Hello UK!!! 'Tis Saturday afternoon here in the US. Cleaning done! Laundry done! Craft supplies newly organized - done! Now on to crafting my little heart and fingers out! Oh dang Christine - per your announcement not to get old - well I've done that too! So happy to view your videos - they are real - funny (yup taught little ones too - at Tennessee School for the Deaf - which brought me to the grand career of being a Sign Language Interpreter) - whoops a bit of a bunny trail chat - but....to all who read this ....happy day, happy smiles, happy crafting, bring light and beauty into the world each day - for by golly the world truly needs both!
What an amazing technique, never seen that before!! I won't throw my doggy calendar away next time. If only all teachers were as kind and caring as you obviously were, the world would be a much better place ❤❤❤
I can imagine all 33 yrs of students remembering how kind and fascinating a teacher you were to them. I already learn a ton from your videos. Thank you for taking the time to create these excellent tutorials. What has been seen, cannot be unseen - the doggie's eye in the leaf 😁😂🤣
My son has a proprioceptive disorder (sensory processing). At 10, he still struggles with scissors. You have know idea how much your teaching-story just helped us. ❤️ Thank you.
That's wonderful to hear, thank you. Sadly I think many kids are not actually taught how to use scissors properly and are left to just get on with it without being shown how to hold scissors properly either. It warmed my heart to read your comment. I wish your son much success! ♥️♥️♥️
Ha ha, I love your little asides e.g. “don’t get old” almost as much as I love your creations. I feel sure we would get on if we ever met (although I am on the opposite side of the world in Australia). Please don’t ever change 👍
😂Oh, how I Iove your story regarding teaching the 'little ones' how to use scissors. It wasn't until I was in my 60s and attended scrapbooking classes, I realised I too had missed out on being taught how to use scissors! A bit embarrassing but obviously, never too old to learn. 😊 'Fussy cutting', as we called it, is now one of my favourite methods of embellishing. Thankyou for your wonderful videos.
Your previous job explains why you are so good at explaining things. You're a great problem solver too. Thank you for sharing your discoveries with us.
Cloisonne is always beautiful and your butterfly and leaves are no exception. You keep filling my head with so much beauty and each process is worth writing down. I become so involved in watching I forget to write 😃. Sometimes I need to come back to see it again. Then I can take notes. Thank you for this video, particularly those gorgeous leaves. 🇨🇦💖
Hi there 🥰🦘🦘🦘I also have shiny calendar images which I can create faux cloisonne with! What a fabulous idea. I have been crafting for over 50 years and haven't learnt all the tricks & tweaks yet by any means. Wow! I just love this look. Beautiful & very effective on the black too. I agree, to adhere the backing piece of cardstock to the thin shiny paper if wanting to mount the fussy cut image on foam tape. TFS! Keep on being YOU, & I don't feel my age except when the weather changes! Glad I found you, through my friend Pat from Wiltshire 🙏🥰💐
Oh my goodness! That is SOOOO cool! I have a gorgeous calendar of photos that would be amazing with this technique! And, always, than you for making us smile as you go!
I'm a recent fan because I've only discovered you a week or so ago but I have to tell you that you have become a favorite! Love the simple, clear instructions you give that make me feel that maybe I can do that project (and I can't wait to try this one). I have discovered the difficulties of becoming old but then I remind myself that the alternative is dying young and it makes the creaks and aches and memory loss less painful!! Keep on inspiring us, dear lady. You have become a "friend" to lighten my days.
Thank you so much for this wonderful comment, I can identify with the creaking but we need to have some fun and for me that’s crafting. When I get back from my holiday I’ll be making more videos! ❤️
@@Chrissieannie So where are you holidaying? Crafting is also my outlet and I just love it. You inspire me with many new tips and tricks and I love that as well. Have a wonderful holiday and look forward to your new videos when you return.
As always you are so helpful and do such impressive work. Love, love your stories about your working with our precious children. They are so open to learning and doing things and I know they must have loved you!
