    The product that I use and use and use is similar to your paint stick. It's Caran d 'Ache neocolor II water soluble crayons. I do a lot of fine art as well, so invested heavily in the largest size tin. Definitely not cheap. But they create so many looks. You can apply them dry - heavily or lightly - for one look. You can wet the pigment once applied to the paper and the color shifts. You can make that wet area a complete wash or leave different opacities and thicknesses of the pigment. You also get a special strong color by drawing/painting with the crayon after you have wet it. Thank you for this tutorial. I inherited dozens of scrapbook papers that are way too garish for my taste and now you've given me a method to make them useful. You also made me google postcards to see that unfinished line in the middle of them 😆

    You are a miracle worker. I've had these old little squares of chalk forever. I don't even know why I tried to save them. And now I have used them on some marble looking wild pink and white cardstock that I didn't like and haven't used. And you have helped me transform it into something usable. I cannot thank you enough for your RUclips channel. It took me awhile to get into what you do. But now that I have I just love it

    The background distressed like this looks like a vintage wallpaper 😍, I have also purchased last year a 12×12 floral papers and I've used from it 2 sheets of paper. Now you have given me an idea of how to use them and I also keep the old eyeshadow pallets trying to use them to distress the pockets, embellishments and edges of the pages. This project is so much fun, totally love it ❤ thanks for sharing.

    Joie~What a great idea, I can't wait to try it. You always look so "together". Your nails are lovely, as is your voice, and your projects have class. If I may, there is a proper term for the yellowing on the edges of the pages, either like what you are using, or in a book. It's called "foxing". xx

    Oh, these are so wonderful! So unique. I love you have different ways to go vintage. Something other than "coffee dye and distress ink edges"!! Going to do this as soon as I get home. Had to go to my kids, cuz no power or water for week at my house in Central Texas!! It's been a MESS down here. Grocery stores all closed, Or have empty shelves. Delivery trucks couldn't get in. I think I'm finally going home tomorrow, after 8 days away. Just too cold and difficult.
    And I took NO craft supplies with me. Just been crocheting mini doilies for embellishments.
    Yep,...got a makeup graveyard too. I always forget about them. Their sparkle is great add.
    I too was wondering about eye shadow and chalk being "set" with something. I use hair spray or tad bit spray acrylic on watercolors.
    Well thanks for another fantastic video. I think this is one of your BEST VIDEOS.

    Dear Joie, It is quite marvelous and so very inspirational to view your videos.... I am at the baby steps of art journaling ....
    Determined to only use the materials I already have, I try this system--instead of buying stamps, I find an image I like, I trace it onto tracing paper, turn the paper over and rub a block of graphite in good amount over it... turn it over again & place it upon my paper....using a skinny ballpoint pen, I trace over the image and the image is beautifully transferred to my paper. Graphite can be bought in diff colors...black, brown, sepia, white etc.
    Many heartfelt thanks to you for your gracious story-telling approach to making art.... 🌹

I did enjoy her accent, and her cute little vocabulary. I thought of some thing as I was watching your podcast, I have never heard of an American being in another country, and someone saying ” oh!!

Excited to get started using chalks as well, your postcards are so beautiful and can't wait to give this a try. Can't seem to finish journals cause I'm making more ephemera then journals so this will be on my list to start tomorrow. Thanks for sharing and explaining in all your videos its helpful/useful and it does always make a difference once the items are completed!!!!

    @sararichards518 4 года назад +1

    Your postcards are gorgeous Joie. Yellowing at the side of your page is called foxing and we actually get a magazine called Slightly Foxed which has articles about vintage books of course! I love your stamps. I’m spent up. I will go “shopping” in my own stash. Can you suggest a way to get stamped lines without a stamp. I’m thinking about wool or something similar - what would you suggest?

    • @joiedefi
      @joiedefi  4 года назад

      Stamped lines without a stamp....try gluing string in a wiggly shape onto an old ink pad. Make your own stamp. String is less absorbant than wool so should retain more shape. Or draw freehand? Use a watercolour pencil so you can blur the lines a bit. Foxing is a new term for me today, cheers buddy 🤓👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💜💜💜

    Thank you so much for this video Joie. I have so many of the paper/cardstock packs from the works and didn't know what to do with them other than look and admire the pretty designs. I also have a very old chalk set which I used once or twice 10years or longer ago now I know what to do with both. Do you think I could use pastels too? found a large set of them in a box again not looked at since goodness knows when. I am so pleased that people are starting to recognise your talent. You have totally inspired me and your videos have kept me going while I am going through cancer treatment. You are a life saver especially in the early hours of the morning when I can't sleep. Keep up the good work and I am looking forward to your next video. xx

    • @joiedefi
      @joiedefi  4 года назад +1

      Awww Pauline....first of all I'm sending you my best wishes...thanks too for such an amazing comment. I think that pastels would work... sometimes I use mine. I scratch pastel dust off and dab the foam into that for more colour when I need it. More control that way. Definitely watch next week.... something special coming for my subscribers to celebrate 25,000 clicking that button. 💜💜💜

    I Love these Joie. I have the same paper pad so definitely going to have fun playing. I have recently bought the Tim Holtz deckle edge trimmer and I absolutely love it. I know it’s a relatively new product and not cheap but I’m so pleased I went for it and bought it. Also what’s the long fern type stamp you’re using from? I love the effect it gives. 😁🌸🌻🦋

    • @joiedefi
      @joiedefi  4 года назад +2

      Sounds like a good purchase 👍🏻😁 The fern stamp I'm struggling to identify at the moment. It's an old one, like lots of my stuff. I'll keep trying to find the wrapper 🤭 Glad you enjoyed this one....I keep trying to improve as I learn how to use editing software. 👍🏻💜
