so bigger sizes would be great.
Great video. I appreciate your beginner take on these processes. More please! I'm a beginner with mixed media, too
Thanks for watching!
I enjoyed your comments and demonstration. Yay, you!
@@elainecrowe8647 thank you! Thanks for watching too!!☺️
Great job and kudos to you for stepping out of your comfort zone.
Thank you! Thank you!!!
Excellent tutorial. What a terrific way to recycle & reuse materials that would normally go into a landfill. Thanks for sharing!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you! And thanks for watching too. Much appreciated.
Great idea to use the craft paper that would otherwise be trashed👏👏👏 beautiful cards!!!
Thank you! Plus I just love Kraft paper so I couldn’t throw it away! Ha!!
I saw a similar technique of inking scrap pieces of paper on a video. She puts them into a used shoebox and spreads several inks and sprays on her offcuts. This helps reduce the waste on the inks. Very vibrant and eye catching colors.
Oh!! Like put all in the box at the same time and the. Spray rather than each one by itself you mean? Or put them in and inks and sprays and then smooshes them around? Spose could try both!
@ManleyMadeMinute Yes put them all in a shoebox. Use what ever you chose. She just adds all of her offcuts scraps in the box and choses her sprays. Also left over water from cleaning the watercolor brush is used as a spray as well on lighter pieces to add dimension.
Outstanding job on these ink smooshed cards! Love them!
:) Thank you so much!! Much appreciated. Thanks watching too!
Great inspiration for all of us! Thank you!
Wow! Thank you so very much!
First time watching you. Love your cards. Beautiful.
thank you so so much!
You’re a great teacher! Thank you for your detailed descriptions of the products you’re using. So happy this video popped up this morning.
Thank you! I am just 😮😮😮 this video is taking off. Thank you for watching! Definitely working on my next mixed media card. Any suggestions on products encouraged!
I get my books from the Thrift stores and yard sales. If they don't look old, coffee and tea stain them. I like your video. It has unique ideas.
I found these books at an antique store. 4 for $15! Thank you so much!!
@@ManleyMadeMinute I find boxes at yard sales for $5.😉
Really liked your ideas with the mixed media and in a different way I had to take my craft wrapping out of recycle inside . Will definitely have a go your way - thank you for inspiration
Love it!!! Dumpster diving!
Love this. You have a great way of teaching. Your cards were amazing
Thank you!😃
You are doing great!
Thank you! Thanks for watching and the sweet compliment. Just having some fun! :)
I just found your channel and I love that you are using the packaging, I save the packaging and I will be trying this also. Awesomeness!
Thank you!!!!
This was such a great idea. Came out great.😊
Thank you!!!!! Thanks for watching too!
I love the techniques you've used here Shawn. My supply of "manly" cards has depleted over the past weeks and l've been looking on UA-cam for inspiration. Your video is a stand out and l can’t wait to try out your ideas.
Have a beautiful day, Barbara 🐨🇦🇺🦘
Thank you so much for watching and the compliment.
love the colors
Thanks! Don’t get out my distress near enough!
Love your process!
Thank you so much!
Came across your video and appreciate your taking the time to explain and show variations you have done. May I suggest when drying paper with the heat tool you hold it up off of the mat, it should dry faster😊
Just found you! You are very good at teaching and demonstrating! Can’t wait to see more
Thank you so much!!! Having fun with it!
Very nice instruction!
Thank you so very much!!
I’m just getting started in mixed media as well. Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! I am “forcing” myself to do more. Lol
Nice instructional video. Moves right along. I like that you didn't talk over background music. New subscriber
❤❤thank you so much!!!
I’m a new subscriber also. You popped up on my homepage just this morning. I guess I’m going to spend some time today to watch all your previous videos. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching too!!
Great video, I loved it! Thank you for the great tip.
Thanks for watching!! Appreciate it!
Just found your channel. A super make!!! Have subscribed 😊
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I just found you and I'm enjoying all your videos and going through all of them. Great content and I'm learning a lot! 💕
Thank you so much!!!!❤
Thank you so much for a great video🎉
You are such an inspiring artist.
Thank you! Thank you!!!
The overly dark focal cluster rectangle you can re-stamp with clear embossing ink and cover with white embossing or gold embossing powder! Don’t cut it or throw it away Shawn?!/Sean?! New to your channel. Great cards made; thanks for posting!! 🎉✨💜
Thanks for the awesome tip! Shawn. Lol
oh wow just found you just searching thru, love, love these!!! new subscriber now ;)
Hi there! I'm new to your channel, but love what I'm seeing! I've seen the crumpled craft paper under tags & journal cards, but not on greeting cards! (I do both.) I have the sprays, but not the ink pads. Or the glass mat! That'll be in the future! Thanks for showing us something cool!!
Thank you!!! Thanks for watching too!!
Enjoyed watching you just experiment 🎉 You might want to try TH's Distress Glaze. Seals the ink while brightening the colors. No dry time, no tools and no clean up. Surface will be ready for whatever you plan next - stamping, writing, painting, collaging etc. Thx again
Oh!!! Ok gonna have to look for that? Any other suggestions for great mediums to use especially for texture??
