Wow, I really don’t think you realize just how talented you are. You make the most amazing cards I’ve ever seen.
Oh wow Debbie, that’s a really kind comment and just thank you so much! I really do appreciate it. 🤗💕💕
I totally agree with all the wonderful comments Karen, it is true I don’t believe you realize how creative you are.
Thank you for sharing your creativity with us. I have lots of patterned paper and now lots of great ideas to try.
Super big thanks Stella for that very kind comment! I hope you have loads of fun with your patterned paper! 😄❤️❤️
First time visiting after your video popped up in my feed. Watched because one of my 2024 resolutions is to become comfortable using printed papers on my cards. I love it, purchase it, stash it, but rarely use it… Thank you for providing so many great ideas, and for sharing your beautiful examples.
Thank you so much Susan! I know exactly what you mean about not using it - I have to force myself to cut into it sometimes and I find myself hoarding all the teeniest, tiniest scraps! 😂💕💕
January 2024. I've got beautiful papers. Then, I have books rescued from the library dumpster because of extensive damage. Thanks for your ideas. Tina,
Al's wife
@alanbirkner1958 you’re very welcome Tina and good luck with all your papers! 💕💕
Love it! That envelope insert was a nice finale. 😊
Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked the envelope inserts too. 😄❤️❤️
I usually don’t comment, but I’m pausing the video to tell you I love your work! You gave me some ideas and I’m excited to get in my craft room after while!
Thank you so much Brenda! I’m really happy that I may have given you a little inspiration and I hope you have lots of fun! 💕💕

I learnt a lot with your beautiful tutorial. Looking forward to more. Thankyou ❤️
Thank you so much Michelle! I’m so glad you found that video helpful! ❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing your craft and the papers are gorgeous. What I do with my extras or things I decided I'm not going to use anymore after I clean my studio is I posted on Marketplace. But I only post it for teachers and they do have to verify they are working teachers. This has worked out GREAT!!! Especially special needs teachers.
Thank you for that great idea Mary! I’ll keep that in mind for thee next time I destash which should be soon. 😄💕💕
Your artwork is just beautiful. ❤ Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so very much Kate! I appreciate your kind comment! 💕💕
LOVE the grout technique!
That’s a really fun technique Niki! I love the little bling it gives the card. 😄❤️
Each card was just so beautiful! You created cards that are more unique than any I've seen online or in the store! This really stretches the creative envelope.
Thank you so very much Theresa! That’s a lovely comment for you to leave! 💕💕
Gorgeous!!! I have so much paper but have never learned card making. Thank you for the inspiration!
You are so very welcome Marge! I’m glad I could give you a little inspiration. 💕💕
I use this type of paper for flowers. I also use it for origami cranes. Love the paper you have here.
That’s a great idea to use it for origami cranes! I’ve also used it for flowers and I love the look it gives them. 😄💕
I've not crafted for a few years as had lots going on and moved a couple of times. Been trying to get my craft cupboard organised and get back into crafting. Found lots of patterned paper that i never know how fo use, exempt as you say the softer, less contrasting papers or polka dots or simple patterns so searched for ideas and found your video. Love your ideas! Especially like the strips and gilding flakes abd that twisted fan one, but lots of great ideas. Thank you
Thank you so much Tracey! That little bit of gold between the strips really adds a lot, so I hope you have lots of fun with that technique! 😊💕💕
WOW! All of us crafters have that closet or drawers filled to the brim with patterned paper. Loved all of your ideas for using up that part of my stash. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and ideas!
Thank you so much Karen! It’s amazing how all those crafty supplies multiply on us! 😂💕💕
I’ve just come across your channel and wanted to tell you how helpful all your ideas are! WOW, I wish I could remember all these amazing ideas and techniques! Thank you for sharing your talents!!
Thank you so much Connie! I’m really happy that you may have found some inspiration there! 💕💕
An absolute wealth of suggestions! Thank you!!
Thank you so very much Donna! I’m glad you have found it helpful. 💕💕
Wow, I love all the different and diverse variety of cards you have made, Karen. They are all so gorgeous! 😊
Thank you so much Margaret! That’s really kind of you! 💕💕
Thank you for making this. Beautiful cards. I've just started this hobby and am addicted
Thank you so very much! It’s a really fun hobby and such a great, sharing community. 😊💕💕
These are some amazing cards, thanks so much for the techniques. Really love your style and designs.
