Gerry's Craft Room It makes me very angry not to understand you when you speak 😔😔😔

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Mariel OlimpiaKiara oh dear, can you turn on subtitles? Does that help? If you have any questions just let me know sweetie, you know I’m here to help you 💕😘

[@marielolimpiakiara1897]

Gerry's Craft Room Are subtitles activated on KZbin? I do not know how!!! do not worry I see how you do the work, but it makes me angry not to understand you when you speak looking at the camera jejeje 😘😘😘💕💕💕

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Mariel OlimpiaKiara aaah ok I was telling about the ink smooching techniques and how I asked in the community tab if viewers could come up with names for the techniques. On a table and phone you can click at the top on the little wheel and there are options for subtitles (I add english ones in almost all video’s, I don’t know if that helps) and on desktop you can click the wheel at the bottom. I hope this helps😘💖

[@lauramartin7300]

Omg!!! I LOVE THESE!!! I could spend all day just doing these..I did do some a couple of weeks ago using crayola markers,a plastic zip lock bag, a small one and water. I scribbled markers on. Sprayed with water put card stock on,flipped it and rubbed it. Whatever color that was left on each time ,I used the same card to pick it up.. it was different from rest. Had alot of fun. I did it for about 2 hours. Didn't want to stop. Have to try the saran wrap and d blending,and dabbed tools now too. Thanks for Sharing. LOVE your videos..Love the cards with simple cutouts on them,but a big impact. I think I might do some cards with color on the front and some inside too. Thank again...

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks💖 sounds like you had a great time, enjoy the techniques💕

[@craftysandyscards]

Wow, wow Gerry, simply love all of these backgrounds! Especially the black soot and espresso colours 😲 I’m weird haha. The last technique is the most controlled but they are all fabulous.. thank you so much for what you do! 💖🤗💖🌸

[@jarobertson6]

Thank you so much for this. I love that last one with the dauber and blending tool, because I'm often not satisfied with the results using the acetate to smooch.

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

jarobertson6 thanks💕you’re welcome 💖it’s sort of a mini and micro smooch😉also great for smaller projects💕😊

[@didididi4613]

I'm curious about what would happen if you add some gold embossing powder to the plastic before you smoosh it on the paper, then, use the heat gun on it.

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

don't let me keep you then, just grab that embossing powder and give it a try😉

[@wordscrafter]

Wow, very cool backgrounds! This looks like so much fun, I can't wait to try these! Thank you for sharing this :)

[@paprluvr]

Never thought of using white punches or diecuts on the smooshed cards. Also the smoky card would be great with Halloween diecuts. Great job. TFS. Tere

Melissa Phillis 😂it kinda was, wasn’t it😉💖

[@TheJanestarling]

I love all the techniques, although the smooch of doom was a little scary 😱😨 The names explained them perfectly. My favourite I think has to be the 'precision/Gerry' smooch, you're the only one I've seen do it! 💟

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Jane Starling thanks💕sorry about that, maybe I should have added a warning 😁😉I like that one too, I use it a lot😁😍

I love the death smooch!!! How about a "midnight smooch" with blueprint sketch? 🙃

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Dirty Deeds done dirt cheap thanks💕😁oh do we need more smooches😉or I got the blues smooch, with all blue inks😁

[@janetshaffer423]

Where do you find such thick acetate? Also, who makes that large and dramatic flower die?

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

The thick acetate I often use is from the packaging of dies. For the flower I think you mean the one from this set: Tim Holtz Wildflower Stems 2 ldli.co/e/mjme3e [ Scrapbook.com ]

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Daphne hazell thanks, glad you loved it💖😘😁

[@bethjeans3780]

Love these, especially with the plastic wrap. It’s been called “smooshing” in classes, etc. I’d gone to, with “smooching” meaning kissing - but these inks are kissing the paper and acetate too, right? lol :D

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Beth Jeans thanks💖I’ve looked it up and there are different names for it, smooching was most appealing to me as we all looooove paper, don’t we😁😉💕

[@katherine2777]

I think you mean. Smooshing???

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

I did a thorough search of the word used for this techniques and different ones are used, I used the English smooching because it's sort of kissing the paper😉

[@joannerosario9936]

So many great tips! Thank you.
