Anyone who enjoys my videos and would like to buy me a coffee, here is a link thanks so much . www.buymeacoffee.com/christinesZ - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Thank you so much for sharing this. I know it was a while ago, but these tips and creative ideas that you have are phenomenal and thank you for sharing. Absolutely beautiful and your grandmother would be proud of what you’re doing.
Thank you so much for this wonderful comment, I hope you'll watch many more of my older videos and enjoy them too!😊😊😊
Absolutely stunning. Those 2 colours and the embossing would work so well with your humming bird dies, ❤
Thanks so much 😊😊😊
That Butterfly looks amazing …. I new you could do something with them xx
Stunning Sylvie xx
Thanks Sylvie, this just kind of happened when I opened up the packet! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
What a beautiful butterflie thank you. ❤Can you tell me what you call the die that did the outline. 😊
@@Tracyleslie1 I'm not sure what you mean, the outline die was part of the set which I think has been discontinued.
What a beautiful technique. I love the colors you used on the butterfly and the stars and embossing powder just take it over the top. Thanks for showing how this is done.
My pleasure🥰🥰🥰
Luscious powders here I come! Held off up till now but I find I want more colours especially the blues. Spectacular card. So elegant.
Brilliant, don't forget your 20% discount code at IndigoBlu CHRISTH-cam
Hi. Those butterflies really do look like enamel brooches and they are stunning, a fabulous addition to any card or craft project. My Grandma always wore a tabard style pinafore and would whip it off quickly as she walked up hallway whenever she had to answer the door. Thank you for sharing your amazing skills and your superb card. I hope you're husband is getting better and that you have a lovely weekend.😊
Lots of lovely memories! 😊😊😊😍🤣😍
When I saw the butterfly on your desk, it reminded me of grandmother's who wore enamel brooches too, so I was happy to hear of your memories. Just stunning is the Luscious powders, gold mirror card, stars and UTEE are together! Made for a stunning card as well. Hugs, Brenda
Butterfly brooches must have been de rigueur in our grannies' day! Thanks Brenda💙💙💙🦋🦋🦋
My grandparents were very old school children should be seen but not heard but I got down on the floor and played with all five of mine and hope they will remember me fondly. I forget to put on the apron until I spill something on myself. Gorgeous card as always and you make my coffee taste better when you have a new video. Thank you
You say the loveliest things Patricia!😊
So very pretty! I used a paint pen and labeled my versamark pad tops “dirty,” and “clean.” When I use the clean one mostly up, I put the top labeled “dirty” on it and take my “clean” top and put on the new pad. Then I throw out the old dirty pad and extra top and I’m set for another 9 months or so. I thought I was the only one who continued to use a dirty pad!
Like minds😁
Beautiful butterflies so realistic looking, in fact I did think one was a broach the colours are stunning and love your ideas in putting it together. A lovely gift from your friend, my grandmother and mother wore the sleeveless over dresses you described, I can still picture them now. Thank you and take care.
Fond memories! 😊😊😊
I always find your videos so inspiring, Christine. Thank you for sharing so many wonderful ideas.
Thank you, it's my pleasure! 🥰🥰🥰
Your butterflies are stunning and your grandma would be so proud❤
Do you know I think she would! Thank you so much😊😊😊🦋
Gorgeous!!!
My great Grandma always wore an apron like you described as well! Grandmas are truly the best!! I sure miss mine!!! ❤❤
So true! 😍😍😍
That butterfly is so pretty, and the products you used to color it are just fab. When I was a little girl I gave my mom a butterfly brooch for mothers day. It was a massive green one, bestudded with rhinestones. I'm sure to me it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.😂 She did wear it to church that mother's day..not sure about any other day. ;) When my mom passed in 2017 there in her belongings was the massive butterfly brooch. ha Good memories.
