Wonderful cards Gerry!! I love how you put papers together,you're so talented and the cards have a mixed media look about them,Thanks so much for sharing! x

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Thanks, you're welcome💕

[@dizzinese]

I LOVE the use of the patterned paper. I want to clear out some of mine for sure and you do fabulous cards with that! I also wanted to say that I use the"flicking" technique on the edge of the paper more and longer than anything I have ever learned. I learned that at the first stampin up house party I went to in 2003! I still do it often today and especially on envelopes!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

it adds that special touch doesn't it, you go dive right in then😉💕

[@12lesflo]

Love the very first card. You do amazing work. The others were pretty but the first win was my absolute favorite of them all❤

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks💖

[@sandyweirauch8310]

WOW! That was fantastic - I can't wait to try out . . .a couple of those ideas. . .and save the video to watch again and again. Thank you for all the great ideas and the pdf file, too!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

great you're welcome, have lots of fun💖

[@barbaramatthews4556]

I absolutely love how you made these cards and such great fun fold cards. Thanks so much for sharing with us.

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Thanks, you're welcome💕

[@dizzinese]

Love these ideas! I am not one for the busy print, but I have alot of patterned paper and I want to use it! I like patterned paper, I just never know what to do with it after I buy it. I stopped buying it a while ago, but need to clean house. Really like the patterned paper vids Gerry. Thanks. After Christmas is over, I plan on rewatching as many videos as I can and after I watch one, go to my room and try it! I don't have time for that in the yard work seasons. And I can't remember all I am watching to use it when I have time to finally sit down and make a card! That's the plan. Thanks

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks💖 Time to bash that stash then and it all starts with a plan😉

[@stampinwithsafia]

Love this video, so many fun fold ideas! Just subscribed to your channel 💙

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Thanks, you're welcome💕

[@sharonboynton4716]

Love these cards. Wish I had enough confidence to mix patterns

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks💖 try adding a little edge of cardstock or solid colour in between layers, that can help you along😉

[@dww786]

The various patterns within a paper pad are designed to go together. Have a play with them---you can hardly go wrong! :o)

[@sharynackerley2611]

I do love fancy fold cards and you made it look easy too. Love how beautiful they all are. 💕

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks, fancy but fun😉💖

[@judyhartmann3071]

I really think these fold are great! I liked the very last one but it was too fast to see how it folded! I will watch again!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks Judy, you can adjust the speed with the cogwheel at the bottom when you hover over the video💖

[@dizzinese]

EXCELLENT IDEA! Brilliant idea on covering a part of the patterned paper with another piece of coordinating paper! I used to have or see papers with a great background color or wash but it would have some random element that I didn't like in it. That was great!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

thanks💖 time to start covering things up then, lol

[@expressivepaper]

Fun fun fun!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]
