Anyone who enjoys my videos and would like to buy me a coffee, here is a link thanks so much . www.buymeacoff...
Not only do I absolutely love all your designs and REALLY wonderful tips...I adore your wit, humor, and chatter. All these combined makes me want to stay glued to your videos just for the shear joy they bring.
What can I say? Thank you SO much Deanna, I'm delighted that you enjoy my videos!😊❤️❤️
Wow Christine you’ve certainly got some great ideas I love your videos and they never go too long. You are really easy to listen to with a great sense of humour. keep on crafting.
Thank you so much!❤️😊❤️
First of all thank you so much for thinking of those of us with Epileptic fits and other fits which I have. It makes a change to hear people thinking of us. Now on to the cards I absolutely love them both but my heart goes to the one with the butterfly. I love your videos. I have ME and have to rest a lot so watch all your videos. They are all great. Thank you Christine xxxx
Thank you so much, I truly appreciate your comment and am delighted that you enjoy my videos... It pleases me enormously. 😊❤️😊
I really liked your brief description (45 seconds in) of Clean and Simple meets Mixed Media Christine. Lovely cards. Great idea with gilding the charm. I've been really enjoying making my own stencils too.
Sounds like you've been having fun, that's great, thank you.😊
Both color palettes are so beautiful and different; one soft and dreamy and the other bold and bright - love them both. Thank you so much for sharing!
You are so welcome!😊
How lovely to see mixed media tags without grunge which seems to have taken over mixed media to a large extent. Beautiful colours, so effective. Thank you Christine :)
Thank you so much!😊
Puff, puff, catching up after a frantic weekend! And you've worked your layering magic again. Totes Epic! as my Grandies would say! So many tip, tricks and layers to create a stunning result. Your teaching skills are next level Chris - thanks for all the time you spend sharing your knowledge with wit and charm.
You just say the most wonderful things Helen, I'm so happy having you comment on my cards! ❤️😊❤️

If you have a metal rod or skewer you can dampen the ribbon and wrap it around the metal skewer and place in a low temp oven until dry. I'm going to try it with my heat gun--that should work. Used to make hair ribbons for my daughter this way. Beautiful cards as always!
I have done that to make ribbons curl, but this time I wanted to make it look crumpled! 😁
A divine new Distress Oxide colour which I must add to my collection. I have a few of the transluscent embossing powders and I've never used them, the way you did on this elegant and classy card. As always, inspiring and enjoyable to watch. TFS
Thanks Helen, I need to do a little more experimentation methinks! I just bought a few colours!😊😊😊
I really love to watch you make cards with all the different techniques your brilliant.
Thank you so much!😊
Hi Chris - what a fun card. It looked like you were really enjoying yourself and it turned out stunning. Thank you for sharing 😊
It really was great fun, I loved playing! 💙💛💙
Two delightful cards. So interesting how you combine different techniques in such small spaces. Tfs❤
Thanks so much!💙💙💙
your ingenuity, creativity, and imagination are a delight to watch. Very inspirational thank you
Thank you very much!😊
Always interesting to see what you come up with! Always beautiful and always Love everything you do. Thank you!
Thank you so much!😊
Love everything about this card ! 😊
Thanks so much 💙💛💙
love your ideas and enjoy every card you make . have a good day
Thank you! You too!😊
Hi. What a winner of a card and video, thank you so much for sharing them. That little butterfly is darling and those tiny charms are so cute, with the ribbon they just finish tha card off beautifully. I made my own sticky mat using a clear plastic grid sheet that was for my stamping platform. I'd bought a packet of them so I took one and used a large Zig two-way marker on it and let it dry to become a tacky mat. Thanks again and have a lovely day.
There’s always a way to make things work isn’t there! Well done you ❤️❤️❤️
Once again we learn so much from you! I’ve never been into mixed media but loving your ideas behind this beautiful card and would certainly have a go using your clean and simple method. Thank you and take care.
I’m going on a retreat with Indigo Blu this month so I may learn a thing or two about mixed media there!! 😊😊😊
@@Chrissieannie Have a wonderful time, hope to hear all about it!
Thanks😊😊😊
Gorgeous tag cards living the multi layering mix media will have a play thank you ❤️
Thanks so much!😊
Always a joy to watch you in the morning! Love what you demonstrated ❤️
Thank you so much!😊
Absolutely gorgeous project Dear...wowww
Thank you! Cheers!
You are as usual a wonderful teacher and you inspire me to try new techniques. Thank you Christine I love your cards today and always.
Thank you so much!😊
Really interesting. Have gilding flakes I have never used. Got tip about using cut out to position your butterfly die before cutting.