Wonderful memories! 🥰🥰🥰
What a beautiful butterfly. You could easily fix a pin to the back of it and use it as a brooch. I love what you did with it. It’s stunning. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent. - Dawn 🌅
Oh Dawn you always say such lovely things, thank you 🦋💙🦋
That is the most beautiful butterfly! When I emboss die cuts like the butterfly, I make a handle out of thicker card stock and tape it to the back. Keeps your fingers from getting burned.
It did cross my mind to do that that this time, it’s the heating from underneath which is trickier, but the butterfly was large enough to be able to do it half at a time. Great suggestion though 🥰
Simply beautiful ! I love luscious powders ! They are so pretty thank you once again Christine !
I hope Phil is firmly on the road to recovery now !
Thanks so much Fiona, it's a slow old process for Phil but he feels fine in himself but his leg is taking its time getting back to normal.
I bet she's kicking herself, now that she's seen how wonderfully pretty you made those butterflies from her dies 😊❤
I’m sure she has plenty of other wonderful things to play with! 🥰🥰🥰
Gorgeous butterfly, Christine! Love the iridescence of the colors and enjoyed the memories of your grandmother. Mine always had an apron,as did my mom when I was growing up.
Fond memories huh 🥰🥰🥰
Such beautiful butterflies, those colours are amazing, so pretty. Thanks Christine x
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks so much 😊
Awesome butterfly! Thank you for sharing your memories and knowledge!
You are so welcome
Beautiful, great techniques…. Thanks so much for sharing! Have a great day!
Many thanks 💙🦋💙
Absolutely gorgeous from one Gramma to another!
🥰🥰🥰
Made me think of my grandmother such fond memories. What a beautiful idea the butterfly is stunning ❤
Thanks Helen 💙🦋💙
Your Grandma obviously had very good taste. I think you did her proud with your make today Christine. I have the Nuvo glitter paste and now need the lucious powders. x
Luscious powders are amazing… don’t forget the discount code!👍
Gorgeous butterflies and card. I have a few of my grandmothers brooches and two of them are enameled butterflies'. I hope Phil continues to improve. Thanks for the wonderful inspiration.
Thanks Debbie, enamelled butterflies must have been an age thing! 😊
Love everything you do….look forward to watching you every day!♥️♥️♥️
Sorry I don't always manage to do a video every day sadly! 😍
Beautiful butterfly! I love using UTEE, especially when I sprinkle a dusting of Perfect Pearls or PearlEx powders over the molten UTEE. While the UTEE is still "liquidy" I tilt the piece and let the powders flow with the UTEE. It looks almost like the Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis.
Sounds wonderful 💙
I put my items in a disposable pie tin lined with aluminum foil to heat emboss. Works great.
Great!
Oh, I love this effect! It would probably look amazing on heat resistant acetate, like real seethru butterfly wings. Your tips are great! Thank you! 😇💖🙏🙌
Thanks so much😊😊😊
So appreciate your instructions Christine.
It’s my pleasure🦋💙🦋
Another gorgeous card, Christine! Love this technique! Thank YOU so much! From Cheryl in AZ.
As ever🦋🦋🦋
Grandmas are the best
👍👍👍
Your videos are so encouraging..I did clear embossing over pressed flowers…worked quite well…did not know you could get thicker powder…thanks
Wonderful! That sounds like a great idea!
WOW!!! So beautiful!! Blue is my favorite color!!💙💙💙
Me too! 💙💙💙
Lovely...what a clever lady you are. So pleased I have come across your wonderful work !
I'm delighted that you found me too! I hope you'll subscribe and enjoy lots more of my videos! 😊❤️❤️❤️
@@Chrissieannie I have subscribed and I certainly will follow your videos ! Thanks again.
Welcome!❤️
I have to say I think this is my best video yet, I absolutely love 5is butterfly and I would be putting a pin on the back and only wearing it on special occasions. It is gorgeous. I don’t have all the products You have but I sure am going to try to come up with something. Thank You so much for sharing. I throughly enjoyed my coffee this morning watching this video. 💗
It was fun to do Barb 🦋💙🦋
Just love the colours 💙💙💙
Me too💙💚💙
A beautiful butterfly thank you.
