Oh Marion, you are not alone. Thank you for making such a lovely card and for being inspiring - even if you don't feel it. It's lovely to have you back and look forward to your next video, laughing along with you and being amazed at your latest creation. I'm waiting for a shed load of Wow powders to arrive - can't remember the project I was going to do with them, but I will have a play 😀. Take care.❤
No, you are not alone. I also had a health crisis. Getting back into the groove of things also. Yes, I also have items I haven't used yet. Take care. Always love your videos and honesty. You're a lovely lady.
Oh Marion! You are a delight - mojo on or out to lunch. This is delightful card and doesn't take forever to do. THNK YOU for your wonderful personality and laugh! You made my day!!
Lovely! Mojo is such an easy thing to lose and difficult thing to find! I was just upstairs in my craft space and I couldn't find my mojo anywhere in there. I'm pretty sure that's the last place I left it though. 🤔🤷😂 I also ended up sorting a bunch of stamps and dies that I apparently ordered and then left all willy-nilly on the table. Seriously! I couldn't even recall what I had ordered. It was like Christmas... I was so surprised at everything I was finding. Luckily, some of those stamps and dies found their way to their proper housing location. It's a start.😊 Glad to see you back dear friend.🫂
We all do it, don't we? I'd hate to show you all of the never inked stamps and never cut dies I have! And that old patterned paper! Love your card and how real you are!
Hi Marion great to see you back..we all suffer from creative blocks I’m just the same at the moment…. Great card 😍 don’t worry about anything as we will still be here when you return 🤗 take care xx
So glad you’re back (?). I wondered where you might be, or if I got unsubscribed. I love this card, wasn’t too sure at first, but the end result is great. Thanks Marion see you in the next video.
Thank you so much Marion, I really really enjoyed watching you create this beautiful and stunning card. I too have lost my mojo but, you’ve inspired me to try this out. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤❤
That’s one of your better cards. I think it’s fabulous and I tend to do a lot more on my cards and so I don’t think that the splatter was overdone at all. I think it looks absolutely fantastic. Great job Marion!
Hi Marion it's so good to see you you've been missed I have had a terrible time with being blocked, I have psoriatic arthritis and it's really affected my crafting I want to do stuff but pain interrupts the process. However it doesn't stop me buying craft supplies which I think is a hobby quite separate from the actual crafting! Love the new product I think it will be a great thing for mixed media projects I hope your mojo comes back soon because you are really great at what you do chin up! Xx
Hi Marion, hope you’re feeling better soon. A little tip for gluing intricate die cuts I picked up off UA-cam, use a wide tip glue pen , such as Nuvo or Zig two way 15mm wide tip and run it over the back of your die cut on top of a piece of paper towel. The paper towel will soak up the excess glue and save you getting sticky hands.
Hi Marion. I absolutely love this cards ... and I don't think the splatters were overdone. Thanks so much. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊 PS, quite a few of my things haven't yet been used -- just waiting for the right inspiration. 😊
I lost my mojo and didn’t craft anything for almost 5 yrs and then one day moved everything out of the a room I had it all stored in opened a box that had Susan Tierney dies to make flowers, and I’ve been off and running since. lol so much more to learn but I’m having a blast . Missed your laugh and your fun crafting videos 💜💜💜💜💜💐💐💐💐💐ps went from a 10x 11 room to a 18 x23 ft room yay me lol
I am SO glad you’re ok!!!!! I was quite worried about you and ready to send out a search party! We love you with or without your mojo, and you’re absolutely not alone in not using things you’ve bought. Your card is beautiful, and I think the amount of splatter is just right. ❤️❤️❤️
Oh I know exactly how you've been feeling... It has been 2 months since I have made anything and I feel so guilty because I have so so so many supplies. Your card was beautiful and it really put a little spark under my ass... Thank you!
It’s great to see you again Marion, loosing enthusiasm is pants, saying that the card looks fab. I hope you found enough for a second video 😊😊 I’ve got products that arrive and get stashed, I need to start digging them out!!! Xx
I think you made a lovely card considering how fast and while feeling blah. I hope you feel better soon I know that your crafting mojo is still there to create such a beautiful card in just a few minutes.❤️😊🙏🏻
I love that die set and I loved it so much that I bought the second set that comes with it as well! And I’ve used it a few times which is many dies as I have not even touched that’s remarkable that I’ve used even one day more than once so I’ve gotten a lot of use out of these days. I love them cannot say enough about them. They’re wonderfuland welcome back Marion. I’ve been watching for you.
