Hi! My name is Laura and in my channel I share card making, art journaling and a little mixed media. I love creating cards and want to share some of my ideas with you :)
I took up card making at the start of lockdown in 2020 and I have been hooked ever since! I love trying different techniques and styles and love to think outside the box. I also love to be able to use products in as many ways as possible. I use a variety of mixed media, die cutting, heat embossing, ink blending and stamping techniques.
I hope you enjoy my videos and that you get inspired to have a go too!
@Meerkat Makes by L • Laura: I really love the use of the stencil to create a washi or paper strip image. I have a stock of washi tape that I love but haven't thought of ways to use them. So, your technique is perfect for me. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and creative vision. 👍
I'm so glad to hear it! So glad you found my video helpful and glad it's given you some inspiration ☺️ thank you for watching and taking the time to leave me a comment ☺️ I really appreciate it!
Aw thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave me a comment ☺️ I really appreciate it and I'm so glad you enjoyed my video! Thanks for subscribing too! Happy crafting!
Thank you so much! Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave me a comment ☺️ you could do this with any size die that you have in your stash 🙂
@meerkatmakesbyl-cardsbylaura yes, I've done it with a tonic stained glass style one before. I just took a liking to that die design, but it's an odd size for the UK. If it was an even amount all the way round you could add it to a 7x5, but the gap isn't even on both dimensions. It's a really pretty design.
Absolutely beautiful Laura, three gorgeous cards. I really enjoyed the different ideas of how to use these tapes and as you say easily adapted for patterned paper strips (of which I have many!) I have also just recently started using Bearly Art glue and really like it….I treated myself to one of the My Sweet Petunia Glue Presses because I have trouble with arthritis in my hands and have found the combination of the Bearly Art glue and the glue press really good. Thank you for sharing and 3 beautiful cards. ❤😘
Thank you so much for watching Orla! So glad you liked the finished cards and I hope it's given you some inspiration of ways you can use up your paper strips too! Great to hear about how your finding the glue too! That's so helpful to know.