I used that little hack quite a lot to ensure I have the bit of the pattern that 😊I want!
I have got to get organized as you keep using products I know I have, but don’t know where I have them. I’m missing out on so much fun!
I must have things I've forgotten about too! 🤣🤣🤣
What lovely cards!! I am not into mixed media but I do like the way you did it and I am going to give it a try!!
Go for it! It really is fun!😁😁😁
Magnifique création, vous êtes pleine d idées et l ensemble est toujours splendide . Merci
Merci a vous ❤️
I love to use inks on white ribbon to match cards, then crunch it up to dry. 😊
Thanks 😊
So many good ideas here. Thank you Christine.
You are so welcome!💙💙💙
Look at you go with the mixed media, good to do things out of the norm sometimes. TY, looks great
Thanks😊😃😊
You are a joy to watch and learn from. Thank you for the time you take to do this.
You are very welcome💙💛💙
Love this stencil making idea
Great ❤️
Love it as always. A great process and so well coordinated with your blouse 😉
Thanks so much! 😊
Excuse a 2nd comment, much later! Just got brave & embarking on some luggage label tags which are, following your super tutorials, turning out rather well. I didn't have any tag dies so got out my nesting rectangles, cutting the top corners by running it through again using the corner of a large nesting square die as like you I'm fussy about bevelled edges. This gives a large range of finished tag sizes.
Sounds like you are doing a brilliant job!
Wonderful tutorial, love both cards and I have to try some of this. Thank you
You are so welcome!😊
Yay, more mixed media. Very thoughtful to mention thoughts on epilepsy. I have relatives w/ the condition that I often think before I do something w/ or for them. Beautiful creations always, so classy and elegant. Thanks so much for all that you do and share.
Thanks so much 😊
I can’t believe it! I learned another new trick from you. The glue on the double sided tape!😊
That’s a goodie, I use it all the time! 😊😊😊
I love this idea, I'm always wondering how to make tags look good on cards and you have shown me! I especially love the last one - the darker blue and gold are glorious and remind me of lapis lazuli. I must see what I've got that's similar! Thanks Chris, love Nicola x
It’s great fun playing around Nicola, I’m sure you’d love it! 💙💛💙
What a great process , love your layering and the addition of textures...
I like you have taken to using my Gilding Wax and Flakes over this last period.
Thanks for your inspiration Chris and for the heads up about the Gummiapan Advent Calendar for 2023. ☺️
Thanks so much!💙🧡💙
Brilliant as always. Thank you for your inspiration.
My pleasure!😊
Thank you Christine. What you have done with that tag is amazing. I didnt think i would learn so many different techniques when i started clean and simple. It is not so simple, buu so gorgeous and full of interest. Thanks for showing me how to change silver to gold. You are a wealth of good ideas.
I'm delighted that you found it helpful! 💙💛💙
Super..i like youre way of crafting
Thank you so much 🙂
Lots of great techniques. Thank you! 😊
You are so welcome!😊
Wow. What a beautiful card. I love the butterfly, it’s gorgeous. Thank you Christine, for yet another wonderful card and process. - Dawn 🌅
Glad you like it!😊
Just having a coffee and loving your cards
Thanks Sue 😊
More great tips..thanks
You are so welcome!
Saw them on FB and loved them! Still haven’t found my flakes!😊
Thanks... Good luck in your search!
I live in the states and love having my morning coffee with you. Always inspirational ❤
Good morning to you! ❤️
Love the tags and all the tidbits and ideas. I especially liked the chicken wire die and the tiny Hello die that appeared on your post title. Did the Hello die come from Gummiapan as well? Oh dear, I must visit Gummiapan again. LOL
I put the sources in the description!
Thank you so much Christine, I really really enjoyed watching you create this stunning and gorgeous card. You always inspire me too . And I’m definitely going to try this too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Thanks Mags 😊
I love when you have a play as you come up with the most unique looking looks! How fun and beautiful are all of these. Yes, you got me loving gilding wax and flakes. LOL I even found me a "scoochie' (sp) to tamp my flakes down and then burnish. I'm going to have to be careful watching you because you will have me wanting all the things! LOL Love today's video and love the smiles you bring to my face. Hugs, Brenda
Wonderful comment thank you Brenda. 💙💙💙
Love these tags, as I do all your creations. Thanks for all the inspiring videos.
Thank you so much!😊
Well Christine, I really did enjoy all the elements you used, very clever. Had cataract surgery today, so better rest now. Jenny 🇨🇦❤
I had both my eyes done a few years ago, both at the same time which was a little daunting, you take care! 😊
Of course now I’m wondering what to wear, luckily my friend is a hoarder of sunglasses, so I found a pair 😎
@@jenniferdrake1210 that's the first thing I bought for after my surgery!
