I am lucky enough to be on holidays and watching you poolside. I laughed out loud whilst watching your video today, at both you added text commentary and then your mishaps, because I can so relate! 🤣🤣. I am sure everyone would have been surprised to know it was a card making video I was watching. Thanks for the laugh and the sharing your lovely card, loved the colour combo.
I couldn’t make a ‘fast’ card if my life depended on it !! Mainly because I change my mind, then I can’t find something and then I get distracted by something else entirely !!! Slow card makers unite, I say ! 😂🤣😂
I'm the same 😂 I had a great idea this week for a card & started playing with techniques for it, got distracted watching RUclips videos and ended up making a mini album instead 🙄😂 My friend who came to visit me for the week asked me last night how the card was going...my reply was, Oh yeah I forgot about that 😂😂😂
To say I'm a slow card maker is an understatement! So many ideas and then changes, and more ideas. A whole afternoon is gone and I might finally have one card to show for it. Good thing I'm not a You Tube creator, I'd bore everyone to death wondering if I was ever going to have a finished card!
@@czdesign People shock me! Even if you think something is boring, just move on. You don't need to be rude. But you aren't boring! You're the real deal
Thank you, Cathy! My friends laugh that I am such a slow card maker. I’ve always felt bad about being so slow, but I do enjoy the process and enjoy letting creativity take me where it will.
I am 100% a slow card maker. I tend to make changes part way through the process and will start over. Once I get in a groove though I’m as happy as a clam and thoroughly enjoy taking my time. 😊
I also am a sllllloooow card maker😄 and can spend hours choosing colours/design, ink blending, die cutting, assembling etc. In my opinion our cards are like mini works of art, and like artists the process of creating is part of what we love. Thank you for sharing your designs and your love Cathy ❤
I was laughing with your running commentary, that’s the sort of thing that happens to me all the time! I just spent an afternoon gluing diecuts to a background, and no the card is not finished, lol. Thank God for RUclipsrs like yourself that give me a starting point, otherwise nothing would get done. Very pretty CAS card even if it wasn’t so CAS to make!
Great card! I am definitely a slow crafter…I’m learning to just enjoy the process, and not pressure myself to go fast. Also…I Laughed Out Loud when your dies stuck to the magnet from your Empress….I can’t tell you how many times that has happened to me!
I stew over my imagined design, pouring over my AirTable inventory photos, and referencing my Pinterest categories. Then when I’m clear on my design, I get to it. I make around 1000 cards each year for personal and charity. So, there are almost always designs swirling around my brain. Love all your inspiration! 🩷
Thanks so much for sharing the mishaps - helpful, educational and hilarious! (I was rolling with laughter when you laid your magnetic mat on top of the die set)
Beautiful card. I must admit I laughed out loud when you had some of your layering frames stuck on your magnetic mat. Too funny, but I love watching you create.
Your card turned out great. So darned cute! ❤ I am a slow card maker but I am okay with that. I had years of practice being a slow scrapbooker. The joy is in the creative process, really. Today I made a layout for the first time in almost half a year, and it did not suck, even though I fussed and stuck and unstuck things for hours. It was fun and I loved the finished (not a card) project.
Had to chuckle with the worded commentary! Great recovery and such a nice card. I’m more of a mass production kind of card maker (I donate 100’s of cards a year) so I work in batches. When I do just make a single card, I tend to take my time and make the card special and enjoy the process.
Great save on the card. I love the painted background; I never get it right so I’ll try your technique. The bride-to-be will love this. (oh those dies!😅)
That’s a pretty card! 😍 I love that you keep the mistakes in. It’s a constant reminder that we don’t have to be perfect. ❤ It also shows that you are human and not an AI or robot designer. 😂
Cathy, I love how you just keep plugging along. The icing was the magnets! All I could think was "Poor Cathy. What next?" I love watching you. I always enjoy your videos. Thanks so much for sharing with us.💙💜💚
I'm one of those slow card makers. I love all the inspiration you and other designers post because what takes me the longest time is deciding colors,products I want to use. Time just flies when I'm in my craft room!
I am definitely a slow card maker. I only have a partial plan going in when I make a card. I love how you were able to save your card despite some of the obstacles that you ran into. You did a great job.
OMG! You make cards like I do! Formulate a plan, compile supplies, start with good intentions, pause, change something, pause...stop...FIX something 🙄...regroup, incorporate the fix into the new design...VOILA!!🤷🏻♀️ A card is born!🥳
I’ve never really understood the desire for fast cards, but then, I have a lot of time to craft. I’m all about enjoying the process! Thanks for this video.❤
I'm so glad you saved the card! It can be so disheartening when you think you've finished a card and you see something that you can't unsee! I love your videos x
Cathy, thank you for showing us this process, wrinkles & all. It's easy to assume we are the only one who has these things happen. Crafting can be messy, but oh so rewarding! ❤
