Beautiful card! I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned it but poinsettias are actually a tropical flower, originating in Mexico and Central America, we just turned them into Christmas flowers because of their color. Love your videos, thanks for sharing.
LOL! You're right - and I knew that, it was buried deep in my brain! I remember my grandma (also named Ardyth) telling me that. Thanks for a great memory! Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful card! It's worthy to note that all tape runner adhesives are pressure-sensitive, meaning that pressure is needed to activate the adhesive so it becomes permanent. Pressure from your hand or a bone folder does the job.
This card speaks to me greatly! I love pink! The florals are so pretty! I have to say I know there’s nothing I can do about it, but I wish I could get familiar with my Catherine Pooler inks. I love how you never have to guess and know just what you want and get what you want. I’ve never even used them in a stencil but we know how little I’ve used those too. Someday I’d all I can hope. I have all the reinkers so I hope that will give me the life I need.
Dark gray also works - I felt like the warmth of the brown better suited this project, but normally my go-to would be grey for a soft look. Thanks for watching!
Your card was so beautiful. I hope she appreciated it. I found the same thing with tape runners and I barely use them anymore. Once you get used to liquid I think it’s the way to go.
Someone else mentioned that you need to add pressure for tape runners to become really permanent - I'm going to try it out! Thanks so much for watching!
My children learned what a prototype is from me insisting on making one before I started on my holiday cards. When my youngest went to college, I would sent her that one but I tell that now that she's married, she rates the real deal. I love that you are using the Magicals. I've been neglecting mine. Time to get them out. I don't think I've smooshed them. I usually use them more like watercolors. You created a really beautiful card. I hope she loved it.
I always hope my first card will be perfect lol! But I'm ok doing it again if needed! Definitely a good idea when you're making lots of the same one! Thanks so much for watching!
I love my Nuvo glue, partly because I love the beautiful bottle! I’ve tried several other glues but Nuvo Deluxe is by far my favourite. Gorgeous card too. I feel it’s much harder to make a card for a specific occasion! I do it for all the cards I make for a particular person, rather than grab one from my stash of completed cards. I now sell my other cards at markets,because there’s only so many I can make for ‘no reason’!
LOL! I find it hard to make specific cards, too, so I do shop my stash of cards for birthdays , Christmas and thank yous, but weddings, baby and sympathy are generally custom-made for the specific person. Thanks so much for watching!
@@ardyth I have 20 grandkids from my 4 children so I’m kept pretty busy with ‘one off’ cards! Thank you for the awesome techniques you share and the huge amount of work you out into editing your videos. I really appreciate it!
Yes..a specific card for a special person IS different.....welcome to our world. Lol Loved your card and the explanations - always wonderful and helpful. Thank you.😊
What a beautiful card!! I love how you created the base layer, then utilized that stencil. Yup, really love it!! Congrats to the happy couple! Thanks for the great inspiration!! 🧑🏼🎨😀👏🏻👏🏻
...and a very special video! Both cards version 1.0 and 1.1 are lovely and I'm sure the one you gave will be a keepsake for the bride. It IS so nice to be able to create something with a special person in mind.
Have you tried the precision glue press? I noticed your bearly arts glue was in the correct shape for it and wondered where you found it. Mines round and I’d have to pour it into the extra bottle they give you. Sometimes it gets tough to squeeze the glue but it’s a high ticket item for what it is. I think. For Pete’s sake it’s not a high tech device and $35 is a lot. But I see a lot of ppl using it. Just wanted your thoughts. I also checked the lazy Susan. Great idea but also very high priced for what it is. You get your moneys worth, but I couldn’t. I checked 12” lazy Susan’s on Amazon so maybe if I ever get the real time to start creating I’ll grab a turntable. Fantastic card! I’d love to get a birthday card this pretty!
I did not have luck with the precision glue press. I do not have any arthritis or issues with squeezing the bottles directly, and I found the grip just too big for my hand or something. I didn't find it comfortable and I didn't feel like I had as much control with the glue as I do when I'm not using the press. I know other people love it, and that's good - it just wasn't for me. But I am definitely taking advantage of the bottles that came with it! Thanks for watching, Denise!
Such a pretty card, Ardith!!! Don't you like the glue press? I recognized the bottles. I love mine. Makes it so much easier, when I have trouble squeezing the bottle. Thank you and take care.
Thanks so much! I found the glue press too big for my hand, and felt like I had less control than just using the bottles. But I know different people need different things and I'm glad it's working so well for you! And I am definitely making use of the bottles! lol! Thanks for watching!
I have wanted to try the magicals prinkled on the glass with water since you did the card summit! I really liked how you taped off the area so you knew where your area was. I just have Neenah 110# cover weight and index. Do you think hammerMill is much better for more than one technique that index can’t do? I use the cover weight for bases, panels, die cuts, but index for paints on the gel press. The rare occasion I do it. I can tell this is going to be beautiful. Pink is my favorite color!
I did this with the 110# and like watercolour paper, the colours just didn't move as much, but it was still very pretty. I use #110 for card bases, Hammermill 100 for most of my card panels, and index for most of my gel printing. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Yes, yes I did (that's my story and I'm sticking with it! lol!) It wasn't really on purpose but it didn't bother me either - I think the effect works well with natural elements like these leaves. Thanks for watching!
Idk why magicals doesn’t sell all of them in shakers but they should sell the empty ones for sure! I wonder if Amazon would have something you could use. And put all of them in. But probably more hassle.
That bottle and tip came with the Precision Glue press (the label came off my Bearly Art refill). Not sure if it's available elsewhere. That bottle is really for Tonic Nuvo glue, so it might be worth looking on a Tonic site? Thanks for watching!
I've been slowly converting to liquid glue too... i haven't tried nuvo yet... does it dry matte? Cuz I need a truly invisible glue.. or glasses 😂 Your custom card is beautiful!! I am mostly a custom card maker and i need to remember the inside and the envelope too!
I just leave my glasses off then I can't tell if there's extra glue or not! lol! I am finding that the Nuvo glue (which was my favourite because it didn't clog, even without a pin) is thicker than the Bearly Art glue. I think I prefer the thinner. But I have not let them dry to see if they're matte. hmmm. let me do that now... Thanks so much for watching!

