but I'm not alone.
Over 2.5 billion people have smartphones now, and a lot of them are having a hard time putting
them down.
There's a new app that aims to curb phone addiction.
Addiction is money.
Are we a nation of smartphone addicts?The problem is, our devices are designed to keep
us engaged.
They're intentionally addicting.
But if you understand the tricks that grab your attention, you can learn to have a healthier
relationship with your phone.
I think we're living inside of two billion Truman Shows.
Where, you know, Truman Show, you wake up and everything is sort of coordinated just
for you.
And you really don't even realize it, but it's coordinating just to entertain you, or
just to engage you.
That's Tristan Harris, he worked as Google's design ethicist, and now he runs a nonprofit
initiative called Time Well Spent, advocating for awareness of how tech companies profit
off of users' attention.
It's not designed to help us, it's just designed to keep us hooked.
So I handed him my phone and asked him how he'd fix it.
It starts with turning off all notifications, except for when a real human is trying to
reach you.
When you get a call, a text, or a message, it's usually because another person wants
to communicate with you, but a lot of today's apps simulate the feeling of that kind of
social interaction, to get you to spend more time on their platform.
If Facebook sends you a push notification that a friend is interested in an event near
you, they're essentially acting like a puppet master, leveraging your desire for social
connections so that you use the app more.
But notifications didn't always work like this.
When push notifications were first introduced for email on Blackberries in 2003, they were
actually seen as a way for you to check your phone less.
You could easily see emails as they came in, so you didn't have to repeatedly open your
phone to refresh an inbox.
But today you can get notifications from any app on your phone.
So, every time you check it, you get this grab bag of notifications that can make you
feel a broad variety of emotions.
If it wasn't for random, if it was predictably bad or predictably good, then you would not
get addicted.
The predictability would take out the addictiveness.
And, it's effective.
Slot machines make more money in the US than baseball, movies, and theme parks combined
and they become addicting about 3-4 times faster than other kinds of gambling.
Some apps even replicate the process of pulling a slot machine lever with the "pull to refresh"
feature.
That's a conscious design choice.
Those apps are usually capable of continuously updating content, but the pull action provides
an addicting illusion of control over that process.
In the future, we might see healthier ways of delivering notifications.
Research shows that bundling notifications, where phones deliver a batch of updates at
set times, reduces user stress.
Then, you have to grayscale your screen.
The easiest way to attract your eye's attention on a screen is through color.
Human eyes are sensitive to warm colors.
In eye-tracking tests like this one, they gravitate particularly to bright red.
That's why so many apps have redesigned their icons to be brighter, bolder, and warmer over
the years.
It's also why notification bubbles are red.
A little icon like this, or this, doesn't have the same impact on your attention as
this.
But you can neutralize that distracting effect by selecting a greyscale color filter in your
phone's accessibility settings.
When you make everything black and white, your brain isn't tricked into thinking that
this is any more important to you than this.
I mean, there's a reason why slot machines are bright and color and flashing lights and
ding ding ding ding ding.
They have the sensory input too, right.
And so, just noticing that if I take out the color, it changes some of the addictiveness.
Finally, restrict your home screen to everyday tools.
Make sure that your home screen, when you unlock it, doesn't have anything except for
the in-the-moment tools that help you live your life.
I have Lyft, to get somewhere when I need to get somewhere, Maps, Calendar.
None of these are apps that I can fall into and then get sucked down some bottomless vortex
of stuff.
If you're not sure what counts as a bottomless vortex of stuff, it helps to filter out apps
that use infinite scrolling.
Unlike pagination, where users have to click to load new content on another page, infinite
scrolling continuously loads new material so there's no built-in endpoint.
Video autoplay works in a similar way.
These interfaces create a frictionless experience, but they also create a user's sense of control
and make it harder to stop.
Research shows that people rely on visual cues more than internal cues to stop consuming
something.
In a 2005 study, individuals who ate soup out of a self-refilling bowl, ate 73% more
than those who ate out of a normal bowl filled up by servers.
But those who ate from the self-refilling bowl, didn't feel any more satisfied.
So, a visual cue, like an endpoint, is better at telling you the right time to stop than
your own sense of satisfaction.
And because so many apps don't have an endpoint, you have to build your home screen around
the eventuality of distraction.
We check our phones a lot.
Most of us drastically underestimate how often we do so.
But technology might not always look this way.
There are ideas for alternative interfaces that give you functional choices and are more
transparent about how much time you'll lose with one action, versus another.
