OMG Cathy, you crack me UP! Love your sense of humor AND your talent of course! "It's two ~ two ~ two shows (mints) in one." (Showing my age quoting an old Certs commercial!). Love the retro papers!!! Was wondering where you were going with white embossing on white paper (card 2) ~ then VOILA ~ you inked! Brilliant!!!! Love card 3 also! Very elegant!
I enjoy your videos, you have so much fun creating. In fact, I subscribed to Simon's kit so I could stamp along with you. Thanks for all you do to inspire others💕💕💕
I love that you're a Twilight fan, Cathy! and when you bring it up, it just puts a smile on my face!!! And as always, your style is so beautiful. Love it!
Cathy, these cards are amazing. You always do such a great job with these kits. I could watch you all day. I am really looking forward to this kit. I love all the cards, but my 2 favorites are the Holiday Cheer and Merry & Bright followed by the beautiful tree. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!🎄🎅
I said it the only purchases from. Ow on are Simon and Gina. I already ordered and this time I was smart and got the dies to go with them. Hopefully they’ll get here quick so next week I can play. No work just cooking and hopefully crafting until the kids get here
I was able to get my order in before they ran out (thanks for the link). I almost didn't get the kit but by the time I put the stamps & dies in my cart, it was more cost effective to just get the kit even though I don't need any more patterned paper. Kristina knocked it out of the park with that stamp set! I also added a package of that Midnight Green cardstock to my order - so gorgeous! The dies are a bit pricey but you get them for the whole stamp set so it's worth it. Great cards today!!
Cathy, sorry about my previous comment. My inner sailor/truck driver/construction worker/grandfather came out🤬😮😢 It’s a bad pain day and YT pushed me right over the edge😂 Had been looking forward to your video & it was the highlight of my day.
Cathy, just wanted to say I always love watching your clean style even with kits that are destined for more rustic designs based on the add-ons. It’s gives all of us many ways to use the same kit.
I have disposable (medical) gloves that I use when I don’t fingerprints on something, or if I am doing an especially messy technique and don’t want it all over my fingers
I'm loving your makes!!! I'm learning a lot. But, as a beginner, I have a Q : When U add a writing panel inside? ( usually for which dark colors )? I saw it for the black, .... I feel that the red and green call for those panels.... I do TY in advance and ask U to forgive my ESL mistakes. Best Wishes, 🤩👏🐝
Last month I waited for my kit to come before watching your unboxing...I couldn't do it again this month 😂 As much as I love the surprise, I love watching you unbox and make your cards. Gives me ideas before I even have my kit! I loved all of these cards! I actually think my favorite was the one you sanded, I never thought to do that! I may partially copy your idea for the merry and bright, but I want blues and purples with that gold, and maybe a smaller sentiment. Love you Cathy ❤
Cathy these are wonderful! My favorites are the purple sanded one, the gradient tree, and the gold/buttercream one! I initially saw the SSS post of this new kit and saw the photos of your cards as inspiration and thought - Oooooh how did she do that?! I always love to try to figure out who the designer is at first glance, and how it’s done! Love them! ❤ thanks for all you do!
For the purple one: At first I thought you swiped white ink over the top, but it’s so delicate in areas, so I wasn’t sure. So happy to see that it’s even easier than I thought !
Oops, Cathy did it again…*sang in my Britney Spears voice*. You totally convinced me that I NEED this kit! Love, love, love your projects. As always, you bring these kits to life and are a total enabler, in the best way ever. :)
Glad I have the subscription especially since it seems like it ran out (the good thing about having the subscription you have the option to not purchase after seeing it released so it is a win win as far as subscriptions go)
Hi Cathy❤️ love these cards you made. There is some cute card stock in this box😉. I have a question for you…Did you use a sewing machine on the border of two of your cards? I love that touch!😊❤. If so, do you know if the card-stock can damage the sewing machine? Thanks for your input👍. Have a super day! Lynda
If you’ll put some low-tack tape “ears” on your card (stuck or the backside, of course) you can pick up the card over and over without getting oily fingerprints on it.
I cancelled my subscription for the same reason. The kits were very expensive and then when the Nov kit arrived and I saw that the normal 6x6 patterned papers had been cut down to 4x6, that cemented my decision.
So sorry the kit did not meet your expectation. The pricing for these is truly a big cost savings. The stand alone product usually equals anywhere from $70 to $90.
Hi Cathy. Love your videos and particularly enjoying this one…most beautiful use of the items in the kit. Can u tell me what pin your are using in your fine tip glue bottle? I’m trying to find something like this that i can use to keep my tip unclogged and sealed.
I couldn’t see the pin Cathy used (didn’t have my glasses on & watching on phone lol), but as long as you get a pin that is stainless steel, it should work! Non-stainless will rust.
Just a quick question: is there a reason that you didn't stick the "Happy Holidays" to some cardstock instead of removing the stick and then glueing it? Does that make sense? Why not use the natural stickiness of the sticker?
I actually thought about that while I was doing it but the main reason is that I didn't want to have any sticky edges at all and I knew I would not be able to cut the card stock perfectly to fit so I just did it this way!
I watched until the box was opened. This is the third box in a row I will pass on. It's nice, but my Christmas cards are done, and I believe most crafters are also in the same place. Simon Says is my favorite boxes but you are so behind with your themed boxes that they aren't worth waiting a year to use them. Just an opinion from one user.
Lovely! What a great variety of different techniques. My favorite card is the last one - love that pop of red! thanks for sharing. ;-) Warmly, Lynne
OMG Cathy, you crack me UP! Love your sense of humor AND your talent of course! "It's two ~ two ~ two shows (mints) in one." (Showing my age quoting an old Certs commercial!).

