I love your cards! Thank you for teaching us how to "art!" I am thankful for you, Lindsay, and appreciate that you give us "permission" to change things up to suit us. AND that you encourage us to use what we have rather than buying the exact products you are using. You are a true embodiment of your brand, The Frugal Crafter.
aww, thank you:) It is so easy to be tempted by all the new stuff, get it home and then be like "what was I thinking!" Many of the stuff we have is the same as new things coming out or will substitute beautifully:)
Lindsey.....you rock! I am 59 years young and have taken up "art" and love your energy and ALL of your videos. My favorite is all your water color tutorials. You inspire me! Can I adopt you? 😄
Quit putting yourself down. You are a very creative artist. When people critique your artwork negatively, tell them to put up or shut up. Especially in the time frame you have to create your video. Love you and your work, I have learned so much watching your videos. 😊
I heard no snark whatsoever; just wisdom and humor and joy. You seem to have such a good time and that's contagious. Great cards and great as inspiration for me as I continue on my creative journey. Thanks!
I have been watching you forever and I love your attitude especially when you said if you dont like it throw it away its only paper, and your so right. Sometimes we get hung up on being perfect and not wanting to mess around with different techniques or use new products because we are afraid of ruining our projects but then we are missing out on all the fun and not being creative by doing that. It is only paper if you dont like it toss I love how free you are creatively. Im not as free as you are but Im getting there.Thank you so much for your tutorials, product shares and just having fun with us. You are greatly appreciated. God Bless.
I love the I'll do me and u do you line!! So true and well said! I never understand the people who thumbs down either?! This is for our benefit not so u can judge people and I appreciate all videos!! So thank u!!
Lindsay, I should have written months ago. You are the greatest, like another comment I am in my late 50's and have decided to take up watercolor painting. I watch your videos so often that I am lucky there is not a fee. Please keep being you, so positive, so happy, so encouraging and just so nice.
I really enjoyed this video. I love what you created, the inclusion of the thread. I love the blues and green with the orange and red; great color combo. I don't have the oxide ( still on the fence about them), but I'll use the regular distress inks and try different colors. This has given me the incentive to play around and try to think of more ideas. I need to do a small stash of cards for thank yous and general greeting. Thanks for the tutorial. I really appreciate your time and creativity.
Thank You Lindsey. I am a new subscriber, and love your channel. Beautiful cards! Space, money and time are key. I thank you for always paying attention to this.
Thanks so much for this very interesting video! You are blessed with a very happy, positive outlook! I am glad you don't let a few negative remarks get you down. It's a joy to watch your videos, and listen to your explanations of how and why you do the steps you do in a project. Thanks again😊
I'm 35 and am disabled at home I've always loved art but am new to crafting and I want to thank you for the great videos you make I get such good inspiration and can watch you for 💓 ages_' love from Ireland
Love your videos. Love that you make mistakes and can go on or fix. I too like to buy every color of something before I use it. After cleaning up my craft room I am doing much better. Glad I'm not the only one. Thanks
amazing...thought you had lost the green color burst card but... you brought it back and now it's my fav. think you told us before "don't give up". Good advise. you always have good advise???? yeh! Thanks again for teaching and sharing.
i think trying out dif backgrounds can be fun. once i was stamping several cards and using many dif colors. happened to have a pc of card stock under my what i was working on and when i was done, looked at that 'scrap' and decided it would make a fun background for a card. plunked some more on it and it turned out to be a really fun card!
Love these! I especially like the underwater card. The gear actually looks like a ship's wheel. Thanks for your energy and encouragement. Love the Lindsay pep talks!
I think if you have 516 thumbs up and only 4 thumbs down you can pat yourself on the back! I love your videos and I hope negative comments never sway you from making more videos. Or detract from your happy, peppy, style. Your video are a bright, cheery, pick-me-up every time I watch one. Thank you for sharing your art and yourself with all of us.
Interesting backgrounds....I love making backgrounds and always manage to pick up a tip or two from you for which I am grateful. Huge fan of your channel and talent and seriously, ignore ignorant people. The cards turned out beautifully! TFS
It is fun to watch you work with products. Thanks for the tips on Distress inks. I'm still thinking that I can do a lot of these techniques with the inks I have, but I may pick up one or two just to see if they create an effect that I can't already achieve with my supplies on hand =) Thank you so much for sharing and teaching.
Beautiful art cards! i love using many of your techniques to create political mixed media pieces. Thanks for explaining your composition/color choices. Love the soft/hard look of your cards. Your colors are divine! Just amazing!
