    I really enjoyed these ideas! The scraping paint one is so cool! I love all of yours. They turned out so good. I did this a while back to an Arteza spiral sketchbook with gesso and then paint and it made the areas near the spirals like lift. Thank you for the inspiration!!! 💜💜💜

    Hello Kirsten, I have a question: "Did you use acrylic gouache as a base? Can I also make the base with regular acrylic paint so that the acrylic markers still stick well?" Love from the Netherlands 🖍️🖌️🎨

    Good morning Kristina, you asked why I (the viewer) sketch. Ever since I was a toddler I have been fascinated by colors, whether with pencils or fabrics, it doesn't matter. I used to receive very good quality pencils from a family member and then there was no stopping them. Now I am 60+ and after a stormy life I have found peace again while working in my sketch books. It processes traumas and gives joy. Even though my works are quite simple but it is so wonderful to create. Love from the Netherlands 🖍️🖌️🎨🌞

    Good morning Kristina, I am so happy that I came across your RUclips channel. What a pleasant voice you have to listen to and watch your many ideas.

    I love all of these ideas, Kristina! I want to do all of them! I especially loved the tone of the dark color used on the second cover (the abstract one in which you used the gift card.) The stark bright white of the gesso and the cool-toned lavender bring out the blue tone of Payne's Grey. I love that! Normally, that wouldn't be my favorite style, but your talent for choosing unusual color combos makes me see things differently. ❤😊 Thank you for making such a great video and sharing your creativity with us!

      When I want to "bolster" my washi tape, I put a thin layer of Modge Podge or clear-drying glue underneath it. It works great! I even used it on a notebook cover once and it held up really well. 😊

But I'm really excited because I think I have these watercolor brush pens at home, and you've just shown me a great way to use them! I love your videos, but I must admit I miss it when you stop talking, lol. I find your voice soothing and I enjoy listening to you. Glad you're feeling better and back to making videos.

    I wish someone would have warned me about the 'ugly stage' when I first started painting. I threw away so many because I thought they were terrible, when in fact, they just weren't done. Now I remind myself to keep going, and if it still turns out terrible, at least I've learned some things. I love how your mini canvases turned out, but especially like the second one. (I'm a sucker for landscapes) I'm glad you didn't give up on it. I'm really enjoying your channel and should be getting stuff done around the house, but I can't stop binge watching you!