No your not alone Marion, I've got supplies I bought a few years ago that I still haven't used all because I lost my mojo and confidence to use them. Your card look great!
Hi Marion, I'm glad you're back, and feeling a little better. We all lose our mojo at some point, it'll come back to you. Just be patient and kind to yourself! We'll still be here waiting for your beautiful, funny and talented self. Take care 🥰 Oh, beautiful card! 🤗
Hey Marion, glad your better and that the old grey cells are working again 😆 crafting block gets to everyone but your well worth waiting for as you make fabulous cards and always give us a lift with how you do things. 😂 🥰🇦🇺
Gorgeous card Marion, so lovely t see you. Losing Mojo sucks especially when busy on top of it. Try playing with your favorite products, no pressure, nothing to make, no video to film, just play. I find that helps!
Lovely to see you back , my mojo went on holiday 2 years ago and not come back yet . I got new hobby , buying craft supplies and organs but never using . Hope ur feeling it more soon . Card is gorgeous x
Lovely to see you post a video. Have missed you and your inspiration. You're not alone with mojo at all. About a year ago, my confidence was destroyed by someone. I packed up my crafts and decided that was it. Luckily I have a few good friends who talked me round but it was a good 6 months before I actually made anything. Loved the MMA, although when I first saw them, I thought, "Why has Marion got a pot of crayon shavings" 😂 Hope your mojo is back in full swing soon x
Marion, you are not alone! I am like many of the others whose comments are here. I have supplies stashed away that I have discovered but I have forgotten what I had planned to do with them! It’s like a different kind of addiction! 😘. Thanks for sharing your project. It’s beautiful!
Well, it looks like all of us have all the same troubles! Mojo (or loss thereof), buying & hoarding, forgetting what we were going to use the stuff for, various aches & pains, life is like that! Just yesterday I used some ribbon that had never been opened, that is over 20 years old! I know that because it had my married name on it! Oh well… at least I’m getting to it now! Take care, Marion, you are such a delight & brighten so many of our lives, please don’t despair! Erica❤
Oh, Marion-you are not alone! Sometimes, I get so overwhelmed with all my supplies that I don’t know where to start & so I don’t!!! Lovely card today! Quick question, from what I’m reading, the mixed media additives are not meant to be heated like an embossing powder, correct?
Don't fret, Marion, we will all be here, waiting for as long as it takes! But it must feel right to you! We have all been there.....Your demo is awesome, your MMAs are lush and the leaves look fabulous! You never fail to inspire and create magic! Looking forward to your next video - when you're ready. 🤗xxx
Welcome back we missed you. I am like others who have commented...buying supplies and not getting to using them not remembering what they were for? It is a fabulous card and I look forward to seeing how this affects your mojo and what you come up with next:)
I'm trying to get my craft room organized. Some days I make some progress and other days nothing. I've uncovered some goodies I've never used.... didn't even realize I had some stamps or dies I've had on my wish list. Just taking one day at a time. 🤷♀️🤦♀️ I think your card turned out beautifully.
My brain goes on holidays too. I have all the stuff but no idea where to start . Look how brown tanned you are. ❤ I love your card. Thankyou for challenging yourself well done.
Thank you Kerry, I love that, my brain went on holiday 🤗🤗 I’ve worn short sleeves most of this summer, if you see my legs and belly you’d need sunglasses on, they are so ridiculously bright white 😂😂😂😍😍😍
Thank you for your video. Oh I am with you on the supplies issue 😅. If I am lost with regards to my mojo, I simply watch others create on UA-cam and I soon have some new ideas. But hey , each to their own recovery 😂. Happy crafting. 👋
I lost my mojo for EVERYTHING at the beginning of the year (especially for cross stitch and work). A few months ago a picked up a needle and my desire to cross stitch came flooding back. Still haven’t got the mojo back for work though 😢
So pleased to see you back at it I have missed you, and to answer your question yes I buy and don't use too, I dread to think how many I've still not used, but at least I have an excuse at the moment as 95% of all my craft items are packed ready to move, only problem is I still don't have a move date so god knows how long it's going to be before I can get back at it, but although this was a fairly simple card I love how it turned out, and no there is not too many splats lol.