Nice ideas! I've learned not to throw even the ugliest backround out! I use them for die cutting. It's amazing how pretty they can become once cut into some shape! They are especially nice for word dies.
Beverly Bryce definitely not snarky with the types of comments left for her, right?! People are just so one-mined these days... definitely not the attitude to have as a crafter/artist.
Love your video's Lindsay, you make art fun, you are fun to listen to and a great teacher. You mentioned Carolyn Dube, she is tons of fun too, her Permission to Play series really helped me to get started. I have been following you for awhile now and you keep things so light :) I do like that you remind people to not go out and buy the store as you may not like the things you have just bought. I am addicted to these Oxide Inks and a sweet friend has given me her colour burst powders. So yippee for me. This video is great! Thanks again for sharing.
Love,love, love, them all. I too think the one with the dragonflies is my fav! You're always so happy and inspirational. Love watching your channel. TFS ~ L
What a hoot, love your work. On the lighter side - and NO WAY is this a criticism, I feel all puffed out now, your energy is just wonderful, cheers me up at the same time wearing me out. Thank you my lovely. I have learnt a new mantra along with art..... I’ll do me and you do you. LOVE THAT
I have become addicted to using stencils BUT I really like the mini gelli plates. Those r now on my want list. The two cards using them r my fav. I'd either put another small gear or sentiment to cover the oops area and add another dandelion seed to even it out. Great job with this video. We all will do what we like but in the end, we will all be doing great art and enjoy therapy at the same time!! LOL. 😘
I was just wanting to make some cards and saw this! You are so talented and prolific - amazing. I do a lot of acrylic painting but you have also inspired me to take up crafty stuff and water color again.
I absolutely love watching you get inky and have fun! My favorite is your favorite. Before you added the stamps and gears....it really reminded me of what "earth" would look like from space. (Just my mind drifting off...)
Found my clear chess set yesterday and can't wait to make your cute daubers. I already put one on a small acrilic block. Makes a cute handle and I can now find it so easy. No hunting for it in all the paper mess. I use it to help tear my score tape in a perfect line instead of just tearing it off. Makes is real nice for your next application of the score tape 😍🤗
This is the first time I've seen this video...thanks for some inspiration that I needed to make for my father's day card and my spouse's b'day card. I have a lot of oxide inks that haven't been used in quite some time. I love the gear embellishment/die that you used!
Hahaha best advice ever you do u and I do me. It's SO true though. I've watched so many videos where I've taken their technique but I've changed it so it's more me. That's the joy of crafting though. You can get 10 people using the same technique but each one will be different.
Glad I watched the whole video, I wasn't digging your color choices either, but once you added all the different stamps in the border those colors faded more into the background and looked Great!. Love that you are so free and easy in your projects; I'm still working toward that goal. Thanks for all your encouragement.
I love how you share money saving tips - I definitely have that same problem of wanting an entire collection of something, but when I recently bought the oxide inks, I just bought maybe six in a rainbow of colors and really that's all I think I need :) could have even just did red, cyan, and yellow to make the other colors too! I recently took a mixed media card class and didn't feel like I got much out of this but your video helped to add onto what I already learned! TFS :)
Haha calling out the couch critics. I love it. Sometimes people don't appreciate what it takes to put yourself, your ideas and your art out there. But I'm living the layered backgrounds. These turned out so neat. I recently bought some cheap craft gesso. I'm gonna have to play with that.
Loved this video. Your suggestion about buying one or two to try makes a lot of sense(I'm one of those have to get all kind of people). Also enjoyed your minimalist videos about storing at the store but it's a hard habit to break. Keep up the good work.
You absolutely blow me away with your creativity! Your designs are fantastic and I get so much inspiration from you but with all the techniques you are so accomplished at, when I sit down to do something I'm overwhelmed with choices to dabble with. I just bought some Distress Oxide inks and am itching to play. You give me courage to experiment! I'm just starting to try water coloring also and I hope someday to get the gorgeous results like your creations! I noticed in this video you use you own homemade dabbers. Awhile ago, I saw a video where you talked about chess pieces and makeup pads. Can you share where that video is so I can go back and watch? I would like to make some for myself. Thanks for all you do for us! You are simply amazing, Lindsay!
I really liked this video. I don't have oxides but I use a baby wipe and regular inks and I'm going to give this a try with them. Thx for the inspiration.
