Kristina, I had to stop the video and comment, the second panel was absolutely gorgeous! You are a master at blending. I am sure I have seen some many of these techniques before, however it was such an amazing video with a wide variety of different things to get my oxides out and try again. Thank you, for such an amazing video!!! As Cathy Z said you blew my mind in a couple of ways!! 😊🙌👏👏👏

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Terrific! Kristina is a master and so great to learn from!

So fantastic! You have shown more truly NEW and different ways to use oxides (especially combined with other products) in a single video than in a month of watching elsewhere! I love the "watercolor" look especially, but I can't wait to play with these new techniques! Thanks so much.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

This was a wonderful video. Thank you for all the great ideas!! And I could listen to your voice all day!

[@janethock4043]

At first I didn't like the cards but, the way you put them on the cards I loved them. Great job. Janet Hockenberry

[@bookgoddess]

I love these Simon Says Stamp, 5 Ways in 5 Days videos. This one has lots of great tips but make sure to watch all the way to the end because seeing the finished cards brings everything together in a very satisfying way. They are beautiful!

[@SimonSaysStamp]

You are so right, Teressa! Glad you enjoyed the classes!

[@j9cardstock354]

Thanks SSS and Christina for all the tips! Jeannine

[@patriciadistefano7467]

Amazing techniques! Thanks so much for sharing. Beautiful papers.

[@judybishop3161]

Love watching your videos Kristina!🌺

[@kellyjoskreations]

That Microglaze is INCREDIBLE!!! Thank you for enabling me. I’m adding this to my list of next purchases. 🐾❤️

[@SimonSaysStamp]

It's so amazing!

[@MsLouisVee]

😺😹😹

[@waboosje]

Me too😂

[@shellyt9620]

Oh my goodness, these are so beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@lindakitto8979]

Really useful tutorial. It’s nice to see something that’s at another level. Thank you. Linda in UK

[@SimonSaysStamp]

"At another level" is high praise! Thanks, Linda!

[@expressivepaper]

Great video!!!

[@carolestrawn8755]

Very, very cool video and techniques. I especially loved the one with the flowers though all are great. The use of the micro glaze to get rid of the chalkiness of the Oxides really blew me away.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Kristina has such great ideas!

[@renaewolford3270]

Amazing! Fantastic! You are truly Inspiring! Thank you...

[@SimonSaysStamp]

We're so glad you enjoyed it!!

[@carmenbaby02]

[@cathymorris8072]

Amazing all of the techniques! This video is a keeper! One I'll watch over & over.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Hope you learn something new every time!

[@msl3900]

Love it Sweet girl. I'm a Utah girl also living temporarily in N.W.MONTANA. way too cold here. Not as many sunny days as Utah. I was in Bountiful up against the mountain. Saving this vid to repeat the effects on my projects.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Enjoy! We've got several designers in Utah!

[@caroldubois6183]

Wonderful video, Kristina. Thank you so much for your time and creativity.

[@marykayross8817]

Great ideas and tips! Thanks for sharing, Kristina!

[@Pebblesmas]

Love all your ideas, thx somuch 👍😃

[@lissettelong5077]

Micro glaze was cool. Would love to see finished cards with distress oxide techniques.

[@coolstamper]

I’ve done the same technique on photo paper and the chalkiness just wipes off with a tissue and leaves the same effect in the end. You really don’t need the Micro Glaze. 💕🌸💕

[@kimharbaugh]

I do that too, works beautifully!

[@bookgoddess]

Thank you for the tip on using photo paper. I didn't have the alcohol ink paper, but I do have the Distress Micro Glaze. I tried it with and without the glaze. It comes out more lustrous with the glaze, I think. I'm psyched you can use photo paper though.

[@coolstamper]

@@bookgoddess Yes…I’ve seen videos on using distress oxides on photo paper and it works GREAT. I have the glaze too…I purchased it before I knew about the photo paper. But I’ve also heard it doesn’t work on all photo paper, but it works on mine. I make my background and when completed I just buff it with a tissue and it’s awesome!!! 💕

[@ADayInLisasLife3947]

Keep a eye open in thrift stores. There are usually lots of photo paper packs in the office section.

[@marylehett1127]

Thank you for so many creative techniques, Kristina.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

She's a powerhouse of ideas!

[@kiwipommiegirl]

Great video! Thanks so much for sharing these products& how to use them. Happy New Year!

[@SimonSaysStamp]

[@KonaSitkaRose]

I have not been as creative with oxide inks but I will now! Thank you for all the inspiration!!!

[@SimonSaysStamp]

We were super inspired as well!!

[@lindalincks6187]

Fantastic video Kristina! That micro glaze technique is so cool! Loved all the ideas!

