  • Hi, is the base of this tag a piece of cardboard? Thanks so much for the tutorial!

  • @cass2sons The base is heavy weight chipboard :-)

  • hi, rachel! question- do your cutndry foam pieces begin to crumble after a few uses? i bought some after seeing your video and just wanted to know if the wear is normal or if i'm using them incorrectly. thank you!

  • @littleglimpses Hi, Cut n' Dry eventually wears down, but not after a few uses unless you are using it on a textured surface - that would make it dissintergrate fairly quickly. The only times I've completely worn pieces out is when I'm doing a large swap, and have to ink a large number of cards / tags etc. You did buy the foam and not the felt???

  • @RachO113 that's what i thought!...it's ME. :) i did buy the foam. i've been cutting it into about 1 inch squares. too small maybe??? or perhaps i should be using the sides of the squares rather than the middles. i'm only working on tags for a mini book. ugh. would you mind explaining the way you handle the foam, please!?! help!

  • @littleglimpses Err, I dunno, I kind of just sponge it on without thinking about it - Probably watching me use it will give you the best idea, I suppose I go quite lightly as I like to build up colours slowly, but who knows, I never pay attention! lol Mine is also in squares about 1" so it's not the size that's an issue.

  • Thank you! Have a great day!

  • This is by far the best tutorial I have ever seen! Thank you so much for showing a newbie like me exactly how you created all those layers and for showing which products you were using. I am so inspired by this and can't wait to start creating. You are such a gifted artist!

  • @RachO113 yeh...i have been lightening up on it since my last not to you. it seems to be helping...thanks, rachel!

  • @laurelhill1 The Neopaques are a similar consistency to Lumiere, but are not metallic. They have been designed to show up well on dark surfaces.