But it's a really deep philosophical question: what is genuinely worth your attention?
On an interruptive basis?
Do people even know how to answer that question?
It's a really hard question, it's not something we think about.
But, for now, it's a question that everybody needs to start asking.
Thank you so much for watching, this has been episode 1 of By Design, this is gonna be a
new series looking at different topics in design, in technology, looking at how human
decisions on one end of creating something affect people on the other end.

How Patronage turned a Painter into a Cocktail. - Duration: 18:11.
Welcome to the Endless Knot cocktail bar! Today we're mixing up some Bellinis and
talking about the artist, the cocktail, and patronage!
The Bellini is a cocktail made from Prosecco sparkling wine and peach purée, invented
in Venice by Giuseppe Cipriani, and the story of its name is one of patronage of all kinds.
In the 1920s Cipriani had worked his way up through the restaurant business, eventually
finding himself as bartender at the high-class Hotel Europa bar in Venice. In 1929 he got
to know one of the bar's regular patrons, Harry Pickering, a young rake with a drinking
problem from a wealthy Bostonian family. Pickering had been sent to Venice with his aunt (along
with her lover and a Pekinese) in an attempt to dry him out. Obviously the plan failed.
Then one day Harry stopped showing up at the bar. He had had a falling out with his aunt,
who then left with her lover, leaving Harry with no money, a large hotel and bar bill,
and the Pekinese. Wanting to help his friend, Cipriani asked how much he needed, and Harry
replied that he needed enough for one last drink at the bar, to pay his bills, and to
buy his boat ticket home, about 10,000 lire, which was about $500 USD at the time or around
$8000 today. Cipriani scrounged up the money, and Harry set off home. A few years later,
in 1931, Harry Pickering returned to Venice, with not only the 10,000 lire to repay the
loan, but with an additional 40,000 lire for Cipriani to open his own bar, saying "Let's
call it Harry's Bar!" So Harry Pickering went from a bar patron to the wealthy patron
of a bar—I'll come back to the web of related meanings of the word 'patron'
in a bit! Since then, Harry's Bar has become an iconic Venetian landmark, with many famous
patrons of its own, including Ernest Hemingway, Charlie Chaplin, Humphrey Bogart and Lauren
Bacall, and even many crowned heads of Europe. Giuseppe even named his own son after the
bar (and its patron), Arrigo (the Italian form of Harry), and he's now the current
proprietor of the much expanded family restaurant and hotel business. At the end of WWII, after
the liberation of Venice, Harry's Bar briefly became an unofficial officers' mess for
American and British soldiers, but soon after it returned to its usual clientele of celebrities
which more recently included the likes of Kim Kardashian and George Clooney.
Well some time between 1934 and 1948, Giuseppe invented the cocktail Bellini by mixing puréed
white peaches with the Italian sparkling wine Prosecco, with the original recipe also containing
a little raspberry juice for colour. Prosecco and peach, by the way, are both toponyms,
that is they come from place names. Prosecco is named after the Italian town near Triest
and close to the border with Slovenia, where the grape varietal and wine come from, and
in turn the town's name actually comes from a Slovene word meaning "path cut through
the woods". Peach comes from the name Persia, as the fruit was called Persikon malon "Persian
apple" in Greek. Giuseppe named the resulting drink Bellini after the Venetian Renaissance
artist Giovanni Bellini, because the colour of the cocktail reminded him, so the story
goes, of the colour of a saint's robes in a Bellini painting. Bellini's name, by the
way, comes from Italian bello "beautiful" from Latin bellus "beautiful" ultimately
from the Proto-Indo-European root *deu- "to do, show favour, revere". Cipriani was again
inspired by Renaissance art in the naming of another signature recipe from Harry's
Bar, carpaccio, a dish of thinly sliced raw beef served with lemon juice, olive oil, and
white truffle or Parmesan cheese. He named this dish after Venetian painter Vittore Carpaccio,
again because the colour of the meat reminded him of the rich use of colour by the artist.
Well, he wasn't wrong. The Venetian school of painting is particularly known for emphasizing
colour over line, as opposed to the Florentine school. The story goes that the beef dish
was invented for the countess Amalia Nani Mocenigo, as her doctors had recommended she
only eat raw meat. Another well-known recipe to come out of Harry's Bar is the Montgomery
Martini, named after British Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery, so called because of its
15 to 1 ratio of gin to vermouth, as Montgomery was purported to have liked a 15 to 1 ratio
of his troops to the enemy on the battlefield. During WWII, Montgomery was involved in the
Invasion of Sicily, then continued to command the Eighth Army into mainland Italy, before
being reassigned to northern Europe for the rest of the war. So he wasn't in Venice
in Harry's Bar at the end of the war, but in north Germany. But let us return to Venice,
in the Renaissance, to look more closely at those Venetian painters.