I totally get it. Something that has given you joy and success in the past becomes a job, with stress and pressure to "perform". Please give yourself some grace to step away and come back in your time so the joy will return. I'm a relatively new subscriber and I really enjoy your videos. I know you must be worried about keeping your channel active, but not at the cost of your mental health. We will be here, please don't feel you HAVE to produce. Good vibes coming your way.
Thank you so much Susan, you’re right, there is a lot of pressure and I feel bad if I don’t keep up, but I’m also realising I’m only here once and my family is important and my grandbabies are growing so fast, one thing I love is crafting with my granddaughters, we made magic wands the other day, they loved it 😍😍😍
Marion, please be less hard on yourself. We love you! It’s okay to lose your mojo sometimes (we all do) and it just means you’re human. You wouldn’t mock a friend for such a thing, so give yourself some grace too. ❤. And your card looks like one of the posh things my daughter would buy. Mind if I copy it?
Take your time, you cannot force mojo. I decided my craft spsce needed a thorough sort out today. I'm stunned by how many stamps,stencils and dies I've never used. You're not alone.
🙋♀️ I'm guilty of losing my mojo. Sorry to hear you were sick. I hope you're feeling better! Time with the grands is always fun.....I also find it exhausting.
Marion: Kick back and listen to that great jazz you play on some of your videos. You'll recall I'm from St Louis, home to Miles Davis, Chuck Berry, Ike & Tina Turner, Michael McDonald and Singleton Palmer, to name a few. Jazz is a great healer . . . . 💕
Hello Marion, I am so glad you are back. I was having Marion Emberson withdraw symptoms. I kept checking for videos from you. I hope you went on many walks, breathed in the fresh air, and that spending time with your family gave you the inspiration you needed. Going back to what you love is inspiration in itself to get your mojo back. Much ❤and hugs 🫂 🌼🌻🌺🪻
Missed you but completely understand. Life gets in the way. It’s ok you’re not alone. You’re doing great for loosing it. Lol. Wondering g if a bit of Madge lodge would keep bits on. Just thinking.
@@pollyweinmann5082 I make you right… I’m really trying to see if I can do a live on Sunday, I’m not sure I can fit it in now as I’ve been asked to look after my sons dog 🙈🙈🙈🙈😂😂🤗
When you explained about the bin was trash can for Americans I was reminded of when I worked for a gentleman from the UK & one of his employees who was also British asked me if the ‘post had bean’ & I had no idea what he was talking about when another employee came up & translated for me! He said he wants to know if the mail has come yet! 😂
😂😂😂 it always amazes me how we speak the same language but have so many variations, my friend Donna and me often exchange differences … car boot = trunk, tap = faucet etc etc 😂😂😂😍😍
Been there - when that happens I don't try and create anything but then use that time to do a clean-up of the craft area - that way I'm at least doing something constructive.
All great authors get writer’s block and all great crafters get crafting block it’s your minds way of saying take break and re energise and you have come back with a beautiful card. Please take care of you we will still be here. 🤗
Oh Marion, you are not alone. Thank you for making such a lovely card and for being inspiring - even if you don't feel it. It's lovely to have you back and look forward to your next video, laughing along with you and being amazed at your latest creation. I'm waiting for a shed load of Wow powders to arrive - can't remember the project I was going to do with them, but I will have a play 😀. Take care.❤
You are NOT alone. Thanks for being here! Good job!
Thank you so much! Oh have fun when you get them, I hope you remember the project 😍😍😍
Thank you so much 🤗🤗🤗
No, you are not alone. I also had a health crisis. Getting back into the groove of things also. Yes, I also have items I haven't used yet.
Take care.
Always love your videos and honesty.
You're a lovely lady.
Thank you so much, I hope things are better for you 🥰🥰

Oh you’re so right Donna !! See, there’s always a positive, you should have got Bill to wrap them in Christmas paper 😂😂😂 hugs 🤗🤗🤗
Buying art supplies and using art supplies are two different activities !
You’re so right 😂😍😍😍
So nice to see you again!! I have missed your videos!! You are so inspiring!! Always enjoy your videos!!
Thank you so much Michele 😍😍😍
We all do it, don't we? I'd hate to show you all of the never inked stamps and never cut dies I have! And that old patterned paper! Love your card and how real you are!
Thank you Linda, it’s frightening isn’t it !! 😍😍😍
Marion, I am new to card making. I just wanted to tell you that I truly enjoy your videos. You are so down to earth and just make it fun.

