Great video Mary!! My motto for this year is "don't buy more in 2024" so I'm really trying to use all the supplies I have rather than buy more. So this video was perfect to remind me how many ways to use the crafty goodies I already have. You always inspire me and I love your videos and classes!!!😊
YAY that's the goal; I want us to use what we have! . I like your mantra! :)
I love watching your videos Mary , they are very inspiring. Thank you for all the downloads and for sharing so much information with us .🌸🌹
You are so welcome! Thanks for this kind encouragement
I so love watching your videos and learning from you Mary. Thank you so much for sharing your videos. Susan from Clarkston, Michigan. 🥰🤗
Thank you so much! You are always so encouraging! I appreciate you
This is so full of great ideas. This is a video I will reference again and again. Thank you for sharing.
What a great compliment thank you so much!
Love the dry embossing technique I need to pull out some of my folders and play again.
YES, so so fun!
Awesome techniques, Mary! My word of warning about watercolor & emboss resist. Last year, I made 4 versions of a holiday card design. Basically all the same design, but with a couple of different greetings. I used white embossing powder on watercolor paper for emboss resist on the greetings, then watercolored over it with watercolor paints. (This was all inspired by a live that Kristina Werner had done using that technique that week. As I recall, hers worked as intended.) Now, I don't know if the type of watercolor or staining quality of any given color makes a difference, but my white embossing turned kind of a pale bluey-green - basically a lighter version of the paint colors I'd used. I tried carefully & gently going over the embossing with a damp Q-tip, but it didn't clean it up. I was running out of time for holiday card making - this was in December - and I now had multiple panels that were "ruined." I even tried doing the iron-off embossing technique, to see if it would remove the stained heat embossing & leave the white paper underneath showing white. That just seemed to kind of melt some of the embossing into the watercolor paper - rather than the copy paper I had over it - & slightly blurred the greetings. But by then I figured I was in it to win it, so I ended up getting out my white gel pen & doing damage control with that. They weren't great in the end, but as Gina K's husband says, they were better than horrible & I just went with them. I don't know if the recipients even noticed the mess that I saw, but lesson learned. When doing emboss resist with never-before-used-by-me supplies, do a small test FIRST, before making a massive commitment & ending up with disastrous results on your finished project/element. I actually would have been better off heat embossing the greeting AFTER painting the panels. But with inks - either blending or doing "watercoloring" with them - it probably would be fine. Other than that, I have nothing but good things to say/think about what you demonstrated! :) Anyway, thank you for sharing. I forget if I ever thanked you for the lovely card you sent me in reply to the Christmas card I sent you, but I do really appreciate it! I usually have a cat sharing my lap with my computer, which makes typing comments on videos hard. Hence my uncertainty if I was able to type a thank you comment on one of your videos before now. He is not here today, though, so you get rambling me. LOL Take care, & I hope you have a fantabulous day! :)
Thanks so much for adding this; I hadn't considered it before but will for sure now. :) I'm so glad my card made it to you! YAY! Thank YOU for yours.
I'm using a bad cricut mat that i cut to 6×6 to use to hold cards so i can make them. I'm making stencils and dies out of the Dollar Tree cutting mats and coloring the designs with eye shadow and spraying Aqua Net hair spray to stop from rubbing off, when necessary. I agree, time to use what i have! Thanks for the video, Mary!
YAY thank you so much for sharing all these ideas! I appreciate you
Mary, another awesome video!! This was so very helpful!! I love 3D embossing folders!! I am just using what I have instead of buying new!! I have so many things that I have brought and have not used them!! This will help me use what I have!! Thanks so much!!
YES, that's the message for 2024...let's get crafting! :)
Mary, thank you so much for taking the time to reply ! I just tried press n seal on some of my new Simon Hurley paste and we'll see what again thank you, I know your time is very valuable.

Just finished watching your video. I am guilty of stockpiling backgrounds, but they are just so fun to make. You reminded me of some I wanted to try so I guess I'll get busy and craft.
By the way your hair looks so cute.
Thanks for all of your inspiration!
YAY! I know I started off the video about making backgrounds and proceeded to make a ton more. ahhahah Thanks so much, I actually just chopped off like 5 inches. Needed a refresh

Mary, this is great, I just wish I could stick to my commitment of no more buying supplies.
I really appreciate your effort and dedication to these tutorials.
You can do it, just pull out what you have and start playing! I know it's hard
I watched this great video when my to do list for the week is to declutter my craft area. I was initially concerned that it would make me feel less like reducing but I think that I will use it as one of the guidelines for deciding what will allow me to get back to crafting instead of shopping for supplies!
This is so awesome! I have become a mater purger lately and still have SOOO much stuff but the positive side of things is that I feel very inspired to get in there and not so overwhelmed!
And there was your sweet face for joy with my coffee! :) Wonderful, informative video darlin. Have a wonderful day! Garden season is kicking in up here on the mountain. Not much card making time right now.
YAY coffee together! lol Thank you so much

Thank you so very much! :)
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary… I need to do this in so many areas. I purchase the parts I need, or purchase and gather all the parts I need to make something. But before I can get a project completed something will happen that keeps the from finishing the project I will have a million and one things come up and I end up putting the project away. I do put it all away together and I don’t forage in it to find pieces for other things. How do I not let the interruptions force me into stopping?
This is tough for those of us juggling a lot. But I have learned to be okay with stopping my projects at certain points. I used to be really bothered by it but I know that I'll return soon as I can. I don't know if that helps. :)
@@marypolancodesigns I had thought I would slow down, say no to people, and stick to a project until it was completed. That seems like the mature way to deal with the projects and interruptions. However, now I find myself looking at ceramic kilns. Let’s face it… if it’s not one thing it’s everything. 🫣
I love your tips!! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Great techniques Mary!
Thanks so much! YAY!
Fabulous ideas. Thank you so much 😊
You are most welcome :)

Awesome ideas!

Another great one.
Thank you so very much for this encouragement! :)
Cool techniques! Thanks for showing all the different ways we can use the same product! What is the maker of the birch tree embossing folder? I did not see it linked.
I believe I got that from Stampin Up about 15 years ago so I couldn't find it for you
@@marypolancodesigns Thanks for the info!
I really enjoyed this video. tfs💜
I'm so glad! Thank you so very much!
Thank you!!
You're very welcome!
I tried to get your PDF on backgrounds, but it wouldn't send link to download.
Shoot me an email at mary@marypolancodesigns.com and I'll get that to you
Hi, Mary. Good to see you again.I always enjoy your videos. But, I have to make a comment here. In the last card you made use of cosmic shimmer. I have a complaint about that company. And I spend a lot of money on that alone. I called them and all they told me to do was add water to it. It made it even worse because it made it lumpy. So, anyhow, I just wanted to let you know about that. I don't know if anyone else has had a problem or just me.
I've had issues with really old containers during out and water never helped me personally. To prevent that, take a piece of press and seal and put it under the cap. You won't run into that problem anymore. I hope that helps. 😊
I requested the bkg pdf and still have not received an email with it?
Okay send me an email at mary@marypolancodesigns.com
I might not see another message here so be sure to email me. 😃
@@marypolancodesigns thanks! Email sent
youre so cute. i love your videos
