[@tracker5849]

I LOVE HEARING THAT DEEP BASSY BARK!! NOTHING BARKS LIKE A SHEPHERD!! I MISS MY SHEPHERD!!!! I somehow find that bark comforting. Sorry if others are bothered.. I TRULY ENJOY hearing it...but worry you may have attempted intruders. ..

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww me too there bark is perfect and definitely not a reflection of the German shepherd because there beautiful loving animals, and aww no don't worry they're still puppies so they bark and everything 😂 they're thing at the min is birds and my neighbours but we have wagging tails they're just saying hello sweetheart 🥰

I’m so envious of all your stamps. And I have an enormous collection of stamps. This is such an amazing technique, as are all the techniques you use. Thanks for sharing. P.S. Take the time you need, emotions and love take time to process.

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Ooohhh This did turn out stunning! I like when i get those ridges of ink and the little dots from spraying alcohol. So happy to see you back, hope the family is doing well. ❤

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Me too the crusty grunge 😂 it's the best part and thank you so much my lovely we're getting there 🤍

[@maryrasnick7642]

Hello Love love love! If you didn't want shinny, try mat medium? Kerry

[@RockyRoadCreationsbyDiana]

You are so fun to watch. I had my contact paper out playing along with you. I didn't have the same alcohol ink colors, but I think it turned out pretty good so far. I absolutely love your channel.❤❤❤

[@pauladyer9845]

Very cool thank you

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

[@patriciapowell6644]

❤❤❤

[@kcscraps5]

Very cool looks!

[@ericastannard2635]

You are the cat’s meow & the bees knees!! This is so exciting, I’ve never imagined good old contact paper could be this useful! I was a Montessori preschool teacher for many years & in the way-back distant past (before laminating) we used to have to laboriously wrap all our all our little sets of paper cards in contact paper to protect them! It was not a favorite activity for us, but this?! WOW!I just ordered some contact paper from Amazon! Woohoo! Who would have thought?! Do you have any bright colors in Stazon ink? I wonder how bright red or deep blue might look? Amazing, thank you, Toni! Erica❤

[@clairecox4748]

🤩Gorgeous, Toni!

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Thank you lovely ☺️

[@maureenwilson6951]

Fabulous i have seen this done on sellotape but on the contact sheets is certainly worth doing .. so exciting to try ...❤

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

It's definitely easier to store then strips of sellotape lol and I love having big sheets so you can cut what ever shape you need ☺️

[@natalieanneshaw7879]

Good evening toni hope you r well 😊❤

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Good evening Natalie I am thank you I hope you are too 🥰

[@CRAFTICORI]

stunning results! Have these stamps and cananot wait to try. Love your enthusiasm as you are doing a make!

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww thank you so much sweetheart ☺️

[@ingrid_letters]

Happy to hear your voice again😍 Wonderful techniques!😍

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww thank you so much sweetheart 🥰

[@sharonbray121]

What a fabulous technique - I’m thinking I might use the background for specimen cards TFS🙏

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Ohhh yes they'd be great for that and thank you so much ☺️

[@greetleemans2527]

Love this 🤎💛 enjoyed it the first time on the retreat 👌

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww thank you so much ☺️

[@helenyocum4970]

Love your experiments!! ❤

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww thank you so much ☺️

[@gillianwalker4766]

These turned out really cool! I don't know if we've got Book Binding sheets in the USA but we do have contact paper. I wonder if that will work as well?

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

It's the same thing sweetheart ☺️

[@bonnerdebbie]

I just started, but Tim Holtz would be so comfortable with your palette!!! I bought a pack of papers from a local charity shop here in Florida, includes passports, primary school report cards, international driver's license, lots of pictures and so forth. I don't normally make junk journals, do you have any ideas on what I should do with these treasures?

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

This is definitely my kinda palette too 😂 ohhh wow sounds like you got some right goodies, you could use them as ephemera or backing papers journal pages etc 🥰

[@3rdeyeopen802]

So fantastic! I love it! Can't wait to try this 😊👍❤️

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww thank you so much I hope you have fun experimenting 🤩

[@MargaDounen]

Love it I also stamped on it.