Awww Becky never let anyone do that to you again 😍 there’s some horrible jealous people about, ignore them ! Crayon shavings 😂😂😂 I love that 😍😍😍
Marion, you are not alone! I am like many of the others whose comments are here. I have supplies stashed away that I have discovered but I have forgotten what I had planned to do with them! It’s like a different kind of addiction! 😘. Thanks for sharing your project. It’s beautiful!
Thanks for sharing Jeannie, you’re right, half the time I forget why I bought them 🙈🙈😂😂😍😍
You are not alone - I have so many things I have bought that I have still not used! You are so dear ❤️
We all belong in the naughty corner 😂😂😍😍
Thank goodness you are basically okay. Was worried you or a family member were very sick or worse since you hadn't posted for 3 weeks! Missed you.
Thank you so much! Was it that long 🙈🙈🙈 hopefully I’m back now 🤗🤗🤗

Well, it looks like all of us have all the same troubles! Mojo (or loss thereof), buying & hoarding, forgetting what we were going to use the stuff for, various aches & pains, life is like that! Just yesterday I used some ribbon that had never been opened, that is over 20 years old! I know that because it had my married name on it! Oh well… at least I’m getting to it now! Take care, Marion, you are such a delight & brighten so many of our lives, please don’t despair! Erica❤
Thank you so much Erica. Oh gosh I have boxes of ribbons from my shop days, I love ribbon, I need to do a project 😂😂😍😍😍
Oh, Marion-you are not alone! Sometimes, I get so overwhelmed with all my supplies that I don’t know where to start & so I don’t!!!
Lovely card today! Quick question, from what I’m reading, the mixed media additives are not meant to be heated like an embossing powder, correct?
Thank you so much! No you don’t heat them, but you can add them to embossing powder and heat that, they won’t melt 😍😍😍
Don't fret, Marion, we will all be here, waiting for as long as it takes! But it must feel right to you! We have all been there.....Your demo is awesome, your MMAs are lush and the leaves look fabulous! You never fail to inspire and create magic! Looking forward to your next video - when you're ready. 🤗xxx
Thank you so much! A little break does you good, well, it did me 😂😂😍😍😍
Missed you Marion, your aren't alone got supplies I've had for ages and still can't get into it but hope you get your motorbike back soon
Thanks Myra, I need to grab all my unused supplies and do a video 🤗🤗🤗
Sometimes there is such joy in buying new crafty things. You are not alone by any means!
There definitely is, it’s probably my drug as opposed to other nastiest out there 🤗🤗🤗
Welcome back. Losing our mojo is just a part of living. Beautiful products. Beautiful card. Thank you.
Thank you so much Paula 😍😍😍
Welcome back we missed you. I am like others who have commented...buying supplies and not getting to using them not remembering what they were for? It is a fabulous card and I look forward to seeing how this affects your mojo and what you come up with next:)
Oh thank you Barb. I did another video straight after, but forgot to press record 🙈🙈🙈 I need to see how it came out, otherwise I’ll do it again 😂😂😍😍😍

Thank you Vicki, I appreciate that 😍😍 copy away, that’s a lovely compliment 😍😍😍
I love your videos! Always fun and of course I'm American so love listening to the accent!
Thank you, I love the American accent 😍😍😍
I just love this card 💕
You are NOT alone on the supplies and not using them. I don't know how many I have that I haven't touched in forever. 😆
It’s bad isn’t it 🙈🙈 I must try harder 😍😍😍
Missed you . I can’t sit still but I have good news . I’m going to become a nanny in march , so I’m going to knit now x x x x
Oh Julie, that’s fabulous, congratulations 🤗🤗🤗
Take your time, you cannot force mojo. I decided my craft spsce needed a thorough sort out today. I'm stunned by how many stamps,stencils and dies I've never used. You're not alone.
Thanks Margaret, you’re right ! I’m going to have a search, wish me luck, I bet I have loads 😂😂😍😍
Hi there, it's great to see you back again 😀 ❤
Thanks Kaye, good to be back 🤗🤗🤗
That is a beautiful card Marion! ❤ ps you look like you’ve got a lovely summer suntan 😊😊
Oh thank you! Sleeveless all summer, but as I said to someone else, I won’t be showing my legs or belly 😂😂😂😂😍😍
No Marion, you are not alone I do that too. A great card and I hope your mojo comes back soon 😊
Thanks so much Kay 😍😍😍
That card is lovely & so different 😃
Thank you so much 🤗🤗🤗
These MMA’s look amazing!! If it helps, I’d love to see other ways you can them. I’d not heard of them before. Just a lovely card!
