[@debiv7834]

I know this is 3 yrs ago, but I sure have missed you! So fun, creative and unique techniques! ❤️❤️❤️ I had read you had family issues and very off you tube for a while. I would love to watch all your older film and hope some day you return.❤️👏🏻🙏🏻

Love the idea of using napkin pieces on painty papers. Thanks for the idea.

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

You are so welcome Alisa :) They look pretty with the colors coming through the transparent parts.

[@robinross3183]

Thank you for saying you just arent into the vintage look! And you just dont like brown! Lol! Love to all those art journal ladies that do!❤

[@christicoffey6463]

Oh my goodness, the details and complexity is mind-blowing, I am amazed!

[@annecasillas5402]

Love the idea of strips of flexible paper like that.. You could decorate lots of items with these beautiful mini art pieces. Well done Shel :)

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you Anne :) I think they will be fun to use for sure!

[@mosaic22255]

Very cool! I'm in awe of how great these look after all those layers and colors.

[@darklittlepeople]

loving the "caca" paper ! 😂 (the one with black background and big letters)

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

LOL..funny how that word showed up. Thanks for watching :)

[@yonialvaresleon7367]

Está divino te digo algo que me encanta 😘💗 lo que haces mi inspiración

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Diviértete haciendo algunas de estas cintas Yoni :) ¡Gracias por mirar!

[@Scrapitydoodah]

Love these Shell - I made a stamp cleaner years ago with those paint pads you were talking about and an old DVD box. Still got it somewhere. I forgot all about it. Maybe I’ll give it another go. Xx

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Get that old thing out :) The furry pads make for great stamp swishing! Thanks for watching :)

[@daisycochran4748]

Wow! So many creative ideas. It would be a challenge to have to choose a favorite one. It looked like you were having lots of FUN! It was FUN watching you! 🙃

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thanks so much Daisy😊 It was really fun.

[@renymissos6256]

Seeing them all side-by-side, I think my favorite one is the flowers.

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

I liked the fish one best because of the colors.

[@sherryliberto6749]

The colors are outstanding together. Thanks for sharing 💜💜💜✌️✌️ Sherry

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you Sherry :) I just could not leave the base paper brown...its a thing! LOL

[@normajeanbray5960]

These strips emblazoned on some sort of background would constitute an art piece on its own! Love the work. TFS.

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you Norma Jean :)

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thanks so much Kaylin 😊 This was really fun to play around with!

[@thildahanna7112]

Absolutely Fabulous Shel! This looks simple when you do it but the finished item looks perfect to me. I never know when to stop but you just keep going strong. You amazed me with all the layers. Who would not want this? TFS

[@marieduncan8746]

Love this process! Love them all but if I had to pick a favorite it would be the bright colors and my second would be the fish...💜

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Good choices Marie :) I think the fish are my favorite because of the colors.

[@lynette.]

Knew all that packing paper would come in useful got to try this it looks fun.

This is what I’ll do, when I’m feeling like I don’t know what to do for artsy play. These strips are very cool, Shel!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Great idea Cheryl :) Thanks for watching!

[@thegypsy1968]

I agree 100% what a great idea to do when your not sure what to do..lol!

[@evelynrauseo467]

Love this. So unusual. What an awesome idea. I save those brown papers and use them in so many ways, but never like this. TFS. I did. God bless, stay safe. I am glad I don't have to be the one to choose. They are all gorgeous.

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thanks so much Evelyn :) I to have a whole stash of packing papers. I will be doing this fun activity more!

[@brandonpruett7582]

Your tutorials are the best!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you for watching Teresa :)

[@stormyswann6177]

These are fantastic

[@jillcoldwater1673]

Awesome these are gorgeous!!

[@kerynokeeffe9133]

Thanks, Shel. Another great project to use those leftovers and bits and pieces! Love the results! You’ll have a very clean desktop, soon!!! 😘😀

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thanks so much Keryn 😊 HaHa a clean desk...never going to happen LOL

[@robinalcorn5140]

Working on those long strips seems like a very freeing format. I loved getting to see how you like on the layers! Each strip is awesome. Thanks!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you Robin :) Yes, it was fun and a step away from the same old things.

[@tuthillg]

This is such a fun project! I made some of these about three years ago, but I didn't put a finish coating on them and many of the pieces got stuck together and were unusable. I have since learned to coat them or at least dust some light corn starch over them before putting them away. TFS the inspiration!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Oh no..how sad to lose them. Mine seem to be fine but when I get stickage I rub things down with beeswax.Usually in my journal pages if I use a glossy product. Thanks for watching Gail :)

[@tuthillg]

@@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio Beeswax is a great idea! Thanks for the reminder!

So much fun to watch you make beautiful art! Informative and inspiring. You have so many tools to play with. Would you make a video of your work space and studio? I'd love to see it. Also the window you look out of. 💞

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you Judy :) It my space is ever somewhat clean I will make a video LOL It looks like a tornado hit in there...or maybe tropical storm SHEL.

WOW! How can I watch this video and not collect these materials then whip up the results really fast (like you do)!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

You should do it! So fun and addicting :)

[@valligator1]

That was fun. Thanks, Shel! Do you have any videos of using this sort of medium? Or do you use it for collage projects?

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

I will be using them for collage projects, but I do not currently have a video. I made these for a swap and so I sent them away. Thanks for watching!

[@differenttakethanmost]

This wd be so much faster with a 12x12 gel plate 🤦🏻‍♀️ kinda like building a house with toothpicks lol Gorgeous results, but dang.

[@theconcretebutterfly9747]

Yummmmmmyyyyyyyy!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Thank you Kari :) It was a fun playtime!

Fun with a capital F!

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

You have that exactly right! Thanks for watching :)

[@tonimcglasker6212]

Kinda tickled that you spelled caca on the dark and purple tape. I know. I'm 12.😁

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

LOL..I did not think if that at all when I was just grabbing the bits on the table. Pretty funny coincidence!

[@updatedjustnow271]

😂😂😂😂You spelled CA CA 😂😂😂😂

[@ShelCPaperOcotilloStudio]

Did I? lol Thanks for watching:)
