    Beautiful cards as always, especially the first one for me, it bought tears. My little brother was also called Robin. He died aged 22 at RAF Waddington. Such a sad loss and always remembered. Thank you for the memories once again. Hugs x

    Hello Christine, I’ve only recently discovered your channel and have enjoyed going back and viewing a lot of your videos. You have provided me with a lot of inspiration and helped me use things I’ve had in my stash for years, including an aperture die and embossing folders. I love listening to you chat and talk through your creative processes.Thanks again. Julia C ( from Queensland Australia)

    What a great idea, I've struggled to find aperture dies. A hack for when you do the fiddly gluing, put the circle you cut out over the foliage shape and put your glue on the bits that stick out. Thanks for the video x

    • @Chrissieannie
      @Chrissieannie  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think you are referring to embossing dies. They cut into the card rather than cutting anything out!. Various companies make them but they are not as readily available as regular dies. Memory Box have some, Creative Depot, Simply Graphic, Charlie und Paulchen, Penny Black ! It’s a question of searching !😊

  • @CraftyCapersWithDawn
    @CraftyCapersWithDawn ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Christine, I’ve found you again. Something weird was happening on you tube. I went to look for your videos as always, and it suddenly kept showing a six year old (apparently with the same name as you) doing her ballet steps. Very interesting but not what I was looking for. So I put in your name again and added CAS cards and that seemed to do the trick. I love your card. It’s beautiful. I love the foliage over the aperture. Very stylish. Thank you for a wonderful video. The other thing that had happened was that you tube had unsubscribed me from your channel, but I’ve fixed that by hitting the subscribe button again. I’ve got some catching up to do but I know I’ll enjoy it. BTW the Robin is very cute. It’s great to be seeing your videos again. - Dawn 🌅
