Card making video tutorials focusing on clear stamps, Copic coloring, and patterned paper mixing using all the hottest companies on the market including Lawn Fawn, Hello Bluebird, My Favorite Things, Avery Elle, Mama Elephant, and more.
I love summer too; living in So California it’s nearly year round 😊. Do you stamp more than one “copy”? I tend to stamp 2 or 3 just in case I change my mind while coloring. Thanks for sharing! Safe travels!
That sounds heavenly, although I do think I would miss the seasons changing. I only stamp an extra copy if I wasn’t happy with one of the images or if it’s an important video with a lot of images and I want a back up. But I’ve learned that I can usually save any image so I don’t do it all the time. Thanks for watching!☺️
Looking forward to seeing the card you end up making! A friend gifted me an Altenew Stamp conditioner eraser and that works well getting off the new stamp residue also.
I love your plan a card with me videos and this one promises to be fantastic! I love these little monkeys, they are so fun to color and work with. I cant wait to see your card come together. It looks, simply, adorable. I think the banana patterned paper is looking so fun and cheerful, your images are super cute and your arches die looks super cute. You always put out amazing content and I am so grateful for your channel. Thank you for sharing your talents and creativity with us. Have a beautiful and blessed week! Take care my sweet, beautiful crafty friend. Sending you big hugs and lots of love!
Thank you, Rose! I was really happy with how this one turned out so I hope you all will like it too! Thanks so much for watching and for sharing your encouragement! I appreciate you!🥰 Have a great week!
Hi Christy, Thanks for sharing your ideas on putting a card together! Those little monkeys are so cute! I'm really looking forward to seeing the video on Friday! Take care. 🌴🍌🐒🍌
How cool that you lived in Africa! it's on my bucket list to visit! I'm not quite to fall cards yet but I am working on craft fair items as I have my first craft fair in a month. Can't wait to see this card finished, so cute!
How fun! I hope the craft fair goes well for you!☺️ I used to do those back in the day when I made jewelry, before I got into card making. Thanks so much for watching!
@christygetscrafty He's writing & illustrating a children's book & he wanted to watch your video to watch you do your shading & coloring to refresh his memory.
How smart to put the pattern paper near you as you colour to match it. What beautiful colouring. I always appreciate you showing what colours you use. Thank you
No one, & I mean no one can bring characters to life better than you!! Critters that look simple & plain to the unprofessional eye (me), become absolutely adorable when you’re done with them!
G'Day Christy! Thanks for sharing this wonderful card! Your critters are coloured beautifully! They look so cheery and content, maybe they've just had a lunch of yabbies, grass and Eucalyptus leaves, respectively! (Even the little Kiwi looks like he's had some fat little insects to eat!) 🦐🌿🌱🪳
Aw, thanks! I’m going to have to google “yabbies” that’s a new term for me! So glad you enjoyed these cuties! I can’t wait to feature the kiwi on the front of a card someday.☺️
Totally adorable card! Thank you for sharing how you come up with your color choices for your critters. It’s so helpful as I continue to learn coloring techniques for the various color blends. Love all of your videos ❤️
I love this card!!! Your images are super cute and adorable. I love your coloring, those critters really came to life once you finished giving them color, cut them out and arranged them on the card. They are super sweet and fun. I love your patterned paper selection and I love your inked background, it looks really fun and cheerful. Your sentiment is awesome and I love where you placed everything on your card. You are such an inspiration and are so creative. Thank you for sharing your talents and gifts with us. You mean so much to this community and I am so grateful for you. I appreciate all of the time and effort you put into this channel and for the amazing woman you are. I hope you have a terrific weekend! Sending big hugs and lots of love. Take care my sweet, crafty friend!
Aw, thanks, Rose! I am so thrilled you enjoyed this card. I so appreciate your support and encouragement. Thank you so much for being here, my friend! Have a wonderful weekend!💖
They won't show up there unless you've clicked the notification bell. I hate that RU-vid no longer just shows us what we subscribed to, but requires another step to actually see that content in our feed. I do appreciate you being here! Thanks for watching!
Such a sweet and fun card!!! I love your coloring, it is stunning! I love your little red squirrel. So cute and cheerful. I cant wait to get mine, I ordered on the 24th but no mention of when it will be shipped, hopefully soon. Your card is such great inspiration. I love everything about this sweet card. There are free libraries all over my part of Maryland and I think this stamp set seems really versatile. I love seeing what you create, it is so motivating and you are so inspiring. Thank you for sharing your talents and creativity with us. Your channel is such a bright spot in my day. Have a fantastic week! Sending you lots of love and big, giant hugs.
I hope your order will arrive soon, Rose! I’m sure you will have the best time playing with the new goodies. And thank you so much for your kind words. You’re the best! I’m so happy you’re here!🥰
I just found your channel on RU-vid, but I will definitely be watching your videos. I love the Happy Harvest set and can't wait to see what you do with the girl version!!
I also love to read. The little library was my favorite stamp set from this lawn fawn release. Just curious about what you are reading now. I’m reading All the Colors of the Dark. 😊
I’ve heard that one is good! Is it really scary though? I don’t read a lot of thrillers because I’m a total scardey-pants. I just started reading The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea by Axie Oh. I don’t read a ton of fantasy either but I’ve been dipping my toes in the genre from time to time lately and this one sounded intriguing and it has such a pretty cover. lol. I just finished the first chapter last night, so we’ll see how it goes!📚☺️
I don't know if this is something that's done all over the world, but within the last few years tiny free libraries have popped up all over Germany. They're usually some kind of enclosed shelf (sometimes built from reclaimed materials like old windows) filled with books that people don't want anymore. The reason I bring it up is because there is one near me that looks so much like the one in this stamp set! It is in a rural area and now I'm imagining animals gathering there to read books when no one is watching. 😂
How cool that they have them In Germany too! There is a company who makes the official Little Free Librarys that you can order the structure from here in the states, which looks like the one in the stamp set, but you can also make your own out of anything that will hold books and keep them dry from the weather. I didn’t realize they had expanded into Europe, but I will definitely keep my eye out for them on my upcoming trip! I love that anyone can help spread the joy of reading!💕📖
@@christygetscrafty ooooh I didn't know it's a real product! Around me they seem to be made from reclaimed materials by creative people, but a quick Google search has revealed that the actual Little Free Libraries can be found in Germany. Such an amazing concept and I love that lawn fawn has created a stamp set based on it.
I am fairly new to your channel and I wanted to tell you how much LOVE your cards and videos. Thank you so much for sharing them. I have been learning so much and getting so many great ideas. 💖
What kind of cardstock do you use for the ink blending? I haven’t had good luck with the ones I’ve used and use the distressed oxides and Tim holz’s watercolor cardstock. I use the blending brushes and mine just looks splotchy. You said Bristol smooth so was hoping for more details. Thanks!!! Great video!!
Yep, Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock from Strathmore is what I use and love for ink blending. It’s coated on the surface so the ink glides smoothly on it. I highly recommend!😊
Such a cute card! I just bought this set and can’t wait to make a card with it. I have a friend who is a librarian and she just moved to NH from OR for her new job. I want to send her a fun card? Your card is giving me great inspiration. Thanks for being so amazing! ❤🤗
