Great tips and products! I just ordered a set of the color PoPs and I can’t wait to try these ideas. My favorite (and cheap) embellishment is my mini glue gun using glitter or colored glue sticks. I can make “wax seals” or even draw shapes with it on waxed paper. Then I just pop them off and use them with a dab of regular glue to hold them down. I made spiderwebs with black glue sticks, and lollipops with bright color sticks. The glue sticks are everywhere- Walmarts, hobby stores, Amazon, AliExpress. Love this mini series of videos! TFS!

You can also sink a rubber stamp into the melted glue and when cooled pull out for an impression in the glue. I use black a lot and add stickles to the impression and rub’n’buff to the top of the glue. U can glue in glitter and tiny beads and charms, too. I usually do that on scrap cardboard and then glue the finished piece to my cards.

I also love Stickles - nothing adds a Christmas touch like Stickles. Have also added many "stitches" and accents with a white Gelly Roll pen. Another favorite of mine is Wink of Stella which adds just the right amount of shimmer. Thanks for the demos - I never thought about using white out, and didn't know snow pens existed - another addition to my shopping list.

I can't say it's a favorite, per se, just because I don't do it all the time, but one thing I like to do sometimes is stitch on cards & scrapbook layouts. Whether I use my sewing machine or do it by hand depends on the project & how precise I need to be. Thank you for sharing these products & different techniques to use with them. I have never thought of icicles from Stickles! I hope the year has gotten off to a good start for you, & that you're enjoying retirement. Kind of slow & a bit dull for me, but I credit at least part of that to my depression. Sigh! Though I did manage to make 28 Valentine's cards over the past couple of weeks to donate to Send a Smile 4 Kids, which serves children who are inpatients in children's hospitals, so I guess that's something.

You can make your own shimmer pen by filling an aqua pen with shimmer spray! I make my own shimmer spray by mixing a small amount (about 1/8 teaspoon to 4 oz.) of pearl colored (or silver or gold) acrylic craft paint into rubbing alcohol. Works like a charm and doesn’t come off because the paint has a binder in it. I mix it in a spray bottle to use on larger areas or to make my own shimmer card stock. You can also put it in a container and just paint it on with a brush. Happy crafting!❤️

Could you add that glaze to a paint and get that 3d effect as well?

I suppose but I've never tried. I will have to give that a go for sure

Hi Mary 🙋♀️. I've been watching your vids for several months now and even tho I make junk journals I have learned lots of cool stuff watching you. I have a question - or maybe I missed something - I stopped the vid a few minutes in to go stamp squares on black cardstock and outline with my white gel pen but it didn't work out so well... the inks I used were Distress Inks by Ranger and showed no color, then the white "stitches" didn't show up on the ink stamped squares either (but it was great on the black paper. What'm I doing or not doing? 🤷♀️ Be gentle with me when you say, "Uh... HELLO!!" 🤦♀️ 😳🥺 😁🤣 I will tell you the whole affair looks GREAT on white with black pen! Thank in advance. Smiles from the southern California desert, MK 😀 🏜

I love this so much!! Ok so I outlined them in pencil but colored them in with metallic watercolor. That might be the difference.

Hi Mary. So why do you like the Pops of color over the Nuvo drops??
@marypolancodesigns2 жыл бұрын
I've always had problems with the consistency of the Nuvo drops, like they were harder coming out. The Pops remind me of warmed up icing.

If you swatch them on black card stock they are different coolours
