- I love using vellum, and I'm always looking for different ways to us it. I'm loving these specimen writing spots. If you don't like bugs in your journal, modify to your liking! So many different things you can do 😊

Aww you're so kind! I try to be real and show you how I mess up too!😊💖💕
Love paper bugs!
Same! 😊💖💕
Love these, love using bugs in Halloween journals especially 🪳🕷🦗🪲🐜 Great idea 💜💜💜
@carolm9451 ohhhhhh yes!! That's a great idea! As slow as I am, I should start mine now!
No end of the world allowed at Christy's house. Love your bugs. Your making me giggle a lot, thanks Kiddo!!
@@susanviney3297 your so sweet! Thank you😊💖💕
love it. tfs. bugs are important
Agreed! Thank you😊💕💖
Great make ~ love it 👌💕 Really appreciate that you did the different ink testing 👍 You've inspired me to dig out my two really nice sets of watercolor pencils.... hmmmm... the hunt is on 😅 Blessings~~~
@@DebsDitties 😆 good luck, my friend 🧡 if it's anything like my craft room, it's anybodies guess 😊💖💕
You are so creative, love this. In summertime I run around my garden with my camera and take pictures of bugs and all kinds of insects, dragonflies, honeybees and butterflies. I love it😀
Love that! Oh my gosh, that's so cool. I bet you have beautiful pictures that would make great specimen cards! Thank you😊💖🧡💕
So awesome of you to test all these inks and products for us so we don’t have to. Thx!❤
I love the bug card. I think I’ll try this for my sons birthday card😊
lol I just love your videos. You remind me of myself so much and I just get the biggest kick out of it. I guess I think we’re funny.
Oh,, thank you! That would make a great card! I like that idea😊💖💕
Oh great, now we don't just need to make writing spots, Now we have to make "pretty spots" too! Geeeeeez!
😅😅😅😅❤
These are really pretty and i love the packing paper inside the one that decided not to cooperate! ❤
You're always making stuff with no purpose, so stawwwwwp. 😁😆
@CraftedByChristyShop 😂😂😂
Good morning Christy, as long as they aren't real I love bugs. They are so beautiful the way you colored them. Yes fairies and mushrooms sounds like another great idea for stamping. I happen to Love fairies and have many stamps. This was a fun video. Talk about patience the older I get the less I have. Fight with my sewing machine trying to thread the needle. Anyway thank you for sharing these creepy but beautiful bugs. ❤❤❤
I hear ya about the patience thing! I find myself constantly putting things down to go do something else. Thank you so much😊💖💕I hear ya on the sewing machine!! No matter how high I raise my eyebrows, still can't see it!
In Australia we call those metallic bugs Christmas Beatles, as our Christmas is in Summer.
I so love hearing Navy playing in the back ground.......
❤Wendy
Thank you Wendy! He's my buddy. Christmas beetles, I like that😊💖💕
Yep, it’s so interesting the difference between the inks. It’s a trial and error trying to figure out what works best for what. You did a great job of showing what ink to use for certain applications. Love the bug journal card! I’m a converted bug lover! 😂. Great video as always, my friend! ❤
Thank you so much my friend! I've yet to figure out what to do with the tea dyed! 😆 maybe I'm just spoiled to real tea dyed papers. You inspired me with the bugs 🐛 big hugs, and thank you so much😊🤗💖💕
Beautiful. Love bugs ♥
Thank you!😊💖💕is that what they're called??
I love all your stunts Christy!
❤Wendy
Lol 😆 thank you, but they're usually accidents! 😊💖💕
GM ❤ This was wonderful! Thank you so much! Enjoy your weekend! Xx
You're so sweet, thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful weekend too 💖
What a great idea to use cake collar for your acetate!😀
I'm so glad it gave you an idea! 😊💖💕 and, if I remember right, it was cheap. Thank you!
I'm not a bug lover, but your bug sure was pretty. I really like your specimen card with the vellum and the window. Beautiful! The addition of the packing paper is awesome as well. Great project! I make mistakes in every thing I do. Its apt to happen because no one is perfect. One can try to be, but impossible! I love how you roll with your mistakes and make the project even better. Thanks for sharing.
I'm so glad you liked it! 😊💖💕thank you so much!
These are so cute. TFS. ❤
Glad you like them! Thank you😊💖💕
Love all you techniques! You are so creative!❤❤❤
Thank you so much!😊💖💕you're so sweet
VERY pretty! 💖
@kellyhards8828 thank you so much😊💖💕
So beautiful. Thanks for sharing
I’m so glad you like them! 😊💖💕
Morning Christy! 🤎🖤🤎 I LOVE the BUGS!🪲 I use my bug stamps a lot. I think they add color to the grunge but not too much, Love the grunge! I just Love making the specimen slides too! Thanks Christy your videos are always Inspiring! Love hearing Navy in the background, it just makes you smile when you hear children laugh, it’s contagious!😂 I did some shopping last night in your Etsy and found all kinds of goodies, Thank You Christy! Have a Wonderful Weekend Christy!🤎🖤🪲🤎🖤🪲
I know you did! I had fun packaging it up, and deciding what kind of extras to send you. We have a lot of the same tastes, so it was fun! I can't wait for you to receive. You'll have to let me know what you think. Thank you so much! Have a great day😊💖💕
I'm so excited to see what you do this video
❤Wendy
🤗🤗
Ha ha ha.😂😂. . Touch and go with the glue inside your writing space
❤Wendy
😁😄
Lol, yep not a fan of bugs but I love the definition you got out of the stamping on the vellum and wow, what amazing colors!
