Peg stamps were a supply from my past. I gave all but one tiny spider away long ago. (not that I had as many as you). Now I wish I had saved them after watching all your recent videos. Love, love, love your videos, and this card in particular.
Once again, you showed me a new way to use what I already have. Your cards are beautiful. I use eyelets once in a while, but I don't have the fancy tools. I use a setting tool and a ball peen hammer on an old plastic cutting board. Not as easy, but get the same results. Use what we have, right?? Love all your videos. I come away having learned something every time. You make my retirement so much more pleasant.😀
Very nice card ; clever technique. Also loved your idea about storing stamps using laminated package & CD storage sleeves. Always a joy to watch your videos!
I thought I was really building up my Rubber Tapestry/peg stamp collection, but looking at yours I see how far behind I am. That is quite a collection. Love the technique you just showed us, and will try it out this weekend. I learn so much for you. Thanks for sharing!
love those cute little laminated peg stamp cards...and ALL THOSE PEG STAMPS...AHHHH! I love it! I was drooling! lol! Beautiful card as well...I love the watercolor technique! So neat! And very pretty! Thank you Lindsay! ☺
Wow! That's an impressive amount of peg-stamps! I am sooo jelly! Lol! I aspire to have that many peg-stamps someday. Those things look like so much fun. The cards you made are absolutely gorgeous! I can't wait to try that technique. You are a craft-genius! And you are my crafty hero. Hmmm... 💭 'Faster than a speeding 'To-Do' list! More Powerful Than An Urge To Nap!