I am also a slow card maker. I have to try multiple papers, stamps, etc. and usually end up with a finished project I like better than what I "planned".
I don't think I have ever had an inner Picasso. (LOL) And yes it takes me forever to make decisions and change my mind. Thanks for the help Cathy. Love your stamp and paint cards. Much more down my alley.
That was fun to watch. Great card too. I also have the technology to create this card. What did I learn today? Have fun and that liquid adhesive remover is a miracle product. Thanks for the share, look forward to your next card sesh 👉
I am definitely not fast. Unfortunately, I am not creative so I am quicker at buying supplies that I never use than I am making cards. Sometimes, I need a card and just say, nope. Beautiful card!
Great save of your beautiful card today!!! I never knew about this product, so my mistakes usually get tossed out or put in an oops box to maybe do something different.😂
I love everything about this card - including the journey to get there!! I sometimes think I spend more time fixing things and changing course than I do actually making the card. 😄
Oh dear sweet CZ! Thank the Lord for you! I’ve done the same error as you did. Added bonus when you can salvage the top layer. Caught the replay. I started ukulele lessons today. Years ago I played the guitar but now with rheumatoid arthritis I just can’t do it. Cords on the Ukulele are much easier. Love ya girlfriend.❤
Love your videos, Cathy. I love the simplicity of the design. I rarely think about using such small stamps, but you have shown how great it can look. I was thinking to make a wedding card and use the brides colors for the background colors. Wouldn’t that look awesome. Thanks for all you do!
When I’m trying something new or designing something new I’m slow as molasses. However once I get the card how I like it I can replicate it varying colors quickly.
I always take longer than expected when making a card. I had a similar issue with metallic paper…I was heat embossing a greeting after glueing to silver card stock. Had no idea that I was too close and the heat changed the silver it came color! So I improvised and added some pearls to cover it up! Came out great! Your card turned out beautiful!
I just made my first card yesterday using heat transfer vinyl and foil on my cricut and it turned out pretty good. I hope my daughters teacher likes it
Being new to cardmaking, I am slow also. I start with the mindset that I know what im going to do.. low & behold... I done change ideas like 2 times. I'm glad I caught this video.
Love the colors! I'm definitely a slow card maker, too. I don't like to rush. I feel like it jams up my creativity. I don't usually like the end result when I do either. I find it relaxing to just take my time
This was a great video. So many of us experience the same thing and it's good to know that it can be salvaged and it's not the end of the world. Thanks Cathy for sharing. This simple card style is such a great layout. --Kristin
Beautiful card and a great save! I really appreciate that you showed how you solved the problem. I tend to stop, discard the card, and start again. I am a slow card maker and enjoy my crafting time. I mostly make individual cards except at Christmas when I make multiples of the same card.
I have to agree with your analogy of “it takes as long as it takes”. I’m not trying to mass produce cards…..I usually only make one to two cards that are exactly the same and that is because I usually give one of the two to my mother who loves to send out cards. I’m just trying to have fun. It’s been suggested many times that I should sell the cards I make to recoup craft supply costs but that would turn my hobby into a job and would ruin my fun. 😎
I love this card. I definitely want to create something similar I also appreciate your showing how you saved this card - I try to save as much as possible.
I totally agree about taking my time making a card. I have SO many no need for quantity but the relaxing effect of creativity is my goal! Lovely set and card, Cathy!
I am grateful that you leave missteps in your videos. It is nice to know that even experienced card makers need to take a minute and re-think sometimes. It makes it much less intimidating. Thank you!
I’m making my daughter‘a graduation card (with some CZ designed stamps and stencils). So far, over 16 hours in and estimate another 2-3 before it’s finished 😊.
I took apart an entire shaker card once. It was a mini slimline with three different shaker windows. I did it because I decided I wanted to color in the background and I just couldn’t let it go. 🤣
Thank you for creating this, because many times I have felt like I am no good at this because I take too long to make a card. Makes me feel better that I am not alone, LOL!! Love the card and all the tips for when you mess up and what to do to salvage the card
Thank you for sharing. You have a good eye. The wider border made a big difference. I didnt know of the product that took the tape off. I always learn something new from you. 😁🌸
Hi, my name is... and I am a slow card maker. Sure, I've got a few faster techniques in the arsenal (BetterPress) and some labor intensive (no line Copic coloring) but, I agree, the joy is in the creative process. And, oh, what a process. Another lovely clean and simple card. I fully relate to the captions, changes, and corrections. All creators work at their craft. If it appears otherwise, I am skeptical 🙃

