Yes wow a different, when you painted it black. It's beautiful 😍. Laugh a little of Peanut, such a sweet story ❤️. I'm impressed by himself telling he had broken the cd 💿 😄. Great job both you Kelly and Peanut ❤️
This card is stunning. The black coloring really made a difference. It took a nice card to a whoa! Card. Layering stamps: I've never been a fan. I can't get them to line up either.😉. As for stamps with matching stencils: I have one and that's enough. I can't see investing in them because I need to practice coloring.😊 Great video. Thank you for the ideas.
Holy cow, your card is BEAUTIFUL. You have some of THE best ideas Kelly. I've never seen anything like this before. Coloring black ink in the negative spaces made a huge difference. While both are pretty, I honestly prefer the 2nd one! If I hadn't watched you make this card I would have thought you colored each flower individually. TFS!
Very cute and love the coloring……what? With brushes and distressed inks! I love the way you bring it all together and they are just stunning. Gonna try this……..thanks for sharing! Love the black contrast…..so pretty!
Good parenting that what children have to do in the real world if they break something that does not belong to them, congratulations on that choice...excellent card and way teaching how to put it together so everyone can understand very well done. Peace and love to all...
Loved your card!!! As you were talking about handing most of your cards out instead of mailing them I realized I mail most of mine.I have 13 great neices and nefews every holiday I make them fast easy cards and mail them out they love getting mail of their own .
Wow! What a beautiful card! Colouring the background certainly made the images really "pop" and gave it a very dramatic, striking appearance! Thank you for a great video!
Gorgeous card! You really had me smiling and laughing with your son’s dilemma. I have sons and 9 grandchildren so I know the crazy s tuff they get into. I’m glad you didn’t have to take drastic action to get the CD off his finger.🤣🤗😉
Yep- the drama of that is yummy! Coloring the edges & negative space with black marker made a tremendous difference. So beautiful! Kiddos do such random things sometimes - I think it’s safe to blame it on the frontal lobe of brain not being fully developed yet! That said, I bet he won’t do that particular random thing again lol. Kudos to him for doing the responsible thing afterwards, and kudos to you for training him to be that way! And while I’m at it, Kudos to Eric for being the kind of dad Nathan felt safe to tell (sadly, not all dads are).
It was so refreshing to hear you say you had trouble lining up layering stamps. I've given up on them, beautiful as they can be. When you first showed the card, I thought you had done it on black card, but couldn't figure out how you got the vibrant color. Gorgeous
Wow!!! The black coloring really was the hit of the card. I would not have thought to do that. Thanks for sharing your many talents, skills and knowledge with us,
Beautiful card. When you were coloring in all the white spaces with a black marker I thought Kelly WTH?! But once it was all finished, it was not noticeable and looks wonderful. You cracked me up about Peanut’s head stuck in the staircase. Made me think about when my sister put her head into the steering wheel in the family’s VW Bug. Dad had to come down and get her head out. Then the nut put her head back in it to try to figure out how she managed to get it stuck in the first place! 🤣🤣🤦♀️🤦♀️.
great story. Peanut is growing up for sure. I still use my Altenew layering stamps and I just got two layering stencils to try. Slow to the party I know but old dogs are slow to learn new tricks. thanks as always for sharing and all the inspiration.
Beautiful card! I love black with bright colors too. And boys will be boys! It could've been worse. A story about my dad when he was little (probably 3 or 4 yrs old) that always sticks out in my head... He put a bunch of records in a slot in an old furnace. The house started filling up with smoke and no one could figure out why so they got everyone out and called the fire department. When they showed up, there is my dad jumping up and down with excitement yelling "I made the firemen come! I made the firemen come!" 🤣
Great card! I would never have thought you colored in the background if you had not said anything. It really adds so much to the card. A trick I learned as a nurse for removing rings off swollen fingers that may help in such situations. We would use waxed dental floss to wrap around the digit from the ring going down. It compressed the area just below the ring and the waxed floss would give the ring a slick surface to slide onto. It always amazes me what a kid can get into that gets them stuck in some way…and can’t get out of.
Stunning card! Love the color against the black. You are a wonderful Mom Kelly. You are teaching Peanut responsibility in a loving way. He is going to grow up to be a wonderful young man.
Beautiful how the black in the blank spaces around the flowers made them pop. I have just put together the supplies I needed to become a beginning card maker. I hope I can make cards as beautiful as I see watching the UA-cam tutorials like your's, eventually. Thank you.
I LOVE my stamp layering sets. Yes, they can be a tad difficult to line up, but so many companies do things to simplify that process. Even with lining them up they are so fast and so easy to mass produce! And as a side note, I think you're great for teaching your child responsibility. Too many children grow up thinking they are owed something instead of thinking they need to be responsible for something.
Wow! What a difference coloring the background made. This card is absolutely beautiful!!!! You are amazing! Not only as a card maker but you are an amazing Mom. I love that Peanut told Eric when he got home from work. What an honest and conscientious little boy. I wish we had more moms like you! You and Eric are obviously doing a great job! ❤️😻
