    I believe red rubber makes the difference in stamp quality. Photopolymer is popular and "handy" because you can see where you're stamping (or stamped if you need to re-stamp the image). Red rubber however, shows the design details so much better than the photopolymer. I know people don't want (can't afford or like) to spend the money on a stamp platform. The upfront cost causes sticker shock but over time, I firmly believe a stamp platform pays for itself (more ways than one!!!). I've been a Penny Black fan for years! Quality and style always show, no matter how much time has passed. I've also been a Jill Foster fan for years! I love your style Jill. All your cards have an elegant look, even those with "little critters"!!! This was an excellent tutorial as always! TFS

    I didn’t think it is boring or too long You explain so well about the different watercolor paper. I can never get the right kind and get the results i want so will try you kind of paper. I love the one with the table and sweet little birds thank you for taking the time to make these videos

    Not a bit too long!! It’s all the little details that make such a huge difference! I actually took notes! Each time I watch your videos I learn something new. I love that you use so few products, that the PB stamps are such quality, and you show such a variety of ways to use, with such beautiful results! Less is more! So Thank you!! Simple and elegant!

    wow!! Very impressive video. I'll be hanging on to this one. So informative. And it definitely was not too long. You packed a lot of information into 38 minutes! You are so easy to listen to and watch. I have struggled with water coloring for years. Just can't find th enjoyment and relaxation with it like you do. It is work for me, I try too hard. Maybe now, after watching you, I can approach this with a whole new feeling. Thank you, thank you.

    Hi Jill - recently discovered you vids and am LOVING them. I'm learning so much and find so much inspiration! I've been a stamper for 30+ years - yes back in the days of Rubberstamp Madness magazine! And Penny Black has been a company that's been there all along... like Hero Arts. But the Penny Black website is nearly unusable. Very unfriendly to shop on for a number of reasons. Please pass along to the PB staff/owners to take some time and upgrade the site. I guarantee your sales will improve. I work in a ecommerce-related field (not web development) and gather analytics for ecomm businesses so I know what I'm talking about. I mean this in the most positive way possible. Keep up the amazing vids - and yes, Penny Black does have great designs!

    • @PennyBlackInc

    This was great Jill, very useful to see how you work but also to see the comparison between the more detailed card and the simpler version. As I often paint in the simpler style, I’ve learnt that those images can still look really good and are appreciated by the recipient. As you say Penny Black stamps are so well designed and stamp so well that we are most of the way. Enjoyed too your finishing off techniques and I will be giving that a go. This video was not too long and we can always stop and come beck to it if we have other things to do. Thanks for this😊

    First, thank you so much for the detailed video on great tips for water coloring! It is also a preferred medium of mine to use but I don't always get the results I want. I love coloring too but my hands get cranky, haha. I love birds and sunflowers so if I HAD to pick, those would be the ones. They are all beautiful works of art!

    I love these kind of videos. It's so helpful to actually see the process, esp. when it's really not my forte. I actually believe I can do it after watching your videos! 😂🙃 Probably the hollyhocks are my fav, though all of the cards were so pretty. I'm always happy when I see you pull out the 'background noise' stamps. "Oh..I have that one!" ;) Great reminders to use my stash!! Thanks for all of your inspiration Jill.

    @kimberlysiddons Рік тому +9

    Thanks for this video; never such a thing as a video that is too long when we are learning from you! I have learned so much over the years watching you watercolor these stamps. My biggest issue is how you do the background coloring right up against the stamp and then wash it out to white……I cannot do that at all! It’s either too dark, or it runs into my finished stamp and makes a mess. My favorite is all of them! ❤

    • @PennyBlackInc
      @PennyBlackInc  Рік тому

      Thanks, Kimberly, for your kind words! The background coloring definitely takes me practice and patience- sometimes I just use an ink blending tool and foam pad instead. :)

  • @louisehorner
    @louisehorner Рік тому +1

    Thanks for this video! It was vey helpful, and I am encouraged to pull out my unused Penny Black stamps and try water coloring again. Inspired by previous videos, I was excited to try, but was not successful at the level I felt was the quality of my usual card making. This video revisited some of my challenges…how to set up your workspace materials for success, what colors to use, what range of color to use, how much water quality to paint quantity, how does one lift a blob of paint, how wet or dry is the brush for what you want to achieve? What becomes standard practice for one with lots of experience is very valuable to one with little experience. Thank you, again!

  • @anniegotakindlee
    @anniegotakindlee 5 місяців тому +1

    I love watching your videos. I just found you not long ago. You are most talented and inspiring. I am trying to implement some of your stress free stamping techniques. I have made some cards that I would have never, never, never thought of. It is a new approach and I am still learning! Thank you for posting such wonderful things for us!
