Tell me Natasha do you ever sleep . Your mind must be buzzing the whole time with ideas 😂. Once again fantastic video and i will be using this idea . Thanks for sharing all your ideas x
I really appreciate a super easy tutorial like this. One of my favorite simple cheats is using a really pretty patterned paper as the background, a skinny strip of plain cardstock on the lower half, then a stamped sentiment on cardstock on top of the strip. Doesn’t have to match the base, but it can. It’s my go-to when my brain isn’t creative. Sometime the skinny strip becomes ribbon with a very cool die I have. 😊
It amazes me how much people appreciate beautiful handmade cards. I have learned so much from your videos! My friends and family will love these. Thank you!
Wonderful cards. Great layout. And once again, I want to say thank you for getting right into your creations. Your videos are a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing. 😊🤗
We are just catching up after we've had a awful week and my lovely son who is 7 has discovered the word extraordinary and he really loved the last card. His exact words were I really like this card it's extordinary. Both my babies look forward to watching your videos I'm not allowed to watch without them. This video and your recent video have given me some inspiration as I've been struggling lately ❤xx
NATASHA, this has to be my absolute favorite video you have ever made, I have a lot of 6x6 paper pads just waiting to be used up. Perfect layout, easy to decorate each. Card. You are AMAZING!
Sweet!!! I love, love the way just changing the colors or pattern of the paper makes the cards look so different. In the back of your mind, you recognize the basic shape is the same. But the awesome and creative selection of those colors and patterns leads you to see an entirely different style of card. I can see a little folio of these cards on my mom's desk for her to send to her 'snail mail' friends group. I this these could be put in a little box and given as a gift. Who gives stationery any more! I'd be thrilled to get a little box of these cards. This is a fantastic outine. Now my busy little brain is full of what ifs? Hhmmm... don't think this would work with circles........
Great, simple template. I always seem to think too complicated and there are times when we need to keep things simple! Thanks for the lovely card ideas.
My absolute favourite is the pink flower one with the rectangular sentiment turned into a diamond. Really like the idea of paper pads for quick cards .
Natasha, I have rewatched this and noticed that you used a paper pad that I have recently purchased. The florals are so gorgeous. Thank you once again for your amazing ideas. 😊👋
Regarding the DILEMMA of DOUBLE SIDED PAPER … “Oh dear, oh dear, which do I use?!?”. I’ve run into that a time or two, OR need one more sheet of one side or the other to make a layout work. When that happens I copy the paper I need onto HP 32# PREMIUM COPIER PAPER. As long as I’m copying a patterned sheet, the match is pretty good. The solid colors don’t often match closely enough to use on the same card.
I went straight into my craft room and did one that is my version of your FAB layout and design. You could do so many different things with this. I especially like the idea of matching papers in a pack. It makes it so easy for so many people. Thanks again, Natasha. ❤
A variation: when using double sided paper, place pieces in basic layout as shown. Before gluing, turn the left pieces over, move the top left piece to the bottom left and move the bottom left piece up. Slightly more asymmetrical.
What a good idea for using those crazy sometimes"I don't like that piece of paper" for! Truthfully I didn't think I'd like what you were doing. As always you got it to look really elegant! 🙂
This really is a visually satisfying layout! And with so many possibilities... stencils, embossing folders, large images... so Thank You for inspiring me out of my norm! 😂 They're all lovely but the first one (gold die cut) and the last one (floral wreath) stuck out for me😊
Natasha , I really need to get a or some coordinate paper pads . It would cut my time in designing a card , by a lot , I think . It would take me two days to do five cards . All my cards are unique , as my mind takes over and my paper cutter makes all the pieces , different sizes and shapes . I home school two granddaughters, and the one who just turned 11 and going to be in the 6th grade , chooses the colors for each card . She is a pen pal to my 4 year old great granddaughter , so she decides what colors , and what pages of stickers to put in the card . I create a little pocket , and the granddaughter writes a simple message to her little cousin . She also decides to use glue on jewels or little object cut out , like a bird, a flower , etc that is traced on contrasting paper . She also draws little pictures to put in the pocket ❣️Thank you for your inspirations . It is now July 2024, so commenting on an old video ❤️
You are right it is an easy layout. My favorite card is the last one with the aquas and the pinks. I find myself gravitating towards those colors often. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.