I love the color too! I think I love grungy with pop of color. Is that a thing?? 😆 thank you😊💖💕
Ok, so I don’t have vellum; but I am thinking the matte sleeves I have for laminating might work. Gonna try it with something. Thanks, Christy. Navy has an adorable laugh; so nice to hear him having fun. My son used to entertain himself with cardboard boxes. I kind of miss those early years. Blessings!💕
Thank you! I love to hear him laugh. He loves anything that will roll, my glue sticks, ribbon, washi tape 😆 I think you will work great. Let me know!💖💕
great tutorial and information Christy! TYFS❤
You're welcome! Thank you😊💖💕
Morning Christy another great project. I use bug stamps all the time and I enjoy colouring them in. Not so keen on them in real life! Lol
Agree! They don't bother me much though. I think I just don't pay much mind to them. Thank you so much😊💖💕
Alcohol ink markers work great on vellum and acetate. I love doing the different bugs too. Don't have many but I do use them .😊❤
Love thar deckle edge cut out.
I been wanting to get some of those. I thought, but what would I use them for,, you're right this would be perfect! Now, I must find some! Thank you😊💖💕
@@CraftedByChristyShop you'll fall in love with them.
@bette-annflood835 any recommendations on kind??
@CraftedByChristyShop I have the ohuhu and arteza. But the ohuhu is the best on the market they say. I got mine when they first came out. They are some really nice ones. I don't like Copic. To expensive and I guess they dry out due to cracked sides on tip of plastic. Weird but true. But probably any brand works well. But if you can afford I recommend ohuhu.
wonderful video!
@@CRAFTICORI thank you so much! 😊💖💕
I took entomology in college. We had to collect and pin so many insects! It was really interesting 😊
@roxannerickey9132 we had to in 8th grade. I remember one girl was very creative, and it sounds morbid, but she made the coolest like graveyard. Each headstone was the name of the bug and all the information. Each one was on like a little pillow of cotton. It was actually pretty cool..
@ wow! That is cool!! Ours, unfortunately, was a pretty serious class…. lol We actually took a big trip to collect insects from a different location. I was in college in Oklahoma and we went to New Orleans for the weekend to ‘collect insects’. College! What a great time!! Our instructor was pretty cool 😎
That would have been so interesting.
❤Wendy
we never got to do entomology in Victoria, Australia.
❤Wendy
I don't care what anyone says, I don't like bugs. I might even say "ewwww". 😂 But enjoyed the video...never thought about coloring them. Love the butterfly idea. TFS Hope you have a great day. 🌞
I understand, not everyone is a bug person, but it does make me laugh that you used that word! 😂 Thanks for watching! 🌞 I only like the paper ones! Although, I'm not bothered by them too much💖💕
These are great! I gotta try this. Thank you ❤
You're so welcome!😊💖💕thank you!
So cute!! Great job! And thanks for sharing I’m going to be making something similar later today!
Yay, I'm so glad you liked it! 💖thank you😊💕
Wow, I love how you use the vellum and use the bug stamps...your creativity is so amazing. Thank you for sharing. I received a couple packets of vellum for Xmas.. i like the paper that you used ..maybe from Temu? I am doing this!🎉
I'm so glad you liked it! I love to create with vellum! Yes, I'm pretty sure it was temu. Thank you!😊💖💕
Fun idea! What papers are you using? Also where is the torn look die from?
I'm pretty sure they came from temu. Thank you so much!😊💖💕
Cute card for boys & girls. Where May I ask did you the tear ruler? Mine has bug chunky tear edges. Also the torn look die cut?
@erikahatcher5492 I had to look to make sure. The ruler I got from Amazon in a set of 3 error different tears. I linked it in my storefront. Pretty sure the door came from temu. I hope this helps! Thank you😊💖💕
@ thank you so much!
Them iridescent bugs kill my garden, along with those other ones that look like they're in armour.
You have a garden! I'm jealous. I cannot grow things. About the only thing I'm good at, is pulling weeds! Although, I do find that relaxing 😌 I'm sorry about the bugs. I do love sweet corn 🌽 man, my dad used to have the best garden,, yummmm
@@CraftedByChristyShop I try. I have a lot of help too. My love, he helps me. He really does it all and I keep up with it lol.
@stellabiteme do you grow corn?? If so, eat some for me this summer!! 😋
@CraftedByChristyShop yes I will do that. This last summer wasn't good for anything.
What is the background paper that was used?
I'm pretty sure I got it from temu. I don't know the name of it. I'm sorry💖
