I discovered you in December when I started card making & absolutely eat up all your videos. Your balloon card looks every bit like expensive designer paper! I’m learning to use all sorts of things to create stencils & to ink-dye paper so I don’t have to buy every colour. This tutorial has been very helpful. Thank you Natasha. ❤🇦🇺
Hi Natasha.....I have told all my friends about your clever card making. I’m in Auckland and have been watching you and your littlies for a while now and have learned so much from you.Thank you so much for the inspiration I get from watching you. Your demonstrations are quick and to the point. No wasting time selling products. That’s what we want.....I wish I lived closer to you.....although you must be feeling the cold now on the South Island......stay warm.....👏👏🌺
Yes, it is definitely getting pretty cold now! Thank you for your lovely support. It honestly really makes my day to get a lovely message like this. I appreciate that you take the time out of your day to stop and pass that onto me. Enjoy the warmer Northern temperatures for me please, Natasha :)
This is such a great technique and you make it look so easy to do. I love your style of videos, quick and to the point. Thank you again for another wonderful card making video!
I often just use the negative of die cuts I have cut to make a ‘free’ stencil. I have acetate and also stencil sheets but the card works well for a temporary stencil. As my husband says, cheap is good, free is best!
I just realized that I totally missed seeing this adorable Birthday Card, that you done 3 years ago🥰😍😊❤❣ I think I'm going to give this creative card a go for this month, because I have a daughter 4 granddaughter's 4 grandson's & a great granddaughter Birthday for the month of June. This is a busy month for me making cards and I fell in love with your card. Thank You so much Natasha for all that you have taught all of us, it really means the world to me. I don't write comments every time, because as you can see my daughters telk me that I write my life stories instead of a comment. But I do have to tell you that I have followed you for years😊❤❣ And see your wee little ones giving a wave & saying Hello just fills my heart ❤ with so much Joy and Love. Thank You Sweetheart. Sending Love, Hugs and Blessings to you and your Family. Please Stay Safe and Healthy XOXO Vicki from S.L.C. Utah U.S.A.
You're amazing. The idea is fantastic and the card looks stunning. How you match up the dies to make them so thick is unbelievable - mine never ever match properly - love the thicker more solid look but can never achieve it. Your card is gorgeous! TFS.
Beautiful! I love your tips, and I would never have thought of keeping the frame taped into the card. It's beautiful, from beginning to end. Thank you! Hugs!
For some reason, that balloon background really draws me in. It must be the shades of colours that you used and again with the black sentiment ... another beauty.
I really enjoyed your video today. I have decided that I could listen to you talk about how to start your car for hours, and combined with your talent, that makes your videos so much fun to watch.
The colors you used are so perfect together. And could actually be used for a boy or girl. I think at least. Lol. What a fun card. You always get my mind going thinking about other ways to use mt supplies.
Hello, Natasha. Loving your many ideas! Simple and gorgeous, every single one. I have a question about using a die cutting machine (I don't have one yet.) Could you glue three or four pieces of black paper together, of a size to accommodate your Happy Birthday phrase, glue them together (almost like one thick piece) and then run the glued stack through your die cutter only once so the words come out in one piece? Have you ever tried that? I like the thick, stacked look, but envision the letters getting all wonky when trying to glue them together. But, then, maybe not. Just not sure of the capability of die cutting machines. Thanks for any help you can provide. Need to do some research on a good die cutting machine. TFS! Cheryl in AZ
Hi Cheryl, I can't speak for every single die cutting machine, but in general, i don't know of a die cutting machine that has that capability. For the most part, die cutting machines can handle cutting out one layer, and sometimes two layers of normal cardstock, but even then, the second piece of paper may not be cut as clean. I t's easier than you think to line the die cuts up, especially when you use a liquid glue, and you can slide them around a fraction or two until they are as you would like them. Hope that helps x
Natasha Foote awe thank you for your kind words! I hope it gets there soon! If not I will definitely send another. Please let me know if you do not receive by Thursday next week the 31st hun.. just shoot me an email and I will gladly send the other one. (I usually make two since I am already making one why not..lol) big hugs my dear friend. Xoxoxo
I found your tutorials in December. And all i can say is where have been all my life? Love it

What an artist you are, Natasha! Your ideas are all so unique and artistic. Thanks for sharing!

Love this card! I have taken to buying nail polish from the dollar store and using it on my layered sentiment to get a thick enamelled
look

Very cute card! Why did I not think of making my own stencil???? Thank goodness for your willingness to share.
So simple yet so pretty. Thank you so much for sharing
Cute card! Love the added sparkle to those pretty balloons!

Natasha, what a awesome idea in making our own stencils...thank you so much
So clever making your own stencil....I’m going to try this 🥰
Another wonderful technique!! Cute card! Thank you!
I love the way you made your own stencil. I may try this.

Love the balloons,
awesome idea and gorgeous card.
So brilliant.... I love your simple brilliance
Great tip of keeping the die cut together, I love it!
Happy little card!
Like the idea of using a die to emboss a frame. Could use smaller ones to emboss different 'images' on one card front.
I really enjoyed your video today. I have decided that I could listen to you talk about how to start your car for hours, and combined with your talent, that makes your videos so much fun to watch.
Perfect! Great idea for a stencil. ☺️
I learn so much from you. Thank you.

Nice card!
Can you let me know where to get the glue
Have you used the Ali pay over pay pal? I was dismayed when I saw they were charging over $9.00 if Pay Pal was used.
Gorgeous as always!! Did you get the card I sent you it's been like 3 weeks ago.. please let me know and thanks for sharing!!!
Hiya! I have been keeping my eyes peeled, but I haven't received it yet..hopefully soon!! Looking forward to it!