Lovely Lindsay.. I was going to order your stamps today just to have something made by you.. but they are amazing and I love your videos sooo much.. hugs just love these cards and learned a lot..
Love the tutorials, tips and tricks, I guess I don't play enough to see what colors work well together, need to study the color wheel more. I really like how effortlessly you create.
Thank you, this was a beautiful card. I do enjoy learning about new ways to store my products, who doesn't need more organization. Yes, please keep the ideas coming.
What a gift to have found your videos. Years ago I was over the moon for Peg Stamps and got them out again tonight after watching your video and got the fever again. Love how you craft and teach, easy breezy cool! I want everything from your site of course but have started my Wishlist. Do you have and sell your extra index cards from old sets as I loved how you laminated them but I love to make Frig Magnets out of that size floral papers. IF so, would love to buy some, MANY! Being on a budget, have to allow biweekly purchases but so far, am loving your site/store. Thank you so much for getting me back into the joy of stamping again. After 25 yrs, I had lost interest but have got my Oxide Inks and ready to go!
thanks again! these really are perfect for batches of sympathy cards??? we could use our glitter inks for Christmas batches too.... such a versatile card idea for design challenged me
Hi Lindsay. I suffered a serious illness recently (basically I had 8 strokes in a 10 month period) and at the young age of 41 it was horrifying. I lost the ability to do all the things i love and had to alter my life drastically. I found art again which is great and your videos kept me going through the tough times and taught me a lot. Recently my local hobbycraft had a sale and reduced their 14ml winsor and newton professional paints to £1.00 each! As you can imagine I was gobsmacked at the price so I virtually cleared them out and bought over 100 tubes! So as a massive thankyou I would like to send you some if you would like? Let me know if you want some. Thanks again Lindsay and greetings from the UK.
aww, that is very kind of you but not necessary but I thank you for the offer, my watercolor paint drawers are full to bursting:) Great find though and I am sure you will go through them. Thank you for thinking of me tho, you are very sweet:)
Beautiful cards Lindsay, I am still struggling to find a great watercolour paper that is good for water colour but also for printing on too. In order that I can print an outline and water colour or colour with my Prismacolour coloured pencils. Great tips about the painter's tape thanks Lindsay and the containers. I try and find containers that are a good size for the objects that are to go in them. Re-cycled containers are great if you can get them other than that the Bargain stores are great for boxes, crates, baskets etc. too. Thank you for sharing this with us crafters today. :O)
The card is great; love it. Good storage solutions too. We eat a lot of ready to eat organic salad greens and I use the clear boxes it comes in for storage and organization. . They work well b/c they are see through and they have lids so you can stack them on top of each other if need be.
Not sure if you've heard this but if you store your ink pads upside down it helps keep the ink closer to the surface so they last longer. Im not sure if it matters when you refill them, but I know its helpled me keep mine wetter longer.
Linsey, I just love your enthusiasm and knowledge you share with all of us. Thank you! Love these cards, also. Question? What is the little acrylic piece you have your sponge in?
I ordered your stamps -- the tree stamps and they are awesome! Great video and ideas. Unfortunately I'm a klutz with a Cropodile and returned it. Need lessons for that as well!
The reinker for versafine isn't cheap, but I have the mini pad and my reinker should arrive tomorrow. I am paranoid about my pads drying out mid project. I love the oxides, but I need to buy rubber bands and store them upside down. I reink my oxides a lot. Thank you for your comments about the embossing pouch
Great cards Lindsey! Do u have any tutorials or an idea for DIY post it tape for masking??? A lot of ppl are using it for making cards... no money left for supplies for awhile unless I want to be divorced and live in a refrigerator box under an overpass somewhere. Haha!!! Thanks from a LONG time subbie... 2009 i think.. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Right! Lindsey you are talented. Plus I thought oh uh she’s stamping the black trees too much but it looks great! See! I wouldn’t have done that.y problem Is that I have a loaded and stocked craft room but I don’t wanna use all my beautiful inks, paints, copies and even my heavy weight watercolor paper n Bristol paper because I don’t wanna waste. I have to practice though. Get me some cheap paper, inks, and paints. Leave my expensive products when I learn more. Thanks for sharing. You need to come to San Diego and teach me. LOL. That would be totally amazing. Your awesome Lindsey.
My peg stamps are organized by what they are. Daisy & sunflower-type flowers, wild and domestic-type rose flowers, leaves, twigs, berries, animals, leafy twigs, pine (cones and needles), and Christmas are some of my categories. Size doesn’t matter because I pop them into a quart-sized ziplock bag which is plenty roomy. Right now, the bags are piled into 2 smallish cardboard boxes that live on my desk. The set from whence they came doesn’t matter to me.
I love the colors you used, and the tree stamps you designed! I've not found them in the UK yet...hoping someone here will start to carry them. Thanks for sharing!
And again, thanks for this tutorial, I love this technique. This is so beautiful, and I'm looking forward to practicing it. And awesome Tic Tac container reuse!
Awesome card! Love the storage ideas, I do the same thing, finding all kinds of containers to store my things in. I even use the little square tub I get when I go to the hospital! I was wondering why you don't use blue painters tape instead of masking tape? Just wondering. Have an awesome day!
Honestly, because the masking tape at the dollar tree is low tack like painters tape but way cheaper. When I learned that I stopped buying the blue stuff:)
Love your cards! Definitely plan to try some. Please hold the products still when you put them up to the camera. I'm getting eye strain trying to read the labels.
Hi Lindsay , Am waiting for my 2nd order from Peg Stamps, could you please tell me what glue to use to stick your red rubber stamps to acrylic blocks .thank you.
I mix a little aleenes tack it over and over with a little water and brush a thin coat of glue on the back of the stamp (trim them apart first tho!) and let it dry and you are good to go:) Here is the glue I use: pegstamps.com/aleene-s-tack-it-over-over.html
Lindsay, I wonder, if there are any alternative media I already have that I could use instead of distress inks or oxides, which I don’t have. I have watercolors (paints, pencils, and crayons), Pebbles chalks, die based ink pads, pigment inkpads, a few chalk ink pads, and water-based brush markers. Would any of these be a substitute for the distress products? Thanks!
Love the look of the cards but I don't have any of the things you used, I don't even have a crop-a-dile yet, but 1 question - do you have to use specific eyelets and brads with the crop-a-dile, like their brand only? I need to make a simple card for a friend who's in a lot of physical pain, so I wanted to make something to cheer her up. I'm going to look through some of your other videos for something I can do. Thanks again for everything. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
nope, they take any brand, in fact I on't think they even make eyelets. you can try other inks or watercolors for the color strip, get creative and use what you have!
Thank you so much Lindsay. You're the best. Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all your help and advice. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
I have become addicted to peg stamps lately. Love love love them
Very “friendly “ looking! Techniques are simple and also have beauty in blending shades! A great video to start a Friday morning! Ty!

