loved the videos. I don't have ANY Tim Holtz products, but come Friday I will be hitting the stores or scrapbook.com for products. Very inspiring. Glad to meet you!
I love texture paste! I like to just cover my canvas and take a foam stamp and stamp it, or just use different palette knives to create texture, it works well for making waves in a water scene, and of course its great for stencils! The thing I learned from this video that gave me that Aha! moment was the transparent paste fades the inks. I started to just use acrylic paints over transparent paste because the color would not stay. Especially with spray inks. Even after painting a layer of Gesso. So, now I know to get the matte paste.
you all prolly dont give a damn but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid forgot my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Kole Justin thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Too bad I already have plenty of modeling paste. I'd love to order some of these pastes, but gotta use up what I have first. I guess I could use gesso over the pastes I have to make them take color the same are the paper. I guess I can use clear embossing powder on top of the pastes I have for more of a resist effect. Thanks for sharing!
Ok, wait a minute - I have the Ranger Heat It Craft Tool. I'm so, so new to EVERYTHING crafting including embossing powder. I purchased the heat tool as I'd seen it demoed in a ton of tutorials (the ONLY way I'm getting any education). So as soon as it came in, I ripped into the clamshell and quickly did the whole embossing thing; embossing ink, powder, etc. With my untrained eye I watched, in amazement, the powder melt. I was very excited having completed my first ever embossing!! Yay!?! Now I'm confused - did I really emboss my stamped image using my heat tool? It looks and feels embossed. I should say I was a little concerned when I first turned it on, because not a lot of air/power generated from the tool, but I thought this was how it was supposed to work. Oh, it also melts plastic pretty darn good! LOL! Does anyone use it for drying other media or to speed up drying time for their various projects? Sorry this is so long! Thanks in advance for any help or advice!
+ScrapTimeVideos What is the difference between this snazzy "tool" and say...a $4 hair dryer or heat gun? The same with the $4 an ounce, texture paste when a half gallon of plaster of paris is less than $4?
Hi! I'm really not that qualified to answer, but I'll try:-) a hairdryer would first, blow powder everywhere and secondly, it doesn't get hot enough to melt embossing powder. The Tim Holtz heat it tool is the same as a heat gun, it's just more quiet and blows less forcefully, plus it's kinda cute LOL! Hope this helps!
+k knowles Yes - a hair dryer doesn't get hot enough and would blow the powder every where. A heat gun would work as well, but I have never seen one for $4. This heat tool diffuses heat and works great for drying paint as well. Plaster of Paris is an industrial material. If you want to use it, go ahead. However, artist materials are made to hold up for the smaller projects we do.
Took forever to find the Tim Holtz heat gun. Finally found and bought one and realized the same thing. It doesn't work with embossing powder, well not very well. But, luckily my Husband says at least I have the correct tool for each product!
Paula Roehl-Johnson Yeah, I didn't know the difference between the two styles of heat tools. I had the longer one, then I wanted Tim's heat tool because it is so quiet and doesn't blow stuff all over the place. So, I bought Tim's and gave my long, ebossing tool, I believe it was a Marvey or something, away. Big mistake. I mean, it's not like Tim's heat tool is bad for embossing, I manage quite well, but I like having the right tool for the job.
The inks will be re-activated by another medium. So the colour of the spray will blend with your next level. So I wouldn't recommend them if you plan to do more layers.
These pastes won't help with foil. But The Crafter's Workshop now has a Tacky-When-Dry Gel Medium and Thermoweb has a Duo Paste that work with foils without heat.
I don't think so. I think the paste would stick to the silk. But test it on a small piece to see what happens. Just make sure it is a screen you no longer want.
I am probably repeating myself here and so I apologize in advance! I create mixed media pieces and also just plain ol' acrylic paintings on canvas, canvas panels, and canvas paper. How could I use distress inks, stencils, and the texture paste on canvas? These things aren't going to work on a gessoed panel or canvas paper, are they? Would I need to cover the gessoed surface with something else? Please answer soonest as I am hoping to buy some Ranger art supplies and try some mixed media stuff for a big collage. Thanks!
The texture pastes can be used over acrylic. Think Molding Paste. Same idea. Distress Inks can't be used over acrylic - think watercolour paints. But there are distress paints that are a thin acrylic paint that would work. Tim also has Distress Crayons that work with gesso. I have a few videos of the crayons you can watch.
I use them over Gesso all the time. I even use Gesso over the texture paste. I use acrylic paints, inks, and everything else over it too! I like to take texture palette knives after covering a canvas with texture paste and just run them through it. It makes an amazing textured background if you don't want to mess with stencils.
why do people keep the melt pot videos on you tube, when the pot is discontinued...I looked so hard and looked and looked for one there was only one on ebay for 100.00 USD...would really love to have one
I love everything Tim Holtz, and his fabric is fantastic! I am going to make a vintage quilt!!
Thanks for all your CHA 2015 videos. I think I've watched them all.

Yes - you did emboss! However, the Heat It tool also works great for drying different mediums, such as paints, when you are doing a mixed media piece.

+E-4-eclectic Actually..it did help. You answered my question, TY.
Lovely thanks for sharing

If you work with any paints or mediums you will be using it a lot though! I use it daily in my creating!

I just watched your texture paste demo...did you try drying it from the back of the paper ?
can I use the texture paste on plastic and then use acrylic paint?
A lot of Texture Paste are still acrylic based, so they may still chip off of plastic. I would try a sample first.
@@ScrapTimeVideos Thank you
Can you paint with acrylic paint!
Of course. How ever, Tim's paints are very thin. So, depending what you are trying to paint, they may not be the best choice.
can we use the ink sprays on a canvas; any first layers needed. :) TFS!
The inks will be re-activated by another medium. So the colour of the spray will blend with your next level. So I wouldn't recommend them if you plan to do more layers.
Can I transfer foil using the texture paste by pressing?
These pastes won't help with foil. But The Crafter's Workshop now has a Tacky-When-Dry Gel Medium and Thermoweb has a Duo Paste that work with foils without heat.
ScrapTimeVideos thank you so much , appreciated 💐
Time I love the little boy look you get
Adorable!
Espectacular !!!!
bonissím....
What is the name of this event??
It is now called Creativation. It is a trade show that isn't open to the public.
LOOKOUT. Tim!!! Evil eye woman to your right and back😂😂😂
Can ya use this paste with silk screen stencils?
I don't think so. I think the paste would stick to the silk. But test it on a small piece to see what happens. Just make sure it is a screen you no longer want.
the hair?

why do people keep the melt pot videos on you tube, when the pot is
discontinued...I looked so hard and looked and looked for one there was only one on ebay
for 100.00 USD...would really love to have one
use a pot on a griddle. like for pancakes and bacon. It works the same.
My ranger texture paste is dried out, I only used it once and now it's garbage!
If your product is dried out I would contact Ranger Customer Service directly.
He seems so tired in this video.
CHA is really tiring. There are Ranger events starting 2 hours before the show opens.
There so much work to do before the show , I bet they are exhausted by the time the show opens.
i want ed to see the texture of the translucent matte texture paste 🫤
