I really liked the hi with partial embossing also. The partial embossing is a game changer for me thanks. Such a great idea so simple but such a great look
I love all of them are creative. But I think my fav is the black one that you only out a few of the hole. I've never thought of that before. You're so fun!
Aw wow these cards are amazing. The first card is particularity pure genius. Every video you produce gives me so many great ideas and gets me creating.
Love all your ideas. (The first one was a little to busy and made it difficult to read clearly.) I think my favorite was the black background base with the off-set white shadowing. Love to do this layering with dies to give them a pop effect. Will indeed be watching for more videos from you, Laurel!
I love these cards! I like ink dragging, I use it on embossed layers. My experience with shaker cards is liquid glue will not be permanent on acetate, it comes apart. I recommend using double sided adhesive.
I really enjoyed watching the different ways that you used the word dies and I'm looking forward to trying some of them out!! It would be nice to already have some card fronts and/or word dies already cut out and ready to use. I think your favorite was my favorite also! That is a great idea to not poke out all of the small pieces and get a totally different look! You know, instead of cutting & stacking your word die 5 or 6 times, I use fun foam and remove the sticky part and put some sticker paper on it. Then, I cut the fun foam and the word die in the desired colors. That way if you can see any of the edges, the colors are the same. ( If you do not have the matching foam, use whatever color you have and then take a marker and color the edges of the foam in case they can be seen.) Then, adhere the colored cardstock to the foam and you have your diecut word in a Thicker foam. I use this method alot with my alphabet dies when making my titles and essentially making my own Thickers and love it!! I hope that this all makes sense!
My favorite card was the black thank you. My favorite comment was about not being a confident sequin placer. That's me! Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone.
Your last and the shaker card were my favorites. One of the things that I really like about your cards is that you don’t use sequins! I think they look like awkward additions most of the time. So kudos to you!
Laurel these cards are great. My favorite I believe is the two tone thank you die cut. Thank you for the 40% off code for the Kinder Beauty Box. Will be ordering
The clay colored Thank you card and the one you stamped a pattern on were my favorites. I have very few word dies because I'm really picky about fonts and also the messages. You had some nice techniques with them though!
So with the embossing powder on the word die- I did the same technique on the numbers 7 and 5 for my dad's 75th birthday party. I found that if you dip the word or number into the powder really fast, while it is still hot, you can get another layer of powder without using embossing ink again. I did about 5-7 layers, and the edges got really cool looking and curved over.
I liked them all.. :) I tried embossing for the first !! Screwed up right off the bat. I inked the stamp, then I poured powder on it.. dah!! Have to Stamp it on paper FIRST.. Had to LAUGH cause I wanted to cry.. second time, did it right. I inked up a couple of numbers I waned to emboss. One number came out ok, not cover completely as i thought it would, but I see your word kinda came out the same way. So I don't feel that bad. But the other number ,didnt stick at all.it just blew powder away. Going to try again later. Thanks for sharing.
@@LaurelBeard thanks for the tip. I dont think the pad was juicy and I just opened it. Do they have re-inkers for embossing ink pads? New to this. I will keep trying. Thanks for replying to me. Have a great day.
Amazing! I am so encouraged by your mistakes and make it, use it, attitude. You have no idea how many so called flops I’ve made then went into brain freeze! Oodles. I have the same bins fir all kinds of things snd try to use them but it TAKES ME FOREVER to figure out what I can do. So hard on myself for these over the top 10,000 card ideas! Whew I’m so glad I found your channel. Oh and I like all the ideas. Maybe a bit partial to the first one. But that’s prob because it’s dramatic black !!!
Why is that sometimes the obvious....isn't? LOL! LOVE my big word dies and why I never thought to stamp on them is beyond me! Such a wonderful idea... The shaker idea is great as well, even though I don't do shakers often. Thanks!!
I LOVE those sequins!
Fabulous cards! My favourite is your favourite! xxx
Super cool ideas!! Thanks for this.
Especially like the stamped on thinking of you die with the plank background. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Thanks for some great ideas!!
You are so funny and bubbly personality love your work xx

I went to buy the mandala stamp set but it’s out of stock ☹️

I loved the hello card. Soooo cool
I love your commentary. Thanks for the great ideas
Sadly no. Watercolor isn't popular here on the channel for whatever reason! But you can some of my work here: laurelbeard.org
The last card was my favorite and this was a great reminder to get more creative with what I have. Thanks
My favorite card was the black thank you. My favorite comment was about not being a confident sequin placer. That's me! Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone.
Excellent ideas! Thanks!!
If had to pick one it would be the 'hi' one with partial embossed background. It gave it an interesting look. Thanks for sharing.
Qw1
Same here!
Your last and the shaker card were my favorites.
One of the things that I really like about your cards is that you don’t use sequins! I think they look like awkward additions most of the time. So kudos to you!

Make sure your embossing pad is nice and juicy! Kudos for keeping trying. You can do it!!!
@@LaurelBeard thanks for the tip. I dont think the pad was juicy and I just opened it. Do they have re-inkers for embossing ink pads? New to this. I will keep trying. Thanks for replying to me. Have a great day.
L ove,love your ombre and shaker !

Amazing cards 🥰 I love your card designs, your techniques and your tutorial ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Great tips! Thank you….where did you get the shelves on your pegboard?
My husband made them!
@@LaurelBeard nice, my husband works with wood, so can I ask how it’s attached to the pegboard.
@@ingrid2543 l brackets he said. I didn't want them showing so he had to sand down an edge in the back to get them in
@@LaurelBeard “L” brackets, good idea, thank you!