Very pretty! And I too learned that glue is a better choice, when some of my cards fell apart. 😊
Thanks so much for watching!
What a beautiful card and envelope! The wee piece inside really pops. I'm happy to see the larger format.
I liked it more than I thought I would! lol! Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful card! Thanks for sharing your love of card making! I'm glad you had such a wonderful occasion. attached to this card!
Thanks so much for watching!
Wow what an awesome card!! I love how it turned out and those pics from the shower looked amazing!
Thanks so much! 😊
Gorgeous card!! 🩷 Congratulations to the recipient! 🎉
Thanks so much! 😊
I think this is one of the best cards I have ever seen you make. It is gorgeous. I loved the colors. Good job.
Thanks so much 😊
Ardyth, you're right! It is dreamy! Such a beautiful card.
Thanks so much for watching!

Ah! Thank you! I will give that a try! Thanks so much for watching!
I've had taperunner cards come apart after an extended time, no matter how much pressure, so only use liquid glue!
@@enelson3293 good to know. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful card 🥰 I love your color choices, the stencil and the sentiment ❤️ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Thank you so much!
Beautiful.
Would be great to see more special cards, one by one!!!
Noted! Thanks so much for watching!
Wow stunning card. I don't think I remember seeing you make only one card -- but it is great. Thanks so much. 😉🇨🇦
haha! I usually like to have lots of examples. Thanks for watching!
What a beautiful card Ardyth!
What a wonderful story and CARD! Lovely
Thank you so much!
I'm sure the recipient loved it! I need to remember to pull out my stencils. Most under used product in my craft room.
And the most versatile - so many ways to use them! I need to remember to use mine more as well! Thanks so much for watching!
Lovey card with soft colors.
Thanks so much 😊
What a BEAUTIFUL card..thanks for showing the inside and envelope..congrats to your special bride.
Thanks so much for watching!
What a lovely card Ardyth. The course are gorgeous. I tend to make cards for special people/occasions rather than batch make. Yvonne
Thanks so much 😊
That is so beautiful, the colors are so soft and dreamy! I really love it!! 😍
Thank you so much!
Lovely, soft card! So nice to see you make one, 5x7 card, which is exactly how I make mine.

That is so pretty! I really love those two colors together!
Thank you so much!
Gorgeous card, Ardyth, and fun technique!
Thanks so much!
Lovey card. Brown instead of black for the sentiment was genius. I will be using this wonderful tip.

I also make prototypes for bulk holiday cards. Saves a lot of time.
I always hope my first card will be perfect lol! But I'm ok doing it again if needed! Definitely a good idea when you're making lots of the same one! Thanks so much for watching!
Such a pretty card💖 I like to say I am auditioning a design! I do this more for holiday cards because I make a few different designs.
I wish you very talented artists would do more 5x7
I may - it's a nice size! Thanks so much for watching!
Lovely card. Thanks for sharing. I'm just getting serious about cardmaking, so I'm so happy you explain ALL the supplies you use.
Welcome! Let me know if you have any questions, I'm happy to help! Thanks so much for watching!

I love the colored background! Inspiring 🤩
Thanks so much 😊
So pretty! Love the tip on using brown ink for a softer look.
Thanks so much! 😊 Gray is another option - I figured the brown fit in with the warmth more than gray would. Thanks so much for watching!

Did you leave some of the die cut part in on purpose? That’s an effect I never thought about before!
Yes, yes I did (that's my story and I'm sticking with it! lol!) It wasn't really on purpose but it didn't bother me either - I think the effect works well with natural elements like these leaves. Thanks for watching!
Idk why magicals doesn’t sell all of them in shakers but they should sell the empty ones for sure! I wonder if Amazon would have something you could use. And put all of them in. But probably more hassle.
They come sealed under the lid and I need to remember to poke a hole in that seal rather than ripping it off. It's my own fault! lol!
Can I ask where you got the precision tip bottle for the Bearly Art glue? I haven’t found that shape or size on the websites you linked.
That bottle and tip came with the Precision Glue press (the label came off my Bearly Art refill). Not sure if it's available elsewhere. That bottle is really for Tonic Nuvo glue, so it might be worth looking on a Tonic site? Thanks for watching!