As I said, Venetian painting was known for its vibrant use of colour, as well as its
subtlety of light. And one reason was its geography. You see tempera paint, which was
water soluble, didn't stand up well in the damp conditions of canal-filled Venice. So
the Venetians were quick to adopt the new oil paints developed in the north in Flanders.
The knock-on advantage of oil paint is it allows for those deep colours that Venetian
artists became known for through the application of many layers of paint. Oil painting may
have been brought to Venice by Antonello da Messina, who was himself influenced by early
Netherlandish painting, and along with Leonardo da Vinci was an important influence on the
Venetian style. But we'll get back to Leonardo in a minute. At the heart of the Venetian
style of painting was the Bellini family. Giovanni's father Jacopo and brother Gentile
were also noted painters, as was his brother-in-law Andrea Mantegna. And from Giovanni Bellini's
workshop came the well-known Venetian artists Titian and Giorgione. Vittore Carpaccio, who
as we saw was also a source of naming inspiration at Harry's Bar, studied under Giovanni Bellini's
brother Gentile. Now one really important thing to understand
about Renaissance art is the role of patronage, to return to that topic. It's hard to overstate
the importance of the role of major patrons like the Medici family in Florence in driving
Renaissance humanism by supporting the work of artists, writers, and philosophers. But
Renaissance art patronage is a little different from today's patron of the arts, who typically
invests large sums of money in large institutions. In many ways, the creation of art during the
Renaissance was a collaborative effort between patron and artist, with the patron requesting
a certain content in, say, a painting, and the artist executing that request. This is
rather different from the way art collecting tends to work today, in which the collector
buys ready-made art, the content of which was solely up to the artist. Even back in
the Renaissance, some bolder artists, as we'll see, might quibble with the patron's requests
or even outright refuse the commission if it didn't suit their personal style, but
mostly that's how it worked. And patrons would often commission works for public consumption
such as a sculpture for the city or frescoes for the churches, with their private collections
often serving as backdrop to their diplomatic and political work. The mutual relationship
between patron and artist would benefit the status of both: as an artist, to have your
work in the collection of a notable figure would raise your profile, and patrons would
wish to collect works from all the big name artists. And presumably some element of this
Renaissance practise is what the modern company Patreon wants to evoke with its name—though
in a more grass-roots way—by allowing anyone to financially support artists and creative
people, and to become participants in the creative process. Now while the usual model
of patronage in Renaissance Italy was the single commission, sometimes a wealthy family
would hire a salaried court artist, as the Gonzaga family who ruled Mantua did. Ludovico
Gonzaga had appointed Andrea Mantegna, who you remember was the brother-in-law of Bellini,
as court painter. Mantegna became quite close to the family and a good friend of Ludovico's
son Federico, and his connection continued as the dynasty was passed down to Federico's
son Francesco, being taken in particular under the wing of Francesco's wife, Isabella d'Este.
Appropriately, perhaps, the word dynasty may be related to Bellini's name, through Greek
dynasthai "to be able", which possibly goes back to the same PIE root.
Isabella, whose name, by the way, is NOT, despite appearances, related to 'Bellini',
being instead a version of the Hebrew name Elishebha (which comes into English as "Elizabeth"),
was a remarkable woman, both as one of the premiere patrons and as a political figure.
