    TIP: reduce one step by SCORING first (if cutting first, it requires scoring two times). This will be a great intro series for new crafters!

    • @brandyscards
      @brandyscards  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Amy for your kind note and for your feedback. I really appreciate it. Oh, yes you should absolutely make a template. Or how about I send you mine. I made a few extras will mail it to you tomorrow. Feel better!! Hugs, Brandy

    This was just the video I was looking for when I started stamping! I just needed the basics! Unfortunately for me I was watching women in the UK and Im in the US and it took quite awhile to figure out why my measurements were off! 😁 Im excited about this series!

  • @sandranorman4270
    @sandranorman4270 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Instead of scoring and ending up eith edges a tiny bit off.. With the arm closed and the cutterbar raised you can bump your card against the bottom and the arm then fold top down the press for the crease and the edges come out perfectly matched

    Hi there. I just subscribed to your channel. I'm not a newbie card maker, but your explanation on how to cut card bases by dividing in half made so much sense. Duh, I don't know why I struggled with this before. And I made my own template for the layering so I can quickly see how to cut my layers, including using a 1/2 or more border if I want. Thanks for the tips. I'm sure I'll learn more as you work through this series.

    Glad i found you. Subscribing, too. Why do my cardstock when I cut them, they don’t come out smooth? It’s fuzzy. I am using Fiskar paper cutter. My white cardstock is 110 lb/300 gsm. Is it my paper cutter or my cardstock being thick?
    Your paper cutter has a feature to get a nice fold without creating a crease on the card? Pls advise. I am tuning in. Thanks

  • @ancientangel08
    @ancientangel08 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much for this video! I’m new to making cards and have gotten so frustrated with making the base. My other problem is the paper cutter and knowing how to use it. No one has a video on how to use it. When I look at it, it has two markings for one inch. One on either side of the blade. Why is that?

  • @reneebutler8984

      @brandyscards  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can stamp on the inside corner or add a strip of cardstock to the side or bottom. Check out some of my other videos and you'll get some ideas. PLUS, check back frequently for new card ideas where I often do show the inside of the cards.
