 Hey guys, how are you today? So we are here with another design team video challenge video and This month I challenged the team with mark making. There are so many different ways to make marks in mixed media The list and possibilities are completely endless. Most of my product line though is Developed around and revolving around the idea of how can I help you make more interesting marks? At least I hope that's that's my idea. I hope I'm accomplishing that but I don't know you guys are the ones to say So this month I wanted to see what they could do with my products whether they're digital the digital downloads a physical product a Stamp a stencil or something to see what they could do with making marks now I am have been for quite a few months now developing a new line of products That's going to be available in a couple of different places One of them is in the Etsy shop. I my sister is a feng shui expert and Is that how you pronounce it Elizabeth feng shui feng shui feng shui? Anyway, you know good it balance energy balancing, right? It's not about good energy or bad energy It's about balancing said energy you can't in your life have the good You know there was that old saying you can't have the good without the bad That's true and it's about balance so as part of helping her with some things for her business Which I've been doing including logo work for her And I will include a link to her website in the description below our Facebook page I think it's a Facebook page right now One of the things that kind of came about by accident was a Yang Yang ruler So I found this really interesting So how fun would it be to take something like this to make not only make marks on your page? But you could use this to trace out the yin yang shape on your journal page or your canvas You could within each shape on one side put The good so say something in life is bothering you put the good or the blessing on one side the bad On the other side and then cover the whole thing up with artwork You know way of therapeutically working out the good and the bad and balancing out the the to and coming to a Solution for you that helps you live with both I thought it was really interesting and plus you could just doodle you could just you maybe that's just too much for you you could use the shapes to just create an interesting doodle and You know bonus you if you're not into the whole yang yang shing Yin Yang thing and you know are you into paisley patterns because that's really it's a shape of a paisley pattern So they come in oops three sizes three six and Jumbo nine size nine inch size So from tip to tip They are made out of Plexi and they have a protective clear frosted coating on it. That's what you see here They're actually clear, but there's a protective layer of plastic on them. So you get three in the set They're about 1250 a set At least as of right now So they are available in the Etsy shop and those among other things and I can't wait to see what the design team And you guys do with them. So I am going to link the Etsy store in the description below along with the design team blog page and Every week as they come out with Videos I make them live for that month for this month for October So if their link doesn't work, it's because their video is not live yet, but there are other videos do work So go watch them start in January and go forward Don't forget to show them some love. There's some really great content out there with the team and Yeah, what can you do with making mark make making marks in your work with the tools for my Etsy shop? And if you have the yin-yang rulers, I would love to see what you do I do think my friend Cindy udder has made a video And if I can figure out which one it is if I can get a link I will link that also in the description below she was a part of the test team for these and she created some fun content So that's it for right now.