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Isn't it great 🤩 the possibilities are endless 🥰

[@MargaDounen]

Yess the are I have a big rol so I can play 😀

[@SylviaCostello-lu1bu]

Great technique, I wonder if you could use a Alcohol marker and draw a map of soughts without disturbing with background grunge tfs sylvi

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Ohh that a cool idea definitely worth a try and Thank you so much ☺️

[@debbiebaker4515]

Now I have to go buy some rolls of plastic!!

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

😂😂😂 you definitely do I brought a 10m roll it'll last me for years (hopefully) 😂

[@tracker5849]

Unroll it 24 hours before use..lay flat and place huge heavy book or iron skillet etc. Big n heavy!! Leave for 24 hours

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

That's a fantastic idea thank you so much ☺️

[@belindazimmer2107]

Wowser!! I’m so excited to try this. I have a roll of that exact type of clear contact paper and all of the supplies you used on hand…now how lucky is that! Your makes are such yummy grungy looking pieces…so excited! Thank you so much for sharing and I know what I’m going to be doing very soon…lol. Do be careful my dear with using the alcohol ink in a spray bottle because it’s the same as putting blending solution in one. I sure want you to be safe cause you know I care about you. 🥰

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Aww that's brilliant you'll have so much fun there's so many possibilities I know you do and it's ok I put it back into its own bottle once I'd finished my lovely but thank you so much 🥰

[@ellief3177]

Just some thoughts...I wondered whether it would be as effective to stamp on the card and then apply the coloured contact paper over the stamping? I'm not sure whether the stamping would be covered up too much though? Or would a coat of clear gesso on top of the contact paper work to make the surface less slippery? However, that could make it more difficult to stamp cleanly... Thanks for this, Toni. It opens up lots of options!

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

I did find it wasn't too slippy tbh, I mean you could do it what ever way you want that's the beauty of it, I did think about mod podge making it less glossy on the project. It was just something I wanted to try just to see if it was possible but both ways are definitely cool, it really does open up lots of possibilities ☺️

[@suziescrapbook3574]

The compass that you used last is not linked and I am having a hard time finding it. I know it’s older but if you find it, would you please link? This IS better than the cello tape, I agree! Love it!

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

It's not Tim Holtz but it is Stampers Anonymous it's one of there Classics I can't remember which one but if you go on stampers anonymous they'll be on there 🥰

[@suziescrapbook3574]

@@CraftyDecorbyToni oh ok, thanks so much.

[@leslieheilman7938]

Absolutely brilliant experimentation!! I think I could sit & watch the inks meld all day! So very cool! That clock face is just too yummy! Love it all ! ❤❤❤ (did I use enough exclamation marks??😬)

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

You can never use too many 😂🥰 thank you so much my mind went straight to my stamps what could I cover next 🤔☺️

[@WayneJordan71]

Will have to try this technique when I get the contact paper later this week. Hoping that I can use Ranger Archive ink instead of the Staz-on, since I already have those inks. I've picked alcohol inks based on what you've used so I already have most of the ones you used in this video. Thanks for the ideas.

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

I reckon archival will if it doesn't I'm sure it'll only need setting with a heat tool Sounds like your ready to go have lots of fun 🤩

[@WayneJordan71]

@@CraftyDecorbyToni Update! Tried this last night with Archive ink and let it dry overnight and it seems like it worked! When stamping it seemed sticky with the stamp. Just need to practice the ink grunging technique some more to get process right for making the nice designs. Thanks for the experimenting and sharing of all the stuff you do.

[@leahwebb9622]

Do you think the ink will scratch off when in the journal? It's fascinating. Ideas are going crazy in my head ..thank you

[@CraftyDecorbyToni]

Mine hasn't and it's been a while ☺️

[@leahwebb9622]

Thank you so much.. I love your style and watching a talented lady
