Another great page. I am just happy to watch your videos when you have time to post. I find it so easy to just sit in my craft room , watch you Tube ,mess about with stuff and achieve absolutely nothing !!!! Thanks for sharing .
This turned out so cool. I was worried when you put on the black but it worked out great. Thanks for slowing down with the lettering so we can watch and learn.
Thank you! Yes I remembered people want to see it! lol Also, remember you can slow it down more if you need it! The little gear icon in the bottom right corner.
Enjoyed watching your video and listening to your voice over. I also like how you persevere in the process and end up making an enjoyable piece that you like and treasure. It must have been difficult to post for 61 days with the icad project but as a viewer, it was great to watch and learn. It's always a little extra treat to be able to watch one of your videos, thank you!
Thank you so much! Everything you said is so sweet. It was hard doing ICAD but no regrets. Will I do it next year? No. lol But I'm glad I did it at least once!
Lol you could always keep saying or it x amount of days til the next icad series 😉 love how you got that grungy background Fabulous page thanks for sharing Denise
Absolutely hear you on the mood thing! My crafty mojo is MIA, and has been for almost a year, I'm starting to get worried about it. Nothing unusual or overly stressful is going on in my life, I'm just in a creative slump. I loved your daily dose of ICAD, but I totally understand how draining that must have been. As for me, I enjoy everything you create, so I don't mind waiting for my next morsel of Denise art!
Oh no! Almost a year! Have you tried just simply doing something. anything? How about following a video exactly? Sometimes it helps! I hope it returns ASAP! Thanks so much for your sweet words.
I LOVE this!! Really enjoyed your process. I totally appreciated your frustration with the lovely Dylusions paints. I was gifted the cocktail set for my bday recently and I've used them in both the regular Dylusions journal and the black journal (my fave). I feel as though I have to use SO MUCH paint to get the look I want tho! Love your lettering! I'm a calligrapher and I love to play with weird letter formations 😊 That was great, my dear! Thank you so much! Blessings xo
I really like how you keep,going, rather than applying gesso over it and beginning again. The black was being a pill but you figured out what to do. Have a fun weekend, my dear.
I totally "get" what you were feeling about the paints. They are beautiful but on paper, by themselves, they are like 'that woman' at the party that is TOO TOO much. You took down the almost abrasive brightness of them all with the triangles and the areas of solid black and then took it down even further with the brayer making the grungy-dirty look. Then the focal point you picked out brought all that black together with the bold outlining and black tears. You did GREAT! I probably would have thrown my hands up and given up or at least closed it up to tackle another time...so well done YOU! :o))
Denise, I have five cats (was six but one passed) and every single one has a totally different personality. I have one cat that has ZERO interest in cuddles or kisses and I've never been able to pick her up or hold her. She just has a very strong personality and no need for all that cuddly stuff. I hug and kiss her on purpose just to piss her off. When I hug her against her will she kicks her hind leg out like a bicycle kickstand to push me away which just cracks me up and I start singing "Every kitty was kung-fu fighting! That cat was fast as lightening..." She likes me singing to her, just none of that lovey stuff ;o))
"Hi this is X days since Icad ended" Yay! Or "It's been X days since my last ICAD" You know, sort of like those meetings where people say how much time they have been clean and sober, haha for extra Drama, you could say X days, Y hours and Z minutes like you REALLY miss Icads
maybe you need to go through the 5 stages of grief, but you were getting sick of them. Hmm, would you say you're still in Denial about ICAD ending, or Anger, or Bargaining or whatever the next one is then Acceptance?
This LQQKS like you, to me....Has a real DENISE 'flavor' to it! I love your fonts and that quote? Almost scary how TRUE it is! Love it!!! I was on Etsy looking for poodle covid masks and came across a tshirt with a poodle on it, wearing a mask, paw sanitizer and gloves. It said "Ewww....PEOPLE!" I cracked up! Hey you...try creating without thoughts of doing voice overs or posting and let yourself go. Guilt, feeling obligated or whatever will steal your mojo and you've got tons. Just ease up on yourself and don't feel pressure to be overly chatty...just do your thing. Have you watched Lisa Oxley on YT....she says so much without saying a word. Luv you little girlie. Be NICE.... to YOU! xo
With your cat- just pet him, don't hold him. With you, maybe he just wants stand by attention... not smothery attention. I notice the cats at my patients homes come to new for attention and i don't want to hold them and get hair on me.. and they seem fine with being close and my petting them like that. They'll even purr. So .. idk ... just a thought.
I do that too. But he's SO CUTE AND FLUFFY - I want to hold him and kiss him and cuddle him! lol Sometimes he'll let me do it for about 20 seconds. On a few occasions he's let me do it for minutes!!!

