    You are truly one-of-a-kind card creator among the hundreds of card creators on TH-cam.
    I think I can say without hesitation that you are the ONLY truly CREATIVE card maker who doesn’t rely on the latest stamps or dies or ink pad color to come up with the most unique and wonderful designs and creations. You even draw your own design elements like this pen and ink background demonstrated today, and it’s easy enough that anyone can do it. I’ve never seen any other card maker do this.
    While most card makers’ card designs are starting to look a little old, stale, and repetitive - because, let’s face it: there are only so many butterfly, bee, dragonfly, flower, and fern stamps and dies that one can use - yours are always fresh and new using old stamps, dies, colors, etc.
    I think the other card makers serve a useful purpose by demonstrating the newest dies, stamps, and other crafting tools that manufacturers come out with. But for sheer creativity with beautiful results, you have them beat hands down!

    Oh, Natasha! Sometimes I have no words to describe my delight at learning something from you and watching your cards come together. That background! I said right out loud, “That’s really somethin’’,” to no one but myself. You make me believe even I could draw! Thank you for sharing your endless talents with us! 💕🌸⚫️

  • @donnamovesian6345
    @donnamovesian6345 ปีที่แล้ว +32

    This would be a great background to make when the family is all watching a show and you have a doodle pad handy. Have a play around with different patterns and then you’d have several ready next time you can get to your card space. Love it! It would be cute in heart shapes and a red pen too❤

    Wow! The combination of Zentangle-esque black and white pattern and colourful die cut is really striking. Just FYI, The Zentangle type patterns aren't terribly difficult to shade just with a graphite pencil and paper stump (or Cottonbud) to blend out the harsh edges.

    Hello Natasha, another fantastic way to make a card. I love how you use tangles for your card! I keep forgetting to “think outside the box” Thank you fot another great tutorial. 😊

  • @channellingmartha1209

  • @scrappingscootergirl
    @scrappingscootergirl ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Cool technique! Love it in just black and white! We did a variation of this back in art glass where you basically just scribble lines with no rhyme or reason and then fill the spaces in with color!

    • @jerrygrimes8813
      @jerrygrimes8813 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I learned that sometime in grade school, and it came back to me recently while at a restaurant with my grandson. I created the scribble, and then he thought it was fun filling it in. Pretty cool results from some simple techniques!

    🌟 Wow!! 🌟 This card is stunning! I cannot draw or do hand-lettering, but this I am so eager to try!! Have you done other designs / drawn shapes with a similar technique? Thank you for teaching us this!!
    Side question for you or other followers: how does “buy me a coffee” work for the sender? I have only been able to find info about how to add to your channel, not how it all works if someone wants to buy another person a “coffee”.

  • @rivahcat8247

    When you drew the first one, I thought of a poppy seed pod. Also reminds me of the "psychedelic" doodles I made MANY years ago in my notebook margins.

    So talented! I've watched you now for quite some time & you never run out of ideas! Your cards are ALWAYS beautiful! It's smart to have those extra sentiments or whatever item it may be! I do that now & love the fact I have a grab & go box to where I can throw a nice looking card together in just a couple minutes.

    What a great video! I have never had the courage to try Zentangling because I've rarely seen it done from start to finish like your video shows--thanks to you, I'm going to give it a try. I think what really helped me is that when I see a finished piece, I tend to just see it all--and it all looks perfect and, therefore, beyond my ability. But you showed how some lines are not quite exactly the same, are not perfect. But you're done, the viewer just sees the whole perfect-looking piece. I'm really excited to give this a try! Thank you so much!

    Natasha, I. Think this is my very favorite card that you have ever made. Stunning and elegant. Question, are you able to show in one of your tutorials what New Zealand $ looks like. I have collected $ from around the world for over 40 yrs, I am very curious as to what it looks like.

  • @c.r.mcleod8959
    @c.r.mcleod8959 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    At first, I thought you were just doing some zentangle, but then I saw what you did with! Awesome. I'm going to go back through some of the zentangle sheets I've done and see if I can add something pretty to them! Save me some time with my Galentines Card!
