    Yes, 12 cards. 8 pieces of paper, each cut into 3. 3 x 8 = 24. Then,24 ÷ 2 = 12. The designs and colours are very effective.

    These are creative and simple. I agree they do look more finished with the narrower straps. Good job

  • @wendywilson1736
    @wendywilson1736 2 года назад +36

    I like seeing a narrow strip between the patterns, myself. Or, the sentiment strip is fine, too. I just think they need to be divided.💁‍♀️

      I agree with foiled strips look is awesome. Levels the cards up. Excellent idea on using up extra cardstock behind the sentiments.

  • @veperez6250
    @veperez6250 11 месяцев назад +1

    I’d probably go with foil on wintery images & a colored satin or grosgrain ribbon on Christmas images.

    I stumbled on your channel by accident, and am so glad I did! I like making cards occasionally but not often enough to buy all that equipment, so I just recycle old greeting cards and gift wrapping paper, cut them into shapes and glue on to cardstock. I reckon I can do that following your tutorials, as you make it so easy🙂

  • @hilarygreek7830
    @hilarygreek7830 Год назад +1

    I know this an “old” video, but I would totally use the holographic paper. And I would use the white for sentiments. I might use the silver extras on the inside of the cards.

    You have hit on a wonderful idea! I have been watching "make ahead" videos the past few days, as I am a procrastinator when it comes to getting a card going. Having them done at least this far, and keeping them handy will help immensely! I do prefer a strip of some kind in between two papers on a card, I personally think it gives a more "finished" look.

    Lovely simple designs thank you.
    Living in Australia, & being new to cardmaking, trying to convert American cardstock measurements into A4 centimetre ones does my head in.
    So it would be super helpful if you add more generic measurements ie
    Score cardstock in half on short side & cut in half on long side to create 2 card bases.
    Cut a matting layer smaller than card base to create equal border from card to matt.
    Cut pattern paper same width & 1/2 length as matt layer ... etc etc
    I'm not suggesting you omit measurements as I'm sure they're super useful for the majority of your viewers, I'm just suggesting you include generic references as well.
    Having said that I enjoyed watching your bulk card making process thank you 🐨🐾

    Such pretty cards, so simple but elegant too. You are an excellent teacher Jenny, your instruction style is so clear and easy to follow. (take it from a retired teacher...you do a great job!) I am so happy that I discovered your channel; it has motivated me to get back to my own card making. The other thing I really enjoy in your videos is that you do not do a lot of useless chatter (like some other presenters do)....you get right down to business. I like that.

    Finally a video that isn't a voice over and no fast forwarding (I prefer tutorials that explain as they go through the process lol) I just watched a video that showed how to make 10 card designs in 10 minutes. It took 10 minutes because the entire video was fast forwarded. Anyway I'm considering making my own cards and u have definitely inspired me. TYFS and keep up the good work! ❤❤❤ BTW those are beautiful cards!

    • @JennyCardDesigns
      @JennyCardDesigns  Год назад

      I'm using fine tip bottle with modpodge with a little bit of water. I find this is the absolute best glue for crafting as it holds everything together and I'm confident it won't fall apart. Additionally, by adding just a touch of water into my little fine tip bottle, it will thin out just a little bit so that spreads nice and easy on my cards

    • @JennyCardDesigns
      @JennyCardDesigns  2 года назад +1

      The tape runner I use is the kokuyo. It's a DOT runner, available on Amazon. It is a little pricey but for every roll it's equivalent to about five regular tape runners from any regular standard brand. Very good tape and well worth the money

    Why did you choose an unusual size of 7x10 per card? It requires one whole sheet for a card, in addition to the envelope size challenge.
    Love the hint for the foil strips. Love the strips rather than leaving the seam.

    • @JennyCardDesigns
