@SimpleCreationsByShanda thank you!

@flannelwhiskers You are welcome 💗

@LauraSup Thanks! I think so too 😊

@lynnconroy8 I did the iron on method in this video where I made Christmas ornaments ruclips.net/video/_PmIIiRUuLs/видео.htmlsi=8ucE6mb506yHc4Sj I may do videos decoupaging other things, soon 😊

Thank you 😊

@debramorgan7069 It definitely costs more than the Scotch brand one I got from Walmart. However, it does laminate better. They are offering a 20% coupon on Amazon right now, but it would still be almost $50 💁‍♀️

@vickislominski7618 It's good to know that other laminators do the same thing, maybe they all do. I did like that it laminated closer to the paper better than my Scotch brand one. I'm thinking that this one gets hotter, so that helps with preventing that gap around the paper but it also causes more bowing. It's give and take I guess 💁‍♀️You are so welcome, thanks for watching 💗

@flannelwhiskers I definitely have more content around the holidays because that's when I'm creating the most, but I am hoping to continue posting as I have content to share. I've had some tutorial requests on things I haven't shared yet, so I'll work on getting those out. Honestly, the heat lamination on this machine gets very hot so I'm thinking the cold lamination would be more gentle for leaves. Do you currently use heat when you laminate your leaves? Thank you for always watching, you're a sweet crafty friend 😊💗

@SimpleCreationsByShanda glad to hear you'll be posting more content! I use the Scotch brand heat laminator and it discolors the leaves slightly. But it also doesn't seal all the way close to the leaf veins on bigger leaves. Thanks for the great video!🙂

@flannelwhiskers I have that same problem with the Scotch Laminator and how it doesn't seal close to the item! This new Laminator sealed so much better, but it also warps more. I'm not sure which is better Lol 💁‍♀️

@lynnconroy8 Yes, yes and yes! Literally everything you said are my thoughts exactly. I kinda feel bad that I wasn't able to give a better review, but it is what it is, hopefully they won't be too mad when they watch it Lol. I'll definitely try it out a few more times because like you said, the design and the feed is better. I like your tip about feeding it through again upside down, I'm going to try that on my old one. Thanks 😊

Yes, it was fun!

@EphemeralKeyStudio I have a had a few requests for this. I will do my best 😊

@EphemeralKeyStudio Thanks for sharing how you did with these, I didn't do well either. I'm keeping mine for next year but I love that you found a meaningful way to gift them 😊

@@SimpleCreationsByShanda I thought they were super cute, and I’m sure I would have sold more if more families had been there. It seemed like it was mostly older folk at that market, the pack I sold was to a little boy with his grandma. I might try it again if I book a school fair next year (our Christmas season coincides with summer break, so a lot of schools have fundraiser fairs at the end of the year)

@EphemeralKeyStudio I think you may do well selling your Journals online... maybe Etsy or get yourself an e-commerce store. I'm not sure if you will ever get what they are worth at craft fairs because they are simply beautiful. Of course, you can take them to your fairs, but between fairs you can post them for sale and use your RUclips platform as a way to offer them for sale. Just a suggestion 💗

@judypierce7028 What a wonderful way to share this craft idea! I'm so glad you are enjoying my channel. Thank you for sharing this with me ☺️ ♡ Shanda

Lol I just knew someone would ask about this. I actually forgot to mention it in the Recap. I only took them to my first fair, which was the Fall Festival. I did not sell any, but thar was not the right crowd for that item. However, I am planning to take them to my Spring fair in April, which will be a better audience. I also forgot to mention I sold both of my Christmas Planners and I didn't sell any of my Christmas greeting cards. @flannelwhiskers

@@SimpleCreationsByShanda glad you sold your planners! I'll be curious to hear how you do with your blank notecards. RE: your Christmas cards, I like how you put a panel on the inside of your cards!

Last year I sold them for $12... this year I charged $15.

@mariposa4902 Thank you! Do you have a specific ornament you would like to see a tutorial on? I do have a tutorial on the square decoupage ornaments here ruclips.net/video/_PmIIiRUuLs/видео.htmlsi=ASMTd6TmwwKQFG9u and also the stamped wood slice Ornaments here ruclips.net/video/D3p9CSIn1E4/видео.htmlsi=gsM16o_roy5YAKSZ

Thanks!! Me too 😃 I've missed your blog lately, I hope you are doing okay

@SimpleCreationsByShanda Thank you for your concern. I plan on talking about some of what has been going on in the blog, hopefully tomorrow. I am well just bombarded with the cares of life. For a positive note, we did celebrate my husband's birthday yesterday. I do have work to do now, so hopefully I'll get to share more tomorrow. I received the items from you. They are beautiful. God bless.

Thank you so much Catherine, you're too sweet! I am pretty happy with how it went and I had a great time. I really appreciate you watching ☺️💗

Thank you 😊💗

Thank you so much 😊💗

Hi Lisa... I have had other crafters say their tea favors did not do well, which is strange, they sold so well last year. I have had suggestions to put a pen with my Journals but I hesitate, because I would have to raise the price, and I'm just not sure people would want to pay more. Then you have the case where someone wants a Journal but not a pen, or vice versa, then doesn't buy anything because it isn't sold separately. I rarely have shoppers buy both a pen and a journal at the same time. Maybe I should test the waters and only make a few sets but also sell them separately. I may do that for my Spring fair in April. I hope your last show does well! Always nice to hear from you 😊

Thank you Julie 😊

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching 😊

I do too! Thanks for watching 😊
