Hi Pamela - The thing that amazes me about scraps is just how many cards you can make when you start with a pile of scraps. I didn't cut a full sheet of paper for over a year. And now whenever I do, I make all the paper up into cards and refuse to refile scraps. It helps if you have a large assortment of embellishments don't you think?!
Our group does cards for the nursing home residents for Christmas, Easter, Mother's and Father's Days, and Autumn. Cute tree card. So many ways to use that design with papers, bling and embossing folders. Thank you for sharing.
Just found your site and truly enjoyed watching you make trees out of scraps (we always have scraps) for Christmas cards - something I need to start ASAP. Thank you for this fun idea.
I made one of these after watching your video. I am definitely using these for some of my cards this year. I have so much Christmas paper and will be able to use some of it up. Thanks!
Hi Marki and Welcome to My Channel! I always end up making several of these every year. For one thing they are just FUN to make and using scraps is just a Win-Win in my book! Are you enjoying the Thursday Scrap Series going on this Fall? I started it several weeks ago...
Love your relaxing video with this great idea for scraps. So glad I found your video. I’ll definitely watch your earlier ones. I am definitely a senior stamper - 73 y. o. Thank you for sharing.
This is the first time I've seen your tutorials and I just love your cards. You have given me great ideas to make my Christmas cards. Thank you so much, and I look forward to seeing more of your tutorials.
Hi Val and Welcome to My Channel! There is a lot of great content on the channel already, if you feel like backwatching some. I try to put out a video Sunday afternoon (USA time), but am presently in the process of a move so that may be a bit sporadic. See you soon!
You are welcome! I hope you get some of those used up this year. I have been working hard on mine for a solid year now and have seen my scraps get under control slowly but surely!
I also just come across your video. Your voice is so calming and I will admit, I love your accent. I will be sure to subscribe and keep watching. Thank you.
Awww ... Thanks CCL! I'm glad you're here. There is a lot of content on the channel to backwatch if you have time/interest. I try to put a new video out on Sunday afternoon (USA time), so come back soon!!
Hi Jennifer - This is a great way to use up some smallish pieces of pretty paper you have left over at the end of the year. It really doesn't even need to be "Christmas" paper. Merry Christmas to you also!!
Hi Cathy and Welcome to My Channel! I have a number of playlists which include some of my favorite crafter's videos as well as my own. Is there an area you are particularly interested in?
I like that too and it went away when I changed the intro/outtake clips this past year. I may need to bring it back in 2024 - Thanks fo rthe nudge Lauren!!
Do you happen to have a place where we can post our finished projects? I'd love to share a couple of the cards I made using your videos.@@SeniorSusieStamps
These cards are so neat, Julia! It will make a great afternoon project for us. I just gave them a trimmer so they can practice with their own trimmer and, of course, I have lots of paper! Thanks for sharing your talent and experience. I have the snowflake embossing folder so must remember to use heavy paper. ❤️🇨🇦
@@SeniorSusieStamps i will but probably won’t see them until the fall. I find using a separate piece for embossing is easiest and then attach to the card. 🥰
G'Day Sue!! Glad you found my channel, you are in good company with several of your neighbors. Welcome!! There is plenty of content on the channel if you feel like back watching some. And I try to put out a new video Sunday afternoon (USA time) Monday AM for you - so Come Back Soon!!
I hope you'll try some Patricia! The first one may be a bit fidgety but they grow on you fast. There lots of other videos on the channel if you have time and interest to backwatch. Happy crafting!
Something that helps keep the paper from cracking when embossed, is to spritz it lightly with water before running it through your machine. That allows the fibers to stretch without breaking. Just don't use too much water. Love these simple cards, too.
I just subscribed. I love your cards and using scraps. You have a calming voice. I never know what and how to do the inside. Maybe you will cover this. Thank you. I look forward to other videos of yours.
Thank you Barbara and Welcome to My Channel. I will try to include more insides for you in future. But on a card like this you have to let the outside dry before working on the inside, or do the inside first. I am not usually that coordinated! LOL
You were a surprise find to go with my morning coffee! I love this idea. My hint is that I will often spritz the cardstock with water to prevent the CS fibres breaking

