[@nicolettevandenbos7637]

I dont have resin to make the jewel in the center of the stone. So I got creative with an aurora gel nailpolish.. Multiple layers create a beautiful jewel too! With 3 layers it was already just like an opal, but I think I will do 6 layers on the rock. Will start with this tutorial tomorrow, love this! Thanks again Rachel 😘

[@shirleypotasnik305]

Awesome! My watercolors just arrived today, along with my mold and opal glitter😍. Can’t wait to get started on some projects for Christmas. A friend requested a memorial pet stone for a pup she just lost😢. I’m so sorry for your loss. I so know the sadness you and fam are feeling. It’s a total heart break. 😢. My pup, Abbey will be waiting for yours on the other side of the rainbow bridge and they shall play and be pain-free 😊. Hugs to you.

[@lindasmith9468]

A true treasure! I actually started watching your tutorials and started painting again because I wanted to get enough practice in, and gain enough skill to paint portraits of my two dogs that we had to say goodbye to in 2020 (one in January and one in November) . I believe I am skilled enough now as I have done some commissioned pieces that have gone over very well, but I haven’t been able to bring myself to start my own paintings yet. And, yes I do think they will be done on rocks! Our pets are such important members of our families. I am so very sorry for your loss 💜

[@Kim-n-Brian]

Ooooh my goodness...that was the most satisfying video...just watching it sparkling and dancing around...and MINT GREEN !!!! That was awesome.... came out GORGEOUS 😍 when I was about 8 my mom used to say she never seen a child who couldn't wear enough sparkly jewelry ...lol...still me today !

[@karenwelch4537]

Beautiful stone!!! I will have to try and find a similar mold to make a few gems. I have been debating about the watercolors for awhile now but I think the debate is over 😂 they are stunning. Owning a furbaby of my own & have had to make that heartbreaking decision in the past, I truly understand the difficult past weekend. It is a true act of love to think what’s best for them before your own feelings. When you are up to it & some time has passed, I am sure you will create an incredible memorial stone with your endless amazing talent. So ver sorry for your loss. 💝🐾🌈

[@stephaniedavey]

Just beautiful as always. I have missed making comments on your work Rachel, I actually lost my comments for a couple of months! Something to do with my diminishing brain cells no doubt. I want you to know just how much I appreciate you Rachel - your clips are always lovely to watch. Your shining personality paired with your amazing talent and generosity are a total winner. I was impressed by the clip you posted recently about where you source your rocks. Wow, what a stunning place, you lucky girl. The snow looks surreal to me here in Western Australia, especially as we are finally heading into our no doubt blistering summer.

[@missymoonwillow6545]

Gosh this one is so beautiful on many levels. As someone who is learning the japanese heart sutra chant, this rock here represents the wheel of life, and could help focus those prayers. As someone who's interested in Geography and maps, it could be a mystical magical compass. For the astrologer in me, I see the circle of zodiac constellations, and who doesn't love rainbows and glitters? The opal in the center, nice touch! Rachel, you are such an amazing talent. Thank you for showcasing your creations with us. Very lovely to experience you painting them. I find it calming. Much love from NE Washington (if you ever travel down this way for fairs or anything, do let me know! Would love to show up and buy a few of your rocks).

[@rachelsrockscanada]

Thank you so much!!!🥰🥰🥰 I will definitely let you know if I ever travel that way!!!

This may sound weird but I've been asking my mom, who passed in 2011, for a sign from her and I told her she had to show me something opal (her birthstone) and I gave her 48 hours to do it. I honestly thought it wouldn't happen but I was on TikTok and I got the notification from YT to watch your video. Thanks for your tutorials and thanks mom! Oh, and my daughter's name is Rachelle but she goes by Rachel for business reasons.

[@RunAMuckGirl2]

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your pup. 😢 I just adore your gems and I can't tell you how excited I am to find we can get real Opal chips. I bet I can even add some of that glow in the dark powder to a gem with Opel in it! I have an idea for a holiday painting: swirls of frost like on a window? So frost blue back ground and white frost/tree like patterns. What do you think? I don't think you have done that yet.

Do you put resin on top of the opal? Wasn't sure if we go around it and no resin on it... or cover it as well as the rock and crystals. Thanks!!

[@bonnie2057]

im trying to get started hopefully i will create a lot of beautiful rock art pieces like yours

[@lizzedwards5994]

The water color sparkle is wow I love how it moves when u put it in the rock I work with resin and casting resin in molds I’d love to use something like that but not sure which would work I know resin and water don’t mix and if they are water colours then they prolly won’t work with resin but I’d love to color my resin with this

[@rachelsrockscanada]

I only use resin to seal my rocks. I use Art resin. I do have a tutorial on how I resin my rocks, and I've never had an issue with my watercolours running or moving at all.❤️❤️❤️

[@tracywise8806]

Love love love, Rachel! I came to see how you outline your crystals since you don’t put them on until after resin and then….😮. I solved my crystal problem by using your method of applying them after I resin. Soooooo how do you resin after and not lose them in the resin? Losing all the facets. I know you can’t resin heavy over them because they smooth out. Do you just brush around them? Please share. ❤❤

[@janetblakeman2949]

So much info and love in your videos! Wondering if you used fine, medium or large grade of opal. So sorry to hear about your loss, my heart goes out to you and your family.

Another Absolutely amazing and inspiring tutorial. I love those new paint yout using. They same group for background painting. Have you ever really used them for anything else? I ask only because they seem so opaque. My deepest condolences to you and your family for the loss of your fur baby.

[@lizziebeggimbo]

Beautiful, Rachel do u have any tips for resining over a glitter pebble? My resin never quite coats it or domes over it. It settles around the glitter and doesn't look good.

I love your work, but cannot find any examples of dot mandalas on white anywhere. I've made a small wooden mushroom for a fairy house and would love to use dot mandala art on the roof, but its my first attempt at this kind of thing so I have not much idea how to go about it. I don't think black background would work. Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

[@candykelly2705]

[@farahclay912]

Gorgeous! Did you stick Swarovski crystals then resined? I thought you said the resin would dull them?

[@rachelsrockscanada]

I did yes! It does take some of the facets away but it keeps them on for good!! Great for Rocks that are going outside.

[@susanpettit8751]

These watercolours are so gorgeous. I bought the fairy colours - when I put them on a heart (made from happy dotting company) and did a couple of coats their were some divets in the stone and the paint became a bit chalky. Has this happened at all with you? Was wondering if it was too much watercolour paint or maybe the black acrylic paint wasn’t dried enough? Anyways, will try again. THIS IS GORGEOUS.! Thank you again for another wonderful tutorial and so sorry for the loss of your beloved pup.❤️💐

[@alisonswennumson3694]

Not that it’s helpful, but I ran into the same problem when I used the fairy colors. I am thinking it’s because I used a glossy black paint on the rock I was painting. I am going to try it again with a matte black and see if it helps.
