Editing fail in the first 7 seconds? Couldn't be me! The initial clip is supposed to say "There are very few things that I enjoy more than a day at the beach, but one of those things is an excuse to wear a bucket hat." 🤦🏻♂
lol I thought you did that on purpose cause you put on the hat instead of saying it! Goes to show that if you had not mentioned it I would have thought that was purposeful and a way to add humor. Not all “fails” are fails. Similar to card making “accidents” it’s what you turn it into. Next time don’t mention it and no one will know it was a “fail” 😊
I only just discovered your channel and I'm really impressed. Not only about your skills and techniques but also about how well you explain the process. And also you have really nice hands.
I really like cards like this. I've made the white foam by mixing baking soda into the paste also. Love the idea of using bits from different sets and finding different ways to use our stamps.
Ps. My current snack addiction is Noosa peach yogurt and Ritz baked crackers, veggie flavor! I never liked yogurt, but omg, gotta have at LEAST once a day!❤
Thanks for the great tips! Also fyi -- you can use Undo if you need to pull your paper back up from any dry adhesive - foam tape, tape runner, red tape etc. it will seem like you’re ruining your colored or inked image since it gets wet but it doesn’t! It temporarily releases the paper but then the adhesive quickly goes back to sticky again. Magic 😊
Cool card, well done, love the seafoam... and the seagulls as well ❤❤❤... with a different beak they could go as pigeons as well... ad a zylinder and a veil und you have wedding pigeons 😂😂😂.... if you ever had a great black-backed gull on your arm, you never confuse them with pigeons anymore 😂... they weigh 8 times more and have a wingspan up to 1.7 Meters...
Oh Ralph!!! This is absolutely the cutest!!! Love it …I thought at first your seagull’s were Ghosts until i saw the beeks. Cool waves …gotta try this. 💙💙💙
Hi Ralph, Your card is so darn CUTE. Thank you Ralph for doing this video. You did a magnificent job. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE watching your videos. You are so funny without trying.
Ahhh LOVE a mixed media design!! And here I thought you were being a mime for the hat portion!! ;) lol I do love your humor kiddo!!! Let's see... snacks... pb m&ms if I'm being bad.. which is not often... usually granola and sugar free lattes! Now I have to say when you first showed the seagull dies I thought they were ghosts! hahaha And I thought we were making an interesting beachy Halloween card!! I mean, you never know, right?? This is a super cute card design... and if we must die in this summer heat at least we can make cute cards!! Thanks for the fun video!
I LOVE m&ms! I prefer the classic over any other kind but I do always like to try out the funky limited edition seasonal flavors when those hit stores.
Lol, I thought the seagull heads were ghost at first too! Thank you for sharing the water technique! I do no have Hero paste & all the links sights are out of stock, (shows how popular your video is) so once I can purchase the Hero paste, I am definitely trying your technique! Thank you again!
That is really an awesome card! I love it! I was a little confused by the dies at first. I thought they were ghosts and a spider web! Lol! Apparently I wasn't the only one! 😆
When you showed us the umbrella and seagull dies my first thought was why are you using a spiderweb and ghost dies on a beach scene! LOL Love your little pop-up "explanations" - keeps it fun! Great job on the card - so adorable!
Humourous card. I would have put the large “Mine” with the small gull, and vice versa. Just for humour. Thanks for the great lesson, especially the seafoam.
Love it! Always gasp when you perform card surgery- but it IS such a bonus. Thanks for the inspo Ralph! Appreciate your long form content - you always brings a little bit of cheer to my day. Happy day!
love your card! The birds are too cute! My favorite snack is either popcorn or Welch's fruit snacks, just depends if I want something salty or sweet! ~Kim in Austin
Great idea for making the foam! I can't have dirt or sand without using grit paste. I love it for that and really enjoy when my recipient finds out they can feel the sand/dirt. Enjoyed watching this. It's a fab card.
I love the "waves"! What a creative idea. Color me stupid but I don't get the pigeons. I agree with your TikTok followers as I too think they look like ghosts. Why don't they have legs? Good grief; I'm CLEARLY showing my age (bla!). It's a good thing you showed the movie clip or I wouldn't have understood the "mine" message (short movie clip was really funny btw!)! You had some good ideas! I think the added "dots" for the sand were spot on. And here's a scary thought: I'm going to attempt your "waves" (oh dear!)!!
Great video Ralph! Entertaining and such fabulous tips and how to.....Love this card! So cute. Your waves look stunning! I definitely want to try this technique! I love everything you did on this card! Thank you so much for sharing and creating such fun videos! You are incredibly talented 💜☺️

This was a great card. Thank you
I love the idea of using the Score Buddy to align your card fronts correctly. And your 3D card is awesome. 🌊
What a wonderful card and tutorial. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks for watching!
Excellent card. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Super cute card! Thanks for sharing!