Thank you Kitty 🦋💙🦋
So beautiful as always. My grandma wore the same apron. ❤
Fond memories! ♥️♥️♥️
Such a lovely creation!!!
Thanks Barbara 💙🦋💙
Those butterflies are simply só gorgious! Thx 4 sharing! BTW especially with the ultea high powder, you can add the next layer right after you put on the first layer, it will stick fabuously without the versafine, like you do with the stars, and saves so much time and effort, works like a charm, also with regular powder if you are fast.
Thanks this may be helpful to those who haven’t tried this method!
Just beautiful!
Thanks Kara 💙🦋💙
When I have something small I need to use a heat gun on I use a popsicle stick with temporary tape wrapped around one end which I then stick to the back of the item. Gives me a handle to move the item but keeps my fingers away from the heat.😊
Great idea!
That's a fab idea!
How beautiful and what a great idea!
Thanks so much🦋🦋🦋

How beautiful. TY
Thanks so much 🦋🦋🦋
Just stunning! Need to get my ultra thick EP out and play :-) Haven't used it in ages.
It took me quite a while to find mine! 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for sharing your lovely memories of your Grandmother. How wonderful that she inspired you to create a glorious butterfly which would also be gorgeous on top of a parcel for someone special. I'm glad I did not purge my UTEE last time I purged my crafting supplies. 🦋🦋
Thanks Helen, I think my reminiscing made a lot of people think of their own grandmothers.🥰🥰🥰
Love your card
Thanks Sue💙🦋💙
FABULOUS enamel butterfly!!! Your creative instincts are wonderful, and your videos are so enjoyable. Thank you so much! 💕
What lovely things to say, thank you 🦋🦋🦋
Those Luscious powders, tiny stars, UTEE and gold mirror cardstock capture the essence of a butterfly. So beautiful! And your choice of the mixed font sentiment perfectly completes the design!
Thanks so much Karen 🦋🦋🦋
Your Grandmother's apron must have been a global trend! Gorgeous butterfly.
🤣🤣🤣 wonderful!
Gorgeous ❤❤❤I love this tutorial!!!
Thanks Linda 🦋🦋🦋
Fabulous, did you not inherit the brooch from grandma? Loved my grandmother, called her GeeGee. She loved me more than anyone ever has, grandmothers are the best!
Do you know, I don’t know what happened to her brooch.. one of life’s mysteries! 🤔
Absolutely gorgeous! Love it.
Thanks Karen🦋🦋🦋
So beautiful, and I loved hearing about your grandma and your special history with the stamp!
Thank you!🦋🦋🦋
Fab-u-lous!❤❤❤
Thanks Sue 💙🦋💙
Beautiful ❤️
🦋🦋🦋
So beautiful ! I made some similar butterflies once with heavy cardstock and turned them into pins for Mother's Day cards. Have you seen Tim Holtz media mat? It is non glare, heat resistant - I have seen a few makers use it. Seems like there is always some new must have toy :) Thank you for sharing. Your videos are always a pleasant start to my day!
There’s always something isn’t there!!!
So pretty x
🦋🦋🦋
Thank you for sharing your magical creative process… I love peeking over your shoulder
That's great thanks Barb😊😊😊
UTEE seems to have fallen out of favor recently but I love using it for things like this. I tend to do small flowers. I think it makes them come out so lovely. The butterflies turned out so stunning. Grandmas are truly a gift. Mine had an enameled jewelry set (earrings, necklace, bracelet) of hearts with a scene of Lake Tahoe that I still possess. Unfortunately, the earrings aren't for pierced ears and they hurt my ears or I'd wear them. It seems that with a little build up those butterflies of yours could be made into pins. BTW - I love Nuvo confettis and I also wait for bundles usually.
