YES! This was a very helpful video. I have been looking at patterned paper packs recently. You do such wonderful cards using patterned paper. As I have been looking at the paper packs though, I have been at a loss as to what I'm looking for. I couldn't have found this video at a more perfect time. Your examples, and explanations, clearly helped me understand more of what to look for. ❤
That is so wonderful to hear, Debbie! Thank you!😀
Thank you- this was fabulous! Can't wait to pull out my paper pads and see what I can put together!!
Wonderful!😀 Best of luck with it, Rachel!
Thank you for going the extra mile and separating the video for us! I’m sure I will be coming back to this video frequently. I truly appreciate all the work you put into your videos!!
Aw, I’m so happy it was helpful for me to do that! I wasn’t sure if people would be annoyed by me posting such similar content again. I’m relieved to know you enjoyed it!😀
Great video! This was awesome and very helpful. Your little card stash was adorable.
I appreciate that so much!😀
This is a very late comment considering your posting date but I want you to know this was a VERY helpful video/tutorial for me! I love patterned paper but I have no clue how to use it. I'm ashamed to even admit it but it is what it is!!! After watching your video, I can't wait to play with all my patterned paper! Super informative and fun ideas! TFS
That makes me so happy to hear, Gayle! So glad that the video helped you out!😀

Oh my goodness, you just made my day! I’m so thrilled that you enjoyed this video and found it helpful! That means everything!🥰
Always helpful Christy!! Thank you.
That means a lot, Ann Marie! Thanks!☺️
I surely appreciate hearing your thoughts as you pick out papers to layer together. Its something I struggle with myself and so I found this very very helpful. Thanks so much.
I’m so happy to hear that, Anne!😊
Separating this from the haul video was inspired! This will be really easy to refer back to when I need it. I love this even more every time I watch it. You are amazingly talented. I am sure that God gave you this talent to help others. You are so appreciated and admired, thank you for sharing your talents with us and helping us to become better. Have a splendid weekend! Take care and big crafty hugs. I hope you are doing well.
You are the sweetest, Rose!💗 Thank you so much for your kindness and encouragement! It truly means the world!☺️
Thank you so much for making this separate video! It is so helpful! 💖
I’m so happy you liked it!😊
Such a helpful video! Thank you. I often buy pads because i love the patterns and colors. Then, they just sit there because I don’t know what to do with them!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Nancy!☺️
Great ideas. Thx
Glad you enjoyed them!😊
So helpful!! Will definitely be saving this to refer back to!! You always use amazing patterns!!
Aw, thank you, Jenn! That means a lot!🥰
Thank you for this segment of matching patterns it was super helpful! I have always loved how you pulled your patterns together for your cards but struggled to figure out how to match them myself. This is definitely a video to save in my favorites so I can refer back to it 🥰 Thank you for sharing your creative talents I always look forward to your videos!!
That’s awesome, Susie! I’m so happy you feel like it’s worth saving and referring back to!☺️
Thank you Christy! I am always impressed by your patterned paper choices. This was really helpful.
I’m so pleased to hear it, Ann!😊
I am so happy you made this video, so very informative tfs
Aw, that’s wonderful, Cathy! Thank you so much for watching!☺️
Very helpful! Thank you!
I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Katherine!☺️
Thanks for doing the extra work of separating this out from your haul video. I struggle with using patterned paper so I found this very helpful! I am a quilter too and never equated choosing papers for cards with choosing fabrics (something else I struggle with, which is why I usually buy kits for the quilts I make.) 😊 I think I'll go through some of my paper pads to pair up some prints. I will also have a new way of looking at paper pads when shopping in the future. Thanks for all of your work in preparing these tutorials and sharing your tips and tricks. It is very much appreciated.
I’m so glad I was able to explain it in a way that you could connect with, Mary! I bet your quilts are lovely! I once cut up squares for a quilt, but I never put it together. I was a teenager at the time. But it’s always appealed to me!😊
@@christygetscrafty Quilts were just something I was drawn to. No history of quilters in my family. I took it up as a reward to myself after returning to school to get my Master's degree in my 40's. Now 20 some years later and retired, I have a little more time to sew, and oodles of kits I've purchased waiting for me. I buy quilt kits like I do papercrafting supplies. Oh - that's a cute card (quilt). I need all the things to make it. LOL!
@@christygetscrafty You are so good with color and patterns - you would be an excellent quilter if you ever decided to give it a go again.
This was very helpful!
I’m so happy to hear it!☺️
This is very helpful. Thank you! I missed the haul video so I would not have seen this if you hadn’t separated it out. (We were on vacation and I just didn’t have time to watch all the videos I normally do.)
I hope you went somewhere fun and relaxing!😀 And I’m so glad you enjoyed this video!
Great information! Thank you! ☀️
I’m glad you enjoyed it, Margaret!☺️
@@christygetscrafty very much so.
thank you.. it was very helpful for me...
That is so nice to hear, Debbie!💗
Really helpful information. Sometimes I find it difficult to match the paper within the same paper pad especially with Recollections or DCWV pads. I'm like why is this in here? lol Thanks for sharing!
Some pads are definitely more difficult to work with than others!😉
Great video as always. Thank you for taking the time to create and upload this video, as I will be using time after time, to create my cards. Just had a quick question, if I may? Was curious to know, where you obtained the clear cellophane packaging for the cards? Thank you in advance for your time and look forward to hearing back from you.
I used to buy them on Etsy but the sellers I’ve used in the past both closed up shop, so I ordered them from Amazon last time. Just look for clear, reusable cello bags and you should find a variety of sizes.🙂
Thankyou for this video! I always struggle with pattern paper. I have sooo much and my goal is to use my stash.
I am curious to know, Do you pick your papers first and then color your images? I never thought to do it that way and usually have a very hard time finding paper to match.
I would love to see a video with you showing the ways to do this.
Thank you again for the inspiration!
Yes, I typically pick the images first, then dies, then patterned paper, then color palette! I will have a video coming out on my process soon!☺️
The cards you show are so professionally done. This is the standard I want to get to with making cards. I’m no where near to your standard. Do you have any pointers.
That’s very sweet! Just keep practicing! I’ve been cardmaking for twelve years now, making 3-4 cards a week that entire time. Use good quality products and professional tools when you can. Quality matters in helping your cards look professional. I have a couple new videos with my most recommended and favorite supplies and tools for cardmakers. Take a look and see if there’s anything that could help you improve your skills. Other than that, just keep crafting and keep it fun!😀
I have a question, do you usually choose your pattern papers first and then the stamps you are using, or the other way around? You inspire me so much, your style of cards are right up my alley and I want to improove my card making and you help me a lot with it, thank you!
Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
I usually choose my stamps first, then the patterned paper, and pull my color combos from there.😊
Hi Christy. Just wondering where you get your cellophane to put your cards in?
I used to get it on Etsy, but all the stores I used have closed so last time I ordered them from Amazon.🙂
