    Such beautiful cards! I love the fantasy colors of the hummingbirds; I often get "stuck" trying to make things always look realistic. The dark backgrounds are so striking, and show that dark doesn't have to equal somber or serious! Thank you, Yana, for some first class inspiration!

    Ginak has some very nice dark cardstocks. Some of my favorites are Blue Denim, Tranquil Teal, In the Navy, Fresh Asparagus, and Blue Raspberry. She also has inks in those colors as well as some additional ones like Wild Wisteria and Plum Punch that you could use to create your own dark backgrounds with.

    I am new to following you, and I love your cards here. I have used a few times a dark background but never thought of using ink in the background...on white cards but not dark. Thank you for all that you share to help us all.❤

    I have always loved the contrast of a dark background... it really does make things pop. It was very evident on the screen as you first had your die cuts on your white surface... such a great video! Thank you!

    I love these beautiful card designs and the bright colors you used. The dark backgrounds really make them shine. Thanks too for sharing alternative sources for ink, paper, brushes.. I have been looking for the dark paper at Spellbinders and not seeing them at all. Thanks Yana.

    Most of the comments appropriately so only use one word of their response to these cards today. It is beautiful or gorgeous. What else can we say? Stunning!?
    yes! I really like how you describe your thoughts on card making as you go too. You’re just a Winner! Lol.

    Gorgeous cards Yana! I have to disagree with you about the yellow Spellbinders tape. It constantly tears my paper, especially the new cotton paper for the betterpress. It's so frustrating and I'm not the only one with that problem. Argh! Anyhow, TYSM for sharing! Your cards are very impactful!

    • @Yana.Smakula
      @Yana.Smakula  Рік тому

      BetterPress paper is different, it is made differently, and it is porous, so the tape sticks much more to this type of cardstock. It does depend on the cardstock. It works great for me for the colored cardstock from Spellbinders. I'm glad you like the cards and enjoyed the video :) Thank you!