@@ManleyMadeMinute I'm on a budget so instead of texture pastes I add baby powder/ talc to what ever paint I'm used. You can make it as thick or subtle as you want. Works great for me. I also use lots of "bits" those pieces of everything that you just have to keep, "in case". Thx for the reply, you're a doll. Just watched your watercolor video great stuff.
I love the heat tool, as it is not only hot, it’s quiet! I will add fluid matte medium onto a gel plate and press my inked paper into it, keeping it from smearing. Love your examples. . I wanted something fun to do this evening and this project fits the bill, so thanks for the inspiration, Shawn. (Is this the correct spelling?). BTW, I avoid distress inks for stamping for the obvious reason. In addition to Archival inks, you may want to try Versafine or Versafine Claire inks, for they are great with showing detail with some stamps. Keep on playing and experimenting. You’ve got this! I need to go dumpster diving, so I could find such a perfect weight! LOL I have a very heavy old book….
Thank you!!! I have one versafine and one moment and live them! I definitely need to get some more mediums for mixed media stuff! Playing with what I have! Ha! Love scrapping and upcycling!
Lots of inspiration and beautiful cards! Thanks so much!
Thank you!
If you place distress glaze over the piece it will remove the chalky look from the piece… kinda like Vaseline 😂 Loved your vid and cards created. Thank you, your new subbie!! 🎉✨💜👍🏾
Thanks! I need to get this glaze stuff! Several have recommended.
People who are learning are so much fun to watch. They have energy! And ideas! Your finished cards are little works of art. So glad you didn't mess them up by plopping on a sentiment. A thought on card size: A2 cards are the size the craft industry has married itself to because it fits standard American paper. It's not exactly a luxury size. Make big cards! Handmade cards should feel like a gift, substantial in the hand and on display. You will never regret making larger sizes.
Good thought.
Thank you!! I debated in sentiment but was like… I nowhere to put it with out covering up to much ha. Thanks for watching and finding my channel!
I agree, I personally like A6, A7 and I LOVE 5x5's. I never understood making a tiny A2 card, it takes the same amount of work. When I send or give one away, I want them to be able to see it!
Congratulations on your video. Tiffany Solorio jas very inspirational videos for mixed media. You may enjoy her videos. TFS your inspiration
Thank you for the tip!
Great new videos!
Enjoyed your video. Keep going!!
❤️thank you!!
I really like the idea going to try it
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Looks great!
Thank you!!!
Hi , just found your channel. I was hooked as soon as I saw what you were doing. Suggestion, you also could use your finished fronts to die cut pieces from them ,examples, flowers and leaves or trees. Then arrange on the front of your card base. Either way, love what your making. Tfs. Sherry from Canada 🇨🇦.
Great suggestion! Thank you. Thanks for watching too.
Just found your channel. Great video….new subscriber.
Thanks a bunch!!!!!
I have been a stamper for 35 years. I like your technique a lot.
You would benefit greatly if you "conditioned" your stamps. They would hold more ink and you wouldn't have to stamp 3-4 times to get a crisp dark image. And buy refills to keep your pads juicy as well. Dry pads suck. LOL
Thanks for the great tips!!!!
loved these!! new sub here. enjoying your videos!!😊
Thank you so much!
Hi Shawn. My name is Linda. UT served up this video and I am so glad it did. I couldn't stop watching it. TFS. I create handmade junk/art journals and sell on Etsy also, LL Creations Studio.
I was wondering if you would be interested in creating journaling cards, ATC in different themes than your greeting cards and sell on Etsy for the rest of us to purchase and use in our journals? I am interested in Sabby Chic, Botanicals and most of all Gothic. I know and realize these themes would be all new colors and themes for you. But would certainly broaden your customer base.
Thanks you and again I liked your teaching style and liked and sign up as a new subbie. Hugs Linda
I am so sorry, have never scrapbooked so what are journaling cards? Thank you for watching too BTW!
You did fantastic! Just subscribed to your channel! Loved your vulnerability and giving confidence to those who may feel the same! Loved this technique and will definitely be doing!!! Thanks!
☺️thank you so very much!!
Happy your channel just popped up on my home feed. These are great! I’m a gonna try it now! Did you ask about card sizes in your video? I see comments discussing sizes but don’t recall if you asked 🤔 Regardless, I think the card should match your art rather than making your art fit a specific card size. Whether tiny weenie or extra large or anything in between, I think people should make it how they want it. I personally like yours as you did them. Now off I go into the rabbit hole of your previous videos 😂
No didn’t mention sizes but great point as I think I have only made a couple cards that weren’t A2. Definitely have to try it more! Thanks for watching!
You did great! I am just now learning mixed media now, got a gel plate the other day, I need to practice with that. New sub.
Thank you so much! Would love to see what you create with gel plate! Haven’t gone down that road yet!
@@ManleyMadeMinutehaha, I'm wondering if it is a slippery slope!
These are great. I’m a newbie at this. I absolutely love the mixed media look but I’m terrified of trying it out.
Same here! Just go for it!!
Juste to help you with your ils pages books alter you stick your papier put clear geso on top then you will be able to water put ink or what ever your design need😊
Oh! Thank you for the tip! What is geso?? Will have to find it! Thanks for watching.
For the love of Lilies; it is MOD podge; not modge podge.
lol!!! I do that every single time too!!!!
