Kristina, a tip for keeping gel pens from drying out. If you've noticed that the pens work great when you first get them, but some end up drying out quickly. It's because the pens come with that tiny piece of wax covering the tip; save that and put it back on the tip when you're finished. If you lose it, a tiny bit of polymer clay do the trick.
Same. I can't draw a straight line with a ruler! I'm getting out my square dies instead and raise one of those squares with foam pads. It is a lovely card though.
Kristina this card is so beautiful. Your creativeness just astound me. You are such an amazing artist, and YOU never, never disappoint. Great tips. Always inspire me.
Hi Kristina! Wow, I loved this card so much, I just had to give it a go! I used different paints (Kuretake) as I don't have the the new ones you are using but the results were really good. I also used different stamps & card stock. There were a few "issues" along the way but I worked around them, ah the joy of card crafting! It truely was a lovely journey and I was really pleased with the end result. I Sent it to my neice for her birthday. I've learned a lot from you over the years over here in the UK, thank you so much for sharing your talent and giving me (& everyone else) such a wonderful gift. Xxxxx
So agree with you here, the card is gorgeous💜 Really enjoyed watching you create today. A big yes to this type of card video, so please make this a new series. Cheers Lisa
I love the colors in this card. And, I'm always amazed to watch you draw perfectly straight lines. I've also watched you draw perfect circles on other videos. I'm sure that took a bit of practice, but it's still fun to watch.
Thanks for the light touch tip with gel pens, especially the white pen. Have mostly been using gold only and sometimes silver because I could never get the white one to work.
I want to thank you for inspiring me to take on watercolor painting. I never believed I could be a painter and express creativity that way, but you inspired me to try again and I can say that I absolutely love it. And I've been able to pass on that love to my daughter. So thank you!
Simply stunning, Kristina! I never really thought past the watercolour process but the stamping and detail really gave the ‘wow factor’. Thanks so much!
Absolutely gorgeous card Kristina! I love the metallic paint for an accent! Also love the tip about taping off the glue before putting the pieces together! I definitely need to remember that!
This is the most beautiful card! I took your Simply Watercolor class and with a few changes it could be made in that style. I am however trying to find an easier way to create the boxes, I would end up using a whole roll of tape.
Beautiful design!...as always. Love watching your creative process. Question.......why not just stamp with white ink instead of purple and then gel pen on top?
I have found when I do that with stamping ink first than the white gel pen, it let's just a little glamour of the ink that's under the white gel pen come through almost like if it's a sheer curtain🥰❣. Some of the middle to dark colors of ink that's under the gel pen are really quite beautiful. I have loved art my whole life, because it's such an interesting and magical experience just waiting for the explosion of Beautiful art coming to life.🥰🥰🥰🥰❤❣ Like painting wet on wet that's like Christmas just waiting for it to dry😊❤❣
I love how you did the watercoloring, Kristina! I'd have been using my ruler like a mad girl, rather than just eyeballing. I just don't trust my eyes! LOL But I think the card came out great. The gold paint adds such an elegant touch, & I like how the white greeting still stands out on the white paper since you stacked it up. Thanks for showing how to do "cheater" doodling, too. I think that really helps those of us who might be intimidated by the thought of freehand drawing on a piece. I'm also glad you had such upbeat music. This week has been bad with my depression, & I just couldn't take somber or even calming music. Anyway, hope you have an awesome day, & happy Fourth of July! :)
Very interesting the way you did this design. It came out really great. Not sure what I was expecting but I love the card. TFS. Hope you have a great 4th of July.
That card should be framed. No words necessary. I had no idea what you were doing but I am in awe. It so beautiful.

Lovely card but WAY above this stamper's abilities....starting with making all those perfect squares! It was fun watching the process...
Same. I can't draw a straight line with a ruler! I'm getting out my square dies instead and raise one of those squares with foam pads. It is a lovely card though.
Kristina this card is so beautiful. Your creativeness just astound me. You are such an amazing artist, and YOU never, never disappoint. Great tips. Always inspire me.
So amazed at how you can draw straight lines free hand. I can’t even do it with a ruler. Lol.
She can also freehand a perfect circle. I find that amazing also!
I’m obsessed with your arts
Thank you for the gelly roll tip.

Beautiful design!...as always. Love watching your creative process. Question.......why not just stamp with white ink instead of purple and then gel pen on top?
You could do that. I just didn't have a white ink handy.
Thank you for replying. Ok, I get it. I just thought there was some special trick I was missing. This old brain does that to me sometimes. Lol