I LOVE these background techniques! I don't have any Distress Oxides but I think I could use my other stuff. I'll try anyway. You seemed a little defensive today. People can be very rude, and many people find fault if it isn't something they totally agree with. It as if they think they are wrong if they don't like a detail or are somehow inferior. Hey people, it's called individuality, or personal taste, or being yourself. It's a fundamental aspect of being an artist. I always adapt your techniques to what I have, and limited, my recent purchase from Rubber Stamp Tapestry notwithstanding. I Do blame you for that little addiction. But after I checked out their catalog, I think I only got 2 or 3 of the sets you have and lots of others you've don't have or haven't used on vid. FYI - RST now has "blender brushes" So please continue to be your very talented and individual self. And continue to share your techniques and your art.
Oh girl, you and I have the exact same tastes in colors so I love to watch what colors you match with each other because I am a horrible judge at that. You'res look amazing. I love the look of using gesso in the stencil because I do that same look a lot also, over top of brusho'ed backgrounds, etc., and I've always used my embossing paste which as you know is a lot more expensive for the very similar look. ALmost even better with the gesso as it's a little less opaque which I like. Wanted to ask you also, I can't remember if I've seen you do it before or not but do you ever use aluminum can cuts on some of your bolder dies? Then alcohol ink them. Some amazing looks from that. That is like one of my favorite things to do. I love alcohol inks and will use them however I can but on aluminum is awesome. Couldn't remember if I'd seen you do it so just wanted to share. As always, love your videos.
Hi Lindsay ~ You didn't come across as snarky at all and it was very well said. Everyone's tastes are different and experimenting is part of the fun! Thanks for such an awesome video and for those who feel the need to leave not-so-nice comments or thumbs down....if you don't like it simply move on. Love that you've explained so well as you went along. I'm definitely not new to cardmaking but I'm new to this particular technique and look forward to trying it out. Thanks so much for sharing. ~HUGS~ #kindnessmatters
Thanks for sharing so many great ideas! Have you tried Lindy's Magicals before? They are pigment powders too but have shimmer to them. I would love to see your take or review of those products! 😁Thanks Lindsay - this was great!
Lindsay. ...love your cards....in another video. ...and I know you do this alot...how about getting that background that you tossed to the side and doing a background stamp.....say...a busy background stamp....I bet you would incorporate it some way.. Saw you do one recently where I wasn't crazy about the beginning process...but when you added that text stamp to that background. ...it was BEAUTIFUL....I couldn't believe the transformation. ...love the metallic thread look....gotta think aboit one. ...very pretty😀
I LOVE watching your videos...and I ALWAYS learn from you. Thank you so much! I'd like to ask what you are using for the handles on your sponge dauber idea with the cosmetic sponge.
You didn't come off as snarky! I love making backgrounds. I find I don't use my crazier ones. I changed it up. I now do full sheets and die cut my crazy ones. A smaller piece works for me
Hi Lindsay! Loved this tutorial! And, as usual, you gave us more useful tips and advice! I see that The Spin Doctor asked what I was going to ask.. Please, please tell us how you get ink stains, etc off of your hands?
They are all so beautiful I really couldn't tell you which one I loved the most! They all remind me of a large certificate that my Father got from the Navy during World War II It was of Antarctica and all of the colors was of the Orange, Coral, Blue and Green and the gear reminded me of a ships uhh, I forgot (brain freeze) anyways he crossed that and also the Equator First ship to ever cross the Equator and that reminded me of the other certificate that he got from the navy, it was Green and Blue! So, that's why I'm having a hard time saying cuz all 4 of them is really exquisite! I must have your taste in Art 😉 I do kinda favor the one with the Orange and Coral in it more 🥰😉 I got on the website to order all those cute peg stamps and sad but true, they don't carry most of them any longer. Although they still had the Butterfiles and Ivy so I ordered me that! I am really happy that they still carried that 🥰❤❣ I do have to tell you I got laughing so hard when you said; I'll do me and you do you! I used that line all the time with my EX! I ended up doing what I do.... that's why I say he's my EX!!! LOL LOL 😂🤣😅😄😁 Love what you do for all of us Lindsay! Thank You So much for sharing! Sending Love ❤ and Blessing to you and your Family and Loved ones Lindsay 😊❤❣
Thanks for these great ideas. I didn't like the look when you started and almost turned it off. I'm soooo glad I didn't. These are awesome cards and would be great scrap book additions. You always astound me. Thank you.
When I go to a stamp book to buy new ones, or just looking at ones you have , look at them upside down. It will surprise you sometimes what you will find in the stamp other than intended use,
I love your cards! Thank you for teaching us how to "art!" I am thankful for you, Lindsay, and appreciate that you give us "permission" to change things up to suit us.

