I love Iron man!! Love your cards Laurel! 🤗
Thanks for sharing your techniques and your cute cards.
Love these techniques!!! AND I love your videos!!! You are SO fun!!
Loved all your ideas, textures, colors, designs! Thank you so much for sharing and all your great inspiration. Have a great day💖
Thank you! You too!
I always get a kick out if your videos. I also learn a lot. Thank you for making them so much fun.
These are SO fun! I hate when I do the upside down stamp, too
Loved the cards. The super hero sets are on my wish list as I too am a huge nerd!
So glad to see yr back. Loved the cards!
I come for the sense of humor! I can always count on having a fun chuckle. and of course how easy you make card making look. Its very raw/original. You remind us that card marking shouldn't be stressful. Thank you for that! I always look forward to your videos. keep them coming!!
Oh thank you!
Love these cars! Thanks. So cute!
Thanks for sharing.
I enjoyed hearing your cafting vocabulary. 😂
You must be a fun person to be around with. ❤
I know right! Laurel is probably a fun party starter! :)
Wonderful ideas Laurel! Thanks!!
I love the cards... but really loved you showing the "accidents". Man, how many times these things have happened to me, and I bet lots of other people. But it all works out in the end. Once I put the panel on upside down . So I left it that way and when I was writing my greeting I did a P.S. that said "Did you have fun figuring out how to open this card?"
What an excellent video! I love your personality and I love Marvel so this was perfect! Thank you!
What if you are making a card for a guy who loves orange and is way more into Shakespeare than Marvel Superheroes?
I think there isn’t really masculine and feminine when it comes to card design. There are enthusiasms and interests. Favorite colors. Color schemes. Color preferences even. Look at how many name brand card makers love blue & green. Especially “pool” . What even is pool? I’ve never seen a single swimming pool that looks like the card stock or inks labeled “Pool”. But I digress.
If you design your cards around someone’s interests and use colors they like, it eliminates any design dilemma--at least as far as theming goes. Even if you are making for the masses rather than a specific person, designing around interests still works. And you can mix up the colors by making multiple versions of the same card.
I like the cards; I’m not complaining about these specific cards. I’m saying we create difficulty where there really isn’t any. Laurel said she’s a Marvel nerd and these cards would work for her. My bonus dad would not recognize a single Marvel character. Especially as cosplayed by a moose. 🫎 However cute he is.
Once I made my husband a Valentines card based entirely on my enthusiasms. It had all the colors of sunset--oranges, purples, pinks, reds, and a little bit of yellow, way more gold ‘cause I like glitter, foiling, and heat embossing. And yes, I added all of these. Tons of hearts. Lots of flowers. Guess what? It’s his favorite Valentine card I have ever made him. It’s also okay to give the ones you love cards that represent you. Put your 💗 heart in ‘em.
Don’t stress and don’t overthink it. We’re supposed to be having fun. Play with all the colors. Play with different themes. Mostly just have a good time.
Laurel, I am SOOO glad that I am not the only one who stamped upside down. Loved the ideas. Thanks so much. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
Totally LUV your Marvel interest! A Marvel nerd also😊
Very fun. I love super heroes too! Great cards!
Love the backgrounds. My grandson likes the superheroes...may have to check them out!
Thanks so much!! You're awesome!! Love your style- the way you explain things- and your techniques. Plus you make us laugh!!😅 Great results on these cards. I will have to try some of the ideas... :)👍❤
Great cards! Loved them all ❤
Love the techniques, thank you for sharing.
Masculine cards are so hard for me, these techniques are perfect, thanks!
Even though I'm not into superheroes, I'm truly into those wonderful background techniques. tfs
Really fun cards!
You are the most honest crafter ever😂
I saved a wooden block from a stamp which I had removed, added fine felt cover to one side and use it as a “ press” when stamping
Adorable cards!
Very cool techniques. Tfs
I've just come across your videos. Love them, so subscribed. Thanks 😊
Texture with enbosxing paste, super,
You are so awesome!! Thank you.
Love all of them!
Love it, how many times to we do that!!! Great cards Laurel 🥰
Wowzers! That last background is killer! Love that texture! Thank you! 😊
Laurel I so love your videos, you are the best! You teach me techniques, you make me laugh and you show me how to make wonderful cards so thank you and have a fantastic day. Hugs x
Great ideas/techniques. Thanks. I would have left the upside down stamp to add interest. 😅
These backgrounds/cards are fabulous! I’m so glad i “discovered “ you 🤣 thanks for your honesty and showing how you fixed your errors!
Great masculine cards Laurel!! Those little critters are so cute!!
Great ideas.
Loving the techniques and those STAMPS.
Loved this video Laurel. Great cards too. Ironman is my fav! ♥🖤
Adorable!!
i LOVE riley and company! so much fun!
Wonderful background techniques for cards for boys, men. Love it.
Great cards. Best masculine cards I have seen.
Amazing cards 🥰 I love your techniques, the stamp-sets and your card designs ❤️ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Hi Laurel! I love your videos...
Hey I noticed you were one of the guests speakers at the craft room organizing event coming up. Is there a link for us to get tickets under you? Thank you! 😊
Great to see you. Also enjoyed the new ideas and techniques.
Love these cards, the characters are adorable. Your coloring is better than mine. TYFS
OMG Laurel, these cards are so cute!! I love superheroes, too! I'm not into too many critter stamps, but these are so fun!Definitely will have to get some. I love your videos, you are fun to watch and I learn how to be more open and fluid watching them (not stressing about perfection).
I recently bought some CP inks & reinkers. They are nice! Thank you for sharing your talents!!
Laurel, I laughed out loud when that stamp came out upside down! Thanks for leaving your booboo in and showing us how you recovered! I don't need any more stamps, but dang those moose are cute! You've shaken me out of my girly groove. Thanks!
You could have turned the text on the first background right side up, peeled off the moose heroes and coffee cup and stuck them to the top of the same card! You might need to add a floor under their feet unless they can fly - not that flying around while holding a coffee cup is the best idea…
Fun fun fun.
