      That’s not what I say 😉!
      I now make 5/6 of each card design, especially with layers and/or texture paste, so that I don’t panic when things go wrong. It’s like a little production line and reduces waste which I abhor.

    Natasha, I did really enjoyed your video, but I have to say that I have made embossing mistakes like that as well, many times. Yes I did get a good laugh, when youtube crafters share their crafting mistakes it does help and encourage to keep crafting. Thank you for spreading the joy and fun of crafting and the mistakes as well.

    Enjoyed watching your technique for applying layers with double sided tape. I have been doing this for years, even started doing it on my own. The only thing I do differently is to use a tiny bit of liquid glue on the exposed sticky so I can move it around a little to get it into place. Guess I tend to be a perfectionist-so my friends say. Takes more time, but makes me happy! Love you videos.

    Oh my lol! Was watching the heat embossing and thinking why is it getting darker? I definitely admire your persistence with using that little blue piece! Beautiful cards and love the idea using two different card stock colours. One of my favorite techniques, but realised that I have only ever used white ink for it. Am anxious to try other colours, starting with red for some reason lol.

    • @NatashaFooteCreative
      @NatashaFooteCreative  Рік тому +2

      If it was anything except the main sentiment, then I would likely just be able to go with it, and make it work...but nope, not for the sentiment! That needed to be re-done lol!

    I'm laughing at your embossing powder mix up because I did the same thing yesterday, only I used white when I thought I was using clear. I love seeing how you fix things and how you persevere, even if it's not what you wanted, it's so helpful. I've thought about piecing together card stock for a matting layer, but I thought it would be too obvious. Next time I need to, I'll be trying your technique. Your cards are so pretty. The white ink over top really adds to the folders.

  • @vikkicowie4501

    I just spent ages hand colouring a beautiful image. Made the matte added a frame and sentiment, stuck it all on the card, et voila... Backwards!! So the card opened left too right instead of right to left. Luckily I was able to remove the sentiment, stick it upside down and it still worked. Whew! We all do silly things. Lol

    Excellent save, Natasha! You surprised me in an earlier video when you said blue is your favorite color (I can imagine your disappointment when you discovered only partial plus card stock here at the beginning--see why we tend to hoard the ones we like most??), because you generally choose oranges and yellows. These both turned out so beautifully! Thank you for sharing. 💕

    • @NatashaFooteCreative
      @NatashaFooteCreative  Рік тому +3

    Natasha your cards are really lovely, and that was a fabulous “ save”. Well done. I do the same. I ask my husband “ can he see anything wrong” with the card, usually the sentiment, on crooked, and he says to me, just give it to someone you don’t like , laughing at the same time, knowing very well that I would never ever, ever do that. 😂😂😂

    Amazing. I have to say, I truly admire your skills with a pair of scissors - I can never cut straight by hand and your cuts always look like they were done with a trimmer. That border looks perfect 😊

    I was quizzical on the card with the two colors. Of course it came out beautifully!! My eyes constantly were pulled to the the two tone card. Maybe it is the significant difference between the two colors that is so striking. I already had household duties planned for today but the muse calleth! I probably should set an alarm so I don't get lost in time. I have to experiment with different colors. Ah well.... it will be fun. I can vacuum later. Just a short time to feed the soul....

    Thanks for your inspiring tutorial. I only have one 3D folder which I have yet to use on a card (the e.f. was a gift in a kit) so I shall use a light spritz of water on the paper to avoid paper cracking. 🇨🇦 Jo

    Such a fun video and great cards to finish. The colours were fab! I think it is time I got out those embossing folders and had a play! Thank you for sharing your tips and happy accidents with us xx

    I couldn't see the oopsie/s - until I did. A good laugh to start my day. Good on you for leaving it in. I'm off to the craft room to rescue some dry embossed pages that I just haven't felt the love for .... And some inks!

    What a coincidence, I actually tried this method last weekend with a 3D of shells. I had seen this where you just turned the ink pad over and run it lightly across the embossing. Well apparently my ink pad was too wet because it just totally messed it up so then I used the regular dauber that I normally use on that ink pad and it was still too wet and I ruined another piece of paper. So tomorrow I am going to try your method where I just barely touch an unused sponge to the ink pad and apply to the card. Fingers crossed I'll have a light enough touch that it will do much better. I just can't believe you came out with this within days after I tried this. Thanks for sharing

    I have been stamping and playing with paper all my life and I gotta give a shout out on the humble sponge. Lots of fancy blenders today, but I never seem to grow tired of the textures you can make with art sponges. Carry on.

    Hi. Both are looking looking cards ( maybe sit down for this 😂) and this time I can actually pick out a favourite! It's the second one due to it not only being remarkably eye-catching but it's an outstanding testimony to your ingenuity, frugality, determination and craftsmanship. BRAVO!!! Thank you so very much for such an enlightening and entertaining video.

    Love your cards! Thanks for sharing. I have done the piecing like you did and it works. We keep going and make the paper work when we are on the last piece of a certain color. Great job!

    Natasha, We’ll you” went around your elbow to get to your thumb” on this card , didn’t you ❣️Just to use up your scraps of card stock ! Hilarious ❣️ It’s cool that you just laugh about it, when I would have been frustrated and would have thrown if away ! I get a smile every time I watch your videos !
    Did you start out by using inks or another medium ?
    Did I hear you say that you had been an elementary school teacher ? I am sure you were excellent , as you have a fun personality ❣️
    Thank you for sharing information , humor, and ways to work around difficulties !

    I’ve done that technique before and it always looks nice. Another technique I’ve used is actually putting the ink inside the embossing folder and then adding the card stock and running the card stock through the Big Shot. It’s such a cool technique and you really can’t go wrong with it.
