Such a beautiful combination of pinks and purples in your backgrounds that made a lovely card when you carefully cut them apart and lined them up diagonally across the card front panel! Pretty card!
Paying attention to your child’s mood and then finding out what’s going on is the mark of a good parent - and looking in their phone is usually the fastest way to find out! My daughter’s phone was always put on charger in family room at night and I checked it periodically. She graduated high school in 2014, so there was not nearly the social media that there is now. There’s a song, Suds in the Bucket, with lyrics about your child leaving home, to the effect of, how can 18 years just get up and walk away. Great song. I had only the one, and it certainly was a huge adjustment but it’s exciting too for both parents and children. I agree with you that it’s better to let them experience and explore “grown up” activities/responsibilities while they are still at home rather than restricting everything so they go hog wild as soon as they are out of the house. That’s dangerous, in my opinion. So many of the mistakes they make at this age have lifelong consequences - drugs, alcohol, babies. (Please be sure to tell/remind him, if she says she’s on birth control, she’s lying … !) On a different note, I’m getting the most consistent results from the COPIC opaque white ink for splatter, using as little water as possible. I had good results with the spellbinder’s new white one, too. The Dr. PH Martin bleed proof didn’t work for me, nor did the Hero Arts new one. I have tried so MANY trying to find one that stays white! Acrylic, gouache, sprays, tubes, inks, anything I could find, and that COPIC works most consistently for me. I’m planning on attending your class today, so I hope to see u then! Edited to add: and am still trying to find a white ink pad that actually retains its whiteness after drying, too, with no luck on that front either!
Really love this card. The colors work so well together. I really need to just spend some time in my craft room and make some fun backgrounds to be able to use for future cards.
Tiffany I have a Sizzix big shot and a switch. I waited to have a 40% off Michaels and bought via their online store, they magnetic base for/by sizzix. I don't ever use the regular base for anything now. I do embossing folders, dies, etc on the magnetic mat. EDITED TO ADD: the magnetic base looks just like the regular base except it is strong magnetics. I have been using it for 2 years now and still going strong.
This card is so pretty. I've watched your videos on Yupo paper and Craft Plastic paper. I've used Yupo in the past but didn't love the shiny finish. Does either of these papers come in matte finish?
Tiffany, did I sign up for this class? When I paid for the last class, there popped up a special price for a class and I paid but can't find it. Is it this one?

Watched the replay, thanks Tiffany! The card is stunning! I can't wait to do this myself.
I *think* my first concert was Petra, lol!
Love the card! I've got a few backgrounds sitting around and this will be perfect for them!
Hello from South Africa
Beautiful cards! Thankful for replays because I couldn't get free for the live stream.
Love a bit of tech that makes life easier! Looking forward to Saturday, I'll join once I'm awake, it's early here in NZ. But I'll catch up xoxo
Thanks Tiffany, I have so many backgrounds and don't know what to do with them. This is such a great idea.
My magnetic mat warped too

I really enjoyed creating with you today, looking forward to Saturday as well. Tomorrow would be fun too!

If you send me an email with your email I can check for you. 😊
You sound like me with designs. I way overthink things.
