[@inkyblisscreations]

You are most welcome Gillian ! At least you are used to the accent! Lol x

[@gillianjf260]

@@inkyblisscreations love your accent Lisa. So much so I’m delighted and truly proud when you speak. It’s melodic which sadly is not the norm in this neck of the woods😂. Good luck with your plans. Amazing you find time to craft but glad you do. 💕

[@pattiestarzynski]

Hi Lisa! So excited every time I see a new video by you. I am sure you are not going to disappoint. Your stamping and hoping for the best always turns out FANTASTIC!!! After watching you use the Zig clean markers, I tried them and LOVED using them on my card. I did miss your music 🎵🎶🎵 BEAUTIFUL, as usual 💜

[@shelleybluebell397]

Just a joy to watch - thank you 😊

[@cliveangelaedwards8854]

This is the most gorgeous scene I have seen for a long time... what a lovely composition and the colouring is fantastic... I love that sky and the way you bring the colour down into the water... I can't find enough words to describe just how beautiful this is... stunning Lisa... thank you... 😍🤗💕💕

[@99zanne]

I usually am working in my studio while I watch, and I LOVED the voice over! TFS!

[@Nicole-pu8ve]

Absolutely stunning. Thank you for explaining. Gorgeous card. Wow!

[@suehall3389]

It’s the first time I’ve discovered your amazing videos, I love listening to your demo. Why would anyone want music instead of your soothing voice!? I’m now off to seek out more of your wonderful art work with Lavinia Stamps on KZbin. Thank you for taking the time to share. Hugs, Sue. x

[@inkyblisscreations]

Thank you Sue. Much appreciated. kzbin.info

[@karenbenton1503]

I adored this video!

[@lindakitto8979]

Thank you for your commentary…it is most helpful especially with regard to how you build the perspective.. and why you use certain colours..

[@craftysandyscards]

Oh Lisa, this is totally stunning, I absolutely love to watch you create and the processes you use to achieve such an amazing work of art, I’m blown away by how talented you are. Take care and keep safe. Sandy 🌸

[@paulinelittlemore7476]

WOW, A true artist at work Lisa. I always thoroughly enjoy watching you bring your work to life. Your background colours are amazing and colours I would never have thought to use, but work so beautifully together. I miss the music, but thoroughly enjoyed listening to you explain your techniques throughout the video. Another fantastic and awe-inspiring tutorial, thank you so much xxx🤩💖

[@agneschrismer9946]

That is the most gorgeous stamp art ever. Makes me want to just walk through the woods and enjoy all the nature. Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing the beauty.

[@claireandrews7533]

Loved this, I have always enjoyed just watching you create with the music playing, I always think one day I would love to have a go at following along but have not been brave enough (or frankly have enough colours/supplies) but really enjoyed this too with your thought process and explanation. Thankyou.

[@thegypsy1968]

Absolutely Mesmerizing!!!! One of the most beautiful pieces of art I have ever looked at.Bravo!!!! Hugs,GinaB💖

[@cindihoskins6464]

Lisa, this absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I love that you talked through your process!!! Great video so THANK YOU for sharing this!!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@jilldigwood4328]

So beautiful Lisa, good to hear why and how you do things too. Thanks for sharing your beautiful artwork 💖🍄

[@elliescraftycorner999]

I loved watching this and hearing you talk and explaining how and why you do things. This is absolutely stunningly beautiful ❤️. I could look at this all day 🙂 xx

[@nataliewashbrook3255]

As always Lisa, your work is breathtaking. I really loved the video with you talking and explaining how each step was achieved. Looking forward to seeing more videos like this. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us 💛

[@brendashelonko2149]

The fully voiced tutorial is very instructive: it’s a full on art lesson. I’d also like a version with the music, though, to revisit the techniques. Thank you for another lovely forest scene!

[@ranimacias7638]

Lisa, what a great tutorial!!! Your efforts are paying off--you're just getting better and better. I agree with the former post: this is another masterpiece. E'en though the badger is my native state's animal, the beaver stays close to my heart as well. Hah...there's some Inspiration for a video for you--featuring the badgers. :) Again, Lisa, you have done a bang-up job with your art and the tutorial. You are definitely a credit to Lavinia.

[@lizmarsden7650]

Wow wow wow, again a masterpiece, the light effect is stunning, the layout and design is fabulous, thanks so much xx

You are an amazing Artist!! I know you mentioned that you have some changes coming in the future and won't be doing as many Tutorials.

Thank you for taking the time to share this beautiful and inspiring project! I look forward to your next as always! Much love and best wishes. From San Diego California USA 🌞 💝🧚‍♀️

[@valerieadams8786]

Oh this is just amazing! I would never have thought of those colours for the sky but they are perfect. I must say I did I enjoy the commentary too as it’s interesting to hear why you are doing what you are doing. Thank you so much.

I love your project Lisa, and I've been a fan for a long time ♥ I really enjoyed your commentary throughout as it's helped me understand how you achieve such beautiful work. Thank you so much for sharing your thought process - I'm definitely going to try and achieve something similar.

[@cuddlykoala5992]

This is absolutely stunning :) I love the way you have shown so much depth and gorgeous colour :)

[@JoyWilsonInk]

This scene is absolutely amazing. I learned so much 💜💜💜

[@geraldinezuniga-brant9449]

Thank you, Lisa. Totally mesmerising.

[@pamhatch160]

Lisa, it's beautiful. Its objective feels accomplished. It was to take the spectator into the deep of the words, through the trees . Listening to the sounds of nature and the gentle ripple of the lake to find two beavers busy at life's work. Serene . Some of your drawing techniques are familiar to me. I am the daughter of a muralist ❤Your creation of depth was tranquil to watch. Do you have your own artistry page? I would enjoy learning more about you and your art. Thank you for spending time to record your process and truly sharing the vision in your creative mind.

[@BarkingGriffon]

Beautiful! I love the use of colors and the explanation! It feels like something I could try!

[@suzannebrighton932]

WOW,What an awesome card, thank you for sharing

[@shirleymartin1004]

Your tutorial is just ever so helpful! Thank you so very much.

[@kimbennett2415]

Once again amazing! 🤩 I love the music you add especially the magic song but I love hearing your accent more! Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate how you create these beautiful pictures. I don’t have the beavers but I’ll see what I can come up with either my hares or the foxes. Have you gotten the new distress color yet, Salt water taffy? I just got the whole line it’s cheaper that way. Can’t wait to see what you do with it!

[@inkyblisscreations]

Yes! I’ll use them soon! X

[@chrissiesmith4938]

So beautiful you are absolutely amazing how you create these wonderful works of art thank you 😍

[@ritamontero1328]

Sooo beautiful, awed by your talent!

[@susanhunter8272]

Gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@mariekekolen2418]

This is stunning!!! So beautyful

[@louiselill1528]

Stunning art

[@jenniferlachance7837]

WOW. Love the very informative video and instruction. You took a lot of time to give detail, which i truly appreciate it helps put things in perspective more. I do have a question = on the artist blue mask is there something else that would work the same. I dont have any of that and was hoping to find something at home that might work. Thank You for the awesome tutorial

[@inkyblisscreations]

Hi maybe cut a circle from a post it note and stick it down .

[@catelobley7565]

Thank you so much Lisa for your brilliant tutorial. The voice over took it to a whole new level. Do you keep your oxide brushes purely for oxide inks?

[@inkyblisscreations]

Not always! The brushes are easy to clean. Xx

[@trinastreasures]

This is so very beautiful. Do you sell your art? I would love to buy a beaver scene like this for my Dad.