Fabulous as always 😁
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you again for a great technique! I’m going to try this using espresso brown on vanilla card. Hope it turns out as stunning as yours❣️
Sounds great!🤍
The title of the video sums it up perfectly (of course) usually one wouldn't put CAS and mixed media in the same sentence. Love the look but I find it doesn't sell well. On tags it might, more to add to the try list, limiting the colour pallet is key as you've said before. I noticed the flickering (the other day) too but I can just about put up with anything to listen to your fabulous tips and entertainment a plenty. I did discover by chance that viewers can zoom in and out, that did help. Not that I've needed it much as your watch is behaving😆 have you given it a stern talking to?🤣 Exx
I'd like to know what causes the flickering when I zoom. If there has been the odd bit I have left it, but in the film I did the other day it was present for a long time which is why I scrapped it. I'm delighted that you find the odd tip or two useful. Thanks so much 😊 whether the watch behaves itself or not is totally random🤣🤣🤣
I've noticed on other CZcamsrs videos that if there is a lot of white in the main frame, there can be flickering. White cutting plates, white cutting board, sheet of white card. I'm not sure if that could be your problem (light refraction🙄), you're far more tech savvy than me.
Thank you, this is really helpful and makes total sense to me. If I hold up a card or zoom into one, that is exactly what happens... lots of white, and the flickering occurs. Thanks so much. I'll have to watch out for that. Much appreciated! ❤️❤️❤️
So pretty. Live it.
Thank you! 😊
Hi Chris, I love watching your videos as I always learn new techniques. One question... when you apply guilding flakes, are you using a sponge to tap them down, and burnish them? Thank you! ❤
The thing I use is called a Scoochy from IndigoBlu it’s a kind of firm, open textured sponge.
I noticed the flickering started at the end of the easy DIY Letterpress video when you zoomed in for a close-up
It is a real concern for me, I don't know what causes it, but the video I scrapped was bad. Sorry I'm not very techy! 😟
I completely relate. But, you are a very good teacher who makes beautiful cards. Thank you Christine!
Another beautiful card Christine. Do you know I have never made a swatch sheet for my inks! I do like yours. Did you make that yourself with the hearts or is it a print out that I can find to do also? Thank you Christine.
I made it in Word. You need to print your own on the specific card that you are going to use as the inks vary in shade according to the surfaces you are using. I need to make another as I've just received the latest colour and there's no space for it!!! 😊
@@Chrissieannie Thank you Christine....I'll give it a go! Oh gosh I will probably need 2 to 3 sheets as I believe I have every D.O!! I'm a better buyer than I am crafter🤣
I think I have all the DOs too!!! Love them!
It's a shame, I don't do facebook etc so I don't get to see the finished tag.
Nor Instagram? What a shame! 🙁
@@Chrissieannie Silly me, I have just realised I can see a lot of your finished cards etc on Pinterest. .😀😀
Maybe I should start a new board on Pinterest, I haven't pinned any of my cards for a long time, although I know that other people do.😊
I love the bunny on the first card. I couldn't quite understand the company you mentioned it was from. I'd love that for baby cards ... what company is that?
Charlie & Paulchen they are in Germany but ship worldwide!
Thank you!
I will need to order gilding wax and other products…..these are not available at Hobby Lobby….What is the best place to order?
I’m in the UK so it’s difficult for me to advise. I’d do a search to see what you can come up with!🙂
I so enjoy you work Christine I love to listen to you as you plan along with so many great ideas..you always come up with a fabulous card! May I ask a question? I fell in love with gummypan dies I have tried to find out if they ship to individuals in the USA but just can’t find any information on that thought maybe you would know..I have been on the website but no info.
Thanks Christine..❤️
They ship worldwide. If you go to the bottom of their website page there is the option to translate it into English. Just click that English tab. You just pop the items you want into your basket as usual and select your country at checkout. It's fairly straightforward, but should you have any problems their customer service is excellent and their English is impeccable.
Chrissie, what is the difference between pigment powder and mica powder? Are they used differently??
I think both powders are used similarly
What is the scoochie equivalent to in the US?
It's a bit like a dish sponge or rub it scrub it!
Christine you mentioned a sticky mat can I ask is it one you bought or made, hope you dont mind me asking
I’ve got some which I bought on Amazon and I sometimes use old carrier sheets from my Silhouette Portrait !
@@Chrissieannie Thank you
Christine sorry to be a pain can I ask the make of your tag die please
I'm sorry I have no idea, I have heaps of tag dies, I just grabbed one of the size I was looking for!🤔
@@Chrissieannie thank you
