    Great tutorial Betsy!!! Cannot wait to try it…Wish you could let me know the name of the glue you used (in the black bottle). I am still using a glue stick and would really love to change to the kind you used as it looks so easy! Thanks again for the tutorial!!

    Great technique video! One question -where do you get your vintage tissue paper? It reminds me of the tissue paper used in old sewing patterns.

    Great tutorial and video! I definitely want to try this but also was wondering where I can find the vintage tissue paper. It reminds me of old patterns.

    Thank you for a very useful technique. I have an old sewing box full of patterns. I never thought to use these as vintage or craft tissue. Really enjoyed the video.

    Made my card today and absolutely love the look of the tissue paper! I tried several types of glue before settling on good ol’ Mod Podge…I know, old school. But it seems to be thin enough to spread well over the surface and absorbs so that your tissue becomes a bit more translucent than when I used my usual generic liquid glue. I plan on using this technique often!

    How simply divine. I enjoy muted colors so much and this is just a great way to use up some of my bold prints that I was not so sure how to use. Thanks for sharing.