Hi Julia, Your Christmas cards are simply stunning, and it is a surprise to see no traditional Christmas colours in sight! 🌲✨🌲 I have a couple of Christmas paper pads 6 x 6 with different colours pinks and blues, and earth tones which would look lovely to make these cards. Perhaps for me in Australia I can leave off the snow...! 😊 When I saw the gold stars ✨✨✨on your desk I felt very nostalgic as it took me back to primary school where we received gold stars that size for turning in our homework, and for our essays although back in the late 1960's early 70's we called them compositions. Julia can I please ask what is fun foam, and how do you use it? Wishing you a blessed day, and happy crafting from your Aussie friend, Gloria 🥰🐨🦘🌲✨🌲💖💝💕
Hi Gloria - I love making Christmas cards and have to start early because the list for donation is longer than usual. And then of course there is my personal list... Fun foam is foam sheets frequently with adhesive backing that can be colored or glittered foam - it is about 1/8 inch thick. And usually it comes in A2/4 size sheets in multicolor packs. Search amazon?? and you will see what I mean. It's very useful for diecutting flowers and backing cards fully - especially those that are warping a bit. I always associate Christmas with snow, but have seen some fun surfing Santa cards that are from warm climates. It's strange to think you are experiencing winter while we are pushing 100! Take care my friend and we'll chat soon, Julia

Hi Michele - Welcome to My Channel! I typically use Art Glitter Glue when I want things to catch and hold quicker. Otherwise, I use Books by Hand PVA glue for a little bit more slip time. Both are available on amazon. The Books by Hand is much more reasonably priced than Art Glitter Glue and I reach for it the most.

@@1963smg I use Avery labels on the back of all my cards for donation. So I have a great source for release paper. By using that to put strips of 1 inch foam tape on, you have an easy cut to measure unit that makes it a quick clean cut. And it costs a whole lot less than dimensionals!!!

What about the Christmas Tree that you made half circle. Then you made 2 folds. I missed where the fold were on the half circle. The Trees are beautiful. Where can I find the numbers to make folds. Mary Pennington
Hi Mary - That is different video. And I will mention that you do have to work with the folds a bit on those. Here is a link to that video if you want to watch - ua-cam.com/video/l95Naywg0hI/v-deo.html
Hi Myra - My favorite glue is Art Glitter Glue. It is a bit expensive, but holds exceptionally well and dries just quick enough. Be sure and use the fine tip attachment with the stainless pin. It limits the flow so it is much more controllable.

@@SeniorSusieStamps Thanks Julia. My son lives in Wisconsin and when he comes home he always brings me lots of craft stuff. He is coming home permanently in September.
Welcome Tinkerbell! There is plenty of content on the channel if you want to go back and catch up. And I try to put out a new video on Sunday afternoon (USA) so Come Back Soon!!
I love this idea! I did find it hard to watch you glue along the fold line on the first card when it seems it could be easier to lay it flat, or am I missing something? Also only one tree sits high on the card, so there any benefit in doing this to the other two? When you do the sentiment, is there any benefit in using the tab as it seems once its glued it sits flat on the tree and cant sit any higher but not as easy to see in the video so please say if Im wrong about this as I dont intend to offend ❤
Those trees in the first card do all lift off the page a bit. The outside two appear to lay flat, but there is some lift to the tree itself on the outside edge, unless it gets completely flattened in the mail. The "gusset" keeps the sentiment from being bent when the tree is lifted a bit. It also somewhat locks the tree in the bend up when the gusset is glued down to the tree. Sorry it was hard to watch the fold gluing LOL. Sometimes it's a challenge to show what I'm doing.
Absolutely - Just fold them in half and burnish the fold with your fingernail. It works just fine, the fold is a bit more challenging sometime, but no worries!
Hi Jenny - The glue is called Art Glitter Glue. I am in the USA and am not familiar with UK vendors. I wonder if you can search for the glue by name? The little white dots are actually punched out paper. Hope this helps!
For these cards I would use Art Glitter glue, because it tends to tighten up quicker. In general I really like Books By Hand PVA glue. It is very reasonably prices and goes a long way. Here is a link if you're interested - www.amazon.com/dp/B00NZGD6OS?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-reorder-t1_k1_1_15&=&crid=3EL5HUDWIHDGD&sprefix=books%2Bby%2Bhand%2Bp&th=1

@@1963smg I use Avery labels on the back of all my cards for donation. So I have a great source for release paper. By using that to put strips of 1 inch foam tape on, you have an easy cut to measure unit that makes it a quick clean cut. And it costs a whole lot less than dimensionals!!!
Great idea love the cards
Thank you Patircia! Super Easy and Quick cards for sure!!
Sweet cards Susie. Thank you.
Thanks Jukes!

