Natalie, first time seeing your video. Awesome. I’m a seasoned card maker and yet, you have tips and hacks I’ve not seen before. Thanks so much. ❤❤❤ now o. To watch more of your videos.😊
OMGoodness! You are so creative, Natalie. Your tutorial is excellent for showing us how to use what we have. I am so grateful that you are not telling us to run and buy this and that. I am far more inspired to watch your video and run into my craft room and create. Thank you.
Apart from your gorgeous card-making ideas, the thing I love about your channel is that you're never pushing the newest, greatest, must-have crafting supply. It genuinely is 'use what you have' wherever and whenever possible! Thank you ❤️
You are a breathe of fresh air. I absolutely LOVE❤ your style. I have been enjoying replicating your cards for friends and charities in need. They are absolutely stunning. I am starting to re-use my gilding flakes, dies and inks so much more now. Thank You for inspiring me. I am so glad I found your site. Happy crafting. Marie (Western Australia).
Natalie, I'm just amazed at how creative you are! I don't know how you think of all these things? I forget to use so many things I've learned or thought of one time or another!? Your creativity is simply brilliant and I find myself looking anxiously for a new video from you every day! These ideas today were just fantastic but I've found that I can't say there has EVER been a piece you've made that I haven't LOVED - just crazy good stuff!! 💕❤
Hi Natalie. I am always truly amazed at the ideas you come up with and I learn so much from you. This is something I would not have thought of but will have fun trying. Thanks so much. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
Beautiful card great way to use the dies you've already got I'll be getting mine out more. I've got MS so cardmaking is my lifeline that and caravanning both together and that's my happy place. So glad i found your channel. X Alison. X
Wonderful ideas. And I love the finished butterfly card. It’s really very lovely. So glad I found your channel (a few weeks ago now). I love your videos.
Wow! You are a one girl ideas machine. Just love how your thoughts flow from one idea to another and how you connect to other bits in your stash. Thanks for yet another great tutorial and for sharing your talents with us.
Natalie, this is a wonderful idea!!! Anything with butterflies is my favorite!! I really appreciate you showing all the different ways to make your own apertures!! This is so very helpful!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
I'm really enjoying your videos. Its refreshing to see new ideas with stash most of us crafters already have and not feel we have to buy something new to achieve the same results. Thank you for your time and effort.
Thanks Natalie! This technique wouldn't have occurred to me - now I am searching through my stash of small dies. Perfect timing too, as I am 'trying' to develop a new design for Valentine's Day cards!
Hello! Not sure where I've been but am just now seeing your TH-cam Video's. I am so fascinated/Intrigued by your creativity. I absolutely love watching your Video's. Thank You!!!

Some friends and I are getting together this week to share tips and tricks we’ve found useful. Already we were going to spend time on using aperture’s or negative space from dies. And now your tutorial has given me so many more ideas. Thank you!!

WOW Natasha. How clever are you. I really love your videos and the different ways you come up with to use what you have. I’m on a no buy year so am really appreciating these videos.