She seems to have gained much of her political acumen from her mother Eleonora of Aragon,
who had governed Ferrara during the frequent absences of Isabella's father Ercole d'Este,
Duke of Ferrara, and was by some accounts a superior administrator to her husband. In
turn Isabella was able to govern Mantua in Francesco's absence, and when he was taken
captive in Venice, Isabella took charge of Mantua's military and successfully defended
the city. As she thus earned the reputation of being superior to her husband in administrative
and political matters, he was humiliated and furious upon his release, and the two led
mostly separate lives from that point. After his death, Isabella again took up the reins
of power serving as regent until her son came of age, and achieved many notable political
successes on behalf of Mantua. Isabella had received a good classical education as a child,
which sparked her interest in antiquities, and she became an avid collector. In addition,
her education and innate intelligence allowed her to take part in the humanist philosophy
at the heart of the Italian Renaissance. She had court painter Mantegna produce large allegorical
works based on classical mythological themes for her studiolo, basically her study where
she got on with the business of all that Renaissance humanism. She also sought other major artists
to paint for her studiolo, including Mantegna's brother-in-law Bellini. The lengthy negotiations
between Isabella and Bellini, sometimes direct and sometimes through intermediaries, have
been preserved — Isabella was a prolific correspondent with many people and her remarkable
letters have fortunately survived. In her negotiations with Bellini, she wanted another
large mythological painting, but Bellini was initially reluctant and didn't want to have
to work with such a detailed outline. The negotiations continued for nearly a decade,
with Isabella forwarding a downpayment, Bellini continually delaying working on the painting,
renegotiations of the subject, and even Isabella attempting to retrieve her money from the
artist and cancelling the commission. In the end, Bellini talked her into settling for
a smaller nativity scene, though she continued to suggest adding other figures to the painting
such as John the Baptist (which Bellini balked at), but finally Isabella was satisfied with
the outcome, which she hung in her bedroom. The painting is sadly now lost, though some
have argued that the composition of the painting may have influenced this Adoration of the
Shepherds, usually attributed to Giorgione. Another artist Isabella actively pursued was
Leonardo da Vinci. He did indeed draw a portrait of her, which seems to have been preliminary
work for a painted portrait (mentioned in their correspondence), but if the painting
was completed, it no longer survives. However, it has been suggested that the figure portrayed
in Leonardo's most famous painting may have in fact been Isabella. The most widely accepted
opinion among art historians is that the Mona Lisa depicts Lisa del Giocondo, the wife of
a wealthy Florentine silk merchant, but argument over the possible subjects continues.
Speaking of Leonardo da Vinci, in addition to being one of the most important artists
of the Italian Renaissance, he was also an ahead-of-his-time inventor and engineer, coming
up with plans for things like the helicopter, various war machines, and hydraulic systems.
Indeed at times he was taken on by patrons not only for his painting but also for his
architectural and engineering work. This was the case in 1502, when he was under the patronage
of the notorious Cesare Borgia. At the direction of his equally notorious father Pope Alexander
VI, Cesare went about Romagna in northern Italy conquering territory for himself, and
he brought Leonardo along to design fortifications and weapons. Also with Cesare was Niccolo
Machiavelli, a civic official in Florence, who had been sent to Cesare for diplomatic
purposes and to spy on him to learn of any territorial ambitions he might have in Florence.
One outcome of the contact between Leonardo and Machiavelli, both Florentines, was the
daring scheme to steal the River Arno. Yes, steal a river. You see the River Arno runs
through Florence and then on to their rival city Pisa, so the plan was to weaken Pisa
by diverting the river away from the city. The plan was unsuccessful, but the conjunction
of these two important Renaissance minds may not end there. Leonardo and Machiavelli seem
to have been influential on each other, with one scholar suggesting that Leonardo's scientific
thinking inspired Machiavelli to essentially create modern political science in his most
famous work The Prince (which by the way was read by Isabella d'Este). It's because
of this work that we use the term Machiavellian to describe underhanded political machinations.
You see Machiavelli, who was also inspired by Cesare Borgia's brutal tactics, took
a very pragmatic approach to wielding power, suggesting that a ruler shouldn't keep his
word if doing so would undermine his best interest, and that it's better for a ruler
to be feared than loved. Another claim that is sometimes made of Machiavelli is that he
saw patronage as an effective tool of political control as a kind of propaganda, and though
I don't think he's quite that explicit, he does often write about how a ruler should
seem to be good, seem to be generous, and so forth, making a distinction between seeming
and reality. Furthermore, he wrote that "a prince should also show his esteem to talent,
actively encouraging able men, and honouring those who excel in their profession." It
does indeed sound like an endorsement of carefully calculated patronage.
And when one thinks of Italian rulers who were good at using artistic patronage for
political ends, one figure who certainly comes to mind is Rome's first Emperor, Augustus,
who is, by the way, probably the source of the term "Prince" to mean ruler, as in
Machiavelli's book title, because he styled himself "princeps civitatis", "first
man of the state", and the term 'princeps', 'first-taker', from primus+capere, became
the title of the Emperor for the first three hundred years or so of the Roman empire. Augustus
came to power through a civil war, and presided over a major change in government, from republic
to empire, so he had a lot of PR work to do. He famously enlisted the support of a number
of poets, in particular Virgil and Horace, whose works praising him and supporting his
policies, subtly or explicitly, were crucial in shaping his public image. And he did this
via his friend Maecenas, whose patronage of these famous poets, memorialised in their
works, led to his name becoming an actual term for "patron" in several languages.
