We always told our kids that if they didn’t come home messy from playing, they didn’t have any fun! I have played with powders before, but it’s always good to see how other people use the backgrounds. Using the colorful part as the shadow for a sentiment is a wonderful idea. Thanks so much for sharing.

I remember when I made them I had the intention of using watercolours with perfect pearl mixed in or something. I was sat admiring the beautiful image when my many bottles of magic powders jumped into my head!!..Can't wait to try them l out and see how it goes! Yours came out beautifully.

@Ardyth • WOW!!! You really covered a lot in this video. So first, yes, I agree the cards with the blue background are my favorite, too. I like your tip on using a sentiment with thick, chunky letters when you have a busy panel, whether created or pattern paper. Pulling out the black cardstock then offsetting it is a great solution for legibility. The use of the Stardust Stickles to enhance the white space around the blue/red/purple flower is great, not just on this card, but for upcoming winter/Christmas. I think too often we get in the rut of just using the shimmer for focus or to enhance individual elements. You've led us out of the rut onto a new field to explore. Great tip! Your tip and illustration on how to narrow down the tag was clear, inventive, and demonstrates the importance of balanced, proportional elements. Great technique & great tip. I can't decide whether I like the oblong for the "Hello" or the shadow for the "Thanks" better. Both elements change the background from too dark to dramatic. A technique I'll definitely need to remember. Finally, as I said at the beginning, the blue background card is my favorite. I think with the blooming flowers, the blue transports us to those warm but not humid summer days when the weather (and garden) seem to be perfect. I love the way you used the scalloped edge because the roundness compliments the flower. The script of "Hugs" is adorable, too. Now hopping off to visit Arjita Sepaha singh.
