Thanks
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that 🥰🥰🥰
I love your videos- I am in my late 70’s and just getting started in card making. I too talk to myself, laugh at my mistakes and admire my cards that turn out. I just can not stop - I have over 100 in my stash now. People ask me what are you going to do with them - right now I don’t know I just love making them and can’t seem to part with them. You are so much fun to watch.
Oh that’s brilliant, it’s all about enjoying what you’re doing. I give lots of mine to a friend who sells them for charity and I give a lot to the local hospice to raise money, but there are some that I just can’t part with, until the next favourites come along 😂😂🥰🥰🥰
Lovely cards, have you always spoke like that? Lovely to see a commoner like you doing well on TH-cam 🖤
No offence, but that cracked me up 😂😂😂😂 of course I’ve always talked like this, I’m a common old bird from Essex, no airs and graces here 😂😂 glad you liked the cards 🥰🥰🥰
I just want to say I love watching your videos. I am glad I am not the only one that has racing ideas spouting in my head !!! Love the way you giggle at yourself!!!!
Thanks so much, sometimes my head hurts with ideas 🤗😂😂🤗🤗🤗
Marion, you crack me up so much! 😂
I enjoy how your mind changes because that shows your creativity.
The cards turned out so beautiful!
Thank you so much! My poor brain doesn’t stop 😂😂🥰🥰🥰

Hi Marion, beautiful cards and very educational. All the hearts n just have to say I ❤ thwm all. Thank you as always x
Thank you so much Lynne 🤗🤗🤗
Marion, you are hilarious! I so enjoy your videos and wish I could spend an afternoon making cards with you!
Thanks Linda, I’m just going to have to sort out doing some lives 🥴🥴 that’s the next best thing 🥰🥰🥰
If you roll your brayer over another card topper instead of wiping with a baby wipe, you will end up with another background without wasting ink😉cheers from 🇨🇦Calgary, Alberta🇨🇦beautiful cards!! 😊
I must admit I do that when I do my mixed media journal, but I find that there’s still ink left, I probably don’t roll hard enough 😂😂 I’ll try and remember to do that with my cards, I’m always needing spare backgrounds, thanks for reminding me 🥰🥰🥰
Fun video, Marion! I keep telling myself I don’t need any new stuff, but I don’t listen very well!
Exactly! 😂😂 I’m sitting on my hands right now, it’s hard 😂😂😂🥰🥰🥰
I am from the US and I love your accent!!! What creative ideas!! Love all your cards!! Very helpful!!
Thanks so much Michele! 😊😊😊
Hi Marion, what a superb video!!

Much love…Ann ❤❤ xx
Thanks so much Ann, that’s so kind of you ! 😊😊😊

Hi Marion, I've only just discovered your videos but l am hooked, I'm useless at embossing despite trying many times, but I'm so inspired by you and your flitting about with ideas and just being who you are, it's so freeing, l love laughing with you and now want to try so many things, my mind is just blown away with your inspiration l don't know what to try first. Keep up the amazing work l love it and you. 🎉

Thank you Brendaelaine, I just love playing 🥰🥰🥰
You are the BEST !!!
Awww thank you 🤗🤗🤗
Marion, I love the card you cut the hearts out of over a white card and the pink cut hearts on the white card, the white just makes the hearts pop!
I do love white space 😍😍😍
I love watching you make cards…..your accent, and how you laugh at yourself….I look forward to your videos….thank you!!
Oh thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
Yea Marion I need new contacts STRONGER!!
😂😂 I’ve just got my new glasses and now I have headaches… I can’t win 😂😂😂🥰🥰
" We buy stuff and maybe use it once and never use it again...." Have you been lurking outside of my craft room window 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 great video, thank you so much as usual! ❤
😂😂 it’s true though, and as I said in this video, I’ve bought it and NEVER used it, it’s terrible !! I’m on a mission 😂😂🥰🥰🥰
My biggest problem with card making is trying to come up with ideas
Pinterest and You Tube will be your best friends for ideas, warning though, you’ll get lost for hours 😂😂😂
Or do what I do and just plonk some stuff in front of you and start playing, if it doesn’t work out, it’s just a piece of card 😍😍😍
I almost never come up with an idea and execute it. I make things in batches, like backgrounds, die cutting and assembling shapes, stamping and cutting out images, fussy cutting sentiments etc. Or die cutting certain words from alphabet dies. Then I make a big old mess and play around with all of it! Sometimes I make a single card in a week and other times I finish 10 cards in a day because I've made so many little elements that then all work together perfectly.
@@RamoArt that’s such a good idea, I love it 🥰🥰🥰
Me too, hard time coming up with good ideas 😅.
@@fierceritarm I have been crafting since I was about 8, I’m 59 now, I’m sure I just up cycle my ideas from all those years 😂😂😂🥰🥰🥰
You are so real I love your videos.
Thank you Judy 🥰🥰🥰
Love the distress ink and oxides one of the best investments I made was an office metal filing tray with several shelves from a charity shop cost me a few quid, its next to my working area I use it to put my wet projects on when doing multiples it wipes clean i then can make a lot all at once and place them apart to dry.😮
Sounds great! Isn’t it great when you find something like that 😍😍😍
Thank you for these great ideas. ❤
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching 🥰🥰🥰
I just love you!!I have so much stuff and I have never used
I’m just the same Linda and yet I buy more 😂😂😂
@@marionemberson me too!!! I keep telling myself stop
Buying stuff and get busy. I had to get those hearts and I ordered them today!! You are a gem!!
I have zero will power and I suffer badly from FOMO 😂😂😂 oh love those hearts, so versatile, have fun 🤗🤗🤗@@lindajackson4779
@@marionemberson Thank you Marion and have a fabulous day!
You are so funny. Your thoughts flitter here & there, and I wonder “ oh no” 😯, but every time, you pull it off and they look great! 🥰. Thanks for the fun, & keeping it real!
Thank you, you should be inside my brain, it’s a mess 😂😂😂🥰🥰🥰
Love your accent
Thanks Cathy 🤗🤗🤗
My favorites are the hearts
You can’t go wrong with a heart 😜😜🥰🥰🥰
Love all the cards, thank you for the inspiration :)
You’re so welcome 😍😍😍