Some classical scholars, writing just before and after the second world war, went so far
as to call Maecenas Augustus's "Minister of Propaganda", comparing him to Goebbels,
who held that role in Hitler's government (taking us back to WWII and Montgomery & Harry's
Bar). But Maecenas didn't hold anything like an official role as 'minister of propaganda'.
Instead, he worked within the long-established Roman tradition of patronage, just focussing
on poets and writers. Roman patronage was a system in which wealthier and more influential
families helped out people from the lower rungs of Roman society with loans, dowries,
gifts, and legal representation, in return for political and military support. The more
powerful person was the patronus meaning "defender, protector, advocate" (presumably this led
J K Rowling to use the Latin word in her famous spell, "expecto patronum", literally "I
await my protector"), which is derived from pater "father", going back to the Proto-Indo-European
root *pəter-, which through the Germanic branch also gives us father. There's a complex
web of meanings here that all have to do with the underlying relationship. As we saw before,
a patron can not only refer to a wealthy benefactor, but also a customer of a bar or restaurant.
And the verb form patronize can mean to be a customer, but also to act condescendingly
towards someone, implying a power imbalance and pseudo parent-child relationship. The
importance of this 'father' role to the way the Roman upper classes saw themselves
is evident in a number of other terms derived from pater, like 'patrician' (noble),
patres conscripti (another name for the Senators who made up the governing body of the Republic)
and pater patriae, Father of the Fatherland, an honorific awarded for notable service to
the state, to people such as Cicero & Augustus. The governing class of Rome saw themselves
as 'fathers' to the rest of the citizens. And the patron, in return for his father-like
protection expected loyalty from his client. The word client comes from Latin cliens either
from the verb cluere "to listen, follow, obey", from the same Proto-Indo-European
root as English listen, or from clinare "to incline, bend" from the same root as English
lean; and ironically the word clientele, "group of regular clients of a business", now means
much the same thing as patrons, in the sense of people who regularly patronise (visit)
an establishment. But it wasn't just poor Romans who had patrons—even members of the
upper classes would exchange favours for support; however, they didn't like being called 'clients',
or to call someone their 'patron', because that made them seem too low status, so a whole
euphemistic language of 'friendship', amicitia, was developed. Amicitia is derived
from the Latin verb amare "to love", from which we get the word amorous, and ultimately
goes back to Proto-Indo-European *am- the base of various relationship words including
English aunt—like that Pekinese-wielding relative of Harry Pickering. It was that language
of 'friendship' that Virgil and Horace used to refer to their "greater friend"
Maecenas, and his 'greater friend' Augustus, who was by this time the principal benefactor
(another word related to Bellini's name, meaning literally "a doer of good" from
the Latin adverb bene "well", ultimately from that same PIE root) of the entire Roman
citizenry. And this connection between friendship and patronage brings us back to Harry's
Bar, a product of a friendship that turned one kind of patron into a different kind of
patron!
And so, now that we're back at the bar, it's time to make one of those famous Bellinis!
This is a very simple recipe: 1 part peach puree to 2 parts Italian prosecco. Pour the
prosecco carefully into the puree, stir gently. We froze some local Ontario peaches back in
the summer, so we're using yellow peaches, not white, since that's what's available
here, so the colour isn't perfectly Venetian, but it's still delicious!

They fled for their very Sparks!
A victory over unworthy opponents, especially
one that did not result in their demise,
is far from an achievement. Clearly, our improved state is
not enough to accomplish the deed for which I have come.
For that, I shall require a much greater instrument of destruction.

Foxy Friend Birthday Card for the Honey Bee Stamps Cheerful Love Blog Hop - Duration: 10:49.
