I love these types of tutorials. You actually took the time to teach and not just show. Thank you so very much.
I personally enjoy crafting videos that show the entire process without any fast forwarding. Your videos are enjoyable and motivating. Keep 'em coming:)
I'm finished my Christmas cards, thankfully! I got the ones I mail, out yesterday! Everyone receives their cards from me early. They are certainly a labor of love! Love your videos. Short or long is fine. Just appreciate what you do. Shonda
Robyn, I really enjoy watching you make cards, and I have got alot of great tips for card making as well. The speed is great for me to watch as well and is very relaxing and I look forward to each new video. Thank you for sharing your talent and time your work is beautiful!
I really enjoy your videos and do find them relaxing. If I'm running short on time, I can always finish watching later. I hope you have time to make lots of videos for us! Love your style!!
I enjoy your videos and they are not too long. I like the fact that you explain step by step what you are doing.
Beautiful card. And I like how you did all three to show how simple it is to mass produce. TFS
I like the videos that don't fast forward, I enjoy seeing all the details that goes into it. When they are fast forwarded they make me feel rushed and that you rushed to get them done. Enjoy your videos.
I haven't started Christmas cards at all yet. I am the Pokey Little Puppy when it comes to getting going on them.
Just beautiful and I have enjoyed watching you do the cards and I will be doing this one and the other also----Just love your videos and you are a great lady with a great talent--hugs to you and your family---
Love the cards and I love this type of videos. It helps me to see the process. Thank you for sharing. I send out homemade cards every year and I just got started on mine.
I love this video! Thank you for helping me figure out how to do multiple Christmas cards that are similar or the same. I am one of those people that struggles with cards but I like to make my Christmas cards, at least for family and close friends and this helps a lot. I like that you are relaxed and take your time, it makes it easier for me to remember the steps and think of ideas of my own to add to yours. TYFS!!
Really cute cards!!!! Love the video!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!
Bonjour votre carte est super belle. Simple et trop belle. Bonne journée 😊😊😊
Your card us so pretty and would be very proud to send it out!! I loved your video I do think it's relaxing and fun to sit with you with my cup of Keurig in my hand and sipping away while I hang with you in your craftroom. I really like the soothing sound of your voice and enjoy watching you go thru your creative process.

Love it! To answer your question, I don't have a long way to go with my Christmas cards. Mine areall done & ready to go to the post office tomorrow. I like to get my cards hand cancelled. I do a few cards a month so I don't have to worry about them past October. I also put aside a few postage stamps so I don't have to buy them all at once. I enjoy waching step by step video's. JIL
Gorgeous cards and very well demonstrated.
This card is very pretty. I hope to make them for Christmas this year. Thank you for sharing such beautiful work.
Hi there i'm also watching this in July and there these cards are the sort that never go out of fashion,just beautiful and simple
Robyn, these cards turned about so pretty! AND yes, I work on cards up to the week before Christmas. TFS the tip with the hot glue for gluing in the embossed cs...never thought of it.
I enjoy your videos...But I do just fast forward when you repeat the process.

Like your card. Love the bold color and large snowflakes. TFS
This is a quick card to mass produce, I might use your idea to begin my Christmas cards. Thanks🤗
I have been finding it challenging to make a pretty card without having to pay extra to send. I'm glad to hear you mention something like that. I often ask how people afford to send the cards they make with so many layers. Beautiful card, thank you for sharing this. Happy Crafting!
I liked the step by step making of your cards. I feel like I can duplicate your techniques . You are a natural. Thank you
Love it! You did a great job on it. TFS your card with all of us
Thanks for sharing. I made some cards based on this idea and people really loved it. 💖
Hey, I just found your tutorial and made my Christmas Cards...they turned out so very cute. Thank you for submitting this.
Thank you for sharing. Lovely card and video
Simple and very pretty! Love them! TFS! Karen
I really enjoyed your video even thou it's past Christmas.I love snow flakes on cards and yours was real easy for anyone.I'm new to your sight but I like what I have seen so far. I think I will make your idea for next year.
GORGEOUS Cards again!! :-)
I for one LOVE listening to You so the longer the better for the Videos!!
Evan said earlier its Robyn again!! LOL!!