Oh Chris how wonderful you have brightened up the start to my day watching this. Love the technique. Don't grow old it's a hard life 😂🤣well as I approach my 70th birthday I will remember that 🤣🤣😍😍
I love this and have always loved Cloisonné my Grandmother had a lot of it, she was British too she had us over every year to make Christmas Cards. Your have so much talent and wonderful ideas that are so amazing, beautiful and fun. I can't wait to try this. Thank you so much
WOW 🤩 WOW 🤩 Christine this is Absolutely Amazing And I really really love ❤ this. So Stunningly Beautifully Gorgeous too. thank you so much . As always thank you so much for sharing this amazing technique with us all . Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
At first when you stamped the maple leaf on black then embossed it I thought it was so beautiful why stamp on printed papers. Then you said it again faux cloisonné. Always learning here. It’s really beautiful and I can’t wait to try it! Thank you.
Well you certainly were in the right profession, Chrissie. You are a natural-born teacher!! LOVE your video. And love that you are just being yourself as you talk us through the technique. So enjoyable!! Love, Loll
I love hearing your stories and comments!! Makes me feel like I am at your craft table in your home.❤thanks for sharing your idea about the cloisonné technique!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could all be at the same craft table… I guess it would have to be a mighty big one! For now I’m happy to just share mine with you! I hope you enjoy lots of my videos and give them a thumbs up! 😊
What beautiful cards and a wonderful, unexpected technique! By the way, my older brother used to count every time I’d say, “you know.” 1, 2, 3… and so on. After a bit I could barely talk.
You have so many beautiful stamps. The brands you use aren’t as readily available here in the US. I have a bit of stamp envy! Both the butterfly and leaves are gorgeous. That aside, I absolutely love this technique. The results are stunning. By the way, I love your teacher talk. I taught the little ones for 47 years. You bring back some very sweet memories. Thank you for another wonderful video.
Wow, Christine, I've never heard of this technique before and find it very beautiful! And yes, I totally agree....aging can be difficult but on the positive side, I've finally learned patience... teehee! Thanks for sharing, dear...gentle hugs from Canada
I have not thought of doing this nor seen it before. 🤔 I wonder; does the magazine paper not warp or curl upon heating? ? I didn't see you have that trouble but it seems like it could almost shrivel. 😏
What a great video! Not only did I learn a new/easy and dynamic technique, BUT NOW I know how to use scissors...LOL! Enjoyed all your little comments too..."don't get old...it's a hard life", etc.! Totally amusing and fun! Your cards are stunning as well...thank you 🙂
Lovely ideas. AND you solved a problem I had yesterday, I was cutting card and was getting "snap" scissor marks. At 71 I've been taught how to use scissors correctly. Never too old to learn! Thank you.
Just discovered your CZcams channel, fantastic. I'm working my way from oldest to the newest videos but had to comment on your scissor cutting lesson. I have heard before move the paper not the scissors but your description while demonstrating was perfect, along with the anecdotal tale. Thank you. Ex
Don't get old!? Too late for me. You are so funny. You make me laugh and you can never have too much of that these days. Enjoy your videos and your art. Blessings!
wow, not heard of that before but I'll be having a go. loved the little commentary on the children and crocodile 🐊 mouths. For very clever, l bet you were a great teacher. x
This was a wonderful video! Never be hard on yourself for chatting on while illustrating your techniques. I found this video very informative. I learned 3 brand new things. Firstly, I had never known of the cloisonné technique. It’s lovely and I’ll be trying it soon. Secondly, I would absolutely have bungled the pronunciation of the word cloisonné, and so you saying it a few times will help me not to appear the fool in front of my crafty friends. Thirdly (and perhaps most importantly, you’ve passed on wonderful tips for teaching my grandkids (and future crafters) techniques for using scissors. You must have been the very best of teachers. You’ve certainly given me delightful inspiration today! Many thanks
WOW that is just so gorgeous. Another technique to try. I have only just discovered your channel so will certainly be watch more of your super ideas. Thanks ever so much.
