What fun, colorful stuff!!! Suggestion I learned from another YTV crafter: In order to avoid the possibility of contaminating the paste with the naturally occurring oils on my fingers, I use a spatula to put some paste on the craft mat then dip my fingers into that puddle rather than into the jar or the lid. Weird stuff can grow over the life of the paste just from the oil and skin particles from our fingers.

I usually go the other extreme on new products. When I got my first lunar pastes, I looked up a number of YouTube videos on "how to use" -- many by Simon Hurley. The problem is, I see so much good stuff, and so many options, that even though I purchased them months ago, I haven't opened the 1st jar. I keep watching posts & demos to make sure I get it right -- and never put the info to use. Thank you for presenting a "just do it" option. I appreciate your being relateable.

I love your bloopers and appreciate that you don't get rid of them when you edit, because we actually learn from them ♡ thank you Cathy Z

[jeaninegordon]

I love you ability to show us not everything is perfect the first time.

[barbarahill]

It seems so simple to say, you got to be gentle on yourself, especially when trying something new. I’m proud of you! I know you make cards that are clean and simple, so messy is probably not in your comfort zone. It’s just paper! We just need to be kind to ourselves as well as others. Thanks for being ‘real’ with us!

[tinamiller]

You give the rest of us comfort in accepting mistakes.

[Tipsey_McStagger]

I love to see you learning and teaching us along the way! It's nice to know I'm not the only one who messes up and there is beauty in imperfection. Thank you 😊

[blevinsjean]

oh, Cathy, You've done it again. I always love your videos. I have determined we have the same sense of humor so I laugh but not at you. I am a ninety-one year old lady. I am about ready to try my lunar paste but l've told my great grandchildren there is a cache of crafts waiting for them. They seem to love it.

[annaromero]

I love how you show the things that don’t work, you make me feel like I don’t have to be perfect all the time. I love your work. 🥰💕

[AlysonGold]

I love this video. It's like watching myself craft, only I use more bad words 🤣I swear I hear you say "aaaand" while I'm creating (and I whisper to myself a lot more than I care to admit). Making the berries with two different mediums really added a fun aspect. Thanks for showing us that YT creators aren't perfect, especially the first time they use a product.

[barbarafender]

Beautiful cards! I think I have been going too thick with my Lunar paste. You have inspired me to try it again.

[Taitcreates]

What a great idea, just adding a bit of the lunar paste here and there, fab cards Cathy

[merrystamper]

This was a wonderful reminder that learning something new takes practice, and I love how you gave yourself grace and persevered. Thanks Cathy.

[judibradshaw]

Awesome cards! I had the same reaction the first time but it has fabulous results! That learning curve thing!!!😂

[sarahseid]

Mistakes in the teaching and counseling world are referred to teachable moments. ❤

[marysharvey]

Cathy, you have me laughing so hard I’m crying! You are fabulous!

[kimballmiller]

So glad I found this video. I'm fairly new to cardmaking and recently tried Lunar Paste. To say I wasn't pleased with the results would be an understatement, but you've inspired me to try again. Thank you!

[ingelagoransson]

😂🤩Thank you girl for giving me a good laugh! I don´t like getting my finger tips too messy so I felt your hesitation there ... 😊 The cards are beautiful. 😊

[kareneaton]

Love these pastes, your holly card is spectacular

[jerryclark]

Thanks for sharing...so glad I am not the only one that has goofs!