Big Hugs,

I love your card videos, oh I love all your videos , your mini albums are so beautiful too. Hope you are well, hugs Judy
Love your video and your card and the pace and your sweet, gentle way. :) It's all great. I also GREATLY admire anyone who can confidently use a hot glue gun without burning herself and without it clogging up! ;) I think I just found my 2015 Christmas card. TYFS!
Love your video.....very nice pace and it is relaxing to watch....
Love your beautiful cards, I've enjoyed watching your video's all afternoon, and found them very relaxing and learned lots of ideas, so thank you very much x
Love the cards! Thank you for sharing these fun cards!
I love your video, when you make more than one card we get to really see how you do it. If you were doing only one card, we might miss a step. These are so cute, will definitely make these cards. Thanks so much

I'm a first time viewer and must say I've enjoyed watching this video. A sweet card for the holidays. I hope to see more current projects. Thanks muchly.
I do like that sentiment--looks so pretty in red. In love with embossing folders. Hubby is very ill so I am using store bought cards accented with stickles etc this year. Going to make some for next year like these now. Good tip about paper for punch..
Beautiful card
Very pretty Christmas card....thank you so sharing...
Thank you . My first time seeing you . Like the space and the card.
This was a great tutorial, so much easier to follow and keep up with. I am new to card making and i really enjoyed this one. Thankyou.
First Thank You!! I like both kinds of videos, fast and walk me through each step. I'm glad that you show how easy it is to mass produce. You might want to consider investing in a snowflake die, would be easier to use with glitter paper.
Love the cards! You did a great job. Tfs.
I like watching every step, even if it is a repeat, saves me from rewinding. But for those who MAY not be patient, you could post time stamps so people can fast forward to the new steps. Thanks for the wonderful video. :)
Video was at a great pace-easy to follow
Thank you so much for sharing. I really like this card.
Love your cards and video's! Will try and make a few for Christmas! Thanks for sharing!
I made these cards this year (2013) except I used an icy blue and silver and glitter ribbon but no bow. So very cute.
I am sick today and loved your long video...I get sad when I run out of new videos to watch in my subscription list. Wish I had that punch, just what my cards are lacking!
I am new to card making. I really appreciate the assembly line tips.
Love your cards love your videos I find them very relaxing. Love love love this card! Thank so much. Christine =}
Hey Robyn, I love all your videos as I find your voice very soothing. Christmas cards are gorgeous btw.
Hugs
Michelle
beautiful sharing ! thank you !
Thank you for this very helpful video. If I get organised and start now (mid January), I am confident that even I can make all my cards for next Christmas. I know the theory but seeing it step by step is perfect.
they look easy and very nice. I think I will try thinner paer. your a smart cookie
I love this card and the videos are easy to follow I will be doing these thank you 😄
Great video! You were at a wonderful pace! I hate watching videos that they speed up and you miss half of what is bring done. Thank you so much! Bridgette
I love this card and the videos that you do!!!
Love the video it is so easy to follow for me. Thank you.
Great idea!! Many thanks from "down-under".
What beautiful cards!
TFS
I loved your video. It was very helpful.
Lovely tutorial & cards TFS. Hugs, Dee x
Beautiful card design! Not to much time spent but looks like one did.
Love the card you do great on your videos just not quite sure why there is a need to show all three though i know its to show how to mass produce it just is a but redundend. I love that you are so detailed and that you do all in steps. Great job
It's 2014 (mid September), and I'm looking for holiday card ideas. This one is nice and fairly quick. I love the fine-tip glue gun you're using.
I love the Christmas card videos, Robyn -- I enjoy the pace of them as it allows for note taking. Your bows look neat and flat -- any tips?
love the card thank you for sharing
Thanks, Michelle. Hello to my little buddy, Evan! You have such a sweet family. xx
Gorgeous cards thanks for sharing ~ Mel
I like your videos, don't change a thing. You can not please everyone, JUST DO YOU!!!!!
very pretty card.
I do 75 handm,ade cards a year. I start in Sept. Love your cards. Thanks for sharing. sherrye
Thanks for sharing with us your talent. Your videos are awesome. I have a question for you, which is the glue gun you used, it seems very accurate. I have tried several, but never get a perfect tip.
I am new to card making but I loved your video thank you for taking time to explain how simple something so pretty could be I look forward to more of your videos Robin x August 2015
These are adorable!
I loved the tutorial and I found the pace to be relaxing. Some videos go so fast that I can't hardly remember what the steps were.
These are great! I'm going to try them! You have a great video voice:)
Lady's just a little helpful hint. Use a piece a of waxs paper with your dies it helps a lot.
Hi! I loved the video and the card! I was wondering if wrapping paper for the snowflakes would work?
Absolutely gorgeous!! Thank you so much for your taking the time to be "folksy"!! Love it when you gave your girls a kiss goodnight!😊