Hi Christine. I recently came across you, here on the great “Tube of U” and I must say; yours is the only site I can honestly say is full of interesting stuff. Also I love the way you manage to show us how to have a reet good time and produce a card that is lovely and sophisticated. Thank you for the time you put in. Peter
Thank you for doing this video...I've been following your blog for many years and often wish you'd do one to show how you do your beautiful cards. Will now try stamping on a mag. picture since you showed how different they look once the picture is cut out.
It is surprising sometimes you think a mag picture will be dreadful and you can be quite pleasantly surprised. I do appreciate your kind words! Thank you
Love your Tutorials you explain so clearly and even show how as well ,also you help with cost by giving us try outs that you do and feel is are going to help us save some pennies. Thank you keep up the excellent work.Ann
This is such a lovely technique! I am so excited to give this a try and I now know what to do with the many calendars we receive in the mail! Thanks so much for sharing your talent!
Wouldn't it work with gilding flakes as the background? I don't buy any glossy magazines these days, only cross word magazines and they're far from glossy. I also thought that you wouldn't have to heat emboss the stamp on the background paper and that a simple ink would work for placement unless you need some small golden (or metallic) details you can't cut out? Hopefully you understand my ramblings. 😇 Lovely result and technique! I will definitely try it! 💖👍
If you do the stamping and embossing underneath the cut out images, any imperfections made with your scissors would be compensated by the lower stamping/embossing! Dies always leave a border around their matching images.
Martha, no reason that you couldn't do that. Chrissie has stamped, embossed and cut out, whether you use scissors or a die you would get the same effect.
I think the only difference with hand cutting and die cutting is that die cutting usually leaves a border around the edges of the image, whereas when cutting by hand you can cut right up to the edge of the image. It gives a different effect. Do try it and see how you feel about the look, who knows, you may prefer it. After all, art is a personal thing!

Fabulous technique Christine, thanks for sharing ~ Stef x
Stunning card and fantastic technique, which is a new one on me - thank you so much xx
Seriously beautiful and so creative ! Loved this and so inspiring Thankyou !
Amazing 😊🙋♀️
Wouldn't it work with gilding flakes as the background? I don't buy any glossy magazines these days, only cross word magazines and they're far from glossy. I also thought that you wouldn't have to heat emboss the stamp on the background paper and that a simple ink would work for placement unless you need some small golden (or metallic) details you can't cut out? Hopefully you understand my ramblings. 😇 Lovely result and technique! I will definitely try it! 💖👍
Well I hope you’ll try out all your a suggestions! Whatever works for you is grand!
Love this technique. Thanks for sharing. I have the Indigo Blue butterfly which is beautiful when embossed.
What an interesting technique.Would also work well with stamp and die sets..I am not a good fussy cutter 🤦♀️ thanks must try this out !
If you do the stamping and embossing underneath the cut out images, any imperfections made with your scissors would be compensated by the lower stamping/embossing! Dies always leave a border around their matching images.
@@Chrissieannie didn’t think of that …😂oh well back to the scissors 👍
Thank you for sharing! Love your creations 😍
This is a beautiful idea... thanks for sharing!!😊
Great video!! Thanks.
Definitely going to use this technique. Can I use photo paper, ie old photos as they are shiny?
There's one way to find out! 😀😀😀
Brilliant, thanks so much 💜
Good morning Christine…this tutorial is so nice.but may I ask where those maple leave stamp and die came from? Thanks you and Take care
I believe they are Rubbernecker stamps, but they are very old and may no longer be available!
Thanks a lot
I checked on Rubbernecker online shop and it’s available…merry Christmas and happy new year 2024 to you and your family
🎉🎄🎇
🤩🤩🤩
❤️❤️❤️
Wrapping paperis shiny
Exactly
How did you do the butterfly with his feelers? They are so tiny!!
I described how I did that in the video!
How beautiful! Could this technique be done with a stamp and die cut?
Martha, no reason that you couldn't do that. Chrissie has stamped, embossed and cut out, whether you use scissors or a die you would get the same effect.
I think the only difference with hand cutting and die cutting is that die cutting usually leaves a border around the edges of the image, whereas when cutting by hand you can cut right up to the edge of the image. It gives a different effect. Do try it and see how you feel about the look, who knows, you may prefer it. After all, art is a personal thing!
