    Brutus Monroe shared a tip. When you are blending, Tap your blending brush on glass or a silicon mat or even a piece of plastic. There is less wasted ink then when you tap off on paper.😊. Just thought I would share.

    My friends expect me to spend a long time making each card, so this is right up my alley. Love the gradient colors on the letters. Agree with comment about dry embossing instead of actually cutting out the letters on base card, but I wouldn't probably have thought of it beforehand. Great card! TFS

  • @cynthiapoudrette8436
    @cynthiapoudrette8436 Před rokem +5

    Super cute! Craft was an excellent call! Maybe instead of die cutting the base letters, just use your embossing mat with the die to get the impression of them to save the hassle of fighting with the little pieces.

    • @bethbenson1931
      @bethbenson1931 Před rokem

      Great alternative. I often forget to emboss with the dies.

    I love your Christmas Tree die design! I hadn’t seen this before. It would truly make a lovely card and I like cute cards that take time. I’m not a mass production type of gal. So I try to make lots of Christmas cards, but each one is different. It’s fun! Thank you for showing your die!

  • @flashback528
    @flashback528 Před rokem

    The kraft base is great! JM might have put adhesive backing on before diecutting, put the press & seal on top, positioned it all over the first layer and poked the letters down and out onto the layer below … if that makes sense…

  • @camicoll8934
    @camicoll8934 Před rokem

    I've found that if you don't want to push out all the letters and glue them individually you can put the glue on the 1st layer then position next layer with negative space still around it and poke the letters right onto the glue. Saves quite a bit of time.

  • @suesmith2353
    @suesmith2353 Před rokem

    Cathy, I really like the style of this card. The top layer of the 3 shades of green turned out smashingly beautiful. I was so ready to hear Christmas music when you said you were going to play music!! Oh Christmas Tree would have been terrific !! 😉💚❤

    I love how tickled you were on how it turned out. It is a beautiful card! I think craft was a great call. I would have liked to have seen it on black as well just to see it . I would have also liked to have seen some gems on it before you,just place them, not glue them, to see how it looked. Thanks for sharing.

  • @kimgrimes632
    @kimgrimes632 Před rokem +1

    Beautiful card! Probably more patience required than I have most day-mainly because I’m incredibly slow when it comes to card making. So it was funny when you mentioned at the end that it didn’t need more shine. I concur. What was funny to me is the monochrome gradient at first look at the thumbnail for the video looked to me like you used a green metallic foil for the top layer of letters, but it was just a visual fluke and my bad eyes playing games with me. Love those cool greens-I guess I tend to refer to those as gray-greens, whether or not that’s true-just my take. Another beautiful card Cathy!
