    I’m easing my way into the paper crafting world and found myself overwhelmed with all the stamps, ink, brushes that comes along with this hobby. After watching this video I realized I have everything. Thank you for the help!

    I’ve watched TONS of card making videos, and yours is definitely a top ten. Readily accessible supplies, great examples, especially showing how much difference a little foam tape can make!

    Thank you very much for this video. You are an excellent teacher, especially for beginners like myself. Your attention to detail is very good, especially for beginners. I also like how you explain co-ordinating papers and putting light, dark and textured papers together. Your voice is lovely to listen to and you pace everything very well, which makes it easy to understand. The only thought I have, is, buying materials from USA/CANADA (I live in the UK) carries hefty postage, which sometimes outweighs the cost of the materials, so I am unable to buy them. Thank you again. Jo x

    This is such a good demonstration. Thank you! The mounting tape makes a huge difference. I’m happy to see how accessible these items are too. I want to make beautiful cards, but I’m not ready to spend hundreds on supplies. This is just right and very exciting to me. Thank you so much for the information.

    Omg, thank you! I’ve been watching sooooo many videos on how I can start making cards but none of the videos I found show the card base part, also the putting together part too. Now I can make my mother and MIL Mother’s Day cards finally…..thank you, this is awesome!

    Thank you so much for this tutorial! I'm very new to cardmaking but obsessed with paper lol I was so confused when it came to ink pads, blending, stamps etc I still am not sure lol but at least I know how to get started before I decide if I want to jump into all that❤

  • @2CraftySeniors
    @2CraftySeniors 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you so very much. I'm a beginner in cardmaking and also have a few 'challenges', like shaky hands, to contend with. I really appreciate seeing the cheaper tools and supplies because I have a very limited budget when it comes to crafting. I was pleasantly surprised to see the foam tape from Dollar Tree. I was planning on buying a very large roll of foam tape that wasn't pre-cut, but this looks easier for me to handle and it actually works out cheaper than the large roll.

    Hello! I did sub, this is my first time viewing your video! I’ve been doing cards for two years now! I’m 76 years old and enjoy making cards!! It can be costly but since I don’t drive anymore, It just means I can now make a card and not have to go to the store! I appreciate your video and anyone can always use a little more help!! Right. Thank you for sharing!

    This is a good demonstration. What would help tremendously is to know the measurements of ALL the papers that are used to build the layers.

  • @Lizardlafemme
    @Lizardlafemme ปีที่แล้ว

    When I started everyone said get punches. Then it was dies
    Then it was infinity dies. Then stamps dies and expensive markers and pencils. I've learned the hard way that a score board, infinity dies round, square and rectangles. I love embossing folders because they are cheap and versatile. Stamps are great but be very picky. Anyway I appreciate that you are teaching that following every trend is super expensive and I have boxes of things I never use.

    This paper pad is beautiful. I use the beacon 3 in 1 glue all the time. Somehow I felt like the middle layer was too small for the large base layer, it was almost the same size as the top layer. Very pretty though

    I love that you did this with simple, readily available supplies, and I love that you used the paper pad I just purchased! 🥰
    I do have a question though, when the card front is layered and built up it seems to make the card back piece thin/flimsy by comparison. Can we add a layer inside or would that not look right? Thanks so much, subscribing! 🥰

    • @strawberrycream39Jen
      @strawberrycream39Jen  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Trish! Yes you can absolutely add more to the inside. Just keep in mind that you may need another stamp if it’s over an ounce. I’m not great at decorating the inside of cards but I love when other people do it! TFW xo Jen
