    I love the way you teach so inclusively. Use what you have. Everyone makes things they aren’t happy with sometimes. Mistakes are ok. I don’t come here for fancy, I come here for something I might be able to actually have the confidence to try, even though I won’t downplay the fact that you do still wow me with your skill and talent!

Thank you for not doing another voiceover! Love the cards you made as always! Any plans for art journals or scrapbook layouts soon?

    I’ve been doing a lot more writing in my videos lately, and am sort of horrified at my lack of variety/beauty in my handwriting, so this is super well-timed advice! Even just adding that second layer of ink, the black, made it so much more interesting. I really appreciate that most of your advice is framed in a way that’s approachable and possible from our end! Thank you. =^.^=

    Hey Lindsay...you always pick out the most beautiful colors to use on your projects! This is most challenging for me. I think I get confused about tones (adding grays), tints (adding whites) & shades (blacks). When you create a project, is it better to pick colors that are the same tones (I don't know if I'm explaining myself properly)? Example, would you do a complete card in pastel shades? Thanks for sharing Lindsay!

    • @thefrugalcrafter
      @thefrugalcrafter  6 лет назад +1

      go for balance for the most part and color the foal pint to contrast a bit.

    @beckyb4074 6 лет назад

    Hello Lindsay, I have couple of questions, 1. Have you used up all the foam squares from that 3D puzzle? The last video I saw you use them on was January or February 23rd of this year. Just curious how long they lasted. I wish I could find one of those puzzles, I can't seem to find any descent, inexpensive foam squares anywhere. 2. How best to store single ended markers and brush pens? Thanks so much. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas

    • @jaspermartin7444
      @jaspermartin7444 6 лет назад +1

      Supposedly the best way to store markers is on their side, that way the liquid has a chance to keep the tip moist. Someone gave me a set of 36 Marvy markers 20 or 30 years ago, which came in a fancy tin. Never opened it until yesterday and they all worked perfectly.
      Anyway, as long as the marker is refillable then it's not as important how they are stored, they do look pretty sitting on a desk in a coffee cup!
      As for the foam... I guess you don't mean those foam craft sheets (originally marketed for kids) at Walmart? You can buy single sheets, or packs of various sizes. Or do you mean make-up sponges? Those would either be Walmart or better yet the dollar store if you're lucky (I'm never lucky).

      I meant adhesive foam squares like Lindsay uses to raise up her embellishments. I have both the other foam things you mentioned and yes just last week I got makeup wedges at Dollar tree. Most (but not all) of my markers are Crayola or generic ones from some type of dollar store and single ended brush tip ones are by the Paper Studio (a Hobby lobby brand). I only own 2 small sets on prismacolor alcohol markers that I got years ago after watching Chip Foose drawing on the show Overhaulin', actually my son was watching the show. Anyway, thanks for answering anyhow.

    • @thefrugalcrafter
      @thefrugalcrafter  6 лет назад

      Becky, I think I have a lifetime supply of foam squares, I swear them breed LOL! as for single ended markers if they are the water brush type with liquid ink (like JD mermail markers) I store them tip up so they don't leak. All others I store on their side.

    • @jaspermartin7444
      @jaspermartin7444 6 лет назад

      ohmy, I didn't even know there was such a thing as embellishment foam! But now that you mention it, does sound like a good idea for making embellishments look even nicer, so thank you for that!

    • @beckyb4074
      @beckyb4074 6 лет назад

      Hey Lindsay, wow - I wish I had foam squares that multiplied like rabbits, LOL. I'll find some someday. I told Jasper Martin (above comment) what kind of markers I have most of. And the majority are off brands, I have to generally shop at Dollar stores or wherever I can find the best deal for what amount of money I have to work with. I have alot of The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby brand) stuff, most of with 40% off coupon or 50% off sales. Anyway, I know you are super busy, but enjoy (kind of) chatting with you. I'd love to have a neighbor like you, I'd be inspired and happy all the time. Thanks for being real and honest. God bless.

    @theresa_lili 6 лет назад

    Oh my!!! Succulents!! I just recently found you(didnt know you were lost did you?). I had no idea that you did design work. So..2 questions. As a long time stamper/altered artist where do I get that set? Would you consider designing a Maine Coon set? Ha ha. I know there are 100's of cat stamps out there. Cute. Short haired. Long haired balls of mess. I have long awaited an artist to put my Maine Coons on rubber. The stamps that I have found saying they are Coons dont look anything like a Maine Coon. Love the wreath!! Can't wait to get the stamps!!
