    Hi Christine, I’ve found you again. Something weird was happening on you tube. I went to look for your videos as always, and it suddenly kept showing a six year old (apparently with the same name as you) doing her ballet steps. Very interesting but not what I was looking for. So I put in your name again and added CAS cards and that seemed to do the trick. I love your card. It’s beautiful. I love the foliage over the aperture. Very stylish. Thank you for a wonderful video. The other thing that had happened was that you tube had unsubscribed me from your channel, but I’ve fixed that by hitting the subscribe button again. I’ve got some catching up to do but I know I’ll enjoy it. BTW the Robin is very cute. It’s great to be seeing your videos again. - Dawn 🌅

    • @Chrissieannie
      @Chrissieannie  Před 5 měsíci

      I think you are referring to embossing dies. They cut into the card rather than cutting anything out!. Various companies make them but they are not as readily available as regular dies. Memory Box have some, Creative Depot, Simply Graphic, Charlie und Paulchen, Penny Black ! It’s a question of searching !😊