Love the dramatic color contrast with the black! Kids do some silly things that can result in damage. So glad Peanut's finger is okay. And kudos to him for telling Eric without you needing to encourage him to do so! Great job Mothering!!
Hiya Kelly, I’ve just got a message via gmail saying to contact you on Telegram which I think is a scam… 😢😢 not sure how to report it but I’m sure you’re on the case already
This! Honestly, this is the most appealing card design I’ve seen yet. Your vid came across my feed randomly, and I have subscribed because I am super impressed with your technique and your voice and your relatability! I look forward to more of your content!
Much like you, I find the layering stamps a challenge (actually just decided to throw a set out today as I could not make it work for me) and I MUCH prefer the layering stencils. Thank you for you great videos and inspiration! Kind regards from Germany, Nicola
I love colorful cards on dark backgrounds and this card is stunning! I'm adding the stamp/die/stencil set to my wishlist. As for layered stamps, I have a couple of sets, but I have to admit that I haven't used them as much as I thought I would.
I love how you did this using the base color and then adding the stencil color. Beautiful result! Definitely will try this with my stencils. I am nota big proponent of layering stamps, I find that the stamps have a more “harsh” look than the stenciling effect.
I'm like you in that I prefer to color in stamped images. I usually use Copics and then shade colored pencils over the Copic layer. I also like to watercolor. I do like solid stamps to layer over each other. I honestly do not own many stencils. I have a few that came with the stamps/dies sets. I have enjoyed using the stencils, but I still prefer coloring! I do think sometimes that there are some trendy items that I won't spend money on. I am a long time stamper as in years and years and prefer coloring. But it is good that the industry has other options so that others who might like to do stenciling for example, can participate. And good job with teaching your little guy to be responsible!
Beautiful card, Kelly! I like to color, so I haven’t purchased any of the stencil layering or the dies for layering with colored cardstock. I really enjoy the process of coloring stamped mages, so watching/learning your Copic coloring techniques is a joy.
What a lovely card! Amazing the difference before and after you colored the black background. I liked both but definitely agree the way you did it is dramatic. I like layering stencils if I am stamping flowers just because it’s easier than coloring them. Haven’t tried any layering stamps yet. Thanks for sharing!
Such a pretty card. After years(and years) of stamping I have found my 'happy place' ... coloring :-) So, I don't have any layering stamps, never could get them to work. I have never tried the layering stencils, I love to watch what you do with them ... maybe ?
I absolutely love this card! There's something about beautiful pops of color on black cardstock that just sings to me. Coloring stamped images with colored pencils has been my jam these days. Love it!
I also have trouble aligning layering stamps. I love the layering stencils tho. I also love this card. I thought I’ll have to try that until you started with the black pen. Beautiful card . Your work is beautiful.
Stamping has my heart, so I will never replace them with layering stencils. I think they are 2 totally different looks. Anyway, I love the idea of laying the color down and selectively choosing your layers. This gives a fun look! Thanks for the inspiration.
Yes wow a different, when you painted it black. It's beautiful 😍. Laugh a little of Peanut, such a sweet story ❤️. I'm impressed by himself telling he had broken the cd 💿 😄. Great job both you Kelly and Peanut ❤️
Coloring in the negative spaces really made the flowers pop...
I love the look of this card!
This creation definitely has the WOW factor!
Wow! The black filling in the negative space made a dramatic difference 😮 Beautiful!
Lots of layers of goodness! BEAUTIFUL 😍
Absolutely stunning, I agree, I really like the dramatic difference with the negative space colored black. Fabulous card!
Wow. So bright and beautiful. 👏😊💕
Stunning! Stunning! Gorgeous. Love this.
Stunning card and oh poor peanut, glad he is okay xxx
Love how that extra blending happened!
This card is stunning. The black coloring really made a difference. It took a nice card to a whoa! Card.
Layering stamps: I've never been a fan. I can't get them to line up either.😉.
As for stamps with matching stencils: I have one and that's enough. I can't see investing in them because I need to practice coloring.😊 Great video. Thank you for the ideas.
Adding the black in the negatives areas made this card. Awesome ❤❤❤
Love the black background. This card is very pretty
So creative. Coloring the background was genius!
Absolutely gorgeous! At first, I was not liking the black coloring, but the END RESULT was mind blowing!
Like this card. I really appreciate your detailed explanation about stenciling and how you added "drama" to the card using black.
Beautiful card! The black made it amazing.
Bright and colorful design. You always do an amazing job.
Holy cow, your card is BEAUTIFUL. You have some of THE best ideas Kelly. I've never seen anything like this before. Coloring black ink in the negative spaces made a huge difference. While both are pretty, I honestly prefer the 2nd one! If I hadn't watched you make this card I would have thought you colored each flower individually. TFS!
Kelly the flower is beautiful and I just love you are so down to earth.❤❤
Kelly do you ever reach out and tell someone to text you on tel-gram ? I think someone may be trolling you
Gorgeous card, Kelly. It really popped when you coloured the outline etc. in black. ❤️🇨🇦
WOW!!! Kelly!! Stunning!!
Beautiful card! I love the way you colored the background. It made the whole card pop❤
I am loving the black backgrounds :)