Thank you so much!
lmao
"and achieve absolutely nothing"
That made me laugh.
You don't need to have guilt, you give so much. Thank you. It is nice to have some extra videos of yours to watch though! 😄
😊 thank you
Thanks for sharing, as I enjoyed your process and commentary. That background really came together, and the focal piece, etc., fit in nicely. 💕
Thank you so much! I didn't think it would, but it really did.

😁no no no x amount of days till the next icad series. NO! shhhhhh Bite your tongue.
and thank you. lol
Such a cool quote! I love your page, I’d really love to see a flip thru in the future. Don’t feel guilty, just do what you can! 💜💜😁
I want to do a flip through. I just need to actually finish an album! lol
Denise Lush I haven’t finished an art journal either... it’s not as easy as it seems. 😉
@@SammiJarrad it really isn't!
And, it turns out wonderfully!!!😁
Thank you.

Yes, they're hard getting use to because you want them to do what other paints do!
Thanks so much.
I really like how you keep,going, rather than applying gesso over it and beginning again. The black was being a pill but you figured out what to do. Have a fun weekend, my dear.
Thanks so much Cheryl. It really was being a pain in the ass. But I do love how it turned out.
Denise, some projects are just like that. I’ve enjoyed watching you play and doing so has made me play with my Gelli plates more.
@@cheryl7476 That's awesome!!! Love hearing that.
Awesome art. To the left of face college I see another face peaking Thur stencil COOL 😎
hmmm I'll have to check it out!
Thanks
I love this page! I have done that. Hugs
Thanks!
Hi!!! New subscriber here!!! Love the 2 videos of yours that I have found so far!!!
Welcome!!! Thank you so much!!! That makes me happy.
It's funny how some of the ones we don't like turn out better than that the ones we plan.....I like it..
Thank you! I ended up loving it as well!
It turned out amazing. That’s what happens when you push through the ugly phase ☺️😃😉
Sometimes anyway. lol
Thank you
And my moods don't line up with my schedule either. Plus the forgetting for me too.. i hear ya
lol It's rough!

I almost did many times. But so glad I didn't because I do love how it turned out!
I recently transferred my Dylusions paint in jars into small squeeze bottles. Much easier to use now!!
Mine are pass the saving point. I haven't checked all of them. Too annoyed to. lol
Where did you find the squeeze bottles?
My hardware store had a variety of different size containers, plastic jars and bottles and spray bottles I think.
Amazon 2 ounce (I think I got 18 in the pack) and yes I had to throw out quite a few too! They are handy for other stuff too!!
@@AndreaCinnamondCreative Thanks! I may check it out. First I should check my paints - i may not need any bottles. They may all be garbage!
Denise, I have five cats (was six but one passed) and every single one has a totally different personality.

lol Yes, it's been 13 days since I last did ICAD.
DEFINITELY ACCEPTANCE! lol
@@DeniseLushThat's what I thought, lol, but once you get into a habit, if feels weird not doing it anymore.
Oh I like that Quote, I'm borrowing that. I guess they're both bad for diabetics though. I needed a quote for my August planner
it's a good one