I just love you and your videos Lindsay w!! Ur soooooo cool and creative!!
I really love the one with the round jelly thing. It kind of like looking out a window at the moon. Very pretty.
Thank you! I made an inky panel and added a central image but had no idea what to do around the border... Now I do!
You're a wonderful artist and teacher. Really appreciate all of your tutorial tips and techniques. Thank you!

That first greenish circle looks like the earth!! So very pretty!! I just got the second set of oxide inks from RST-can't wait to play!! TFS!❤️
Not snarky at all. On point! Loved these ideas, thank you!

Beautiful art cards! i love using many of your techniques to create political mixed media pieces. Thanks for explaining your composition/color choices. Love the soft/hard look of your cards. Your colors are divine! Just amazing!
I LOVE the oxides and their creaminess... your backgrounds are very cool !
Awesome again Lindsay!! Fun fun fun!!! I'm so inspired!!!
Nice ideas! I've learned not to throw even the ugliest backround out! I use them for die cutting. It's amazing how pretty they can become once cut into some shape! They are especially nice for word dies.
Hi L.
What are the plastic holders you are using for the makeup sponges ?????? By the way your so inspiring !!!!!!!👍🏾
Love this idea! The dragonfly is my favorite too. ❤
I just love the idea with the twine - you are genius! thanks for sharing
No not snarky. You're awesome.
Beverly Bryce definitely not snarky with the types of comments left for her, right?! People are just so one-mined these days... definitely not the attitude to have as a crafter/artist.

Love,love, love, them all. I too think the one with the dragonflies is my fav! You're always so happy and inspirational. Love watching your channel. TFS ~ L
What a hoot, love your work. On the lighter side - and NO WAY is this a criticism, I feel all puffed out now, your energy is just wonderful, cheers me up at the same time wearing me out. Thank you my lovely. I have learnt a new mantra along with art..... I’ll do me and you do you. LOVE THAT
I love love love colour burst, my favourite is cerulean blue. Great video.
I love how these turned out!
YOU ROCK... You are just so inspiring and I love that you never stop talking.. just like me xx
love them Lindsey, i always put sentiments on my mistakes, punch out something and i often find that mistakes turn into great things.
Gorgeous colors and a great theme. 👍🏻
Love these cards and backgrounds, Lindsay! The nautical themed one might be my favorite. Love how the gear resembles a ships wheel. Great vid!!!
I have become addicted to using stencils BUT I really like the mini gelli plates. Those r now on my want list. The two cards using them r my fav. I'd either put another small gear or sentiment to cover the oops area and add another dandelion seed to even it out. Great job with this video. We all will do what we like but in the end, we will all be doing great art and enjoy therapy at the same time!! LOL. 😘
Loooove that blue and green one!
I was just wanting to make some cards and saw this! You are so talented and prolific - amazing. I do a lot of acrylic painting but you have also inspired me to take up crafty stuff and water color again.

Personally loving the oxides and how versatile they are!
Love your videos. You inspired me...I went right to my table and did everything you suggested. Now I go to bed with inky fingers!
Haha calling out the couch critics. I love it. Sometimes people don't appreciate what it takes to put yourself, your ideas and your art out there.
But I'm living the layered backgrounds. These turned out so neat. I recently bought some cheap craft gesso. I'm gonna have to play with that.
The Spin Dr reminds me: Thank you, Lindsay, for the LAVA tip! Works great.
Loved this video. Your suggestion about buying one or two to try makes a lot of sense(I'm one of those have to get all kind of people). Also enjoyed your minimalist videos about storing at the store but it's a hard habit to break. Keep up the good work.

