Oh you are just the queen of sprays!!! Nobody and I mean Nobody can create backgrounds like you Tiffany IMHO! I just printed out your 2024 color combos and I look so forward to your class later in the month! Thanks for sharing!!
I did a mixed piece the other day that I loved but ruined with the spray. It came out too fast and heavy and covered too 23:24 much. I only wanted splatters. Now I know what to do. It's one of those duh moments. Awesome tag, colors are perfect. Love it.
Can you do the exact thing with oxide sprays? That’s what I have. Also have some dylusions. Wonder how that would be mixed with oxide sprays? Would it ruin it?
Why, in heaven's name haven't I thought of this before??? This is absolutely brilliant!! I have myriad spray stains and oxides and have been searching for a way to "control them". Thank you so much!!! New sub here!
I love this! Great colour combination, stunning tag. So many different techniques and so well explained! Thank you Tiffany. I don't have any of those stamps but I want to try this tag so I will improvise with what I have.
I love your tag. I took your alcohol inks class and totally understand what your doing. I can't wait for your new class. I always learn SO much from you! Hugz ❤
Gorgeous tag, Tiffany! The micro-glaze truly brings out the richness of the colors. BTW, I use vinyl gloves when using the TH sprays because the inks wash off them easier than my hands, and I can reuse them.
If you stamp over and don’t have archival, what can you use and how will it change it over oxide sprays or dylusions? I love your talent but I’m a pink, coral, yellow, aqua girl.
Gorgeous as always, Tiffany! I love your straightforward, clear and uncomplicated teaching style. What do you do with your tags? I have a bunch of blank ones and I love the look of the when I see people work with them, but I don't know what I'd do with them when they're finished. Help?
Thank you so much Tiffany, I really really enjoyed watching you create this beautiful and uniquely stunning tag. I really really love ❤❤❤❤ it. You’re so clever and creative too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Are crafters intimidated by sprays because of the lack of control? You can also just use a paint brush. Same deal: spray onto nonporous surface and then pick up spray with a paint brush. Plop the color where you want it. Avoid swiping the plush around if you are trying to mimic spraying or dipping. Adding splatters helps it to look sprayed. The fear that has caused me to be tight with my art supplies is that if I mess up I will have wasted money. Sprays are around $8 a bottle now, right? It feels bad when I spend money and then feel as though I haven’t made anything of which I can be proud. But I think I have learned to turn this mindset around. Here’s what I tell myself when I start feeling like I am “wasting” my supplies: It is equally wasteful to leave my supplies sitting on a shelf until they go bad. If I use the supplies but I am displeased with the results, I have at least learned something. Think about how much we spend on education; humans clearly place a high value on knowledge. Using my supplies is a way to gain experiential knowledge. To cement the learning I either take a photo and attach notes or glue my “mistake” into my art journal and again make notes. I’m less consistent with making notes on my successes. Still a good idea though, because that “how did I make this” feeling isn’t so great. I haven’t been that jazzed about any of the hydrophilic ( rewetable) mediums for a long while, but I learned a new technique that makes it easier to “freeze” the look before adding additional layers. Coat the entire surface of your project with matte medium, but use a gel plate so the whole surface is covered at once. No brushing or rubbing means that dyes do not move. Make sure your piece is thoroughly dry before coating. Adding additional layers is typically easier over matte medium than over wax. You can add archival inks and pigment inks over the top of matte medium. You can heat emboss on top of matte medium too, just keep heat gun moving to avoid bubbling. Acrylic ink & paint also work. Colored pencils, pastels, and crayons too. If you want to add water based mediums, you will have to use an absorbent acrylic ground first. That can be added the same way as matte medium using a gel plate. The gel plate should be bigger than your surface so that you get edge to edge coverage in one fell swoop. I also want to recommend Karen Campbell and her hamburger 🍔 system. She has easy to understand videos on what mediums play well together and in what order to apply them.
Very simple!!!??? SAYS YOU! 😂🤣😅😅. Great lesson! Patience and "sticktoitness" seems to be the key. I always stop too soon. Thanks for another great example. ❤️
Patience is for sure needed.I know you can do it. I actually have a distress spray class coming up. It will cover basics of sprays and then we will take them to the next level by using different mediums. Here is the link. tiffanymsolorio.podia.com/basics-and-beyond-distress-spray-class
I use a technique similar to this with my oxide sprays. I hate spraying the oxide directly on the substrate because I never get the effect I want with them. I only have a few of them for this reason. I love ‘painting with oxides’ using the bottom of the spray nozzle on top of paper ran through an embossing folder. It helps get the colors into all those nooks and crannies. I love the colors of your distress sprays. Have never seen tea dye used with the blues and the browns. Uncharted Mariner and Antique Linen are two of my favorite sprays. Can’t wait to try this with what colors I currently have.
Uncharted mariner is seriously a beautiful color. I am loving it! And I love this video….well, I love all your videos, especially the ones with TH products. TFS and God bless you!
Layering and the waiting time is hard to do. Your techniqe is lovely and you explaining is great. I have to practise more. Thank you for showing this!🥰
Beautiful colors. I was able to order 2 glass boards through your site because of the generous discount you offered. Thanks 😊 The glass mats came in about 2 days after ordering. I'm sooo pleased with them. I ordered the all white, but they shipped the flower one.(happy accident, I'm thrilled with the flowers) Thank you again.
Wow!! ...just WOW!! You are really good and your tag is really cool. We've not met before but you were in my feed this morning and I'm so glad I stayed and watched. Long story short, you have a new subbie from the southern California desert! Hugs, MK 🤗🏜🤗
Ahhhmazing!!! So inspiring that I had to create a Halloween card half-way through your video with the smooshing technique you modeled! Absolutely LOVE this technique. I had put my sprays away and wasn't using them, but I just created a bunch of background panels that I use soon! Thx so much!
Really pretty! I'd like to ask a silly question, but I really would like to see it answered. I have seen this tags being decorated in youtube for years now, but I never understood what is the use of them after finished. What are they made for? Excuse my ignorance; I have been learning about these things in youtube but don't really know anyone who papercrafts in person.
😂 I don't mind my inky fingers..... It comes off eventually LOL! Do you let the oxides dry for a good amount of time first? I am not sure I have used the glaze on oxides so I don't have any more tips. I'm sorry.
I know my problem is that I don’t layer properly, inpatient I guess, but I don’t like the mess of spraying the ink, so this is going to be a great help

