[@leeminer1939]

tHIS CARD IS GORGEOUS. I thought the paper would be too dark but its not. Tiny gold butterflies in the same color as the gold splatters is genius.

Gorgeous Amy! I’ve got to go back and watch how you made your palette. TFS❤️❤️❤️

Lovely!

Pretty!!

[@saradahlblom4639]

Love it! Have got to try the kraft mediastock like this...

[@shirleymcneely1994]

So pretty. Didn't know there was gold vellum, need to get some when in stock

[@bethholt2245]

This is so beautiful! I love that craft paper, the gold vellum, and how you created your pallet out of the distress watercolor pencils .

[@hazelsavill1497]

Beautiful Amy. I think I'd like it more if here wasn't so much splatter though. I think it detracts from those lovely poppies

[@cynthiapowell-cobb2742]

This card is so beautiful! I love all the flourishes! Your work is impeccable.

[@marilynfisher739]

Wow! Didn’t think I needed this stamp set as I have a set of poppies from another company but these poppies are so lovely…💜💙💚💛🧡💓

[@MrsWookiesWanderings]

Ooooh - I’d like to put in a Patreon request ;) But I’m also going to CASE that once my kit gets here, I love off the edge florals and already planned two sketches for this stamp set. You’ve given me a third!

[@jharvey93]

Beautimous!!

[@shellycarter155]

Love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@katiemclaneak5182]

Holy Moley! What a beautiful and just slightly unusual card…love the repeat of images on inside and envelope! How is peanut and the rest of the crew? Miss story time. 😊

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

lol that's not me - you're thinking of Kelly Taylor ;) ;)

[@amy29048]

I must have fallen out the loop somewhere bc I don't ever remember gold vellum. Well, another trip to the craft store. 😊😊

[@barbarahill6365]

Amy you probably know this, but I’ve used the water brush with water in it. The WC teacher I had said leave the water in…well, it stopped working. I live in hard water area and thought that was the problem.. nope, it’s mold! So there are KZbin videos out there, but you disassemble the pens take the fibers out, put in a bleach and water solution. Try to scrub the water holder part, dry and reassemble. Moral of the story for me is not to leave the water in the pen after you finish painting. BTW I’m always insecure painting on Kraft! Thanks for showing the distress oxide, it’s so much brighter I guess because it has the combo dye/pigment. 😂

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

I use distilled water in my water brushes and spray bottles and have mentioned it many times in videos - for this very reason. I've never had an issue and have had distilled water in them for YEARS now that I just keep refilling and have never needed to empty or clean them

[@barbarahill6365]

@@PrairiePaperandInk Thanks Amy!

[@marcydobbs1653]

Why do i forget vellum? I love the look every time i see you use it. Butterflies on my next floral card!

[@cathylaycock5598]

Love! 😊❤️🇨🇦

[@ladyrph]

I love the card!! Made 8 Easter cards yesterday and messed up at the end by stamping the massive inside sentiments in the wrong side!! Aaahhj!!😢😢😢

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

hope you were able to just stamp them separately and adhere them on top - that's what I do!!

[@ladyrph]

@@PrairiePaperandInk Cut the front of the card off and adhered it to another card base and this time stamped the right side! 😂😂🥳🥳👍🏻👍🏻

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

that works!!! lol!

[@sheridanielson3740]

Amy love this card! But question? You say you used watercolor pencils and to watch it sure looked like paints with a aqua brush?? And I have the vellum on my list for Create so save some for me!!

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

I linked to the playlist at the end of this video - first video in that playlist shows how I sharpened the watercolor pencils and created this palette with the shavings. So yup all I have to do is swirl my little water brush in the wells and paint with them and I MUCH prefer using them this way!

[@sheridanielson3740]

@@PrairiePaperandInk oh ok! Thank you!

[@zoeshields6104]

Amy is it possible to make your own gold vellum by ink dragging with metallic ink on regular vellum? Have you ever tried it?

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

nope and I won't - metallic inks take forever to dry on just regular card stock and will take even longer on vellum. It won't look the same either. Doesn't mean you can't try it - I just find it easier to order it :)

[@zoeshields6104]

@@PrairiePaperandInk Yep ordering it would be easier for sure. I might try it because I'm curious how it looks and if it warps too.

[@bobbyfitzgerald4165]

Hey Amy, I also like to heat emboss my images before I color them to keep my images from smearing, but I have issues with the embossing powder leaving spots on my images and the color won't lay down. Like when I use white or clear embossing powder and try to watercolor over it, i have white spots of cardstock in my images where the embossing powder set over my image even though I use my powder tool liberally. Any suggestions? Do you have this issue too? I love the shine of heat embossing, but I want my images to be fully covered with pigment without spots.

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

using an anti-static powder tool, and then tapping off the excess, tilt the card stock in the light before heating and remove any excess bits with a small dry paintbrush. That said I just go with it if there's spots here and there that I missed and got embossed and are repelling whatever I'm coloring with - perfection is overrated ;)

[@bobbyfitzgerald4165]

@@PrairiePaperandInk thanks Amy. I will try those tips!