You're making me wanna go make some stencils. Love the ideas.
That big ball with the distress water effects is a moon... do that and add some stars....
love love love these!!!! i esp. love the colors you chose!
fav. were the ones with the oxide inks. thx so much!
Great video Lindsay! 😁
Awesome càrds...love love love them all.
I love this idea...just add some dollar tree popped up stickers. Think they would turn out well.
Love the backgrounds, thanks!
I really liked this video. I don't have oxides but I use a baby wipe and regular inks and I'm going to give this a try with them. Thx for the inspiration.
Thank you for the video, loved it and the cards came out beautiful 😄💖
I like it so much, it's so beautiful!
Your backgrounds are beautiful!

Thank you so much for the inspiration, loved every card
You are so welcome!
Super cute Lindsay.
Hi Lindsay ~ You didn't come across as snarky at all and it was very well said. Everyone's tastes are different and experimenting is part of the fun! Thanks for such an awesome video and for those who feel the need to leave not-so-nice comments or thumbs down....if you don't like it simply move on. Love that you've explained so well as you went along. I'm definitely not new to cardmaking but I'm new to this particular technique and look forward to trying it out.

I LOVE watching your videos...and I ALWAYS learn from you. Thank you so much! I'd like to ask what you are using for the handles on your sponge dauber idea with the cosmetic sponge.
You didn't come off as snarky! I love making backgrounds. I find I don't use my crazier ones. I changed it up. I now do full sheets and die cut my crazy ones. A smaller piece works for me
Wow, cool Lindsey!
Thanks for sharing. Have an awesome weekend.
Love these! Thanks for al the tips, I always enjoy your videos! And I don’t understand how ppl can be so judgmental, to each its own, I say.
LOVE your inspiration!!
Great cards and thanks for sharing.

Hi Lindsay! Loved this tutorial! And, as usual, you gave us more useful tips and advice! I see that The Spin Doctor asked what I was going to ask.. Please, please tell us how you get ink stains, etc off of your hands?
Gail A Ciesielski. I use a Ranger, Ink scrubbie. Cost $4-5.00. Bought mine at JoAnns fabrics and crafts. LOVE it to remove all inks & paints.
Thanks Pat! That figures, I should have know that Ranger would come out with an item to clean our hands! LOL
Great tutorial thank you!

They are all so beautiful I really couldn't tell you which one I loved the most! They all remind me of a large certificate that my Father got from the Navy during World War II It was of Antarctica and all of the colors was of the Orange, Coral, Blue and Green and the gear reminded me of a ships uhh, I forgot (brain freeze) anyways he crossed that and also the Equator First ship to ever cross the Equator and that reminded me of the other certificate that he got from the navy, it was Green and Blue! So, that's why I'm having a hard time saying cuz all 4 of them is really exquisite! I must have your taste in Art 😉 I do kinda favor the one with the Orange and Coral in it more 🥰😉 I got on the website to order all those cute peg stamps and sad but true, they don't carry most of them any longer. Although they still had the Butterfiles and Ivy so I ordered me that! I am really happy that they still carried that 🥰❤❣ I do have to tell you I got laughing so hard when you said; I'll do me and you do you! I used that line all the time with my EX! I ended up doing what I do.... that's why I say he's my EX!!! LOL LOL 😂🤣😅😄😁 Love what you do for all of us Lindsay! Thank You So much for sharing! Sending Love ❤ and Blessing to you and your Family and Loved ones Lindsay 😊❤❣
Thanks for these great ideas. I didn't like the look when you started and almost turned it off. I'm soooo glad I didn't. These are awesome cards and would be great scrap book additions. You always astound me. Thank you.
thanks for sticking around:) We always have the hot mess stage, gotta push through!
Very nice and whimsy!
Beautiful cards
I loved this video
When I go to a stamp book to buy new ones, or just looking at ones you have , look at them upside down. It will surprise you sometimes what you will find in the stamp other than intended use,
You could never come off snarky!
