Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
Q: Jeanne asks: "I like to use eye shadow to put a soft, pastel background on some of my cards. However, it tends to come off easily. Is there something I could use to "fix" it so it doesn't rub off?"
A: When I work with chalks or pastels I spray my work with a workable fixative (I use the Krylon brand) to keep it from smearing. I've heard that hairspray can work as well, but it may yellow over time.

Feedback From Past Tutorials
Elaine has an idea for the Designer Gift Clutch tutorial: "Two ideas came to light for this little clutch - BINGO gifts with stamps included, and holiday gifts for nursing home staff. I'm going to get busy. Thank you so much!"