Excelente! Abraço de Portugal 🇵🇹
Thank you Linda 🥰🥰🥰
Love this ❤
Thanks Michele 🥰🥰🥰
Amazing cards, Marion. I also love those leaf dies. Actually any leaf dies💕I think Tim H Sizzix has some leaf dies that just cut out of the background without cutting out a separate leaf. They are pretty interesting as well.
Thanks Donna, yes, I have those dies, they’re lovely, I have used them in previous videos, I may get them out again 😜😜🥰🥰🥰
Oh, what fun, Marion. I so love your cards. Thank you for sharing your talents and your joy. 🥰
You are so welcome, thanks for being here 🥰🥰🥰
Love this "use what we have"!!! ❤
Thank you 🥰🥰 let’s face it we all have SO much #fact 🥰🥰🥰
I swear, I love watching your videos you are great at talking about your process. Gorgeous gorgeous cards.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoy them 🥰🥰🥰
I love it all Marion. I feel as though I’m in your room with you half the time because I talk to you as you’re going through it all 😂 xx
Love that! I’ll have to do a live one day 🥰🥰🥰
Wow, great video! You showed so many ideas for backgrounds, dies, embossing, and such cute finished cards! Thank you for taking us along as you create.
So glad you enjoyed it 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks Marion, great cards and ideas!
You are so welcome Debbie 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing your creative talents, and bringing joy ❤.
You are so welcome, thanks for being here 🥰🥰🥰
Your "letterpress" worked way better that the actual one. I've watched a lot of videos with it and the impression is not all that noticeable. Good Job Marion :)
Awesome, thank you! I really liked the look, subtle but effective 😍😍😍
Those backgrounds are gorgeous!
I do love a background 🥰🥰🥰
Fabulous makes Marion. Such fun and inspiration . So love the way you get your finished designs very classy. Thank you for sharing 🥰 xx
Thank you so much Shirley 😍😍😍
Hello new to your channel. Thanks for the inspiration! 💕
You’re very welcome, glad you’re here 😍😍😍
wow , du papier bleu adhesif qui coupe le papier , plus besoin de machine , c est super
So glad you liked it 🥰🥰🥰
I love glitter. I would use warm white glitter direct to card, topped with the heart template. ❤🇦🇺
Love that! That would look gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰
The two heart cards were my favourites! Really enjoyed the video.
Yay, thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
Great techniques & a really enjoyable tutorial 👍🏼 thank you ! Amazing cards too 🤩👍🏼
Thanks so much! 😊😊😊
Loving This Tutorial!
All the Cards turnout Beautiful.
That Faux Letter Press have to try on my Big Shot. 🤩🩷🤩🩷🤩
Thank you, yes give it a go, it’s fun 🥰🥰🥰
I am such a big fan. So glad I found you. Love the multiple heart card.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you’re here 🤗🤗🤗
You're like me, too many ideas constantly xxx
It doesn’t make for a good nights sleep does it !! 😂😂🥰🥰🥰
Magnetic sheets work very well to keep your dies organized.
Thank you, I do have lots on magnetic sheets…. And then I ran out 😂😂🥰🥰🥰
Loved what you did with these. And too funny, but I just got an email from Altenew, and the leaf die set is on sale for $16.50.
Thanks so much Susan, I’ve popped it in the community tab to let everyone know, such a bargain. 🥰🥰🥰
She is funny
Lady... I sure wish you would stop doing these videos. It is difficult enough to get through my day without deeking into my studio to try YET ANOTHER brilliant idea that you share > No REALLY - I get NOTHING done if I even watch one video of yours because one leads to the other which leads to the other and next thing I know - yah.. I have a million and a half cards on my desk all brilliant in design ALL BECAUSE OF YOU !! Love yah !! Thanks for taking the time to teach us and thanks for your humour and side trips during your teaching when another idea pops into your head. THANKS A LOT. lololololol xxxxxxx You are a rock star ( the non druggy kind ) CATHERINE
😂😂😂 sorry about that 😂😂😂 I’m so glad they inspire you though 🥰🥰 thanks so much for watching them 🥰🥰🥰🥰
