Thank you so much for this video! I finally have some inkling of how to tackle the many Dylusions journals I am working in!! I never knew what pouring medium was for; now I do. I will be getting some soon.
Love your work, CeeCee. Wish I could be. Fly on your wall, watching you...!!
Hugs, Jen

Another way to look down would be to rent a room in one of "those" motels and use the mirror on the ceiling. or maybe just use a mirror LOL. I've never heard of pouring medium and LOVE how shiny it transforms the cover. Can't wait to try this and hope it feels as smooth as it looks.

Awesome!! Would so love to be able to touch this journal.... gorgeous!

A lot of great ideas. Have a question: Is there any stickiness associated with the pouring gel - in general or in high humidity? And if so, how do you counteract it. Thanks again. Great video.

You are so "watchable"; I enjoy your videos very much and this one is fantastic. I use these journals, too, and will try this pouring medium technique on the next cover.
Thank you!
