Nichol, Thank you for taking us along on your journey. You are so creative. LOVE crafting along with you.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

You are so welcome!

[@toninoblet5182]

Great tutorial using the new prize ribbon distress ink from Tim Holtz; I enjoyed the way you use the background stamps, stencils and mix different products from different designers to come up with all these beautiful cards.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Thank you so much!

[@reginabasart5080]

WOW!!! I’ve never seen anyone use as many different products as you just did. Great job, a run for your money. Thank you for sharing, and have s wonderful week.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

You are so welcome! I really wanted to show the versatility and how you could use products (or similar products) you already might own with the new color. 💙

[@bethdelmonte-catanese29]

Of course you did a perfect job at showcasing the colors. Adore every one of your gorgeous cards. Prize Ribbon is definitely the closest to Blueprint Sketch but lately I have been obsessed w chipped sapphire and prize ribbon really reminds me of Chipped sapphire although different they both have such rich deep bluish almost leaning towards the purple family hues. This may seem out f the blue(no pun intended)Tim Holtz is a genius. What's he's done with distress products has revolutionised the craft industry.The actual chemistry of the products in the distress line are like nothing else. I really appreciate what he's done with the entire distress line always keeping it fresh and new is not easy but he manages to create this excitement and mystique when introducing a new color. XOXO

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

I agree completely!

[@cheri6905]

WOW - really FANTASTIC, wonderful cards, Nichol!! LOVE this new Tim Holtz color & the variety of cards you made. May favorites are the large butterfly & 'Merry Christmas' !

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Thanks so much!

[@harriettezmalloy7182]

Really beautiful cards! It’s hard to pick a fav out of them because each one is so lovely. I love the whimsical sea creatures, & then the butterflies are just elegant & stunning, especially the one from Pink Fresh. And you did an amazing job showcasing the new color. Mine will be here Friday & I can’t wait! Thank you for such amazing inspiration.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Thank you so much! Enjoy your new inks!!!

[@terriconrad4612]

Beautifully done once again! I loved the butterfly stamp and stencil....went to SSS and stencil is out....lol. I’ll get it once it’s back. Just gorgeous all around! You must be a teacher.... you do so well instructing and your grammar and enunciation is clear as rain! Thank you for sharing! 💕🙋‍♀️🌴

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

You are so welcome!

[@barcelonachair6487]

Ms Spohr this is awe inspiring. I have not had my creativity engaged like this in a long time. I think when you combined your thought process with multiple ways of creating cards it seems like we are there getting "inky" with you. I know you are demonstrating a new colour today, but could perhaps consider doing this with another colour group like the greens? Rainbows, are beautiful as they are, have been everywhere and it would be wonderful to be taught and inspired by a colour group.

[@judysander2684]

Barcelona said this beautifully and I m in total agreement. Great videos Nichol. So very glad for you, moving up in the industry to be one of the top of inspiring person's on my list. You communicate thought beautifully share insights, your personal creativity, courtesy, kindness and always have your audience forefronted.

[@anabergner7510]

All these backgrounds and cards are stunning.

[@Mom05able]

Amazing! Such beautiful cards! TFS

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Glad you like them!

[@dingfriesaredone]

When I watched Jennifer’s video Blueprint Sketch and Prize Ribbon looked very similar. Your video, however, you can see the difference. I don’t know if it was her lighting or what but I’m glad I saw yours because I wouldn’t have bought it. Love all your cards especially the butterfly and Christmas one.

[@thatladynikki]

You hit it right on the nail! I kept seeing videos and was like Blueprint Sketch and Prize Ribbon are pretty much the same, I agree this video shows the difference.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Thank you SO much! IRL there really is a difference between the 2 colors! 💙

[@Cre8iveCindy]

I love the open grid background. Just the background and sentiment would make a great guy card. You hit it out of the park on showing the new color with the other colors. Thank you.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@bikergirl2006]

These are beautiful cards, Nichol! I am a new subscriber and really enjoyed how you showcased all the blues so we can get a good perspective! It is obvious the many hours you put into your crafting!💗

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

That is SO kind! Thank you so much Lisa!

[@KatGalbasin]

This video really kept you busy. I really like Tim's new color. I had a hunch it was going to be some kind of blue. Beautiful job, as always.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Thanks for watching!

[@paulienvandenbosch3857]

Oh my goodness Nichol... I just LOVE all of your cards and techniques. The heat embossed butterfly & stenciled coloring, o.m.g I just love it. And the Merry Christmas one with the Gina K glitz glitter gel, is my absolute favorite. You have showcased the new (fabulous prize ribbon) distress color so well.... Awesome work!!

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Oh my they're amazing.........your amazing 💖💖💖 what would you say is best to use, distress inks or oxides for blending. Xxx

I like both and alternate between each. Oxides are probably a bit more "forgiving".

[@robynlutes1415]

Could you tell me what color is closest to royal blue? And would it be in distress ink or distress oxides? I need to color paper to stamp and die cut roses. Blend the color like you did on most of your cards. It’s for a wedding card and album that I’ve never made before or the roses and any of the inking. I’m glad I found your tutorial it was a big help.

[@MalisTreasures]

This blue is so pretty! And your cards are so fun! You mentioned that some of your oxide inks need re-inking. If you come across one that you need to reink during a project, is this something you would consider showing in a video? I have a few ink pads myself which I feel could do with some more ink, but I’m not sure when to decide if it’s time or how to actually reink them properly

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

Thank you for the suggestion, Marie! I will keep that in mind for a future video!

[@ritasangels]

Outstanding cards! All of them are amazing and easy to make. Thanks for sharing your talent. I have a question about stencil brushes …. Do you have different brushes for oxide and dye inks or do you use the same. Also do you have a recommendation for storing them. I know Gina K has a rack but if I have different companies is there a holder that I can get for them. Thanks in advance.

[@NicholSpohrLLC]

I have a set for Oxides and a set for dyes. I don't mix them. I use the Gina K racks but it you have other companies brushes I've also used racks from this Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/MakeItbyMarko?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=732154352

Perfect timing! This was my first look at the new color. Love that PFS butterfly set. Definitely on my list now. Do you use Pixie Spray? I always have residue that seems to stick to my cs and I don't love it but I find those delicate stencils tend to shift. All the cards are great!

[@lisakind]

I see lots of crafters using it too, but I find I have the same issues you mentioned. Maybe we are spraying too much onto the stencil. 🤷‍♀️

[@patriciariddle2997]

@@lisakind I've tried spraying lightly and then it doesn't seem to stick. I guess I thought it would a miracle product.

I sometimes use Pixie Spray but I don't like the residue either. I didn't use Pixie Spray for any of these cards.

[@cecilecoonrod4146]

I think it’s intended to stay sticky. I don’t like it either because then the stencil is difficult to store.