hi everyone Ilda here from my love doing all things crafty and welcome back to
another process video this card is part of the honeybee stamps cheerful love
blog hop so make sure you check out the links below to get you started on the
blog hop as honeybees stamps will be giving away two $50 gift cards to their
store one from each day of the hop so to begin I'm stamping out an image from the
feeling foxy stamp set on some Strathmore Bristol paper and I'm also
creating a mask as I will be doing some ink blending and we'll need to protect
my image
now that all my images are masked off I'm going to use some flowers from the
country bloom stamp set to start creating my scene so here I'm creating
some lazy masks because I call it as I had already put the stamps away and I
didn't really want every stamp and fussy cut those images and I'm not too
concerned with the flowers as I will be coloring them in with pencils later now
that I've had it a little blue to the sky I'm going to take this stencil from
the outdoor scene builder set from honeybee stamps and I'm just going to do
some ink blending with my distress ink and I'm going to just use some pouncing
kind of technique here because the stencil catches on the little blending
tool so you want to go up and down and be really careful and gentle as you can
see I did smudge a little bit but no big deal not concerned
to color my images I'm using some prismacolor pencils today this is
actually my second time using colored pencils and I think I've fallen in love
with them I did not realize how fun and how easy it actually was to do
especially when you're using gamsol or mineral spirits to blend out your colors
I love the results and the softness that you get when you do blend these colors
and here I'm just showing you how I colored the fox's head in and then I'm
just gonna speed up the rest of the coloring video as it's pretty much the
same process over and over again and as you can see I'm just building up my
colors and blending them out layer by layer I'm super happy with how this card
turned out and so if I can achieve these results after the second time using
these prismacolor pencils I'd like to encourage all the newbie crafters and
card makers out there that are wanting to use pencils to give it a try you'll
be surprised on the results you will get and practice makes perfect so I'm
planning on using these a lot and hopefully perfecting this coloring so as
you can see I'm only using two colors to color the Foxes hair in I'm using the
Sienna Brown and Tuscan red I'm just adding color to the edges and leaving a
highlighted area and then using my blending stump to smooth the color all
out so really nothing too complicated here I will say I do have to order some
better blending stumps as the ones I'm using I just picked up at Michaels it's
pretty much all they had so I will have to find something new if you have any
suggestions please leave them in the comments below
I do need a better set of blending some so let me know what you guys use if
you'd like to see results from my first try creating with these colored pencils
check out the blog as the first card I created for this blog hop is an
interactive shaker card where I use penny the Platypus stamp set from the
new release to create a graduation card
because I don't have too many blending stumps I use the same stump for a few of
the colors so I use that emery board that I have to decide to shave off the
color of the end of the stump before I carry on with the next color I hope you
guys are enjoying this coloring process as much as I enjoyed coloring it but if
you do not want to watch the coloring part of the card you can go ahead and
skip to the seven minute mark of the video where I will carry on with the
next part of this card
you
I began blending out the ground with the same blending stump and realized it was
gonna take me a while so I remembered that I had this fantastic coloring tool
and it has a brush point that absorbs a lot of the mineral spirits and it's
almost like it's got a foam and to it and because it wasn't a detailed area it
was super easy and quick to do
to add some detail and darken some areas of the card I'm using a black jelly
roller pen to darken in the fox's nose and the eyes and because I'm going to
make this Fox a female I added some eyelashes and now I'm just adding some
dot details to the flowers and to whiten some of the areas and
highlight them I'm just using my white jelly roller pen and doing the exact
same thing that I did with the black one instead this time I'm adding highlights
to areas of the fox's hair and a few places where I think there would be a
highlight from the Sun now sometimes I get a smooth white roll from the pen and
other times it feels like it's dried out or maybe it's the wax that doesn't like
the gel that comes out of the pen I'm not quite sure but I just shake it about
and use my Kathy Racoosin trick and blend the tip of the pen on the top of my hand
until it starts to flow nicely and then bring it again to the paper so here
again I'm using the pen to add some highlights to the tree trunks and as
you'll see later I do go and soften these lines with my white blender pencil
since this is a birthday card I'm using the happy birthday sentiment from the
foxy sentiment stamp set and I'm using some white pigment ink and embossing it
with some white embossing powder so at this point I wasn't sure if I had made a
mistake I thought maybe I should have used a black ink and black embossing
powder rather than the white but then when I looked at it once it was glued
onto that back panel I was happy with the decision I made as the sentiment
didn't take away from the Fox which was what I wanted to highlight on the card
so right now I'm adding the sentiments to the inside of my card and because I
only want the mind not the tube I'm just lining it up to the edge of the ink pad
and stamping out the my
and to finish off my card today I'm just gonna finish it off by adding some
glossy accents to some of the areas on the card and today I'm using a bottle
from Jane Davenport that I found at Michaels and I filled it with my glossy
glossy accents hopefully this bottle won't plug up as bad as my previous
bottles I'm giving it a try and hopefully it works out for me and
finally I'm adding a little wink of Stella to finish off this card I hope
