Gorgeous tissue background, Loll for your stunning die cut heart image!!! I watched your new video with my twin sister and we both came away with some beautiful tissue paper backgrounds. Your technique worked beautifully..no torn tissue :-) Can't wait to try your heat embossing technique and more:-)
TFS your gorgeous card today and your amazing Tissue Paper video. Oh my, but you are talented my friend!!! Hugs..
Your tissue paper background is gorgeous, Loll and looks stunning with that beautiful die-cut.
Oh, Loll, this is a gorgeous card, and I really loved the video! I am not a mixed-media gal or one who does many techniques, but you've really enticed me with this one, my friend! I love this gorgeous die and the beautiful colors! Thanks for sharing this card and your video! I just may try this for the challenge! Hugs!
A fabulous card - beautiful background and lovely colours too.

I love it when you produce videos - you are just so informative and helpful - plus in this video you gave a TON of ideas - I can't wait to see the cards in the next few posts!. BTW the idea of using tiles for heat embossing is just brilliant - I think I am going to get myself a big tile at Lowe's this weekend! You are the best!
Such exotic color combinations, Loll! This heart looks beautiful, I associate with the tropics :-) Thank you for your film. You can teach new techniques so beautifully :-)
Hugs,

That an incredible and innovative technique, Loll! I truly enjoyed your video and the ideas you incorporated! The card turned out so beautifully! This will help so many of us who have no watercoloring talent. Thank you too for the video!
Fabulous card, Loll, love the die you've used and the background is beautiful. Thanks for the video tutorial, really informative and helpful. (I gave you a thumbs up!) xx

Congratulations and Happy Birthday to Canada...1-5-0 sure is a special milestone. Great looking card. Love your combo of spray colors with that die. You have a good eye for finding unique and interesting dies. Plus for making videos - look forward to watching yours and others later today and giving this technique a whirl.
Fabulous work! I actually watched the video on You Tube before coming here as I subscribe to your channel. :) That looks like a very fun technique. Thank you for always sharing new and what looks to be a fairly easy idea to implement. So appreciate it and you! :)
Oh wow, can't wait to try this. The cards are just beautiful and so many ways to make these. I am just now doing the alcohol ink backgrounds from your videos. You are so creative and thanks for sharing. It is expanding my world and showing me how to use all these supplies I have!
Interesting technique with a beautiful result.

Hi Loll, I did not play with CAS Mix Up July Challenge. Yet I made a Mixed Media Tag based on your video inspirations. I'd like to share it with you. Please take a look at my blog at http://stampfairy-helen.blogspot.tw/2017/08/happiness-is-contagious.html. Thanks so much again for your great video inspirations.