Oh who doesn't love an old CERTS reference?
Those cards are beautiful! I love them all, but I think the last one is my favorite.
They are all so different, my favourite is the tree😊xxx
Kathy you are amazing I love how you make cards so simple
Glad you like them!
Cathy, great cards. My favorites are the red one. Thanks 😊 🫂😊
You make me laugh when you try something and then your surprised at how good it looks. 😂. You always make such lovely cards. 🎄
Love your cards and you at so happy you always make me so happy.
BEAUTIFUL CARDS!!!!!😊 🎉🎉😊
The Noel looks great
Happy Holidays everybody ❤
I enjoy your videos, you have so much fun creating. In fact, I subscribed to Simon's kit so I could stamp along with you. Thanks for all you do to inspire others💕💕💕
Thank you so much!
My fav is the last one but I love them all!❤❤❤
I loved all the cards.
I think the pearls would make great ornaments on the tree stamp.
I love that you're a Twilight fan, Cathy! and when you bring it up, it just puts a smile on my face!!! And as always, your style is so beautiful. Love it!
One of my favorite of all the series.
What a great set of cards from an awesome kit! These unboxing videos are my FAVE!
Glad you like them!
Cathy, these cards are amazing. You always do such a great job with these kits. I could watch you all day. I am really looking forward to this kit. I love all the cards, but my 2 favorites are the Holiday Cheer and Merry & Bright followed by the beautiful tree. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!🎄🎅
Tiny seed beads where the dots are on the green Happy Holidays tree. 😮😊
Oh that would be cute!!!!
Absolutely beautiful love them all my favorites are the snowflakes absolutely obsessed with them
Love all the cards. I think the red dots makes the last one. Like you, the tree card is my favorite.
Loving the Snowflakes cards😊
I said it the only purchases from. Ow on are Simon and Gina. I already ordered and this time I was smart and got the dies to go with them. Hopefully they’ll get here quick so next week I can play. No work just cooking and hopefully crafting until the kids get here
Amazing must do cards!
Wonderful cards
2 & 3 tied for my fav.

I have this kit so I’m so glad you made such cute cards!!
Loved them all but the tree is stellar!! You are an amazing card maker!!!
Really beautiful cards Cathy! You really did a beautiful job. :)

AWESOMENESS!!! Love all your cards but your snowflake background pattern was stunning!!! TY😊
Love the simplicity
you are amazing I love watching you do the Simon Says kits and this kit I can't wait to get
That tree! Love it. Looking forward to this one.
Cathy, sorry about my previous comment. My inner sailor/truck driver/construction worker/grandfather came out🤬😮😢 It’s a bad pain day and YT pushed me right over the edge😂 Had been looking forward to your video & it was the highlight of my day.
You never have to apologize to me, Sailor Sue! xoxo

