    @pamelab7871 5 років тому

    Great tips! My favorite was the one where you attached the whole stamp set with tape to the misti. Then the entire set can be stamped at once without having to take each stamp off the plastic backing and then cleaning it and replacing it. This is a great hack! Thanks!

    Awesome video! I love the hack of leaving all stamps on the original packaging and using painters tape to stamp the images all at once. I had thought of this myself but never tried it. It’s nice to see it in action! Hope you had a great Christmas!!! Happy New Year!!!

    I've often wondered if I could put Gamsol in one of my waterbrushes but I was afraid it might put out too much liquid. I might try your idea! And ohhhh the different colors of Nuvo Mousse on the white specialty paper!!! Looks like mermaid scales!

    What an eye opening introduction to the Nuvo mousse. It would be quite striking with a stencil. There are so many colors to choose from, one or two wouldn't be enough. How did you go about selecting the colors you bought?
