      I prefer to use cornflour baby powder, it's not as cloudy as baby powder with talc.
      Matt medium is the most simple. I never use Modpodge as it's not as good as professional mediums and you can get it in 2, 4 and 5 litre tubs which I decant from

    Hi Tammy.... I found this recipe on another channel for clear gesso where I use cornstarch instead of the baby powder (probably the same results). I use it on older thin book pages, both sides, to help keep them from tearing apart. I can then paint, ink, etc and the pages still stay intact. I also use this for decoupaging on my masterboards, including sticking stamped tissue papers and it comes out really nice with no shine. I keep my mixture in a bowl like you have and it has kept for months. Thanks again!

      @@jenx4433 I use 1 cup PVA glue, 1/3 cup water and 3 tablespoons of cornstarch. I add more water if needed. I have had this mixture now for about 2 months and just add more water and stir good. It does leave a texture and some wrinkles just like Tammy's so test first. I haven't tried this on shiny pages though....let us know if you do this, I would be interested. Tammy started an interesting thread here!

I used magazine pages and really didn't like the shine, so I covered it with paper and collaged over it. The magazine is not visible anymore. I'll try both of these. Thanks for sharing.

    The reason you’re seeing spots of shine on the book pages is because of the ink used on the dark areas. If you do any kind of Gelli print with magazine transfer you know that the dark ink acts as a mask. So dark images will repel the solution applied on top. I do a lot of collage art and I’m curious how the napkin idea will work on top of the finished collages. Will have to try on something I don’t care for since you never know what will happen. Thank you for this. Will be following you.

    I think I like the napkin technique for the simplicity, But I can see where the powder would work well too.
    So would you say last method was like ''cream/ wall paint ... looks like beaten egg consistency? lol, An easy way to measure stuff like this is to use a digital kitchen scale. You pour in the products as you stir and just note the weight change. like glue 4 oz., water 2 more, and powder 1/3 oz stir then add in a touch more water, .2, .4 , then you know exactly 2.4

    Best way to get rid of it is rehydrate your throat
    Causes from maybe infection, sinus, irritation, eating to fast, swelling in your bronchial

    I wonder if perhaps the reason you are getting the "watermark" look, as you refer to it, is from the paint brush grabbing the granules of cornstarch and pulling them off the page. I haven't tried it, but I bet that if you were to mix a small amount of corn starch into some cold water, and then cook it (not enough cornstarch to make gravy, but a thin mixture), then let it cool. Try that with or without the glue mixed in after the cornstarch and water mixture are cool. It will help dissolve the cornstarch and then it should glide over all portions of your paper evenly. You could try making some somewhat thick, and gradually thin down samples until you get the right ratio of water and cornstarch. Too thick and it will flake off. Just a thought.
    On a completely unrelated note, you said you had a frog in your throat. That reminds me of when my kids were little. I would say that, and they would excitedly want to see it. :) So I tried saying I'm hoarse. The excitement level skyrocketed. :)
    Anyway, I like where you are going with your ideas.

    There is a product of Modge Podge that is called matte finish and it would be less likely to leave a shine my experience with Modge Podge is that it is usually much shinier than PVA glue water down. I have not tried it West glue and baby powder but I will give that a try

    New subscriber! I love experimenting as I delve into journal and art making. Well, more like mess making for me lol! I use matte gel medium to knock back gloss, but don’t always have it. Will give these a try! 🦋🦋🦋

    Use the “Matte” Mod Podge😊

    • @snowstormcrafts8558
      @snowstormcrafts8558  Год назад

      Yes, I agree. Gloss luster Mod Podge is what I had on hand at the time.

    • @snowstormcrafts8558
      @snowstormcrafts8558  Год назад +1

      I haven’t tried that, I bet markers or felt tipped pens would work great. I would love to hear the results if you try it. 😀

    Are you purchasing matte mod podge? The satin or gloss mod podge will leave it shiny like your examples seem to be.

    • @snowstormcrafts8558
      @snowstormcrafts8558  Год назад

      Yes, I think that is a good idea to try matte Mod Podge. For a less shiny effect. Thanks for watching. 😉

    Just found your channel. I would love to see how you use the book page and magazine images. I love to see the recycle of books and magazines. Do Not substitute after shower powder with baking soda for baby powder! You will end up with a white volcano mess. Spoken from experience. I look forward to back tracking your videos. 💜🐞

  • @gladysward6969
    @gladysward6969 Год назад +2

    Would like to try the cornstarch one as well as the modpodge with the white napkin. I would urge folks to avoid baby powder as it is a carcinogen, especially if breathed in. Just a suggestion.😊

      cornstarch is just fine....in the "old days" baby powder was talc based (as were a ton of scented body powder options for women)....talcum was the base in question...but J&J switched to cornstarch as their base in 2020...and I believe there is a ban set for this year in fact....so be sure to check your powder - esp if it's an off brand...if it has cornstarch as the base, you are good to go..........if it's talc, you might want to consider purchasing a new cornstarch-based bottle......

    • @bconsilio3764

      The new baby is talc free. Johnson’s and Johnson’s took all baby power off the market and replaced it with the kind she has. BTW I’m over 60 years old and have used baby power almost every day of my life (several times a day) and do not have cancer.
      (IMO) So I believe it was unsubstantiated with pressure from the public. Baby power has been used for more than 60 years on probably 90% of babies in the USA alone and the percentage of women with cancer supposedly attributed to baby power is infinitesimally small comparatively! Don’t scare people; the media is very good at that. They don’t need help on YT commenter’s making their own art supplies! And Absolutely everything causes cancer if you listen to so called ‘experts’. Don’t breath, drink water or anything else, don’t eat veggies, fruits, processed foods, meat, dairy, grains-everything has been contaminated by the air, soil, water.
      If you are so worried about it wear a respirator. We all have been schooled in that! Have a safe day!

      Old school baby powder was as it was talc but for years now though it's just been cornstarch.

    Isn't ModPodge sticky when dry? It would seem matte medium might be a better option.

    Sooo, could you not add powder or cornstarch to the actual modpodge to cut the shine?

    • @snowstormcrafts8558
      @snowstormcrafts8558  7 месяцев назад +1

      Great question, yes for sure you can. You can also get the matte modpodge that will help take the shine away. I like to use school glue & powder because it is way cheaper alternative. Hope this helps.

    • @snowstormcrafts8558

    There is also spray fixative that is matte which should work.

    Just wondering … What happens if you go both ways? It would help assure you cover it but you said (several times) to go in the same direction.

    • @snowstormcrafts8558
      @snowstormcrafts8558  Год назад

      If you decided to go both ways should be fine as long as you end up going one directional way before you let it dry. You will see the stroke marks when it dries.hope this helps.

  • @luannfischer747
    @luannfischer747 Год назад +1

    Maybe using glue/water mixture with NO powder or talc added, then put the napkin over it? The ratio of water to glue I’ve used for other applications was a 1/1 , I will try this and see where it takes me,,,,

    • @snowstormcrafts8558