I'm so glad!
Such a fun video! Thank you ❤
Loved the purple card , the one you were going to throw ❤
Love all of these cards. Comes in really handy this year. Thanks so much for sharing.
These are gorgeous and doable. Thanks for sharing. You’re the best.
The tree! Love it.
OMG. You are hilarious… “I keep trying to make fetch happen!” 90s pop culture ❤
So glad someone caught that! hahaha
Fabulous cards Cathy. TY
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!! I always really like your unboxing videos, but THIS one was just awesome! ❤❤
Love the simplicity of your cards…inspired I am 😊
Loving the ornaments❤
Stunning as always!!!
I have disposable (medical) gloves that I use when I don’t fingerprints on something, or if I am doing an especially messy technique and don’t want it all over my fingers
smart!
I think the 'almost tossed' card was my favorite! And that green....yum. It looks so striking with your tree card.
I did order the kit. Cathy your cards are adorable. TU! For sharing……
I'm loving your makes!!! I'm learning a lot. But, as a beginner, I have a Q : When U add a writing panel inside? ( usually for which dark colors )? I saw it for the black, .... I feel that the red and green call for those panels.... I do TY in advance and ask U to forgive my ESL mistakes. Best Wishes, 🤩👏🐝
I sometimes add a white panel of cardstock on the inside!
I love them all now that I finished watching the video!!!!!! Can't wait until I get my kit!!!!!
I agree the tree is simple but elegant
great caeds
The Christmas tree and Santa cards are my favorites but love the different inspirations you made with one kit and stamp set 🌲❄️🎄🎅🏼

For the purple one: At first I thought you swiped white ink over the top, but it’s so delicate in areas, so I wasn’t sure. So happy to see that it’s even easier than I thought !
I also can’t wait to try that gradient inking technique on all kinds of images!
Love your cards and sense of humor!!! Love watching all your videos. You give me lots of inspiration.
All the cards are just lovely😊
2nd Card: I thought you were going to say… “You’re doing it wrong”😂😂😂
Love this December kit Cathy your cards are beautiful
Hello from sunny California!😎
I took my break just to watch this. Your awesome 😊
Will have to see you on replay 😢
I'll be on a walk in Laurier Woods a special trail in North Bay Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Oops, Cathy did it again…*sang in my Britney Spears voice*. You totally convinced me that I NEED this kit! Love, love, love your projects. As always, you bring these kits to life and are a total enabler, in the best way ever. :)
Hope you like it!
WOW! You went rogue today and your cards came out so wonderful. These products are so pretty and seem easy to work with. Thanks so much.
I ordered it before this live! I am glad I did :)
Glad I have the subscription especially since it seems like it ran out (the good thing about having the subscription you have the option to not purchase after seeing it released so it is a win win as far as subscriptions go)
L:ove all of these cards. This is an awesome card kit!
;;;;

No, they came that way!

Ohhhhh. that is smart!!!
I wasn’t going to get it however…. I did ! thank you for your video can’t wait to create.

Kathy where did you buy the snips you used to get the die cuts apart?
Oh, they are from Hero Arts: • Metal Snippers

What is your card stock on when you are blending?
Neenah Solar White Classic Crest 110#
Hi Cathy I think you so funny
I’m new to this, if I joined the card club will I get this?
We try to start all new subscriptions with the current kit while supplies last! I'm not 100% sure there are kits left.
May I ask what size Misti you use in your videos please? Thank you💜
Much of the time I use the Mini in my videos, but I have both sizes.
love to know how much to buy these sets in Australia or can you ?
Simon Says Stamp ships internationally!
Hi Cathy. Love your videos and particularly enjoying this one…most beautiful use of the items in the kit. Can u tell me what pin your are using in your fine tip glue bottle? I’m trying to find something like this that i can use to keep my tip unclogged and sealed.
It was sent to me as a gift, so I don't know what to tell you!
Thanks, Cathy 😃
I couldn’t see the pin Cathy used (didn’t have my glasses on & watching on phone lol), but as long as you get a pin that is stainless steel, it should work! Non-stainless will rust.
@@rebeccah1635thank you very much😃
Hi Cathy Z 👋
Clean and simple cards, just the way you need them when you're making them by the 100 😅
I made it, yay 😂
Just a quick question: is there a reason that you didn't stick the "Happy Holidays" to some cardstock instead of removing the stick and then glueing it? Does that make sense? Why not use the natural stickiness of the sticker?
I actually thought about that while I was doing it but the main reason is that I didn't want to have any sticky edges at all and I knew I would not be able to cut the card stock perfectly to fit so I just did it this way!
@@czdesign oh, ok. Thanks!
Q ho much does this Christmas box cost?
$39.99!
Hello there 😊
Sorry Cathy I thought I had commented in the live chat 😅
Why can't I see people commenting brb
Ha, ha, ha, it’s too junky I don’t want your card! 😅 😂 ha ha ha
Says no one ever!! 😂
I watched until the box was opened. This is the third box in a row I will pass on. It's nice, but my Christmas cards are done, and I believe most crafters are also in the same place. Simon Says is my favorite boxes but you are so behind with your themed boxes that they aren't worth waiting a year to use them. Just an opinion from one user.
Thanks for the feedback!
I'm not done.
Some here. Mine came 5 days before the January kit is released.
