    Beautiful card Natasha ❤ I have never heard of an eclipse card, obviously not moving in the right circles! In fact, Not Moving.
    I'm housebound but I've learnt more techniques from you than I would ever do at a craft club. Thanks

    • @lynnehill8635
      @lynnehill8635 4 года назад +3

      Great card, as always, Natasha, and great tips from other people too. Thanks for always teaching us cool techniques - the tip about using the V to hold the space for the 2nd A is brilliant, and something I will use in the future.

    Loved the card! Now I'm going to have to buy some alphabet dies!
    Someone told me the clear embossing trick a while back and so I stocked up on clear embossing powder.
    I have found that the best bargain for good embossing powder is "Wow Embossing Powder Large Jar 160ml-Clear Gloss" (superfine) which you can find on Amazon (search for the phrase in quotes) for $9.50 (just checked, it's still available) Their small jars are 15ml for about $5-6, so for just a few dollars more you get more than ten times the amount. I have bought a couple of these and used about a third of one of the jars to mix with mica powder and create 24 different colored embossing powders.

    Just a tip with ribbons, if they look creased I use a small hair straighteners it's worked every time for me

    Instead of cutting and stacking letters if you cut the letters in foam it's really easy.

    • @sherylosullivan9619
      @sherylosullivan9619 4 года назад

      That’s what I do too, sometimes using a contrast colour. Much quicker than stacking cardstock.

    • @vickicervantes1817

      I was wondering, Where do you order foam from & what size will cut through the die cutting machine?

    • @sherylosullivan9619
      @sherylosullivan9619 4 года назад

      Vicki Cervantes I’m in Australia and I just get mine from any craft store, not an expensive one. I think it’s pretty cheap. In Australia, try Riot. Sometimes even the Reject Shop or Red Dot have it. It runs through the die cutter really easily.

    • @brucenjanmckerras7713
      @brucenjanmckerras7713 4 года назад

      You can buy foam sheets fron dollar shop type places plus the China mail ones. They cut with no problems on my Cuttlebug Bigshot .

  • @melissaedwards7431
    @melissaedwards7431 4 года назад +4

    I love eclipse cards but prefer a little contrast so the word is actually visible. After applying foam to the back of the letters I take a marker and run around the edge of each letter so it will stand out a little more. Hope some can use that tip!

    I used to make slimline cards back when they were just called DL!! They're very much back in fashion now!
    Never attempted an eclipse, liked them but had no clue how they were done, so that's now added to my list to try.
    Thanks for another great tutorial Natasha 🙂👌

  • @Mom05able
    @Mom05able 4 года назад +3

    This is gorgeous! Don't invest in a magnetic platform either, they still don't hold the dies, I have to tape everything. Love the eclipse technique, it's one of my favorites!

    • @suzannejurgens7069
      @suzannejurgens7069 2 года назад +1

      I have a big shot and I got a magnetic platform from close to my heart. I took my machine to my consultants home to see if her platform fit the big shot. The CTMH platform is only $20CDN so it’s very economical, I thought. This coming from a gal who gets most of her stuff from our consignment craft store! I used it for the first time last night and it worked for me!

  • @amymullins1566
    @amymullins1566 4 года назад

    I have the magnetic platform that came with my machine & HATE it! It’s basically small magnets placed inside the platform & will attract the dies & move them! I have to tape my stuff especially if it’s something that needs to be lined up. I’ve never heard or seen this card before so (as usual) THANKS for showing! I’m going to make one tonight for my husband’s upcoming birthday. You rock!

    I saw on another FB page where someone made one using the napkin technique. The napkin used was not an all over pattern but one with floral on the bottom and white on the top. It was stunning. Trending in cards: slimline, eclipse and and iris dies. Out: sequins, In: gems, Out: little animals, In: Geometrics, Out: muted colors, In: rainbows. Frankly I love all the new and old stuff. Just loving this hobby of ours.

  • @debralockhart94
    @debralockhart94 4 года назад

    Natasha, I made a THANKS card inspired by your card and I used glossy accents on the letters to help them show up a bit better. I'm not on facebook or anything so not sure how to show you or give you credit for your inspiration. I do thank you so much! I'm picking up a lot of tips from you which really helps because I have zero creative juices. Thank you again! Deb

  • @kylieb4836
    @kylieb4836 3 года назад

    A beautiful card - as always...lol. When I do these, I offset the letters slightly , just so you can see a slightly contrasting colour. But as you say, it’s all about preference. Thanks for another great tutorial vid ! ❤️

  • @CortyJ
    @CortyJ 3 года назад

    Looks amazing! The gloss from the embossing is an extra nice touch. I will have to try it doing stacked die cuts instead of little tiny bits of foam tape - looks better with a solid base, and less frustration! 😆

  • @bevp7838
    @bevp7838 4 года назад

    I have seen this idea, but don’t remember hearing it called an eclipse card. Now I know, and it’s on my list of things to try! I will most likely use some of my hoard of patterned papers. I do love them, but seem to have a hard time coming up with ideas to use them up. Thank you!

    Great job! Great minds think alike. I just did an eclipse card yesterday. I like your idea of adding colored cardstock as I wasn't thrilled with the outcome. Colored cardstock would have helped. I will post on FB! Thanks and hope you are having a great weekend!!!

  • @mjacksizzle
    @mjacksizzle 4 года назад +1

    You are so talented! I super appreciate how good you are at stacking the die cuts to make dimensional letters after I have been trying for a few months to get the knack of it. It’s very hard to get them so clean looking. Mine always look like garbage. Oh well practice makes perfect😅

  • @minikraut
    @minikraut 4 года назад

    Oh dear. There I was, thinking I had everything I needed to recreate your card idea (which is usually the case, one reason why I love your channel so much), now that. I went to my collection of cutting dies full of confidence - only to discover that the larger letter dies I bought are those which have a perforated line at the bottom!! No good. I have some nice numbers - but what to do with those? My phone number? Hardly. And I don't know anybody older than 100 years, so "happy 13276" is out, too. New baby card - difficult to make ahead. I thought about spelling a name in binary code. Sheldons might like it, but too long.
    So you are actually forcing me to hold my breath and use my deep cut knife for my Cameo 4, which I have been too shy to introduce myself to so far.
    Will let you know how we get on.
    Love from Germany!