Thanks buying bundles is a good way to buy products you want to try out! 🦋🦋🦋
I add magnets to the backs of elements like butterflies. I then attach them to my card fronts with another magnet - either hidden under the card front or attached to an acetate disk so they can spin on a channel. They can then be detached and used as a magnet for the fridge or if I create a spinner card, the acetate disk can also be removed and they act as a kind of brooch. It's not very strong but could certainly allow them to be attached to a sheer curtain for example. I can point you to a blog posting of mine which has a picture tutorial if you're interested!
Those butterflies would be a beautiful brooch. I don’t really remember my grandma who died when I was five years old, just remember my grandpa’s who lived to nearly 80. And as my girls grew up in Canada, they don’t remember their grandparents, so I love spending time with my grandchildren so that they do have memories of theirs. Jenny ❤😊
Enjoy your grandchildren! 😊😊😊
What is the brand name if these butterfly dies, or where can you buy them?? Thank you. They are beautiful.
Don’t you love making things that you remind you of your grandmothers?
😍😍😍
I love your creativity. I've been making stencils and love it. For your star stencil, was that a single file you used in your Silhouette or did you take a star image and then played with different sizes and distributed them?
I think it was a single file! 😊😍🥰
I have to disagree with you about using clothes pegs,I have never had any damage done to my cards whilst using a peg. I think we all prefer our different things to use.🌺
It's not damage to the card, it's smudging of embossing that I don't like, but if you can make it work for you, that's wonderful.
😍😍😍WAU EIN TRAUM SO SCHÖN SIND IHRE SCHMETTERLINGE😍😍😍😍
Darf ich fragen wie die Stanze heisst damit ich diese Wunderschöne Schmeterlinge kaufen kann🤩😍🥰
Eine frage was war das für Embossing Pulver das der glanz so WUNDERSCHÖN WURDE!?
Ich freu mich auf Ihre Antwort sobald Sie Zeit finden
VIELEN LIEBEN DANK
Ich wünsche Ihnen von HERZEN❤einen WUNDESCHÖNEN SONNTAG mit viel Sonne im HERZEN❤
Mit Lieben Grüssen Ramona aus der Schweiz
I think the dies are no longer available as my friend who gave them to me had had them for quite some time. The embossing powder was UTEE Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel.
😘VIELEN LIEBEN DANK ❤für Deine Antwort
Schade gibt es die Schmetterlinge nicht mehr aber ich Freu mich haben Sie welche Geschenkt bekommen🥰ein sehr schönes Geschenk
Ich wünsche Dir und Deiner Familie eine Tolle schöne Woche mit viel Sonne im Herzen❤ Mit Lieben Grüssen Ramona aus der Schweiz🥰😘🐾🐾
@@Chrissieannie Schönen Guten Tag♥ ICH BIN SOOOOO HAPPY ich habe noch 1 Ort gefunden wo Sie verkauft wurden, Ich habe das letzte Exemplar erwischt von diesen WUNDERSCHÖNEN SCHMETTERLINGEN ♥und heute kamen Sie bei mir an♥♥♥MEGA HAPPY♥♥♥Wünsch Ihnen von HERZEN♥ein Tolles schönes Wochenende mit viel Sonne im HERZEN♥Mit Lieben Grüssen Ramona♥
Look like opals
You’ve reminded me to wear my opal pendant that I bought on a trip to Oz ! Thanks so much
Christine - I have glimmer paste but it has dried up. Is there a solution to stopping this ? I just love glimmer paste and half the bottle is now too hard to use.
I'm sorry I don't know the answer to that. Have you tried an online search for an answer?🤔
@@Chrissieannie One lady added water which did not work for me.
@@colleengreen9164 I think some products simply can't be reconstituted once they have dried out. This may be one of them, you would need to know the composition of the paste to know what to add to try to reconstitute it.
@@Chrissieannie ok many thanks !
