    Love your cards. Have been making this size cards for years. I have a granddaughter who is fascinated with cards like me. To save money I made these cards and used a regular envelope. So cute. Then to my surprise I get on utube and see all these slimline cards as a big hit. Man I should have put it on utube a long time ago. I know it's been 7 years I've been doing this
    Sure saves money

    Cute ideas. I think i spend too much time fussing and stressing over trying to match all the colors and these ideas show that you don't have to agonize over ever detail, just basically "get er done"! I like the volume you were able to turn out and how cute they came out. Also thank you for the idea of making your own ephemera using a heavyweight paper..i think i will be happier with the sturdiness of the die cuts. The other thing that helps me is the "permission" not to have to some how color all of the cut outs...my coloring always looks like a child has done it. 😮

    • @BittyPenny

    I just tried mini slimline cards a few days ago. I like them! They are different, plus people will be surprised to see a card in that size envelope. Using 6x6 paper for them adds so much color! Gotta love them! 🌼

    • @BittyPenny
      @BittyPenny  Před 3 lety

      I agree the size is so much fun. I am having a blast working with them. I do love double sided paper for card bases because it injects color effortlessly. Thanks so much for watching!

  • @SharetheMakewithCaroline
    @SharetheMakewithCaroline Před 3 lety +3

    Using the entire sheet of 6x6 instead of just a card front, genius...I keep a bin of diy embellishments, stamped/die cuts too, using stash instead of buying new. New subscriber.

    • @BittyPenny
      @BittyPenny  Před 3 lety

      Hi Caroline, me too. I am really going to be trying to bust my stash and Destash more this year. I have been such an extreme consumer the last five years as I got started in the hobby. I am trying really hard to break that trend and use more of what I have. I have a mantra that is helping me “love it, leave it” I can really love something, but I don’t have to buy it. Plus it will be there so I can wait and give it time. I am such a work in progress, but I do try.

  • @deebugg6325

      Hey Becky, Welcome to my channel. Yeah I couldn’t rationalize paying those prices for old collections.

    ***NOTE*** You don't have to cut off a 1/2" border strip of paper for a Slimline Mini Card. Just fold the 6x6" patterned cardstock in half for non-directional patterns. Cut directional patterns in half. The card will fit into an inexpensive standard 6¾ envelope [check size] that can be found anywhere including Dollar Tree. A #7 Coin Envelope is, also, the same size as the 6¾ Envie and requires no additional mailing postage for either one. TFS! I'm sharing on my FB Craft Medley group for inspiration!

      @BittyPenny  Před 3 lety +1

      Hey Peach, You are so right. At the time I made this I was trying to make slimline a that would fit in A2 envelopes.

      Thanks so much, Jamie. Cake decorating was an absolute blast it was hard work and long hours because we did about 200 birthday cakes and 50 wedding cakes a week, but man it was fun. I worked with such a fun group of people and the bakery owner was a strong, intelligent and passionate woman. I learned a lot there and if I could make the income I need I would totally do it again. Thanks for watching.

      Hey Niki, They are so much fun and a great way to use up 6x6 paper pads. You could totally through them in with your happy mail for sweet messages. They are the perfect size for some of your embellishments. You could slap one of those bad boys on the front and call it a day. The card would be spectacular. 😉😍👯‍♀️🌈💕

    “Ephemera “? I had to look it up: “items of collectible memorabilia...that were originally expected to have only short-term usefulness or popularity.” New word for me to use. Thanks.
    I like your idea of using black and white “ephemera” on colorful paper. The kid recipients can color them in. 😉

I sometimes go back to small box of my first cards and really see how inspired I was. I also see how much I have grown. I was at the Dollar tree the other day and grabbed some supplies to make 5 or 10 cards. The video will be up on my channel next week. I hope you will come back and check it out.

    From Ottawa in Canada
    I just found you today and I enjoyed your tips on using your 6 x 6 paper pads
    These cards were unique and you should be proud of yourself for their originality. I chuckled when you said that one of your “big box” stores had stopped being a discount store. In Canada where I live we are currently paying about $10+ more over U. S. $ for most craft items (stamps and dies) paper pads can run around $30 for 12” paper pad from Michael’s (Recollections’ brand).

    Love all of the cards. Good idea with black and white images...I am not great at coloring yet so now I think I will get some stamps out.
    I think the paper collections at Tuesday morning are larger now (previous pads had 24 sheets now have 48 in them). I have still found some of the smaller pads with no price increase.

    • @BittyPenny
      @BittyPenny  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi Kim, So glad you found some inspiration to pull the stamps out. I always hope to inspire others to create and use what they have to make beautiful things. The Tuesday Morning thing was so crazy. They use to have a lot of 6x6 and 12x12 pads. This time they only had paper in plastic sleeves. There were about 24 sheets and they were all $14.99. There were maybe 10 paper pads and all the Ephemera had been marked up too. It use to be about $2.99 and now it is $5.99 to $7.99. It just blew my mind. I understand that cost increase, but I felt like doubling was a bit extreme. Honestly it really is a good thing for my budget and overstuffed craft room. Lol.

      @BittyPenny  Před 3 lety

      Hey Heather, Happy Monday! I am so glad you were inspired. These are such a blast to play with for sure. I go back and forth with fussy cutting. I do love the swift cut of the die and I tend to be uneven in my cutting. I love the Brother scan and cut, but it feels like extra work getting it and setting it up for a card. I like to use it when I have big batches. 🥰💕🐝👯‍♀️ Actually, I just got an idea. I think I will stack up new stamps I get that don’t have dies. Stamp them out in batches and run them through. Then I can just add the pieces in with the stamp set and when I am ready to use it I will have some ready. Dang I am glad we had this conversation. Lol! Thanks for starting it. 🤪 Have a great week.

I drive the 45 min to pick up class kits once a month and the two who run the shop are my only in-person craft buddies. Can’t stay long when I visit. I was so happy to find the shop and thinking of being in crops etc. One day it will happen.
