    I’m easing my way into the paper crafting world and found myself overwhelmed with all the stamps, ink, brushes that comes along with this hobby. After watching this video I realized I have everything. Thank you for the help!

    This is such a good demonstration. Thank you! The mounting tape makes a huge difference. I’m happy to see how accessible these items are too. I want to make beautiful cards, but I’m not ready to spend hundreds on supplies. This is just right and very exciting to me. Thank you so much for the information.

    Thank you very much for this video. You are an excellent teacher, especially for beginners like myself. Your attention to detail is very good, especially for beginners. I also like how you explain co-ordinating papers and putting light, dark and textured papers together. Your voice is lovely to listen to and you pace everything very well, which makes it easy to understand. The only thought I have, is, buying materials from USA/CANADA (I live in the UK) carries hefty postage, which sometimes outweighs the cost of the materials, so I am unable to buy them. Thank you again. Jo x

  • @2CraftySeniors
    @2CraftySeniors 2 года назад +2

    Thank you so very much. I'm a beginner in cardmaking and also have a few 'challenges', like shaky hands, to contend with. I really appreciate seeing the cheaper tools and supplies because I have a very limited budget when it comes to crafting. I was pleasantly surprised to see the foam tape from Dollar Tree. I was planning on buying a very large roll of foam tape that wasn't pre-cut, but this looks easier for me to handle and it actually works out cheaper than the large roll.

    When I started everyone said get punches. Then it was dies
    Then it was infinity dies. Then stamps dies and expensive markers and pencils. I've learned the hard way that a score board, infinity dies round, square and rectangles. I love embossing folders because they are cheap and versatile. Stamps are great but be very picky. Anyway I appreciate that you are teaching that following every trend is super expensive and I have boxes of things I never use.

And I already have the majority of the supplies u used. I can't wait to start. TYFS and for the inspiration (I am subscribing to your channel). Happy holidays! 😊😊😊

    I love that you did this with simple, readily available supplies, and I love that you used the paper pad I just purchased! 🥰
    I do have a question though, when the card front is layered and built up it seems to make the card back piece thin/flimsy by comparison. Can we add a layer inside or would that not look right? Thanks so much, subscribing! 🥰

    • @strawberrycream39Jen
      @strawberrycream39Jen  2 года назад +1

      Hi Trish! Yes you can absolutely add more to the inside. Just keep in mind that you may need another stamp if it’s over an ounce. I’m not great at decorating the inside of cards but I love when other people do it! TFW xo Jen