Thank you so very much! That’s really kind of you! ❤️❤️
Hi Karen, what a wonderful ideas. Just beautiful. Looking forward to start. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much Hetty! I hope there’s a little inspiration in there. 😄💕
Thank you for the beautiful cards. I struggle with making them. You are very inspirational and I just subscribed. Great work.😊
Thank you so much Chiria, both for your kind comment and for subscribing! I think we have all struggled with making cards, but the good news, is that we all get better at it with practice! 😄💕💕
Great job!!! I've got stacks of extra paper that I wasn't sure what to do with. You showed a wonderful variety of ideas. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much Patty! I hope you have lots of fun with all your paper stash! 😄💕💕
Your channel just happen to appear on my page and I'm so over joyed that it did😊❤ I have so much pattern paper that I kept telling myself; " don't buy anymore pattern paper until you use up all that I have. Your greeting cards are so stunning and exquisite that I'm excited to give them a try. On another channel, can't remember who's channel it was though she had put embossing powder over the top of the double side tape and than heateded it up with her heart gun & it really turned out lovely 😊❤. I'm adding that way to my list of trying it out also. I truly enjoyed watching your video & your voice is so sweet and calming that it helped me to relax. I could listen to your voice all day long & nights when I'm restless. Thank You for sharing with us. Sending Love, Hugs and Blessings to you and your Family and your TH-cam Family ❤ Xoxo Vicki from the United States in the State of Utah 🍯🐝😍❤😊❣
Thank you so much Vicki! I’m just as happy that you found me too! 😄. The embossing powder does work really well with that grouting technique too and I especially love it when it’s a metallic powder. There’s just something about all that shine! 😄💕💕
Wow Karen! I can’t believe how many gorgeous cards you made!! Such amazing ideas, and so beautiful!! Thank you so much for sharing, I have soooo much pattern paper, maybe now I’ll be able to get some cards and envelopes made!! Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring me!!!😀❤️👍🏼
Awww, thank you so much Liz! I have oodles of that patterned paper too, so I also have to do more with it. I really do appreciate your continued support! 🤗❤️❤️
I loved watching how you explained using big bold papers, but I really like your envelope templates, they look amazing Thank you Xx❤
Thank you so much Lynn! I’m glad you liked the envelope liners too! 😄💕💕
Your work is gorgeous. Definitely inspiring me. I'm trying to get back into card making after more than a year's hiatus. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much Jane! And I’m sure the card making will all come back to you! 😄💕💕
Even though this video is 2 years old, you gave some pretty examples that I will now try to incorporate. I'm trying to use what I have this year. So this really helps. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Elizabeth! I’m also trying to use up my supplies this year and not waste them. It’s going to be a slow process to get to the end of them! 😂💕💕
So many beautiful cards. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Benedicte! 💕💕
I love doing strips but have never seen the gilding flakes being used that way. Beautiful! And the fans are outstanding! Well done!
Thank you so much! That is a fun way to use the leftover strips of cardstock. I’ve also tried adding them to mirror cardstock which gives a similar result without the mess of the flakes. 😄💕💕
What a wizard you are with these cards from patterned paper, stunning cards, designs I've never seen before. Love it!
Thank you so very much Bonnie! That’s very kind of you! 💕💕
Your trick with the foil in between strips of paper blew my mind!! Thanks for a great video!
Thank you so much Michelle! I do love that little pop of gold with the strips of paper too. 😄💕
Hi, First time watching your video. Your cards are all so pretty. You are very talented.
Thank you so very much Nancy! That’s very kind of you! ❤️❤️
Beautiful cards, I am glad that I found you. I will definitely try some of these. Thank you
Thank you so much Kathy! I hope you have lots of fun! 😊💕💕
You have produced some beautiful examples.
Thank yo7 so very much! 💕💕
Amazing! No words to appreciate…… 🇨🇦
Thank you so very much Alma! That’s very kind of you! 💕💕
That grouting technique with the foil is fabulous !!!
Thanks Melissa! That is a really fun technique because the foil just adds the sparkle! 😄💕💕
Gorgeous cards! Wow! Love the "Thanks a Million" fan card. Looks like a designer card from a very high-end artsy store. The "Have a Warm and Cozy Christmas" and "Welcome Little One" card are adorable and the poinsettia card is so classy.
Thank you so very much! That’s really kind of you and I appreciate it! 💕💕
thanks it is fun to see your card making
Thank you so much Lana! ❤️
Your channel just popped up and I wanted you to know how much I enjoyed your designs. Although I've been a papercrafter for many years, you have introduced me to a plethora of new ideas! Beautuful creations and wonderful instruction. I was mesmerized!
Thank you so very much Belinda! I really appreciate your kind comments and I’m glad if I could provide some more inspiration! 💕💕
Wow! You are super talented! I got so much decorative paper! Now I know how I'm going to use it! Thank you 🤗
Thank you so much Indie! I’m thrilled that you may have gotten some inspiration from the video! Have fun. 😊💕💕
Your cards are amazing! After many years of watching videos, you brought ideas I had never seen before. Thank you!
