    Excellent ideas. You are very creative and talented. And for the people being rude complaining about stupid stuff like dirty fingers, bad music choice, and too fast. First of all its crafting ya get dirty, second there is a mute button and surprisingly you all do have volume buttons on your phones, tablets and computers that you can use and lastly the video is self explanatory it doesn't need dialog or slowed down. No one needs to see every little detail of each step to know whats going on in a video, if you need that much direction from someone else then you are not using your own creativity

      Couldn't agree more. What the heck is wrong with people? So a creative person goes to the trouble to share some pretty ingenious tips and tricks (and she clearly has mad skills) and some have to nitpick and criticize? If you don't like the tip, don't use it, but don't criticize the person sharing. Thanks for saying what I was thinking!

    • @giogiocraft
      @giogiocraft  Před 3 lety

      I really don't know, sorry. Maybe It could work if you paint with white gesso over the top of your pouring, just the shape of your leave, and than try to do the transfer. Make some experiments, before!😊

    ciao Giovanna, ho visto le tue magie, tu usi un colore apposito per trasferire le foto o va bene qualsiasi acrilico? Mi sembra di aver capito una cosa importante sia non far asciugare il colore se no non si trasferisce sulla carta. Ci sono diverse misure del foglio di Gel?

    • @giogiocraft
      @giogiocraft  Před 6 lety

      Per trasferire le immagini uso il gesso, contenente più adesivo rispetto ai colori acrilici normali. Deve essere bagnato. Oppure puoi usare il gel medium o gli appositi prodotti per il trasferimento.