This card is stunning your techniques are so easy to follow. Love ❤️ the rainbow of colours. Glad Peanut was ok TFS Kathy ftom Sydney Australia 👍
Very cute and love the coloring……what? With brushes and distressed inks! I love the way you bring it all together and they are just stunning. Gonna try this……..thanks for sharing! Love the black contrast…..so pretty!
You are absolutely right... the piece is much more dramatic with all the negative space colored black. It's beautiful.
Good parenting that what children have to do in the real world if they break something that does not belong to them, congratulations on that choice...excellent card and way teaching how to put it together so everyone can understand very well done. Peace and love to all...
Amazing card! Love the black!

WOW! Spectacular!
absolutley gorgeous card, it so popped once you coloured the background! Reminds me of when Yana did that so striking! 💖
Yep- the drama of that is yummy! Coloring the edges & negative space with black marker made a tremendous difference. So beautiful!

Absolutely beautiful.
You are so right, after the copic coloring it was so gorgeous

Absolutely gorgeous card Kelly
Wow Loooooovely ,thanks for sharing.
I do them both, I love them both... but my TRUE love is coloring!

Awesome, the black coloring was well worth the time. Thanks Kelly. Raising kids is always an adventure😁
Wow with the black background! I want to try that.
Stunning look, just love it!❤
Absolutely stunning!!😊
Not sure I'd call this quick, but definitely gorgeous!
great story. Peanut is growing up for sure. I still use my Altenew layering stamps and I just got two layering stencils to try. Slow to the party I know but old dogs are slow to learn new tricks. thanks as always for sharing and all the inspiration.
Kelly did you send me an email telling me I won a prize? Just checking its not a scam. thanks.
Beautiful card! I love black with bright colors too. And boys will be boys! It could've been worse.

I love this card.
Love this card, the colors are beautiful. Glad your son's finger was ok and that he stepped up to tell Eric. You are a good mom.

You sound like a wonderful mom, and Peanut sounds like such a great kid! Loved your story as much as your stunning card!😁
GORGEOUS! I never would have thought about blacking out the negative space. Absolutely, beautiful.
Love the dramatic color contrast with the black! Kids do some silly things that can result in damage. So glad Peanut's finger is okay. And kudos to him for telling Eric without you needing to encourage him to do so! Great job Mothering!!
Beautiful card.
Oh this is stunning Kelly….x
Hiya Kelly,
I’ve just got a message via gmail saying to contact you on Telegram which I think is a scam… 😢😢 not sure how to report it but I’m sure you’re on the case already
Very pretty!
Beautiful!
So beautiful and my fav
Love this card 🤩
Gorgeous! Love the bold colors on black. I love layering stencils but also really like layering Stamps
Very beautifully done! The black background coloring you did prior to gluing it down really made it pop! Wow, this is so gorgeous!!
This! Honestly, this is the most appealing card design I’ve seen yet. Your vid came across my feed randomly, and I have subscribed because I am super impressed with your technique and your voice and your relatability! I look forward to more of your content!
This is such a beautiful card! WOW!!! Also, so proud of Peanut! What a great kid 🥰.

It definitely pops after you filled in with the black! Beautiful card Kelly♥️ I really admire your work😊

I love layering stamps and layering stencils. I think there is room for both depending on what look you are going for
I agree! Something for everyone 😊
Another amazing creation! Would love to see you make this card again on black cardstock with oxides!!
I also have trouble aligning layering stamps. I love the layering stencils tho. I also love this card. I thought I’ll have to try that until you started with the black pen. Beautiful card . Your work is beautiful.
