Juliana this is the type of card I love! Thanks for the detailed, clear look at how you made it as there were some new techniques there for me. This is not a card that I would want to give to anyone!😊

You are so informative. A great teacher. Please keep it up

[@JulianaMichaels]

I appreciate that and I’ll do my best!

[@kjones1785]

Another great release from Tim! I learned the stamp and smudge technique from you, love all these new cards you have created!

[@JulianaMichaels]

Awesome! Thank you! It’s always a go-to technique for me!

[@rtd1791]

That was a lot of different techniques and steps. It builds to a sophisticated look. When you were blurring your images, I felt a strong sense of protest. But ultimately a bunch of distinct images would not only feel chaotic, the chaos would over power the focal elements. Your techniques make a harmonious background that sets the mood for the entire card. Watching the card unfold was quite valuable. Often when I see Tim Holtz’s makers’ inspiration pieces, I feel awed but also like the pieces are beyond my skill set. Seeing the process laid out technique by technique showed me that I can do this too. Thank you ☺️

[@JulianaMichaels]

I’m so glad you stuck with me and I hope you will give this technique a try! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

[@bettyareson6098]

Hi I’m so glad I found your Utube channel! I LOVE 💕 your makes!! Now I get to see exactly how you make your projects. I’m SO happy! I don’t know how other makers feel, but I’m a little intimidated when I see the makes on Tim Holtz. I’ve been wanting to see a Tim Holtz make. The actual steps not just pieces of a make. Thank you SO MUCH!!😊 I’ve got to watch all your videos and check out your blog.

[@JulianaMichaels]

Welcome!! I'm so happy you are here! Thanks for such kind words!!!