Thank you so much Sofia for such a sweet comment! That’s so kind of you! 💕💕
I loved every card! So happy I find your chanel!
Thank you so much Malian and I’m happy you found me too! 😄💕💕
I'm absolutely speechless at these cards, they are amazing!
***You definitely don't want to glue the bottom of your envelope liners. The liner piece needs to be able to move when you open the envelope, otherwise it's going to split or buckle on you.
Thank you so much! That’s really, very kind of you and I truly appreciate it! And that’s a great point about the envelope liners not being glued. 💕💕
OMG thank you for posting this. I have sooooo much dsp or pattern paper, I have been tearing out a few in a pad of it, and donating the balance to local elementary schools.
You are so welcome Virginia! I know exactly what you mean too as I gave away loads of mine to the Goodwill. And then I just felt guilty for having bought it in the first place! 😅❤️❤️
Found you by chance … have subscribed! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much Ruthie and thanks for subscribing! 😊❤️
Great use of the patterned papers, thank you.
Thank you so much and I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 💕💕
Fantastic Cards!! I am thoroughly inspired!!😊
Thank you so much Vickie! I’m glad I could give you a little inspiration. 😄💕💕
I just found this video and absolutely LOVE all of these great ideas!
Thank you so much Debbie! There is so much beautiful patterned paper out there, that it would be a shame not to use it. 😄💕💕
What an inspirational video. So many ideas and something we can find inour stash to work with. Thank you so much. 😊
Thank you so much Karen! That’s really kind of you and I’m glad you enjoyed it! 💕💕
This is the first video I've seen of yours and everything is so beautiful! I'm a beginner and hope to achieve some pretty cards. Thank you for showing so many ideas 🌸
Oh, thank you so very much Mary - that’s really kind of you! I’m sure you will make lots of beautiful cards. My best advice I could give you (which is the same as what I tell myself over and over…) is that it’s a process and every time you try, you will get better and better. Besides it’s only paper and still better than a store bought card. 😅💕💕
Such many ideas, not all requiring craft machines, I was pleased to see.
Thanks Eileen, and I think simple is better sometimes. 😄💕
Those cards are fabulous. OMG that wrapping station card!
Thank you so much Bonnie! Those theater fold cards are really fun and I love that you can have a surprise inside them. 😄💕💕
I happened up Craft Consortium papers a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with them. Graphic 45 and Consortium Papers are definitely my favorites! I got Made By Elves in Simon Says Stamp December Kit and those papers went very quickly.
They really are beautiful papers! I saw a lot of the Made by Elves cards that people made on Instagram with their SSS kits and loved them. That’s a really beautiful, nostalgic collection. 💕💕
Karen stunning cards. Such great ideas. May have to skip the walk for crafting while I’m inspired 😊
Thank you so much Sandy, but I hope you got your walk in too! I know that feeling well. 😄💕💕
Absolutely stunning cards! Every one of them is inspirational! I would love to see a video on how to choose the different patterned papers to go together. These are very inspirational examples!
Thank you so much Traci! That’s really kind of you! 💕💕
Absolutely love this
Thank you so much Mayme! 💕💕
My favorite video of all time!

Thank you, Karen.. This is a treasure trove of card techniques and design ideas! I’ve subscribed and look forward to trying some of these. At 81, I’d better get started or I’ll never get to use all my ideas. Or, YOUR ideas, but it’s fun even just to see your cards and techniques. You’re a great teacher, I’ve subscribed.
Thank you so much Carol! That’s what I love the most about this hobby of ours - there are endless possibilities! 😄💕💕
I would never have thought of these ideas...thank you for sharing...I love all of them...
You are so welcome and I hope they help! 💕💕
These are just so beautiful. All these tools your talking about makes me feel like where do I even start
Thank you Maxine! There are so many things you could buy when starting out, that it can be very overwhelming. You are probably best to just start with some coordinating inks and a few stamps and dies until you get the feel for what you really enjoy. And have fun! 😄💕💕
Your cards are WONDERFUL!
Wonderful ideas! Thanks a bunch.
Thank you so much Penny! 💕💕

Very creative ideas, Karen! Thank you for sharing your inspiration and techniques. I have never seen dies cut out of the patterned paper, but you have shown that they work very well! Also, I have never seen nor thought of using touch and seal plastic wrap for temporarily holding due cut pieces-a great tool!

Amazing and simple ideas!
Awesome 👏🏼. Thank you for sharing.
