All I can say is that you are a genius in card making. I LOVE your work. This work only makes me strive to better my work. I am ssssoooo glad that I found your site last year. Magic, simply magic!! ((((((((((hugs)))))))))) TFS!!!
Thank you so much for the beautiful cards Christina. I have been making cards for a little more than a year now but am on a very tight budget. I appreciate that you showed how to make these without spellbinders. I haven't a die cutting machine, nor do I have a heat gun for embossing, but you inspire me to be creative to try and get the same effects. You are amazing at this. Thanks so much.
You are so considerate to make a video for those of us that don't have the right spellbinders or those who can't get them... love the tip of cutting all frames at once, brill...you made a stunning card without one single flower, imagine!! hugs
absolutely gorgeous card and I really appreciate the fact I can make this without dies. I am trying desperately to rebuild my craft supplies after I lost everything in a house fire last year and on a very limited income as I was diagnosed with cancer a month after the fire so this really helps me to be able to create with what I may have on hand! Thank you so much for sharing your time and talent with us your a beautiful inspiration! hugs!! xoxoxo
Wow christina you are fantastic, love love love your work and tutorials, I can watch you all day,you make everything looks so easy and flawless and your voice is soooo soothing ........a pleasure to watch im inspired thank you!!!! x

Christina I really love 💕 both these beautiful and stunning cards. You are so clever, and when I think 💭 you’ve created the perfect card, you come up with something even better. Thank you so much 😊
Christine - I love my spellbinders but this card is just stunning and I will definitely be making this card soon. I love all your tutorials thanks so much
I have been looking for some new ideas and this is fantastic!!!! your work is exquisite and downright stunning. Thank you for sharing and for making a tutorial that is totally understandable and goes at a perfect pace You are amazing
Absolutely gorgeous! You've shown a card I think I can make with confidence after watching your great tutorial. Thanks so much from a very card challenged person. Hugs, A.
So beautiful and I like how you explain the step by step slow enough so that we can understand well at least for me since I want to make cards and have no clue great job thank you for sharing
These are so pretty I will be trying this,it looks so effective ,and as a new comer to card making I do not have much in the way of dies etc.I am so glad I found this tutorial,thank you for sharing .
Thankyou for your beautiful card tutorials. I only started card making this year after an accident where I lost my main hand, my right. I've learnt how to do things differently such as using my mouth to hold things in place and relearning different techniques with my left hand. Your work encourages me and I am always getting asked to make cards for people. Thankyou.
vcam56 Well done to you to find another way to craft. I am sure that your friends will love what you make for them and may you go on to make many more Big Hugs Cxx
Your projects are spectacular! You have so much talent and creativity. I'll never make cards like yours, but can watch your amazing videos for hours! Thanks for sharing.
This is just as pretty as the spellbinder ones! I love spellbinder dies, but they are a bit expensive, especially when so many are used. This way it allows for some of us who do not have too many of them, and it enables us to make gorgeous cards with less money, until we can purchase more spellbinders. Bless you!
This was an awesome tutorial and I love the butterfly on the cream card but both cards turned on fantastic and I love how simple you make it look to build your own frame without using so many dies on a card. I myself cannot afford all the dies even though I would love to have them all. Thank you so much.
Awesomely beautiful card,so nicely explained too!.Thanks alot! one can do this without the hi-fi gadgets/without the die-cuts etc. (which we don't have!)all it needs is a cutting tool , papers&imagination.
These are lovely cards.Great tutorial for those who dont have die cuts. However, I am sooo glad I do have the spellbinders... It make it so much easier... I can still use some of theres technics with sb dies. Thank you! tfs ~~MarieMac~~
hi i would love one of your cards they are so beautiful i have just started trying to make cards love watching your tutorials you are so good and make it look easy thankyou rose
I just appreciate the hard work you put into your cards. I will be making several of these. Can you give me some color combinations for the same card but using different colors.Thank you
Your cards are so beautiful and your tutorials are easily understood. Did you buy the die cut butterfly or did you use a die and cut it out yourself? If the later, what is the die name? Thank you from Julie (Australia)
I love this one Christina because I can't afford to get the dies, so now I know I can get the same wonderful (well, perhaps not that wonderful) effect without them :)
Beautiful cards !! thanks for the tutorials so clear ,& die-cut machines Are very expensive in India ,just for a hobby !! how did u make the flowers on the satin bow card please ?
The measurements of the card are not important and that is why I didn't give any. Make the card to what ever size you want it to be and then create the frame and the lattice work to fit the front. And try adding the lattice work to other shapes too for another effect on you designs xx
Hi Christina....I am wondering what size this card is. I heard you say that it was an A4 card cut down and the width was 5.5", but how tall is it? Is it 8-1/2" by 5.5"? Or did you cut it down to 7".....I'd like to make this card....it is beautiful and your directions are so clear. I live in Alberta Canada and we don't use the A4 or A2 or A5 sizes, so if you could give me the measurements in inches, I would be truly grateful. Thank you so much.....I love your videos.....Cheers!
This card can be created any where and as you can see you don't need the die cutter. And having a heat gun is not a problem either as there are many really good glues that can hold everything in place for you. So take a look at some of my other videos which can be adapted to suit your own personal needs and enjoy ... and thank you for your support xx
What talent you have to be able to create such beauty with simple pieces of paper! Truely gifted!
Any paper in your hands becomes something amazing. Thanks for taking the time to show us how to make pretty things with bare minimum supplies. DD
Beeee-uuuu-ti-ful!!!!! I love your work and you're so easy to follow! Thanks for sharing.

Your cards are so beautiful and your tutorials are easily understood. Did you buy the die cut butterfly or did you use a die and cut it out yourself? If the later, what is the die name? Thank you from Julie (Australia)
beautiful
I love this one Christina because I can't afford to get the dies, so now I know I can get the same wonderful (well, perhaps not that wonderful) effect without them :)
lovely!
The butterfly is a die cut from Marianne Creatables and is the Large Butterfly ...
Beautiful cards !! thanks for the tutorials so clear ,& die-cut machines Are very expensive in India ,just for a hobby !! how did u make the flowers on the satin bow card please ?
ranjani varadpande They are bought flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts ... here is the link for you ... www.wildorchidcrafts.co.uk
I love this card, it's so pretty. However are there any written directions? If so, how do I get them?
Wow! As, usual.
Nicely Done. Never thought to cut the three windows at once. I would have been driving myself crazy getting them to match. Thanks again.
The measurements of the card are not important and that is why I didn't give any. Make the card to what ever size you want it to be and then create the frame and the lattice work to fit the front. And try adding the lattice work to other shapes too for another effect on you designs xx
i can't imagine 13 people didn't like this. idiots! these are just BEAUTIFUL!!
susan RN Oh goodness that made me laugh ... thank you so much for your comment Cxx

forgot to add,lovely mucic too!
what are the measurements for this card.
What is the size of the base.
I tell you at the beginning of the video the size of the card Cxx