I have been a fan of yours for a long time. You never disappoint with content or delivery. I love your storage ideas too!
Thanks ! Yes, I did enjoy this video and I'd love to see more smaller watercolor painting type content. But I love everything you do.
These cards are so beautiful!! The embossing powder and the watercolor looks amazing! Thank you Lindsay :)
thanks!
Love your ideas Lindsay, so much fun so amazing! I am overwhelmed! Time need more time.. lol
Your stamp sets are lovely, and so are your cards!
I love your bubbly personality,and I love your videos!
Lindsay, these are beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration!
Lindsay, you are one fast talker! Love your work.
sorry! I didn't realize I was going fast til I listened back, the chilly temperature in my studio put a little pep in my step...er, speech:)
Love both the Cards and the organization. Thanks.
Thanks Lindsay~ I love these cards. So easy and so versatile

Love the cards and the storage ideas are great, thanks so much.
Lindsay, You Rock! You always make me laugh! I always learn from you. Thank you for sharing!
Linsey, ever since I started attaching my embossing buddy to my Versamark inkpad with a rubber band, I haven’t forgotten to use it! 😂😂😂
Marji Miller That's a good tip, thanks!
great idea I constantly forget
good tip!
You have inspired me to rubberband my powder pouch to my heat gun so I don't forget about using it. Thank you for the inspiration!
I bought your trees and foliage stamps. I am loving them!
thank you!
Love this card technique and organizing videos too! Would love to see you do an Acrylic Pour please!!
thanks again! these really are perfect for batches of sympathy cards??? we could use our glitter inks for Christmas batches too.... such a versatile card idea for design challenged me
Beautiful cards, very helpful video, thanks.
Love the cards... look 👀 at all those peg stamps 😱 love it!
Always interested in storage ideas....thanks!.

Beau-ti-ful !!!! Loooove them !!! Thanks Lindsay

Wow! Those cards look great - love the watercolor effect the Distress Oxides create. Cheers
Hi Lindsay. I suffered a serious illness recently (basically I had 8 strokes in a 10 month period) and at the young age of 41 it was horrifying.

aww, that is very kind of you but not necessary but I thank you for the offer, my watercolor paint drawers are full to bursting:) Great find though and I am sure you will go through them. Thank you for thinking of me tho, you are very sweet:)

+Lorraine Turner try fabrino studio hot press #140 watercolor paper, good quality and affordable
can't wait to try this technique. Thanks for sharing
Great cards Lindsay!
+Michelle Amoroso Lutz thanks!
Love these cards and will definitely laminate the material that comes with the peg stamps. What a great idea!😁👍🏻
thanks! I was so pleased with how they turned out!
I love these cards!
Gorgeous , love the stamp sets
Always looking for organization ideas. Love the cards
Thank-you! This was so very interesting!!!😊
This is really beautiful
The card is great; love it. Good storage solutions too. We eat a lot of ready to eat organic salad greens and I use the clear boxes it comes in for storage and organization. . They work well b/c they are see through and they have lids so you can stack them on top of each other if need be.
good idea especially for light things like ribbon, feathers and yarn!
Loved this! Thank you for being so inspiring!
Not sure if you've heard this but if you store your ink pads upside down it helps keep the ink closer to the surface so they last longer. Im not sure if it matters when you refill them, but I know its helpled me keep mine wetter longer.
Love your work😃
love your card .
Linsey, I just love your enthusiasm and knowledge you share with all of us. Thank you! Love these cards, also. Question? What is the little acrylic piece you have your sponge in?
+Kat M it is a glass chess peice
Great fun wonderful cards!
Love the card! Thank you
Those cards are awesome. Also that is a crazy amount of peg stamps. 🤑🤑
I know, it's getting out of hand LOL! They all work so well together that I am constantly using different ones.
Love these cards. Hugs xxx
Great video Lindsay! 😁
I ordered your stamps -- the tree stamps and they are awesome! Great video and ideas. Unfortunately I'm a klutz with a Cropodile and returned it. Need lessons for that as well!
I really like mine but we are all different, other punches might suit you better
The reinker for versafine isn't cheap, but I have the mini pad and my reinker should arrive tomorrow. I am paranoid about my pads drying out mid project.
I love the oxides, but I need to buy rubber bands and store them upside down. I reink my oxides a lot.
Thank you for your comments about the embossing pouch
Love the cards! I need to remember to use some eyelets. I have bunches:) Quick question-where do you typically buy your reinkers.
Beautiful!
Great cards Lindsey! Do u have any tutorials or an idea for DIY post it tape for masking???