Glad you like them Cindy, I will do more, I promise, I’ve asked for more colours, I hope they listen to me 😂😂😍😍😍
🙋♀️ I'm guilty of losing my mojo. Sorry to hear you were sick. I hope you're feeling better! Time with the grands is always fun.....I also find it exhausting.
Thank you, it is exhausting but in a fun way 🤗🤗🤗
I love this card. Maybe simple but really effective.
Thank you, my favourites are simple but effective 😍😍😍
I know what you mean by losing your mojo. Usually it comes back when I see a neat idea or fun fold. Love your work. Pam
Thanks so much Pam 🤗🤗🤗
Very pretty, Marion!
Thank you Kathy 😍😍😍
Marion: Kick back and listen to that great jazz you play on some of your videos. You'll recall I'm from St Louis, home to Miles Davis, Chuck Berry, Ike & Tina Turner, Michael McDonald and Singleton Palmer, to name a few. Jazz is a great healer . . . . 💕
❤ even if you've lost your mojo, you do marvelous designs for us!
Oh thank you!, I appreciate that 😍😍
A whole journey starts with one step 😃. That card is different 💞💖💕
That is so true, thanks Kaye 🥰🥰🥰
We all struggle I’m the same at the minute I have lots of supplies I haven’t haven’t used yet look after yourself ❤
Thank you, I think that’s why I went back to some old stuff, I hope you get your mojo back 😍😍😍
Hello Marion, I am so glad you are back. I was having Marion Emberson withdraw symptoms. I kept checking for videos from you. I hope you went on many walks, breathed in the fresh air, and that spending time with your family gave you the inspiration you needed. Going back to what you love is inspiration in itself to get your mojo back. Much ❤and hugs 🫂 🌼🌻🌺🪻
Thank you so much, yes, I really cleared my head 😍😍😍
Missed you but completely understand. Life gets in the way. It’s ok you’re not alone. You’re doing great for loosing it. Lol. Wondering g if a bit of Madge lodge would keep bits on. Just thinking.
Thanks Judy, oh yes, a layer of Mod Podge would look lovely especially the gloss one 😍😍😍
I understand completely but I missed you & was worried about you.❤
I appreciate that, thank you so much 😍😍😍
Marion, you are far from alone. I have supplies I purchased years ago and still have not touched.
Thank you, I need to grab those supplies sitting in my room and do videos with them 😂😍😍
@marionemberson Perhaps, we need to have a day set aside for just that. The using of newly purchased supplies!
@@pollyweinmann5082 I make you right… I’m really trying to see if I can do a live on Sunday, I’m not sure I can fit it in now as I’ve been asked to look after my sons dog 🙈🙈🙈🙈😂😂🤗
Have so missed you and your videos . I do understand losing your mojo though. When is the fur pack embossing packs coming out?
Thank you, the quads are out now, 2 from Seth apter and one fruit puff 😍😍😍
Card looks amazing. I haven't had mojo for awhile, feel your pain.
Thank you Anne, it’s frustrating isn’t it 🙈😍😍😍
@@marionemberson totally, you have so much to do and no enthusiasm to it, hang in there, it's good to know we all have these moments
When you explained about the bin was trash can for Americans I was reminded of when I worked for a gentleman from the UK & one of his employees who was also British asked me if the ‘post had bean’ & I had no idea what he was talking about when another employee came up & translated for me! He said he wants to know if the mail has come yet! 😂
😂😂😂 it always amazes me how we speak the same language but have so many variations, my friend Donna and me often exchange differences … car boot = trunk, tap = faucet etc etc 😂😂😂😍😍
@@marionemberson bonnet=hood, I used to tell my boss I was going to teach him to speakTexican! He said he spoke proper English but I didn’t.😁
@@grannieannie40 😂😂😂😂
Been there - when that happens I don't try and create anything but then use that time to do a clean-up of the craft area - that way I'm at least doing something constructive.
That’s a great idea and you just know you’ll come across old stuff ready to be used again 😜😍😍
All great authors get writer’s block and all great crafters get crafting block it’s your minds way of saying take break and re energise and you have come back with a beautiful card. Please take care of you we will still be here. 🤗
You’re so right. Thank you 😍😍😍