Enjoy this tutorial for an easy mailer, pretty, low stress assembly card. Appreciate the steps in triplicate, allows me time to make notes AND watch what is going on without having to pause many times. Perfect pacing for me, I was able to watch it almost straight through. I don't create bows well, what would you suggest as an alternative?
I mail out between 70-80 cards and I make them all..but I usually make about 10 different kinds..now I am thinking that next year maybe I will only make 1 or 2 different designs, I am sure it will go a lot faster...your cards are beautiful!
love your vid love your cards
Loved this and I am so late doing my cards this year and this is going to help big time. I have about 30 to do. I'll let you know if I needed more postage, Thank you.
I am watching this in July if 2015 and GREATLY enjoying it. I am working on my Christmas cards. I want to do a minimum of 500 for the Red Cross this year. My sister shared A LOT of supplies with me and I am paying it forward. I also love card making.
The pace is great. I love the card. My snowflake die (it has 2 snowflakes) should be here today or tomorrow. I'm not sure if I will use the fancy paper for the snowflakes but I definitely see myself doing a batch of this type of card.
Batch making cards is fun but some videos make it seem MUCH faster than it really is. Thank you for being more realistic
Very nice idea!!
Thank you! Last year I only finished 300. I made a few hundred for my mom's church activities. This year I have 256 done so far. I have made A LOT of snowflake cards!
ONLY 300!? 😳 😃Loved your comment about some mass producers making it look
faster and easier! Some get downright edgy!!?? It helps to know it can be
done, though.
+Nikki Hensley I live in an area with A LOT of military bases. My husband is retired Airforce. Our Red Cross couldn't handle cards. I gave them to the USO at the airport. With the hand written messages I think my cards take 6 to 10 minutes on average. I don't write 1 message, stamp 1 sentiment, and do 1 front. I do a bunch of each and then put together the cards.
+Jesse b I wanted to clarify that my written message takes about 2 minutes to write.
I am glad you liked my comment about pace and time. You are right, some people seem like they are TERRIFIED when they do a mass production video!
Mid September 2018. Love this cards.
silver paper upside in the punch it work better. I loved your tutorial. it is great thank you
These are so pretty,I love the snowflakes ,thank you for sharing ,are the stamps and the punch still available to buy,if so,where can I buy them please?
Beautiful cards! Personally, I love the videos like this where you make something and talk as you go or where they do choice overs and explain it. I just can’t watch the ones with that horrible UA-cam music. I will if I really want to see it and mute it but it’s not the same like that. I like the feeling that the person is there with me, almost. Thank you for your great videos.
I'm watching this oct 2014. Beautiful card. Enjoyed seeing card done in triplicate. Wondering about your small glue gun. Love the fine tip. Wondering brand or where to find one. Thanks
Hi love your video what's the name of the stamp set you are using?
Thank you for watching. =) The glue gun is just a very inexpensive one from Hobby Lobby. I paid $5./something but they're now $7.99 at my hobby Lobby. Such a good deal and you're right, it does have the perfect tip size. =)
Have been looking for a video like this for ages - one that gives you time to take notes, replay etc. Can you please tell me where to buy all the tools, card paper, stamps etc. Everything that I will need would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Instead of using the ATG gun for the ribbon would the Xyron X sticker maker work?
Could you please tell me what size card you used ASAP...Want to go into production asap. Thanks. Beautiful card.
It looks like an A2, but you can make it any size that fits your embossing folder and envelope.
what kind of tape did you use? name brand of tape and also the glue gun? i don't have a hobby lobby that is close to me. great video. thank you.
Very pretty card. I realize that this is not a recent video, so this probably won't receive a reply but I was wondering what type of a glue gun you were using. It looked as though it had a narrow tip (which is what I liked about it) but I was unable to see a shot where I could see what the brand it was. Would you mind telling me that? I hate to bother you with such a silly question but sure would like to know. Enjoyed the way you talk as you are crafting, as though we were in the room w/ you. Truly liked the card and thank you for taking the time to share. Happy Thanksgiving! Hugs, Suzy
+Suzy Ikerd Hi Suzy, thank you so much for taking the time to watch my videos, I really appreciate it. Glad you liked the card. I can't recommend my glue gun highly enough. It's actually very inexpensive; which is a bonus. Hopefully, you have a Hobby Lobby near you (I think they may even have online ordering now?) Anyway, I got it from there for around $5, but I believe it has gone up to about $7-8 now (to give you an idea). It does have a very fine tip and comes with a stand. Not sure of the brand anymore though. Hope you're able to find one. :) Happy Thanksgiving to you, too! :)
+injoystampin Thank you so very much for the reply. We do have a local Hobby Lobby so I will be checking it out. Again, thanks. Hugs, Suzy
+Suzy Ikerd Hi Suzy, I got another question for you 😅 where did you got the large tape dispenser? ??
