Love the faux foiling ,and the distressed ink properties explained. They were very helpful. But truthfully all your tips are terrific. Thanks for all you share with us.😊❤
Dear Lou, you have, in the short time that I have been watching your videos, fast become my favourite crafter❣️ This video has totally cemented you in the No. 1 Best Crafter of ALL Time spot. Not only are you a good teacher, your tips and advice are so incredibly practical. Thank you for this outstanding video💝💖❣️
Which is my fave?? My mind is swimming! And I’ve been paper crafting for decades!! I have saved this video as a favorite, and will need to go back and take notes. I love your no-nonsense, no-chatter form of instruction. Thanks so much!
I love all the tips. I think the only one I hadn't seen was the glue hack, but I lov3d seeing them all again as a refresher. Thanks for all your great videos. ❤
Your glue dot hack is pure genius. It's so simple now that you demonstrate it and I smack my forehead wondering why I didn't think of it....of course I'm not a crafting genius!...so there's that! Thanks Lou
I think the one I never knew was the hot glue dot. Ingenious. Great idea to share these at the end of the year. We tend to forget about these hacks when we struggle with certain projects. Thanks for the reminders. ❤️from 🇨🇦
I’ve seen so many rip videos that are just not that useful, but THIS VIDEO is chock full of great ideas I hadn’t thought of ! You are one of my favs thanks for all you do!
Wow, great video! #6, making an easel card when you have glued your top layer upside down, genius! #8, ink blending through the negative die to create a shadow layer, brilliant and beautiful!! 💕 Keep the videos coming!!
I wish I had known that tip when I made a very detailed card for my daughter in law, and realised too late that I had put it on upside down. I'd done it on a separate piece and really stuck it down with tape and wet glue 😲 and I couldn't take it off without damage. Thankfully, my daughter in law has a great sense of humour and saw the funny side. She told me that I made unique cards and that she had kept every one from me over the years.
I’d never seen the hot glue dot tip that is genius, I’ve never been told to die-cut upside down I’m going to try that on a few I’ve struggled with in the past!! I’ve never tried to embedded foil cardstock hack but ai saw you do it before and have been meaning to do it myself so credit goes to you even though it wasn’t from this video, and I’ve never thought of or seen the idea for using the die-cut waste as a stencil to color in behind the die if you don’t have the solid outline die to match, that is also just genius. This was a fantastic tip video for me, 2 thumps up !!
Hi Lou haven’t ever seen the hot glue hack. Seems great and also the one with the foiling. I never even realised that foiling was indented or debossed in that way. Ha ha. Thanks!
Dried glue dots and reheated is my favorite tip. Countless times that will come in handy. Thanks for all the great tips! I’m a new subscriber to your channel.
Love the hot glue tip, no more burnt fingers and stringy glue! Also the foiling technique and using the die cut out for colouring. Thanks for sharing ❤
There are too many there that are brilliant to choose one from!! I haven't seen about half of those. Looking forward to the next year of crafting with you. 💗💗💗
Wow, Lou, I have been card making for well over three decades and I do watch a lot of TH-cam tutorials - but these hacks were practically all new to me and just genius! Thank you so much! Kind regards from Germany, Nicola
My favourite hack was using the leftover card from the butterfly as a stencil. The adding of the colour was an amazing hack and totally changed the look of the actual die cut ✂️ x
The glue gun "glue dots" is simply brilliant and #9 for cutting intricate dies....another one that I did not know about!!! Loved all but the two I had never heard about are #1 and #9 and I am so excited about trying them out! Thanks so much for sharing!
Great to have all these tips in one video. Thanks for doing this video. The hot glue tip is my favourite with the embossing with dies a close second. But they are all fab. 💕
Lou, these are all brilliant hacks!!! Hard to puck favourites...glue drops, die cutting die up, and the butterfly one are probably mine. Thank you so much!
Loved all your tips, but especially the the tips about die cutting, using glue dots, fake foiling and fixing cards. Thank you! 😃👍. Look forward to more tips in the future.
I do like the hot glue dot idea. Sometimes I need to put the hot glue gun on just the adhere 1 thing in place and it always puts me off (I don't really have a suitable place to put the glue gun to cool down, also, for 1 small job it's time consuming). I'm now thinking I could put my silicone mat on a tray and make glue dots while watching TV- bonus, glue gun can sit on the tray afterwards to cool down 😊
Thanks for sharing these great tips,I have just started using the eraser on new stamps and definitely a game changer!.I have a great tip if in UK,Poundland have a white glue pen (haz to be the white not clear) Wow it stays tacky,So I can mask,foil and glitter,and because it's a chisel top you can write with it 😍
Hi Lou, great tips thannk you, I'll be trying the hot glue tip, not heard of if before, and the heating up to take a topper off, that's in the wrong place. Happy New Year
Love them all…can’t believe I never thought of using the negative to add color behind die cut. BTW…when I used to have access to C&C you were “hot glue Lou”…perfect.
Lou, this is a great video full of lots tips. I love the hot glue drops and butterfly . I will definitely be back to watch more of your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much Lou for the wonderful hints and tips. I love them all but especially like the glue dot idea because I can use that with my little granddaughters 😊
Wow! These are all very useful tips and the only one I've heard before was the final one. Hard to pick a favourite but I love the hot glue dots and the negative space die cut for inking ... brilliant! Thanks so much ❤
Your fabulous hacks are all helpful! My favorite was the foiling tho… it really works well and saves tons of $$, and space in my craft room that would be needed for another tool and plates👍🏻👍🏻. Love your videos, TY!!🧑🏼🎨😀
Love the embedded foil hack the best! Very clever... Pretty much knew most of the others, but nice to review them as I often forget about some of the tricks learned long ago! Love tips and tricks videos...so thank you very much!!
I love the foiling hack, I'm going to use it straight away! The glue is great, too. I always have loads of wasted glue so I won't be throwing it out any more. I thought I'd try heating up the packaged glue dots a good while back. It worked great and now I do it all the time when I just need a little glue.
Couldn't pick a fav. ALL were amazing and so wonderful to know about. You are absolutely adorable!
My favorite of these is the facing up intricate die cut. What a difference that makes!
Love the faux foiling ,and the distressed ink properties explained. They were very helpful. But truthfully all your tips are terrific. Thanks for all you share with us.😊❤