Ps I love your new stamp sets! You go girl!
Very lovely.
love love love these
I would tell you that these cards are beautiful but everyone else already has!😀
aww, thank you!
Right! Lindsey you are talented. Plus I thought oh uh she’s stamping the black trees too much but it looks great! See! I wouldn’t have done that.y problem

I have that same wire bin! I think it originally had bath/body products. I love to repurpose containers.
yes it was!
I love the colors you used, and the tree stamps you designed! I've not found them in the UK yet...hoping someone here will start to carry them. Thanks for sharing!
rubber stamp tapestry will ship but if you want a local vendor you can ask your local store to stock them. I think RST sells wholesale.
I will ask around my local stores, thanks 😀
And again, thanks for this tutorial, I love this technique. This is so beautiful, and I'm looking forward to practicing it. And awesome Tic Tac container reuse!
Great ideas!
Impressive cards ! My unmounted rubber stamps do not stick to acrylic blocks. Are you using adhesive or a different kind of block?
Love the card. How did you make the handle for the makeup sponge?
I Love your video! Would watercolours work for this also. I don't have any distress products.
Which heat tool do you use, Lindsey? I've had no "luck" with mine and would like to buy one that's stood the test of time. ;)
Thank you.
Awesome card! Love the storage ideas, I do the same thing, finding all kinds of containers to store my things in. I even use the little square tub I get when I go to the hospital!
I was wondering why you don't use blue painters tape instead of masking tape? Just wondering. Have an awesome day!
Honestly, because the masking tape at the dollar tree is low tack like painters tape but way cheaper. When I learned that I stopped buying the blue stuff:)
Well that makes sense! sorry i was just wondering, thank you!
Love the look of these cards! Is it just water in the spray bottle?
+ktqn1 yes:)
Do you make these cards to sell or for personal use? Can you sell things made with stamps or is there any copyright type issues? Thanks
Yes, you can sell hand stamped cards and art made with the stamps:) They are an angel company:)
Love your cards! Definitely plan to try some. Please hold the products still when you put them up to the camera. I'm getting eye strain trying to read the labels.
I'm sorry, I linked to the products in the video description too, hope that helps.
hey!!can you please review royal talen art creation watercolour❤
Organization is what i need for my craft room i have to box everything up so I can get the room cleaned up again
You can do it! I did major declutter last year and it was the best thing I ever did for my home

Very nice
Can you give us more storage tips please

I have a tutorial where I fake the look of distress oxides with dyeink and awhite pigment ink pad here: ruclips.net/video/IZDfEk4A5Ms/видео.html
Love those cards! Where did you get those eyelets? Please tell me.
I know Holly Lobby has some, but if one is not close to you then there's always amazon, they have pretty much everything.
Jasper Martin yes I know they have some, thank you, Micheals, Joanne’s, and Walmart do too. But I was wondering where she got those specific colors.
Holly Lobby has those specific colors :-) I almost bought some the last time I was there but then decided I'd bought enough other stuff, lol.
Nice cards.....tfs
thanks!
