@@ardyth yes! It must be because I love the birds. Unless you did another bird video. I bought the wrong ones then. I got the birds without the winter accessories. But this is perfect! Thank you so much Ardyth! You’re the best!
Hi Ardyth. Thank you for showing us all the new tricks. I love your birds. I like your idea of adding a wing to the bird to make it look like it is flying. I also like how you can reverse a die by running it through the die cutter to flatten it.
Lovely cards - and so interesting to think about all the things you do automatically with a little experience under your belt. Looking forward to seeing you on Craft Roulette Live later! :-)
Cute! Thanks for the reminder that there are two sides of every die cut. But the blue birds front wing is upside down. It needed to be colored on the other side.
Haha! I know that feeling - I live in Canada and face similar issues. If it's a product I can't get in Canada, I generally just figure I would have had to pay tax on it if I did buy it here in Canada, but it's definitely not very convenient or pleasant! Thanks so much for watching!
Hi Ardyth 👋 Awesome design work! 👍 I love all the cards. Those techniques and cute little birds are perfect together. Thanks for sharing! 😀 Happy Crafting ✂️ God Bless You and Keep You Safe 🙏
I always cut apart my stamps at an angle too! Or even a notch if it fits! For the scalloped rectangle, use partial die cutting and it will be perfect! I did this with a stitched rectangle just a few days ago! Love these tips! I don’t even think about them when I do them but they are truly mini techniques!
OMG those birds are soooo cute! I love images of animals that are not totally realistic but also not totally cartoonish. These fall into that sweet spot!
Loved those bird dies and eyelet lace die. Really like I can use them anytime, or include the cute accessories as desired. Your coloring of them is lovely and inspiring.Just ordered both. Thanks Ardyth❤
Yes, I squish my sharp die edges that happen when I make them with the scan n cut, works a treat. I reverse my images too. I also stack my dies 4 or 5 deep, squish them in the die cutter and then hot foil right on top of them, no hot foil plate needed.
Right off the bat I love the way you colored these birds! It really looked like a cardinal and robin! So cute! It’s a good set to add to my dies. I’m not a bird person but they look so cute on cards! Great job again!
I noticed how wonderfully those little pieces stayed in place to ink blend too! I used my waffleflower mat today in my stamp positioner and I liked it!
Love the "cut on an angle" stamp surgery tip! I have done stamp surgery because I often like my sentiments stacked but I'll be using this tip in the future. I use Tim Holtz's remnant rub tool instead of a pokey tool. It accomplishes the same tasks but there's absolutely NO danger of poking holes in anything. (Thank you, Tim!) And, of course, I love how your cards turned out.
You are so talented, I could watch you for hours!! Thank you for sharing your talent. I love those birds, so, so cute! Is that a gel plate you are using to keep small die cuts in place, or a sticky mat? I haven't yet purchased a sticky mat and wondered if my gel plate might work too.
I have a gel plate and a few of the sticky mats. I have used the sticky mat as a gel plate and I've tried to use the gel plate as a sticky mat. They are not the same and they are not totally interchangeable, both do their job better than the other, but they both do the other job pretty well. Definitely give it a try with the gel plate. Wow, that was a long way of getting there! lol! Thanks for your kind words and for watching!
All GREAT ideas!!! Was that the Waffle Flower mat you were using to hold your die cuts? I will definitely have to add one to my collection!!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!❤
Yes that was a Waffle Flower mat - I'm finding them to be very useful. If you have a StampWheel, their sticky mat works in a very similar way. Thanks for watching!
Great video, and your birds are amazing! Regarding a non pokey tool…I recommend The Scotty Peeler! I have several in different spots in my craft room, and would be lost without them. This tool works perfectly to peel up a piece of cardstock from your sticky mat. It’s rounded, but perfectly flat on the bottom. Helps dislodge stubborn pieces from dies without tearing. Am I allowed to tell you where I purchase mine? They are less expensive than you’d think!
Those birds are just adorable! I really love how you colored them!
Thank you so much!
You show how versatile these sets are. I didn't know about cutting on a angle. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks so much for watching!
These are just so dang cute! Thanks for sharing!

LOL! I like it the way it is. Thanks for watching!
I love the birds and the bright colors you used on the cards. Great information as always!
Thanks so much!
I love cutting my stamps apart! Been doing that one a long time. Your skill in inks is just outstanding! I have barely used mine!
Thanks so much!
They are beautiful!
Thanks so much!
I like your results and you’re right, I don’t really think of those as techniques.
Thanks so much for watching!
Very nice, thank you for the share...
Thanks for watching!
Great techniques and designs. Love your videos Ardyth - you get right to the point.
I appreciate that! Thanks so much for watching!
I can never have too many birds!
Another way I’ve got rid of that ridge when flipping a die cut over is to use my bone folder.
That's a great tip! Thanks so much for watching!
Love that bird die set, sadly if I order from the USA, I'll have to pay import taxes and what not, so I'll just dream of the set lol
Haha! I know that feeling - I live in Canada and face similar issues. If it's a product I can't get in Canada, I generally just figure I would have had to pay tax on it if I did buy it here in Canada, but it's definitely not very convenient or pleasant! Thanks so much for watching!

OMG those birds are soooo cute! I love images of animals that are not totally realistic but also not totally cartoonish. These fall into that sweet spot!
I agree and you can make them more or less of either by how you colour them. Thanks for watching!
These are amazing.
Thank you!
Loved those bird dies and eyelet lace die. Really like I can use them anytime, or include the cute accessories as desired. Your coloring of them is lovely and inspiring.Just ordered both. Thanks Ardyth❤
Thanks so much! I agree that they are 'year round' products and I really appreciate when you use my links!
Another great tip on centering the frame mask! So smart!
Using a slightly nontradional colour Christmas palette kicks things up a notch. So pretty and super cute!
Thanks for watching!
Love those trees!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Really pretty cards!

oh wow, that sounds interesting with the hot foil! So clever! Thanks for watching!
@@ardyth your shiny foil will have a more burnished foil look but it's a great technique
@@WendyColeArt cool! I'll have to try it!
This year we're seeing a lot of untraditional Christmas and fall colors - I LOVE it! ❤ Your birds are adorable Ardyth!❣️💕
Thanks so much for watching!

Such cute little birds! Love that you gave the robin a girlfriend!
Thank you! 😊
Love the card's
Thank you!
Could you rotate that scallop die 90º for a second pass to get a square?
I have never done it that way, but I think it would work! You clever thing! Thanks for watching!
