Using Distress Ink to create a Rain and Sun Scene: New Furniture

[@brendajennings5438]

Beautiful card! LOVE the way you created the rays without stencils...it's nice to see you creating things without special tools. Although stencils are wonderful, I'm beginning to feel overwhelmed with supplies. Also, I love that you use all of your materials and aren't wasteful. You were talking about your husband's frugality...that's a great quality. I grew up in a rural setting where "use it up, wear it out" was a way of life. Everything wasn't right at our fingertips and we learned to be creative, make do! Those skills have served me well in life. People think they need way more stuff than they really do. ;) It's wonderful to see you being imaginative and using what's at hand!

Beautiful card, Kelly! I always enjoy watching you create scene cards and color and appreciate how frugal (cheap) you are! My hubby and I have been married for over 30 years and only just purchased our first couch (sectional, actually). Always before we had hand me downs from someone. It was so exciting to get something new that we had chosen! Enjoy your furniture!

Love how the sunlight is on this card in contrast to the stormy side. The sunny side glows and the three different ways you did rain drops is very effective

It’s always uplifting to see a beautiful rainbow, God’s promise😊. Love your card and thanks for explaining the how’s and why’s of your techniques.

[@juliedet8121]

I love the sun rays. So realistic. You are so talented. I can't seem to get the hang of coloring, even after watching you a million times. You make it look so easy and it always turns out perfectly. I will keep trying, but I'll never be a Kelly Taylor!

[@AggieScrapMom]

This card is absolutely amazing!!! It just not only is artistically fantastic, everything it embodies just brings out the good feelings among the turmoil There's always more sunshine and rainbows after the storms! All of your cards are awesome, but this one is definitely at the top!!!

[@dreamsunltd]

Glistening of the raindrops??? Beautiful card!

[@stefperry4142]

What a spectacular card Kelly! It is so beautiful and very inspiring with the storm passing to reveal the sun and rainbow. I appreciate your discussion about not being hung up on perfection. Similar to what you've said in the past about comparison, both are thieves of joy, and definitely killers of enjoying the process of just being creative. Thanks for sharing your beautiful card! 💖

[@melodieisreal5933]

I love, love, love this card! Your one layer cards are superb! Your coloring is devine!

[@coolstamper]

Kelly...you are sooooo talented and make the most beautiful cards!!! 💕

[@cecilecoonrod4146]

Miss you! Hope Peanut is doing well and little bump too. I guess P is out if school and enjoying summer. Very sorry about your grandmother but I’m sure your strong faith is helping you thru. Stay safe and put your feet up!

[@scrappytailscrafts8732]

This card is so beautiful I love how the sun rays came out! 🥰

[@shellyray2416]

Hearing all about your beautiful house would you entertain the idea of a vlog style house tour? I'm sure everyone would love it!!! 😘

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Maybe one day!

[@aufan7134]

I have just discovered your videos , and have just started getting into card making. I’m a little late to the game as I am 71 yo. I have to say, of the many videos I have been watching, I am totally enamored by your work. Not only are you an incredible artist, I feel like I’ve known you for years! Even with our age difference, I feel like we are kindred souls. We are so much alike. Guess what I’m saying is you are so friendly, and best of all, not a perfectionist. Being a newbie, watching some of these creators makes me not think I can enjoy art because I couldn’t rise to their expectations. You make it look fun. Seriously, you are fantastic with your coloring. Thanks for sharing your life with us,

[@shadowguard3578]

Spectacular card! Ink blending and Copic coloring tutorial in one card was so useful, thank you.

[@angelaadams9806]

Before I get into watching the rest of the making of this card, I just wanted to say, that I for one really appreciate the fact that you are not as wasteful as some. I use up as much of my paper(or whatever) as I can. I'm sure your card is going to be Beautiful also. I always like them.

[@susanrichard5534]

Beautiful card and love your Copic colouring style..... enjoy the stories too 🥰

[@heleenglazenburg1405]

What a spectaculair card.Love the ink blending.I always find it hard to find good solide furniture.We brought a sofa.We really likes IT and were proud of IT.It was also expensive.After only 18 month this sofa was complety damaged and broken.I was so angry and went to the store but they told is that the damaged was normal in this short time.I was so angry I bought a real cheap sofa and that is 5 years ago.We still love the sofa and never had a problem with IT.

[@dotydiva]

[@countrymouse47]

Beautiful results! Amazing technique with the sun rays!

[@laceyy7151]

Love your cards as always. Yes Covid has definitely affected home improvement project. Took two months to get a vanity and then they still push the date back 2 separate time. Don’t get me started on the vanity mirror 🤦‍♀️ But its finally all done and looks great!!!!

[@kaiteringelman4218]

I always love your beautiful cards, your coloring is always relaxing to watch. I've learned so much from it and become so much more confident with my alcohol markers. But I'm not gonna lie, its story time that keeps me coming back for every video you post. I just love listening to whatever story you have. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. ❤️

[@taximomable]

Kelly, you are adorable. I learn so much from you. I love that you accept not being perfect. Love your cards and your stories❤️

[@lisap.7981]

I love this card Kelly!!! I’ve been wanting to do something similar... but I didn’t have the right stamp/stencil for a good mass of clouds! AND I had NO idea how to color storm clouds!!! With some practice I think I’ll be able to use your base ideas & put my own spin on them!!! Again I love this one!!! It’s gorgeous!!!⛈💨🌤☀️🌈

[@jilliancrown5150]

Wow that is so cool! If only I could do cards like you do🥰

[@carlenejake]

Love story time! Great card.

[@tootsiebelle8891]

Love the card! Great learning how to make sun rays. My husband also hates sitting & standing. He eats in bed and will leave the bathroom sink to lay in the bed so he can brush his teeth. Ugh! 🤣

[@mrspickle8285]

Another stunning card, but this one has so much more... Its one of those cards that captures all the feels, its so very emotive! Thank you for creating, sharing and explaining your way through it, your experience with cardmaking just helps us all so very much. And lets face it, story time is just icing on the cake :)

[@westonjaxx7286]

Beautiful card! Love this scene❤️

[@sheilagraber5577]

That’s beautiful

[@wendy8184]

Fabulous!

[@DebadooCreates]

Wow, I knew you had super bright lights especially at the top, but didn't realize how bright until today when you were blending the twisted Citron I looked at the ink pad and the case looked Gray at least on my TV, and I thought well that's not an oxide ink. Then I saw the lid was black lol. Love 💜 this card soooo much! How is Gram? & did y'all get your pool yet? I'm guessing not. It seems like I'm caught up on vids, but if I am that means there hasn't been one for 1.5 months. I'll refresh to see if it's just not showing them. Hope everything is ok.

[@mariespalding2327]
