That's the second message I've gotten today that it's about the creating, not the finished product. I generally create with no finished product in my mind. I create because of how I feel while doing it. It's all confirmation for me to keep doing that. It helps when the end result is a beautiful piece like yours. ❤

[@ShawnPetite]

I love it when we get messages like that.... it confirms what we're doing! have a wonderful week!

[@lisakorp]

This came out beautifully. Thank you for all you do to inspire and support us in our creative journey. ❤

[@ShawnPetite]

Thank you so much! Thanks for being here🥰

[@Mysharona62]

What a joyful spread! Love how you always find another flower or two in the spots and dots. Thank you for sharing. As always the best way to start my Sundays.

The very first pull on the gel plate just made my heart sing! I adore that colour combination and I try always to get that aged and weathered look! So good! It is a rainy Easter Sunday in Spain and this was just what I needed to cheer me up. I love how your spread came together like you had a plan all along, that just shows how talented you are! Hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend!💕🇨🇦

[@ShawnPetite]

That was my favorite too! stay dry! have a wonderful week.

Do you dry between layers? You put the leaf template on and green paint and then you spread a background color. Did you dry the paint between template color and background color?

[@lisaM-yc6qu]

Loved this video and it was very inspiring. What paint is in your squirt paint bottles and what type of bottles do you use? Do you send your paints?

[@ShawnPetite]

They are house paints from home depot. I get the bottles from Amazon. They're condiment bottles. I have links and I explain my paints in the "most used supplies" section of the subscriber library. The link is about in the description. It's free.

[@sarahkhamsoda7549]

Love this! Quick question, did you gesso the journal pages 1st?

[@ShawnPetite]

yes I did. Thanks for watching!

[@sarahkhamsoda7549]

@@ShawnPetite thanks xx

[@claremiller8375]

What kind of paper do you use on your geli plate to create the colored paper? Thx!❤

[@ShawnPetite]

I use copy paper or tissue paper.

[@annavanluven3617]

Are you using regular tissue paper? Or is it a premium brand?

[@ShawnPetite]

I'm using regular tissue paper I get it from amazon or from the dollar store

[@marywagner9927]

Beautiful work! But the music ruins the contemplative feel. Why does everyone think they need music to art videos? I come here for ART - not music. What could be a delightful experience instead is ruined because of the addition of music. Can we not stand to be quiet anymore? I think so, sadly.

[@ShawnPetite]

Hi Mary, I'm sorry you didn't like the music. Most everyone loves my selection of music. You always have the option to mute the video or turn the sound down. that way you can watch in peace and others can still enjoy the music. Thanks for being here.
