Not sure if everyone already knew this trick but I just learned it so thought I’d share.
To keep your mediums/glues from drying out, cover and push down some press and seal before putting the lid on.

Makes sense, good tip!
I think it may have been @geekgirl who mentioned scooping out of a larger container just what is needed rather than contaminating the whole thing every time it’s used.

I learned the hard and stinky way not to dip into the original tub! I will now put on a piece of press n seal as well…no sense wasting the stuff…thanks!
My high school chemistry teacher drilled that into our heads 
It’s been a few weeks since we’ve done a zoom. I’d be in for one this weekend or next at the “usual” time. Maybe the circles video from above?
I’m always keen to join in a Zoom, whenever we have one

You read my mind. I was thinking this Sunday.
I’ve just been slammed at work and haven’t had 2 minutes to schedule it.
I’m all for the circles. I’ll post it this evening

Art Journaling Zoom
Sunday June 6 2pm Eastern Time
Supplies needed:
- background to work on
- gesso (gesso your page before hand if you can)
- paint brushes / water for cleaning brushes
- acrylic paints. She uses metallics but that’s not necessary
- she uses magical powders and a spray brush but I know many of us don’t have those. You can use watered down acrylics, watercolors, shavings off of watercolor pencils or crayons, etc.
- palette knife, credit card, piece of cardboard, or something to scrap paint with
- stamps and inks
- stencils
- circles. She uses circle stamps that are solid, not just an outline but you could use bottle caps, tp rolls, etc and stamp on a circle outline and paint in the circle
- markers, paint pens, gel pens
- a heat gun or hair dryer is useful
- paper towels/wipes
I’ll send the zoom info to the people who vote “I’m in!” on Saturday.
- I’m in!
- Not this time.

I messed up the poll so if you just voted you’ll need to revote. You should see your profile pic once you vote.

Oh no. I voted yes but completely forgot we have a family bike ride planned. It’s possible we will be back in time but I think it’s more likely I’ll miss this one. Sorry to mess up my vote…d’oh!

#1 I would love a porch, it’s not a very common thing in Australia
#2 I can’t wait to craft with friends once all these lockdowns are over

We are out of lockdown but with most restrictions still in place.
I love the porch, we looked for a house with a nice one. Our last place had a teeny narrow thing, we could put our feet up on the railing from our seats! We had coffee out there most days anyhow so knew we’d appreciate something nicer.