Fantastic cards, Natasha! Perfect layout for using up patterned papers...which I have tons of....ha! Definitely going to try this! Thanks for the inspiration :)
Natasha I don't know what to say; I'm Speechless 😮😊There all so beautiful cards. I've been in the dumps not knowing how to get out and these cards have inspired me so much. TFS Reaching out and giving your wee little one a sweet Hello 👋 Sending Love, Hugs and Tons of Smiles to you and your Family and your TH-cam Family ❤ Xoxo Vicki from the United States in the State of Utah 🍯🐝 Thanks again Natasha for helping me feel like getting back into the card crafting ❤😊❣
Love your cards and the easy simple but elegant layouts🥰🥰by the way, I love to color, especially with crayons, for some reason when you color with crayons and then you outline the picture with crayons it gives the colored picture a very rich look to it.
Wish the "thumbs up" button had a "heart" option because I love this tutorial. I have so any papers and silhouette dies in my stash--you've just given me such inspiration for using them! tfs❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I have to make birthday cards for my choir, and i need about 40 cards. Thank so much for sharing this design, I'm going to get to and do some batch making.
Oh my goodness I love these cards! I really need to test out that layout. The cards from the kit were absolutely stunning, especially that final 49 and Market one. Thanks so much Natasha 😊❤
Such beautiful cards yet so simple. Definitely going to give it a go. I've got a couple of friend's birthdays this month, so as they say in the UK "job's a gud 'un 😊
I always love to watch your videos. Everyone says to save all the bits and pieces. But you are the only one who shows us what to do with them.
Tell me Natasha do you ever sleep . Your mind must be buzzing the whole time with ideas 😂. Once again fantastic video and i will be using this idea . Thanks for sharing all your ideas x

Love the cards, especially the purple leafy version. The diagonal element adds something extra. Thanks for sharing this!
NATASHA, this has to be my absolute favorite video you have ever made, I have a lot of 6x6 paper pads just waiting to be used up. Perfect layout, easy to decorate each. Card. You are AMAZING!
love them all, but my fave is the first one, with the gold leaf, backed with vellum. TFS!
So very nice!! LOL, "done and dusted" Love it
Not exactly sure how I missed this!!!🤷🏻♀️ I love these cards!! 😊💖
You are a very creative person. Keep up the good work. 😊
You are pretty amazing, Natasha! I always love your videos!
Inspiring as usual. The light and dark shades gave me the idea for a Mondrian style card using black card for the background.
Thank you again for this video. I learn so much from you every time I watch your video. It always inspire me to make better and more beautiful cards.
Such a versatile layout! I love the 2 for one option 👏

Great, simple template. I always seem to think too complicated and there are times when we need to keep things simple! Thanks for the lovely card ideas.
Stunning!! You completely WOW me in almost every video!! And you do it with such simple techniques, using items most of us have.
So many times I've needed a simple, sweet card and this is perfect. Thanks!
Such lovely cards that are quite simple to make. I love your videos Natasha.
GREAT ideas for cut aparts. i never know what to do with them. 😎
I might use this idea for Christmas cards. I have so much paper to use up. Really enjoyed this video. Very inspiring!
I love your awesome variations of the ‘Stack, Cut & Shuffle’ card technique! Do try stacking & cutting 4 papers at a time instead of individually. 💕
Love this layout! I love 49 & Market too, they have some fantastic rub-ons as well as paper, embellishments, all sorts of stuff.
These cards are simply amazing ! So easy to put together. You have incredible ideas, thanks Natasha ! 😊👋
This is so perfect for showing off those pretty DSP's without it being overwhelming. Love that 1st card with the vellum leaves - nice touch! TFS!
Thanks for continuing to inspire me Natasha, simple, achievable and impactful!
I've really enjoyed making cards for 25 years. I love your ideas. 💜
My absolute favourite is the pink flower one with the rectangular sentiment turned into a diamond. Really like the idea of paper pads for quick cards .
Great cards! I always like seeing ways to make multiple cards! Thank you!
Wow the five cards all look so different even though you used the same background layout. Love your ideas 😊
Natasha, I have rewatched this and noticed that you used a paper pad that I have recently purchased. The florals are so gorgeous. Thank you once again for your amazing ideas. 😊👋