Too funny, thats soo me.
Haha you wouldn’t believe the amount of footage I cut out of my videos because I am soooo slow
Oh trust me! I get comments where people just say things like, "Slow and boring." So, I get that!
@@czdesign People shock me! Even if you think something is boring, just move on. You don't need to be rude. But you aren't boring! You're the real deal

Love how you salvaged that panel, Cathy! SO good to know that Undu trick : )
The magnets 😂, lovely card in the end. Your videos make me smile, thanks CZ
So glad!

Thanks for showing us the oops and how to fix. Most things are fixable!
Cute! Every time you said “clink,” I heard “Klink” & thought of Hogan’s Heroes! 😂 Way to stick with it & save the card! 😊❤
I hear NOTHING! (said in my best Klink accent!)
@@czdesignYes, that would be Sgt Schultz. He would not see any oopsies on your card, either! 😂

Same here!
Awesome card, simple & elegant! Cathy, you did it again, thanks for showing how to salvage artwork. Oh the pieces I’ve thrown away…😢
Morning Cathy! Watching in Illinois. 😊 Always enjoy watching you create. Love the card! TFS
Love the card and the way you calmly fix the boo-boo. Thanks for all your ideas. I enjoy your videos very much.
Oh my, I truly did LOL! Love the way you saved the card, we NEED to see those moments too! Beautiful card!
I'm so glad you saved the card! It can be so disheartening when you think you've finished a card and you see something that you can't unsee! I love your videos x
Cathy, thank you for showing us this process, wrinkles & all. It's easy to assume we are the only one who has these things happen. Crafting can be messy, but oh so rewarding! ❤
Way to save the day! Laughed at your dies getting all crazy! Great video on keep going!
Love it❣️ thanks for keeping the boo boo in the video lol can always count on you to save the day 😀
I am also a slow card maker. I have to try multiple papers, stamps, etc. and usually end up with a finished project I like better than what I "planned".
I love the pop-up commentary. You crack me up. The magnets! Your card came out beautiful. I love that you used silver.
Lol, I'm glad!
I don't think I have ever had an inner Picasso. (LOL) And yes it takes me forever to make decisions and change my mind. Thanks for the help Cathy. Love your stamp and paint cards. Much more down my alley.
The joys of salvaging a card😁
I've been there many times!
wow you were freaking me out when you put the Un-DO on the back lol ! Glad it all worked out -great save!
haha! yeah, i was fairly certain it would work!
Never thought to just do a little water color like you did. Great card.
That was awesome ! Sticking up on that magical adhesive remover 😂😂😂
Right?!
That was fun to watch. Great card too. I also have the technology to create this card. What did I learn today? Have fun and that liquid adhesive remover is a miracle product. Thanks for the share, look forward to your next card sesh 👉
Beautiful card!! I am DEF a slow card maker, but like you said I enjoy the process
I love a good save ❤ Great cards Cathy!!
This is great girl! It occurred to me today that your voice is soothing. The Bob Ross off card making ❤
well, that is high praise!
I am definitely not fast. Unfortunately, I am not creative so I am quicker at buying supplies that I never use than I am making cards. Sometimes, I need a card and just say, nope. Beautiful card!
I love taking my time with a card. I may have several ideas for my card, and it takes me a while to design it.
Great save of your beautiful card today!!! I never knew about this product, so my mistakes usually get tossed out or put in an oops box to maybe do something different.😂
I love the amount of white space you are able to achieve. It’s just not something I can do
You did a great job of salvaging the card!
Beautiful card Cathy,, it's all about the process and not necessarily the outcome xx
Lynn Le Bel I am there with you Cathy, I am not fast but love the process. I say good things are accomplished with time and patience!! Great card!!
So true!
I often work on “card parts” long before an actual card gets put together. I too am a “slow” card-maker!
LOL, you're totally me as a crafter. Learning how to fix mishaps. You'r end results are always amazing. Mine, not so much. Still learning.
I love everything about this card - including the journey to get there!! I sometimes think I spend more time fixing things and changing course than I do actually making the card. 😄
The card is absolutely beautiful, Cathy!
I’ve spent over 20 hours working on a single card before!
Compared to me, you’re a very fast card maker!🤗🫶🏻
Oh dear sweet CZ! Thank the Lord for you! I’ve done the same error as you did. Added bonus when you can salvage the top layer. Caught the replay. I started ukulele lessons today. Years ago I played the guitar but now with rheumatoid arthritis I just can’t do it. Cords on the Ukulele are much easier. Love ya girlfriend.❤
Right on
Thanks for showing how to make a beautiful card with unplanned happy accidents along the way. This is my kind of card making!
I really do love watching you create. Card is so pretty. I am going to try that background coloring. TFS
That is really pretty! I love how those inks look on the background!
Never thought to us UnDo to save a peel off!!! That's a great idea! I'm the original mistake-maker so any help fixing things is tremendous! 👏👏👏
Oh it can save many boo boos!
Love your videos, Cathy. I love the simplicity of the design. I rarely think about using such small stamps, but you have shown how great it can look. I was thinking to make a wedding card and use the brides colors for the background colors. Wouldn’t that look awesome. Thanks for all you do!
Great save! Card is beautiful 😍
Beautiful card! I so enjoy both your talent and your sense of humor. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Love your blouse, it’s a beautiful color.
Yes! Those oops always take more time than you expect. Great save - love the card!
Great card! So glad you showed the sliver layer & your try to repair it. And you did! Knowing different ways to fix a card is important.
When I’m trying something new or designing something new I’m slow as molasses. However once I get the card how I like it I can replicate it varying colors quickly.

Lovely card. Thank you for keeping in the mistakes and mind changes. I love seeing you rescue a card. It's a learning experience on how to fix issues.

This is so soft & pretty. Love it !
I’m a slow to medium speed card maker but I’m okay with that. I enjoy the process.

Hi, my name is... and I am a slow card maker.
