Tim Holtz Doodle Greetings 1 & 2 | AmyR 2016 Christmas Card Series #6

[@Horsewoman-pt2ku]

Love the tree stencils with white grit paste. I am going to brush on matt medium over inked trees before I add white texture paste. Great idea on the perfect pearls. Love the foil look.

[@cherylshephard3923]

to avoid the texture paste from pulling up base color of the trees, I clear embossed the overlay part which then sealed the ink under the embossed area and then added the Texture Paste on the clear embossed area...worked perfectly that way and the Texture Paste (actually, I used SnowTex) stayed bright white with any bleeding of the green into it.

[@sharw2789]

I love how your version turned out so much!!

[@nanspan9065]

would mica powdwe work the same ? excellent video thank you .

[@babamc4]

Oh wow I love these! I have to get some of the Delicata inks and the perfect pearls, I love the look, you're right it looks like foiling! As a relatively new card maker I hadn't seen the point of the Delicata inks as I had a few types of metallic embossing powders. I TOTALLY get it now! Thanks as always!

[@rainbowferndesigns]

I love the look on kraft :) stands out so nice.

[@lindajamme5459]

I love your videos and I think what I like best is your voice. You have such a calming voice and the cutest giggle. Thanks for all the teaching techniques. You ended up with a couple of beautiful cards!

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

LOL if you only knew how much I struggled back when I started on KZbin and HATING my voice - it took me a long time and a lot of videos to finally be able to just do them how they are now ;) :) - so thank you!! :)

[@vickielee2433]

In love with these cards!! Awesome!

[@valsfaves787]

These cards are very cool! Love the various techniques you used...with great results!

[@RoseMaryBowen]

Beautiful cards. Love how the trees turned out & the Perfect Pearls gave a great looking shine.

[@PatriciaRae77]

The snow effect is beautiful! I need to try stenciling.

[@LindaWvdP]

Very pretty cards! Totally forgot about perfect pearls, 😆 loved the foiled look it gave the backgrounds! Tfs

[@triciaann8775]

These cards look fabulous!

[@Pamslife]

Wow 😳 they came out so beautiful ‼️

[@mariafernandez6537]

Very elegant and simple. Kudos!

[@LindaTCornwall]

If you water down pva glue 50/50 the apply it to the trees then wait for it to dry it will then create a barrier to stop the dye leeching into the paste..

[@peggycrowley9534]

Oh my, what a stunning and creative card. I think Kristina was the first card-making You-tuber I discovered. You two are my favorites..

[@karilightfoot6461]

If I don't have a pallet knife, can I use a regular plastic knife?

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

yes - you just won't have as much control and ease of application - plastic palette knives are pretty cheap

[@beckyjomentzer9060]

WOW! Love these cards! When I watch your videos you get my creative juices flowing! Thanks! Hugs!!

[@DebBaconPersonal]

I really like this card. Thanks!

[@AmaranthineArt]

Well Amy...I gotta say that these cards are absolutely "stunning"! You definitely have a talent for getting me to create. I don't know about you, but the holiday sales this weekend have definitely had an impact on my bank account! Looks like everyone is getting socks this year (kidding)! TFS

[@julieleonard6288]

I love the delicata (sp?) ink....I might have to purchase a set of perfect pearls now lol. As always....beautiful cards!

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

everyone should own PP - they last forever and they're just fun to play with ;)

[@marydiehm9354]

Beautiful cards! Love your videos! Such great ideas! I do have a question for you...do you have the lawn fawn shammy? If so, how do you Store it so it stays moist? I prefer it over baby wipes just have a hard time keeping it stored and moist for continued use.

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

you don't want it to stay moist - or at least not long term b/c it will start to smell and go rank :P. I know some people are using decorative salt cellars to store theirs as it gives it a little "protection" during crafting so it doesn't dry out as quickly. I just keep mine in a large tea cup and spritz it with water if it's starting to dry out

[@marydiehm9354]

Prairie Paper & Ink (AmyR) thanks for tip! I will just keep my distress sprayer filled and spray the shammy when I need it

[@youcteena]

I have the other stuff. Have to get that stencil. My hubby may take away my iPad privileges LOL

[@tudivinotesoro]

Beautiful

[@lauramurphy438]

[@gabriellaamos3474]

I watched Kristina's video too

[@MyagkihD]

beauty!!!

[@SanSan-hz3cp]

Lovely. tfs

[@Kiirree325]

I'm still waiting for them to ship my kit.. i ordered it last Friday! I think the day of it the day after ur video about it!

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

they said they got slammed with orders last week when the kit was released - they expected it to stay in stock until this weekend and it sold out in like 2/3 days - so I assume they have a ton of backlog to work through to get all the orders shipped out

[@Kiirree325]

hopefully thats soon cuz id really like to use it for my christmas cards this year

[@Kiirree325]

thank u for letting me know tho! :)

[@nanspan9065]

would mica powders stick to stamped image, i have had some for years ,never used them, have you any card ideas using Mica powder .loved the video thank you x

[@PrairiePaperandInk]

they'd stick but they'd brush/rub off easily after the ink fully dried - I said in the video Perfect Pearls have a binder in them which makes them perfect for a technique like this. And no I don't have any ideas for mica powders sorry I don't own any

[@nanspan9065]

Prairie Paper & Ink (AmyR) thank you for your reply i will get perfect pearls it looks lovely, really enjoyed watching you. x

[@colemyst]

Oh I love these!!