You can also use the ‘stencil’ you made as a template to line the dies back up again if you can’t keep them stuck to the mint tape. 😊
You are delightful to listen to, creative and clever and I learn so much…thank you so much
I did that on another video and forgot it on this one, I’m such a forgetful numpty, thanks for the reminder 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks so much, that’s really kind 😍😍😍
Hi love you work! Pls, name of tape are you using?
It’s mint tape, it’s in the description under ‘products I used’ 🥰🥰🥰
Please could you tell me where to buy 4" mint tape in the UK.
Love your videos btw!
Hi Penny, unfortunately, I’ve never found it here, hence I buy it from scrap book com every time I purchase from them. They really offer excellent shipping rates, I’ve never paid customs (yet) I’ve just done an order with them for $120 and the shipping was $7.99 and I got a free gift… I love them, that’s why I always recommend them. If you fancy giving them a go, the products I use from them are listed in the video description where it says ‘show more’ just click on one of there ones (SBC) and it’ll take you there.
So glad you enjoy the videos 🥰🥰
@@marionemberson
Thank you so much
I love both sets I bought of those Altenew dies. But it’s been the most difficult year of my life and I can’t get to them or many of my new products. I did stock my supplies heavily all in 2 years and I just don’t have the time being doubly disabled and alone, to have time to make cards. It’s killing me working like a man all the time. I long to have time to use my great supplies.
Just concentrate on getting yourself back to how you were…. Your supplies will still be there 🥰🥰🥰
@@marionemberson thank you Marion. I’ve been working pretty hard. Trimming 4 spruce trees that are 12’ wide at the bottom. Then pruned out all the underneath branches on a crabapple I had trimmed but it wasn’t flat enough on the bottom. Filled a full can with 1 foot pieces I chopped up. Mowed day before yesterday, it was so hot! Humid too. I barely made it in. Yesterday had to do my nails and just finished polishing them and it 1:45 am! I cut down again on 3 meds this week so that’s probably going to be tough. But God is helping me. Thank you! I miss you!
@@dizzinese blimey Denise, is there no stopping you, I can hardly pull out a weed, let alone prune a tree 😂😂😂 well done you 🥰🥰🥰
@@marionemberson you’re so cute! This is how hard I work everyday. The next day I went to make as close to perfectly straight the bottom of a crab apple tree. Thought it would be just a few snips with hand shears. Of course not even though I paid to have the 2 ornamental trees trimmed, they just reshape them. So I had to drag out 100ft cord and electric trimmers and trim above my head underneath the tree. Well it wasn’t as flat because there’s tons of branches growing from one side through to the other, branches growing straight down, etc. it had not been pruned out since years before when I did it! I chopped every branch into foot long pieces and filled a large garbage can! This is normal work for me. But today I had to come to a stop. I’m on such low doses of medication as I continue and near finishing tapering off my pain meds, I can barely walk. I did as much of the heavy work while still getting some help from the meds, but that is no more. And there’s much I wish I could tell you. You were like a friend to me. It’s very sad what was done to me, illegally. But that’s for an email. I’ve tried to work on the Christmas cards I started but never finished last year. But it takes great discipline as I’m not well and in pain.
W(✷‿✷)W Those "simple" cards so beautiful and amazing 🤩🤩
Love them. 🧡🧡
I don't have the Embossing//Cutting Machine..... maybe with something else I could make those cutting paper 🤔🤔
My FavCard is the one with the 🩷🩷🩷🩷 and "I miss you". 😊😊
Thanks so much! You can always download a template, such as a heart, from the internet, draw round it and cut it out 🥰🥰🥰
@@marionemberson thx 4 this Idea 🧡🧡🤝🏻
i have too many stuff and too little time to use it... :(
That’s the story of my life 😂😂😂🥰🥰🥰
Love your accent
Thank you, I have been likened to Dick Van Dyke 😂😂😂🥰🥰🥰
