In fact I have everything except the brilliance inkpad. Glad you did it on the gelli plate card as I don't do very well on the clarity card, just wrecked one of my good backgrounds that I had done with alcohol inks with cllingfilm. Seem to always smudge the stamping even when I've tried it out first on spare card. Never mind looking forward to trying this. Thanks for a great demo.xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01983486787561915557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-46865831351678827842015-03-10T19:42:11.857+00:002015-03-10T19:42:11.857+00:00Hi Barbara, I hope you are well and have had a goo...Hi Barbara, I hope you are well and have had a good weekend.

Ever impatien I set about cutting holes out of varying pieces of card, cardboard and paper. Spent so much time cutting holes that didn't work as I wanted that I actually completed nohing but littering my carpet with pices of paper.

Thank you very much. Your youtubes are always so professionally done, while being very informative and entertaining /fun too. And it's very easy to see exactly what you are doing. In the past few months I've watched one or two other persons youtubes when needing a visual of something, which really made me realise just how good and well made yours are! A truly invaluable source for me, and I'm sure many others, who have nowhere else to learn from. A huge thank you from me/<br />love Brenda xx <br />p.s. my sleeves are forever getting in the ink /paint /glue /chalk....
