Beautiful! And I'm glad it's not only me who changes things up as the process of designing a card progresses. The finished article is sure to please its recipients 💕
Oh dear, that also happened to me. The Spellbinder machine is easy to take apart. Hidden screws under all the little white caps. My gear inside had fallen out, however there was also a plastic cylinder that had broken.
@@Chrissieannie I’m not given to adding much in the way of “do-dads” just for the sake of “bling”, but the “diamonds” were actually essential to carrying out both the theme and the design of the card. Call me impressed!! 👍👍👍‼️
Hi. I had a cuttlebug machine for 30 yrs. I was trying to emboss with a 3-d embossing folder and broke my machine. My husband and I took it all apart thinking the rollers just got misaligned. Didnt work, after there wasnt enough pressue. So out it went. I bought another cuttlebug (second hand) but I want a cutting machine that has an opening wider then 6''. My parents were married 62 yrs. Your card turned out beautifully, love the roman numerals. Enjoy your day. Tfs.Sherry 🇨🇦.
Oh my word! Disasters not withstanding Chris, you still managed to create an exquisite and elegant card. You never seem to become flustered when obstacles arise, merely pressing on, in the knowledge that all will be well in the end. The diamonds are the perfect finishing touch, your Grand Daughter would be delighted with your profligate use of them, Thank you for a brilliant video.
That card is absolutely gorgeous! I'm soooo glad you added the 'diamonds '. They were the perfect finish. I truly enjoy watching your process and some of my favorite are the ones that you have to pivot to Plan B. You always pull it off brilliantly!
Well another stunning card absolutely beautiful! Sorry about your machine.l did a silly thing once,thought my Gemini had broken as wouldn't work.After plugging and unplugging and using different plug sockets I decided to buy a secondhand machine.I picked it up and that didn't work until my husband switched the on button actually on.I didn't know it had an on/off button and just used the plug socket.Yes my original one still worked,what a fool I am 🤭
Very beautiful card. You did an awesome job working through the adversity your machine threw you. I always learn some wonderful things from you. The way you cut the foam tape and wrapped around the heart was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing ❤
Brilliant way of making curvy tape out of straight tape. I would never have thought about that. Very pretty card as well. Thanks for the great video. Hope you get your cutter repaired soon.
Hi Chris, sorry your machine broke,we miss them don't we, never mind a lovely new one coming tomorrow...well I was amazed when I saw you start your card, yesterday I made almost the same one for my husband as it's our 60th anniversary on 23rd of this month, I just can't believe how quickly it has gone..your card is wonderful,I'm sure the recipient will love it who wouldn't..see you tomorrow hopefully with your lovely new machine,thanks for the fabulous demo 😀
The diamonds are the best part! Perfect finishing touch, bringing everything together. Chris, I saw a YT content creator's husband take apart her Big Shot to repair a roller arm of sorts. He went through many levels of deconstruction by just removing every screw as he went. You may not repair the machine, but at least you'll have your missing cutting pieces. Grab some screwdrivers of various sizes and have at it. 🙂 From Cheryl in AZ
I have removed every screw, but the rollers seem to be attached in a different way, I’ll take another look at TH-cam for advice and then probably take it outside and drop it !🤣🤦♀️
Sorry to hear about your machine. Beautiful card though made with the trusty stand-in. Hope you manage to get the die and mat out successfully. Thanks Christine and have a good day x
Excellent card. Elegant as always🎉. I can imagine how you feel about your machine jamming. I get very upset if my machine is struggling and I give up. Seems to happen with 3d folders. My friend celebrate her DIAMOND wedding anniversary last year. She was young when she got married but they have lasted and are still devoted, very outgoing and happy.
Classy shaker card Chris. I am sure it will be loved. So sorry you had machine trouble today, I am glad you had a backup machine too. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
I can totally empathize with you as I jammed up a Gemini electric machine last year. My hubby took out every screw imaginabIe trying to loosen the rollers. To no avail. I mourned the loss of an arch die. But after your disaster, you have created a truly gorgeous card worthy of such an auspicious anniversary. Bravo!
@@lorimantovi6932 I've taken out every screw imaginable and is all apart, except for the rollers which are clinging on tight to my plates and dies. I may take what's left of it outside tomorrow and drop it!🤣
Oh my goodness. You did soo well. Still made a lovely card. Liked the idea of using the paper idea as I have used the ready made filling pieces and they do seem too thick sometimes, but the pearl double sided worked brilliantly. Really glad you got out all the plates etc. look forward seeing new machine being put through its paces 😉xxx
I had an electric Sissix that did the same thing. Took it all apart and retrieved my plates and dies. I have to use electric due to weakness. I really need to do hand and arm strength exercises!
Hi, I just subscribed you appeared on my feed and I love card making and craft. Although my kids put money together and bought me a cricut joy for Christmas, it nearly put me off card making for life. Any card I attempted the machine tore them to bits, I did use the card that came with the machine. I have contacted the firm Cricut but they are not helping at all. I thought they were better than that. I have sent photos of the machine and what it did when I tried to make cards. Xx Beautiful card well done ❤ x
Thanks for subbing! Sadly I haven’t any experience with the Cricut, have you looked to TH-cam for help ? I’m sure you will find something to interest you here as we do have lots of fun !😊😊😊
Oh dear, I did feel for you when you said disaster had struck Chrissie... I didn't think that running a frame through the machine should result in catastrophe and I thought you had only had the machine for two or three years, but maybe it is longer and you have used it a lot... Anyway it is a beautiful Diamond Anniversary card and such a lovely idea to make it a shaker with all the sweet little hearts, and the lovely pretty soft white glitter card you used for the heart frame and the added flowers and leaves, and shaker pieces, and the script you used for the sentiment detail looks so elegant....a brilliant card. x
