Tonic Studios Tim Holtzミディアムガラスマット60.3 x 36.2 cm -

Serve per tantissime tecniche ! Utile davvero

Wow, and wow again... what a fabulous product. I don't normally 'do' reviews, but I have to share my love with this Tim Holtz glass media mat. Yes, it's quite pricey but you get what you pay for in superiority and quality. It is heavy but the eight small non-slip 'feet' keep it stable and stops any movement on my work table and makes it easy to pick up. In my opinion, this is something everyone needs in their craft room. I have been meaning to get one for ages, then decided to bite the bullet and buy one, and guess what, I am so very glad I did. I tested it by blending Distress Inks onto card from it, which in my opinion, far better than my other media mats. I have used alcohol markers and heat embossed on it. I let mediums dry on it and then cleaned it to see how easy that would be - no problems! All in all, I tried to use every kind of product with it that I normally would as a crafter, and was not disappointed. Since buying this mat, I have now ordered the media tool set (unmarked ruler) as I feel it would be great for lining up words on my project as I am hopeless at keeping things straight!! However, the measuring grid marked in inches and cms along the edges and the 1inch squares are fantastic for helping to ensure level positioning. The removal silicone non-stick white mat gives options when your water colouring and inking, however, keep in mind that alcohol ink will stain it. All in all, this is a 'must have' tool and is the best glass mat I have ever bought, I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to work with mediums in one place. It's FABULOUS!

It took me a long time to decide if I needed this or not, and I watched several videos about how to use it and product reviews. I already have self-healing cutting mats of different sizes, heat protection surfaces/teflon crafting mats, ink blending mats, and other 'surfaces', but none seem to do 'everything' and it can get confusing swapping surfaces depending on the project one is doing, especially if it needed multiple surfaces for mixed media. The Glass Media mat is exactly what I needed - and even has a swatching and blending area, where the paints/pigments/inks seem to 'light' up.... the add-on included silicon mat is also brilliant (don't use alcohol inks on that one though as it will stain, but you can use the inks anywhere else on the mat).... Ink blending is fantastic .... and its very easy to clean the measuring marks make it so easy to line things up (including centering points, and its a great size - this larger version is not very portable of course, but excellent as a 'work station', and it takes glues, other mediums, paints, inks, is heat resistant, you can cut on it ..... and more Finally I have a work station, and its true, products do 'creep in' making one's work space smaller, but this does seem to help, especially with the slightly raised surface, keeping a good size area to work on. (there is a left-handed version now too by the way). Next on the list is to get the more portable glass media mat so I can work in smaller areas. I'm still experimenting but so far I have nothing negative to say - I will update this review if any issues do arise. I highly recommend the Tim Holtz Glass Media Mat, and it was received very well packaged - it is a quality product and one of my favourite tools!

J’ai choisi ce tapis de découpe pour sa grande taille mais aussi car je connais bien cette marque qui est de très bonne qualité. Il y a des graduations en centimètres et en inch. Quand on coupe sur la plaque de verre trempé avec le cutter, ça ne raie pas la plaque, ça ne laisse aucune trace. Je n’avais plus envie d’utiliser mon tapis de découpe cicatrisant, qu’il fallait chauffer pour faire partir les traces de cutter (et encore ça ne partait pas toujours entièrement). Cette plaque m’est bien utile pour faire mes fonds de carte avec des pads d’encre. Je n’ai plus besoin de mettre de feuille en dessous pour protéger mon plan de travail. Il suffit ensuite que je passe un coup d’eau savonneuse (ou produit à vitre, lingette, etc) et tout part du premier coup même avec des encres qui tâchent. Pareil avec des encres à alcool, ça part très facilement. Je m’en sers aussi quand j’encolle mes projets de scrapbooking. La colle part également super bien. Je n’ai pas encore testé avec de la colle chaude mais je pense que ça devrait se décoller de la plaque très facilement. Je recommande cet article, j’aurai du l’acheter bien plus tôt. Il était bien protégé lors de l’envoi. En plus d’être dans son carton d’emballage d’origine, il était dans un suremballage en carton (pour le protéger de la casse) + dans le carton d’expédition.

very nice but do not use a knife on it, in the video they claim it can handle a knife but it can't