❤Thank you for this idea!😊
Hi Elise - You are so welcome! These cards use up a few scraps and are fun to make!
What about the Christmas Tree that you made half circle. Then you made 2 folds. I missed where the fold were on the half circle.
The Trees are beautiful. Where can I find the numbers to make folds. Mary Pennington
Hi Mary - That is different video. And I will mention that you do have to work with the folds a bit on those. Here is a link to that video if you want to watch - ua-cam.com/video/l95Naywg0hI/v-deo.html
So pretty. What glue are you using?
Hi Myra - My favorite glue is Art Glitter Glue. It is a bit expensive, but holds exceptionally well and dries just quick enough. Be sure and use the fine tip attachment with the stainless pin. It limits the flow so it is much more controllable.
Great cards. I just found you too so I've subscribed. I love your accent. Ruth down under.
G'Day Ruth!! There are several faithful followers from your neck of the world - Welcome!! There is a lot of content on the channel if you would like to watch some of the older videos. And I try to put out a new video Sunday afternoons (USA time) - Monday morning for you - I think we are about 16 hours behind you. So, Come Back Soon!! Julia
@@SeniorSusieStamps Thanks Julia. My son lives in Wisconsin and when he comes home he always brings me lots of craft stuff. He is coming home permanently in September.
@@ruthjames715 That is quite the commute - LOL! I know you will be glad to have him home!!
@@SeniorSusieStamps Yes I will. He's a psychologist so he is going to get a part-time job here.
Love th we cards. I just became a new subbie
Welcome Tinkerbell! There is plenty of content on the channel if you want to go back and catch up. And I try to put out a new video on Sunday afternoon (USA) so Come Back Soon!!
I love this idea! I did find it hard to watch you glue along the fold line on the first card when it seems it could be easier to lay it flat, or am I missing something? Also only one tree sits high on the card, so there any benefit in doing this to the other two? When you do the sentiment, is there any benefit in using the tab as it seems once its glued it sits flat on the tree and cant sit any higher but not as easy to see in the video so please say if Im wrong about this as I dont intend to offend ❤
Those trees in the first card do all lift off the page a bit. The outside two appear to lay flat, but there is some lift to the tree itself on the outside edge, unless it gets completely flattened in the mail. The "gusset" keeps the sentiment from being bent when the tree is lifted a bit. It also somewhat locks the tree in the bend up when the gusset is glued down to the tree. Sorry it was hard to watch the fold gluing LOL. Sometimes it's a challenge to show what I'm doing.
Sooo pretty! Thank you!🌷
And Easy!! 🙃
Simple. Nice.
And Easy!!
If you haven’t got a score board is there another way of doing the trees 🌲
Absolutely - Just fold them in half and burnish the fold with your fingernail. It works just fine, the fold is a bit more challenging sometime, but no worries!
Thank you for the quick reply I also forgot I have a curling tool that might work , not very good with crafting I’m afraid xx
love these cards
Thank you! They are Easy and Quick!!
Very nice!
Thank you!
Lovely
Thanks Christine!
very nice
Thanks Missie - Those cards were very well received!!
May I ask what is that tube of white drops called please and where could I buy it in the UK
Hi Jenny - The glue is called Art Glitter Glue. I am in the USA and am not familiar with UK vendors. I wonder if you can search for the glue by name? The little white dots are actually punched out paper. Hope this helps!
@@SeniorSusieStamps yes it does, many thanks Susie. I love your cards
@@jennyreynolds30 Thank you so much!
Julia, these are so cute. Thanks so much. 😊🇨🇦 PS, I love your accent. Where in the US are you from?
I live in Tennessee. Those trees are a great use of scraps and they make really quick cards!
I also wondered where you are. I’m in Mobile AL. Love your cards.
Thank you!
Fun!
Thanks Lillian - The first one is a bit fidgity, but the rest work just fine after you figure out the glue amount to use!
What kind of glue do you use?
For these cards I would use Art Glitter glue, because it tends to tighten up quicker. In general I really like Books By Hand PVA glue. It is very reasonably prices and goes a long way.

What is the pink glue gun called please, never seen one of those. 😮xxx
That is a Scotch ATG gun - I'm not sure they make the pink one anymore. I buy the generic refills in bulk from Tape Depot (USA). Here are a couple links - www.google.com/search?q=atg+tape+gun&rlz=1C1CHZN_enUS964US964&oq=ATG+tape+gun&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCggAEAAY4wIYgAQyCggAEAAY4wIYgAQyCggBEC4YgAQY5QQyBwgCEAAYgAQyCAgDEAAYFhgeMggIBBAAGBYYHjIICAUQABgWGB4yCAgGEAAYFhgeMggIBxAAGBYYHjIICAgQABgWGB4yCAgJEAAYFhge0gEJMTE0NDhqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 and www.tapedepot.com/product/standard-atg-tape-56720/
