    Great techniques. Of all the “expert” stamper I watch on You Tube, I think you win the top award for ink blending. I usually recite your blending instructions in my head as I try to get the same results. Now, for the times I actually listen to my Laura Mantra I can do a pretty good job. Thank you for that. Your cards are beautiful and so are you!

  • @Via_Von
    @Via_Von 2 года назад

    Laura these are such amazing cards! 💝 I'm still working my way through the embossing folder processing but finding that, for me, lighter pigment schemes work better with really detailed designs and then bolder colour schemes with simpler designs. I think it's a matter of bolder colours with highly detailed designs tend to conflict in visual power or something. 🤷🏼‍♀️
    You made me laugh so with the "flickin' door" and the "perform an hour and a half surgery on the thread mess"!! Thank you for those giggles! 🤗😂❤️