Thank you for all the Oxide tips and your fabulous cards! I am loving this series from Simon, I am learning so much!

[@SimonSaysStamp]

That's what we love to hear!!

[@kimcreate1]

So great. Love that you can use oxides on glossy paper. And that glaze is WOW

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Isn't that a cool trick!?

[@sacconner]

Outstanding! I tried the Distress Resist spray and found out that my nozzle was only giving me a stream. Replaced the entire spray mechanism and it was fine. All of your work, Kristina, was simply beautiful! Thank you for all the tips on ink blending, which I struggle with!

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Hope you can use the tips going forward!

[@trudievick2359]

Thank you thank you. I've had the resist spray for a while and to be honest forgot what I bought it for. So many new techniques to try. Thanks for sharing.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Enjoy, Trudie!

[@Melanie_CraftMama]

Lol, same here! 😃

[@MsLouisVee]

Me too the other day I was so frustrated because I thought I was spraying white paint over my work and it just kept disappearing now I know why

[@bookgoddess]

Ditto for the resist spray and the distress micro glaze. I've had them forever and didn't remember what I could do with them.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Great techniques and beautiful cards.

Yay using a gel press without acrylic paint. Look forward to trying this with my distress oxide inks. Thank you!

[@kathypatterson4630]

Gorgeous!

[@leeminer1939]

VERY cool! On the gel press I could see you were channeling your inner Braque. All the techniques were cool and I even like the one I thought I wasn't going to like but of course it was terrific by the time you were done too (the floral background). Thank you Kristina (and Simon) for this great lesson.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Very nice artsy reference! We're impressed!

[@ellenbornstein7203]

fab video!

[@scrapendipitysmh]

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Enthralling! Great word!

[@barbaracilley8200]

I love the Micro Glaze. The paper comes to life.

[@chrissyyanelli6767]

Amazing video!

[@deborahnorthover5304]

Loved watching this, thanks.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@vickicervantes1817]

I've actually have done the Alcohol Paper trick with the Destress Oxide Inks and the Destress Glaze! I thought ok this works with the Alcohol Inks so I'm trying the Destress Oxide Inks, with using Destress Oxide Inks I always put the Glaze on top of the finished card to hold in the ink without destroying my cardand I was blown away❤😊❣ But me being a Nobody I didn't know how to post it. Kristen all of ideas are so Amazing and beautiful cards! You totally inspire me all the time. Thank You so much for sharing with all of us. Sending Love, Hugs and Blessings to you and your Sweetheart. XOXO Vicki from the State of Utah ❤😊❣

[@SimonSaysStamp]

You're not a nobody to us!!

[@idaloo62]

I LOVE your creativity! Very inspiring!!!🤗

[@debbiebrewington7635]

Thank you so much for all the tips. The oxide is my all time favorite it’s so forgiving, but you’ve taken it to a whole new level! Thank you!

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Glad you learned some new tricks!

[@iliketocutandpaste]

Great Video! I love the gelli printing with inks-I will be trying that soon. Thank you! :)

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Have fun!

[@AbbyAvon]

I bought this item and to date had not used it. however, thanks to this tutorial, I'll be using it all the time. Thanks for the share!

[@lorimcgarrity6537]

beautiful as always. I saw a lady do the technique of wiping down the color on gloss cardstock. It's amazing the difference in the look isn't it? Sometimes I just prefer doing my oxides on gloss cardstock. It's just amazing to me the difference between pieces when you polish one up.

[@susancarlson2547]

Thanks Kristina!! Really appreciate this tutorial! Great review & some new techniques!? Loving this series!!’

[@judithsigler9644]

WOWEE, Kristina! THESE ARE AMAZING! I’ve learned so much w/this video, and became aware of products that I didn’t know about previously! LEARNING NEW TECHNIQUES is ALWAYS a blast! I can easily see how addictive some of the techniques can become! I was often “surprised” w/some of the color choices n’ the results~~~how beautiful n’ interesting! Of course, some WONDERFUL tips throughout as well which are so appreciated! :-) I really enjoyed everything you’d shared but since I’ve had varied results w/my blending the section w/Blending Brushes was especially helpful for me! I LOVE YOUR FINAL CARD CREATIONS especially that the cards are SIMPLE n’ let the “creative designs” be the focus! JUST LOVELY! TFS & HAPPY CREATIN’! Sending SMILES from Madison, WI! ;-)))))

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Hooray! That's terrific! Have so much fun!

[@denah6555]

LOVE, love, love this video! Thank you for sharing all these amazing techniques.

[@SimonSaysStamp]

Enjoy trying them for yourself!

[@K.Taylor56]

I’m super excited to play with my Micro Glaze and Resist Spray. I’ve obviously not played with them enough!! Love these techniques !!