Great job, Ralph! I loved your sea foam and beach, perfect! Now I'm going to HAVE to try this! Lol Wish me luck! Thanks for the inspo! 😊👍
Ps. My current snack addiction is Noosa peach yogurt and Ritz baked crackers, veggie flavor! I never liked yogurt, but omg, gotta have at LEAST once a day!❤
Oh my goodness those Ritz baked crackers are sooooo good. We are fans of the sour cream and onion ones in this house.

I'll have to look into this!
Agree! It’s saved my butt more than once!

Oh my goodness! I can't say I've ever had a gull on my arm hahaha.
Great tutorial, thanks so much.
Oh Ralph!!! This is absolutely the cutest!!! Love it …I thought at first your seagull’s were Ghosts until i saw the beeks. Cool waves …gotta try this. 💙💙💙
The seagulls ARE misleading!
Great card.
Love this card! So cute! I also like the way you teach- very informative. 😊❤
Thank you!
Great card!! My favorite craft snacks are m&m's or skittles!❤
Oooo I LOVE m&ms!
So cool! Thanks for teaching us how to create this effect. 💜
You're very welcome!
Love it! I’m really glad you did this one as when you did it on TikTok live I missed the whole first half!
Glad you were able to catch up here! 😉
Fun card! Love the dimension you got from it, really nice!
Thank you!
Great card! Love the foam!!
Adorable as always Ralph!!
Thanks Megan!
Amazingly cute and creative!!! You make it come together so easily. 👍
Such a cool technique! Can't wait to try this on a card.
I like the beach ⛱️ scene and the paste to make the foam was ingenious!
Like the recycled yogurt cup, I use 2 oz Jell-O shots cups in my craft room.
Thats a great option too!
Mine! Yes to more videos like this!! I enjoyed watching this. I love pb filled pretzels, too.
Snack twins!
NGL, I thought the seagulls were ghosts at first, too. It also made me think the umbrella dies were part of a web stamp/die. 😂
They're definitely misleading! lol
Great twofer die set. Remove the beak and you’ll have a ghost. But can you turn your ghost dies into seagulls?
Love this card. It's a hoot
Hi Ralph,
Your card is so darn CUTE. Thank you Ralph for doing this video. You did a magnificent job. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE watching your videos. You are so funny without trying.

I enjoyed your video and since you asked...my favorite craft snack is Hershey's kisses.
Great choice!
Very cute and I loved how you did your beach and sea scene.
100% helpful! I LOVE this. (And side note: I was making beach themed resin coasters while watching 😀)
We're all longing for the beach huh?
Love it!
That was a FANTASTIC tutorial with the most delightful result!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Let me know how you like it! I'm sure you could use other texture pastes as well...I'm just not as well versed with others lol.
I love the texture paste technique!
Sea pigeons 😂😂😂 I grew up in Chicago sea pigeons capital… I will forever remember that
Hahaha
Love this!❤
AMAZING
Great job. I'm going to give the paste a try.
Really appreciate the metric info for the card. This card is so cute!

That is really an awesome card! I love it! I was a little confused by the dies at first. I thought they were ghosts and a spider web! Lol! Apparently I wasn't the only one! 😆
They do appear that way! Glad you enjoyed the video!
When you showed us the umbrella and seagull dies my first thought was why are you using a spiderweb and ghost dies on a beach scene! LOL Love your little pop-up "explanations" - keeps it fun! Great job on the card - so adorable!

Yep!

Haha! Totally fair.
That’s the best looking beach card!! You made it look so realistic!!
You really are amazing, Ralph!!
🌊🏖️
Thank you Peggy!
I absolutely enjoy your tutorials ❤
Thanks for a great video! Loved all your tips
Aside from a darling card, I love that you remind how much the Cricut joy can do when you are in a jam. ❤
Oh yes! That little machine is so handy to have by your side!
Thank you so much Ralph! What a great card. Perfect instructions!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great idea! *Ü*
Humourous card. I would have put the large “Mine” with the small gull, and vice versa. Just for humour. Thanks for the great lesson, especially the seafoam.
Glad you enjoyed it!
cute card, love your humor!
Thank you!
I really enjoy watching your videos, they are always fun and they’re informative as well. Great card. 💙

Another amazing card, anyone else want strawberries and cream sweets when watching the umbrella blending. Yum
Love it ❤ thank you so much for sharing. Great card and wonderful personality love the humor. Will be watching for next video
Thanks so much!
11:33 all I can see is Umbrella Corporation 😂
Great video 🥰
Hahah totally valid
Super Duper Cute! I could almost hear the seagulls speaking to me! LOL ;)
Love it! Always gasp when you perform card surgery- but it IS such a bonus. Thanks for the inspo Ralph! Appreciate your long form content - you always brings a little bit of cheer to my day. Happy day!
Hahaha card surgery is tricky business!
love your card! The birds are too cute! My favorite snack is either popcorn or Welch's fruit snacks, just depends if I want something salty or sweet! ~Kim in Austin
Both great snack options!