Oh Christine, fingers crossed for you to be able to get your big shot working again. Maybe your husband can get it to work or at least get your plates out. I was cutting glitter card too with my first machine which was a little xcut one. I was devastated. I love this card, and the work that's gone into it is visible to the recipients.
Sorry about your machine, Christine. If you look on TH-cam, I bet there is something to help you take it apart to at least get your dies out. One of my machines did the same thing and my husband opened it up and got my dies out. Couldn’t save the machine but at least I had my dies😂. Your card is just beautiful 🤗
WOW! I've never had a machine break! My goodness. So sorry for your loss. As you know, I have all five of my Sizzix machines from the original to the Switch but haven't experienced a breakage. One of the advantages of having the same brand for them all is that the sandwiches are basically the same. (Not that I don't have to refer to the instructions on occasion when I've forgotten how to make the correct sandwich!) Got to love Amazon when you want something right away. This is a beautiful anniversary card and the addition of the "diamonds" just puts it over the top. Lovely, lovely.
@@kcinca5410 I've got the darn thing apart, except for the rollers which are clinging tight to the plates and a die, I think I'll take what left outside tomorrow and drop it!🤣
Dealing with the things that go wrong with equipment when you're working on a project is inevitable or your nose drips or itches. Why? Don't know, but there is always a fix! Hope you get your machine fixed/replaced and recover your dies! Anyway a beautiful card that I'm sure will be appreciated. Good FIX! 💥
I can't believe you were able to bounce back and produce such an amazing card! It is absolutely beautiful and will go on my list of favorite cards you've made. So elegant and l love the additional diamonds. Stunning! 🩷 PS: I know you've already ordered a replacement, but if you have a handyman in the family, it may be worthwhile to have them look at it anyway. There is a TH-cam video titled "Repair Spellbinders Platinum Die Cutting & Embossing Machine". It has no audio but does show how to disassemble and the gear mechanisms. If it turns out to be just the handle mechanism, Spellbinders sells a complete handle kit ($6 USD) and you'll have another backup machine. At worse, hopefully they can tinker with it to salvage your plates and dies. 🤞
@@Chrissieannie You may need to change the video setting for playback speed to slow it down at the point where he's taking it apart. It's a pretty short video with no audio, but hopefully it will help. Good luck! 🩷
@@JH-wd7ul I provided her with the link further up in the comments so I hope she finds it. I, too, slowed it down to 5 0 % !! I think it may help her … I sure hope so!!
@@Chrissieannie Sorry, I didn't notice this until after sending yesterday's comment. In case you haven't been able to rescue the die/plates ... The same gentleman has another video that expands on breaking down the roller system. Again, no spoken directions and you may need to slow the playback speed. Video is titled "Diagnostics Spellbinder Platinum" and jump to 3:00. 🤞
@@kkrolf2782 I included the title, but not the link, because I had read info that TH-cam can remove viewer comments with links (due to spam). I'm not sure if this is correct, so sent the title instead to be on the safe side. Thank you for sending her the link! I hope she's had success.
Hi Christine. What a fabulous card -- so elegant the white on white. I felt just horrified for you when your Platinum cutter jammed up. I still have and depend on my Big Shot. It's been quite a work horse and I hope it keeps going (I gave my Granddaughter my old Cuttlebug to get her started). Thanks so much for the great demo. I have avoided shaker cards due to the extreme stickiness of the foam tape. Hope you can get the Platinum unstuck. Just saw the additional diamomds. Yeah. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
I killed my mini empress at Christmas this past year, so I can empathize! I used Christmas $$ to replace even though in terms of time, it didn’t last but a year, because in terms of use, I had a good 36 months out of it. I cut a LOT of dies.
Another very pretty card👌TFS. Whilst I am typing this comment your die cutting tip#4 about putting square dies in the machine at an angle has just popped up on my iPad 😳 I think we are being watched😂😂😂 Hope you get your dies out of the machine eventually 🥰🥰
Lovely card! Sorry about your die cutting machine. I broke my Spellbinders machine too. I bought another one but I am hesitate to use it sometimes. I have had better luck with my Sizzix machine.
I love these kind of cards gorgeous. I’ve got the platinum 6 which I love the sidekick which I love the big shot foldaway and the spellbinder scout tbh I don’t know why I bought them but a gal can’t have too many accessories 🤣🤣x
Very nice card Christine. Shame about your machine. I was noticing when you used the cuttlebug which is what I use that you had the die on top facing down onto the card. I always thought you had to have the card on top of the die and the die facing up. Obviously does not matter. Makes it easier your way. Thanks as always Christine. I’m sure the recipients will be very pleased. ❤🇦🇺
@@Chrissieannie thanks Christine. It was the instructions on the machine that said die facing up It is easier your way as you say you can see. Maybe it’s the old cuttlebug dies that make a difference to how you place it. Thankyou Ill give your way a shot maybe not with a cuttlebug die. 😂
@@Chrissieannie yes Christine the old ones said cutting die up with card on top. So I’ve never dared to try the hundreds of newer ones without the foam. Thankyou Christine that is solved. . But I will try now I’ve seen you. ❤🇦🇺
I don’t decorate, sometimes I add an insert which might be printed with a client’s requested text, but generally I prefer to leave the inside of Card blank for the sender’s personal hand written message.
Beautiful card! Sorry about the cutting machine. I’ve had my Big shot for awhile now and have learned to never force it. At least you had back up! Still turned out wonderful!❤❤❤
beautiful card! The additional diamonds really made it! I felt the same way when I forced my first Cuttlebug too far! You keeping asking yourself, "why did I do that"?
Beautiful white on white and sparkles. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome😊😊😊
I'm sure they will love the card.
I like the fringing technique you used on the foam tape
Thanks so much!
Beautiful! And I'm glad it's not only me who changes things up as the process of designing a card progresses. The finished article is sure to please its recipients 💕