Love how these colors intermix with each other. Very pretty

Can you do the exact thing with oxide sprays? That’s what I have. Also have some dylusions. Wonder how that would be mixed with oxide sprays? Would it ruin it?
Would reinkers work similarly to the sprays?
I love this look. Thanks

If you stamp over and don’t have archival, what can you use and how will it change it over oxide sprays or dylusions? I love your talent but I’m a pink, coral, yellow, aqua girl.
Use clear embossing powder on the stamped image to preserve non archival inked images.
@@tthappyrock368 I had a 🙄 duh moment! Lol thanks!
Awesome! so glad I found your channel 🎉

This video alone not only sold me on sprays, it sold me on uncharted mariner - how fabulous!!
I like the dark stamping on the light. It is my favourite look 😀

Thank you Tiffany for another awesome video..love the Mariner Blue with Deep Expresso..💕💕

Seeing the process and telling us what is going on is very helpfull to me!!👍Thank you very much🥰

Amazing as always Tiffany 😍. Love the new color. I just ordered the bundle and I can't wait to get it and play until my heart's content 😁
Beautiful 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you for the wonderful tutorial Tiffany!!!
Magnifique 🤩
Question....can non porous paper be molded, for example, shaping die cuts of flowers for cards.
Love it! It looks like a nebula!
That is awesome, such a great tag.
Thank you for this helpful video.
Beautiful! How do you get the sprays off your hands?
Beautiful

That background!!! 💕
Love this. So beautiful.
Gorgeous 😍
Love those background colors! What a beautiful tag🤩
Amazing ❤
I'm so glad you liked it! 😄
Love your techniques! Thank you Tiffany! 🌷
What kind of paper or cardstock do you have to use for the sprays?
I'm definitely going to spray on my mat now! Thanks for the tutorial. Happy 4th!
Wow!! ...just WOW!! You are really good and your tag is really cool. We've not met before but you were in my feed this morning and I'm so glad I stayed and watched. Long story short, you have a new subbie from the southern California desert! Hugs, MK 🤗🏜🤗
Hello, nice to “meet” you. So glad you’re here. Hope you enjoy more of my content. Thank you so much!

Tiffany, is brown expresso and pea die not available anymore? if so what would be
a good substitute?
Amazing tutorial, this might totally help me over my fear of the sprays!
Loved your video! Getting my tags out. I’ve had lack of space but this I can do! I can’t find your links and love that glass you used for your inks.
Wow !
What are sprays acrylic or ink?
Really pretty!
I'd like to ask a silly question, but I really would like to see it answered. I have seen this tags being decorated in youtube for years now, but I never understood what is the use of them after finished. What are they made for? Excuse my ignorance; I have been learning about these things in youtube but don't really know anyone who papercrafts in person.
No worries at all. I get this a lot actually. Sometimes I add them to the front of a card, or I give them instead of a card. I hope this helps some.
Beautiful tag!
re-title this! this is great - seriously! I don't think think I would have clicked on this, but you are always GREAT, TFS
J adore j adore, vous avez utilisez quelles couleur des encres en spray ? Merci poir votre réponse.
I’m new to this and love what you created. I have a question, what do you do to the back of the tag?
Thank you!! I don't do anything to is. I leave it blank.
That came out beautiful! I haven't tried the sprays yet, is that tag made for this or can you use any yardstick?
The paper needs to be thick. Like watercolor or mixed media type of paper. I hope that helps.
Will this work with oxide spray, and I have the Dylushional sprays. This is amazing 😮
It sure will. You will get different results but oxides work too. I am not sure about the other sprays. Thank you!
Would the sprays work with the shaving foam technique?
Yes :) I have done this. Color comes out lighter than when using a reinker.
Two questions. How do you clean your hands? 😀
And, when I used the micro glaze it just smears everything. (I’m using Oxide Inks. Is that the problem?)
😂 I don't mind my inky fingers..... It comes off eventually LOL! Do you let the oxides dry for a good amount of time first? I am not sure I have used the glaze on oxides so I don't have any more tips. I'm sorry.
Awesome❣️
Great tag and I LOVE the inky fingers :-)
Thank you so much! Inky fingers are the best!
If you don’t mind clearing it. What is the difference between alcohol ink AND Distress ink
I know my problem is that I don’t layer properly, inpatient I guess, but I don’t like the mess of spraying the ink, so this is going to be a great help
Love the tag! Hey… I have the same 22 A Day bracelet…. Mine is from Til Valhalla. “ Veterans Lives Matter”.
What do you do with these tags?
I would also like to know
I hang them in my office or I send them to friends instead of a card. I hope this helps.
A close up of the finished tag would have been great for those of us watching on smaller screens.
Thanks for the feedback. If you have Instagram there are photos over there.
Thank You!!
You are very welcome.
That 1st tag, looks like alcohol inks. So Beautiful!
💜💜💜
Thank you! ❤️
first! 🥰🥰🥰
Hey there!!! ❤️ Enjoy!
@@Tiffany.Solorio You and your creations inspire me to do mixed media. Thank you so much, Tiffany! 🥰
