I don't get to Michael's much because it is about 80 miles away. The last time I was there (late April), they had replaced some of the Golden acrylics with their own line of professional acrylics. ...

Just adding my rather late two cents: I've seen some comments along the lines that the big US-based companies should be able to shut down companies producing knockoff products. I really don't think...

Thanks for the suggestion about the magpie video. I loved her print. That was sorto like using Plan B as your Plan A. :)

You may want to try Hobby Lobby. They carry Cloth Paper Scissors and some of Stampington's magazines. I think you can use their weekly coupons on the magazines. I was able to do that a few years...

I used to subscribe, too. I've had to tighten the purse strings in recent years, however, so I've let all my magazine subscriptions expire. I still keep the old issues of CPS and occasionally will...

Yes, it does make sense. :) I've found that Folk Art paints seem to be thicker than other craft paints, although that may not be true of all varieties of the Folk Art brand. I've had to use...

Those are great, smadson. I especially like the one in the lower left. It looks like there is no border around it, but that's not why I like it. The colors are really pretty. What sort of paints...

I think Barnes & Noble carries most of the magazines from both Stampington and Interweave. JoAnn Fabric usually has a good selection, too. We have a Hastings where I live, and they carry a lot of...

Good idea. The acrylic paints you have on hand will probably work fine.

I wish you well! :)

Hi, Kathy/muscrat. The glazing liquid I mentioned was Golden's Acrylic Glazing liquid, which comes in a tall bottle with a screw nozzle sort of like a Plochman's mustard container. That's probably...

Hi, everyone!

I agree with you that Somerset Studio went through a period where the magazine was adrift. Seemed as if it was mostly stamping and calligraphy projects in the early years, then it went toward mixed...

I don't follow the trends either, but it is fun to speculate and discuss what's out there now and what trends are still hot or seem to be on the upswing. I don't know that jewel tones and metallics...

Punches take up a lot more storage room than dies and over time probably cost more, plus they are aren't very versatile. One of these days, when I have some extra money, I will have to break down...

Pantone has named its color of the year for 2012: Tangerine Tango, which is a deep orange. Almost looks like someone mixed a drop or two of black paint into a container of orange paint. Tangerine...

Don't know about peach and teal together, but tealish colors are big now. I could see peach making a comeback, since orange is popular. Keep it far away from teal, and it wouldn't be half bad, LOL....