Well that was a trying crafting session my friend! Beautiful result in the end and I love the white with ivory.
We got there in the end🤣🤣🤣

Thank you so much 😊
Life has it's challenges, lol ❤
So true 🤣
You did so well Christine to recover from your disaster! I hope you can save your machine. Gorgeous card as usual, thank you.🥰
The machine has had it but I did manage to extricate my plates and dies !😊😊😊
Love this card, well done for carrying on in true British style lol.😊❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Oh dear, that also happened to me. The Spellbinder machine is easy to take apart. Hidden screws under all the little white caps. My gear inside had fallen out, however there was also a plastic cylinder that had broken.

I’m sure the recipients will be very pleased. ❤🇦🇺
Either way works, I always prefer Die facing down as it's easier to see where you are cutting. The other way up sometimes gives a cleaner cut!
@@Chrissieannie thanks Christine. It was the instructions on the machine that said die facing up It is easier your way as you say you can see. Maybe it’s the old cuttlebug dies that make a difference to how you place it. Thankyou Ill give your way a shot maybe not with a cuttlebug die. 😂
@@PAM-ud9lv are you thinking of the thick ones with the foam in? I think they are best cutting side up!
@@Chrissieannie yes Christine the old ones said cutting die up with card on top. So I’ve never dared to try the hundreds of newer ones without the foam. Thankyou Christine that is solved. . But I will try now I’ve seen you. ❤🇦🇺
@ the thin dies need one B plate and one C plate on your base plate.
Beautiful card! Hopefully your machine can be saved.
I'd just like to rescue the things it's keeping hold of!🤣🤣
Lovely!

Beautiful card x
🤍🤍🤍
Absolutely gorgeous!❤
I was wondering if you ever decorate the inside of the card?
I don’t decorate, sometimes I add an insert which might be printed with a client’s requested text, but generally I prefer to leave the inside of Card blank for the sender’s personal hand written message.
Awesome! ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks 🤗
Beautiful card! Have you done or know of a class on using the computer for the sentiments….i admire your skill in that!
No, have you seen the tutorials I have done. There’s a playlist of computer tutorials on my channel !
I will watch now…. NEw to you today…..love you!
@@Joellencox wonderful! Welcome🥰
Really lovely design and so sorry to hear your Spellbinders died mid-project.
So sad !
Beautiful card! Sorry about the cutting machine. I’ve had my Big shot for awhile now and have learned to never force it. At least you had back up!
Still turned out wonderful!❤❤❤
Thanks 🤍🤍🤍
Gorgeous card! Hope you will be able to save your machine or at least get it apart for your dies and plate.
I would just like to rescue the stuff stuck in it!😊
Absolutely gorgeous card, sorry about your machine though. Hope you can get it fixed 🎉x
Thanks so much 😊
Good thinking…bah about your machine.thanks
Exactly 🤦♀️
Another beautiful card. 💌 I love the idea of the roman numerals too. Which font did you use?
The Roman numerals I believe are Calibri
@@Chrissieannie thanks, which did you use for the script?

beautiful card! The additional diamonds really made it! I felt the same way when I forced my first Cuttlebug too far! You keeping asking yourself, "why did I do that"?
It’s strange that the plates were half way through when it broke !☹️
Gorgeous card Christine I hope you can save your machine 😬
I'll investigate
You can try using a rubber mallet to get the plates out of the machine…don’t ask me how I know🤭😊
I’ve undone a bunch of screws, I think I may have to find a few more as it’s still in one piece !
