Wow! One of my very favorite things is gossamer butterflies. Just breath taking. It is so nice to see what gals do “ just messin around!” Lol
Oh wow I didn't realize that made my other favorite stuff as well.
So beautiful and yet so easy! I'm excited to try this! Thank you
Thank you so much Terri, but I should warn you, these are a little addictive to make! 😄💕💕
That's ok, my mom loves butterflies (well most people do, don't they?) And I'm always looking for ideas to make them. So thank you again.
Thanks for sharing this awesome idea!
You are so welcome Donna! I’m thrilled that you enjoyed it! 💕💕
Wonderful ideas Karen, excited to try it. Thanks x
Thank you so much Michele! I hope you have lots of fun with your scraps! 😄💕💕
This is a little addictive, and I keep playing with what can go into those folders! Thanks so much again Michele! 😊💕💕
What an amazing idea! Thank you for sharing! All your creations are BEAUTIFUL! Clearly I need to "mess around" more with my craft supplies! Lol
Oh, and your cards are GORGEOUS!
Thank you so very much Susan! That’s really kind of you. I hope you have lots of fun “messing around” with all your supplies! 😄💕💕

Beautiful!

Thank you so much! 💕💕
Love this technique. I. Going to try it. Thank you.
Just a warning Kate - it’s a little addictive! 😄💕💕
Thank you for showing all the different mediums you can add to laminating pouches. Your butterflies are gorgeous, Karen!
Thank you so much Loll! I really enjoyed these. You never know what might come out of the laminator! 😄💕
Thank you for sharing these different techniques - Butterflies are gorgeous!
You are so very welcome Karen! The butterflies are a favourite of mine. 😄💕💕
I don't own enough stuff to make all this stuff yet but I love watching. My hands shake a lot sometimes so it might be easier to work with the laminating pouches than paper. I found out just recently that small dies don't work so great for me cause I can't separate the paper after I die cut with out taring it to shreds cause my hands shake. So I want to get some bigger dies that I can work with maybe. I tried to make my husband a birthday card. I used the Happy Birthday die and tore it to shreds trying to get the words out after I ran it through the machine. So when I get a butterfly die I want to try the laminating pouch. I only have the basic squares, circles and a couple others right now. But soon I hope.
That’s too bad Connie that you’re having such a tough time with your hands! You’re probably right about the bigger dies being easier and there are lots of beautiful butterfly dies that are a bit bigger. Also, have you tried putting a piece of wax paper into the die first and then your cardstock? The wax paper helps the cardstock release more easily, so you may find it easier to get the die cuts out. 💕💕
What a fun new technique to try!
It is really fun Martha! And maybe just a little addictive. 😄💕💕
I can’t believe I never thought of this! Thank you so much, they are so beautiful!
Thank you so much! I should warn you that these can be quite addictive! 😄💕💕
I will give that a try..thanks
You’re very welcome Paula and I hope you have fun! 💕💕
This is genius! I would never have thought of this. Thanks!
Thank you so much Cindy! It’s a really fun technique to try. 😄💕💕
Stunning. I just recently discovered your channel ❤️❤️
Thank you so much Marty! Who knew laminators could be so fun?! 😄💕
What a fun idea! I have a ton of those folders, now i know how I can use them! Thank you!
Thank you Julie and I hope you have loads of fun with your laminator! 😄💕💕
So beautiful!! I love them!!
Thank you so much Anna! 💕💕
Very fun! Thank you for the inspiration!

Thank you so much Athanasia! They really are fun to make! 😀💕💕
Absolutely love this idea 😮😊😊 it's gorgeous 😊 Have liked and subscribed so looking forward to more of your lovely tutorials 😊
Thank you for sharing this with us 😊😊 xxxx
Thank you so much Vi for your kind comment and for subscribing! I find I’ve made those laminated butterflies repeatedly and I never tire of them. 😄💕💕
Absolutely ♥️♥️♥️ this Butterfly. Looking into starting with Alcohol Inks and have seen other laminator techniques, but never both together
Thank You x
Thank you so much Sarah! It’s so fun to put the two together and see what comes out in the end. Just be sure to let the inks dry before putting them through the laminator - I tell you that from experience! 😂😂💕💕
Love these butterflies, I'm making my card for my granddaughter this weekend. Thank you.❤❤❤
Thank you so much Wendy! Those butterflies are a bit addictive so I hope you have lots of fun with them! 💕💕
Oh wow... what fun! I can't wait to try this. They really at soooooo pretty!
They are really fun Teresa and a little addictive too! Have fun! 😄💕
😍😍😍 Fantastic ! Thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you so much Isabelle! 🥰💕
What beautiful cards. Very clever and thanks for sharing this, much appreciated :)
Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked them! 💕💕
Beautiful cards; thanks for showing us how to use our laminator and the pouches!
Thank you so much! I hope it works for you! 💕💕
Such a lovely idea
Thank you so much Merrilyn! 💕💕
Amazing project accents! I love this creative idea. Gorgeous
Thanks so much Jennifer! They do make really beautiful accents, but it can be a little addictive! 😄💕💕
Love, love, love this idea! Looks like I need to get a laminator. ☺️👍
I’m so glad you liked it and YES to the laminator! 😄. I hope you have fun with it! 💕💕
Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome Jackie! Have fun. 😄💕
What a beautiful idea 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much Steffi! I can’t take credit for it though as I saw someone use laminating pouches a couple of years ago on RUclips and then Jennifer McGuire did a video also about a year later. But it’s a really fun technique with lots of possibilities. 😄💕💕
Wow great technique. Thank you for the demonstration
Thank you so much June! 💕💕
This is absolutely gorgeous!!! I can’t wait to try this. I bought a laminator recently and haven’t had time to explore all its creative possibilities yet. This technique wins hands down. So, so beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! I hope it works for you and you have fun. 😄💕
@@KarensKardzz You’re most welcome! And I am sure it will work for me, after your excellent instructions! I hope the alcohol ink that oozed out from your first attempt didn’t ruin your laminator… Great tip not to go right to the edges. So good that we don’t have to make the same mistake!
Oh what a cool idea, thank you for sharing I love butterflies so will give this a try❤
Thank you so much Karen! I’m almost always making these butterflies now as I love the colour variation and the see-through wings. I hope you have fun with it! 💕💕
Such a creative technique. Thanks for sharing all of the extra tips with us and what worked best 🥰
Thank you so much Darlene! It’s a really fun technique and adds such a nice look to cards. 😊💕💕
This is a great idea! Thanks so much for sharing. The butterflies are gorgeous 😍💕
Thank you so much Helen! The butterflies are a rather addictive thing to make. 😄
Beautiful butterfly,thanks so much for sharing. I need to start using my laminator more!
Thank you so much! I love those transparent wings and all the fun colours of the alcohol inks. No two butterflies are ever the same. 😄💕💕
This is beautiful, will definitely be having a go, soon.
Thank you so much Marcia! It’s rather addictive, so beware! 😄💕
I love this technique. I purchased a whole box of pouches and have been trying to come up with some way to use them. Thank you.
Thank you Rita! I love the butterflies from the alcohol inked pouches. I hope you have lots of fun with your laminator. 😄💕💕
Really pretty thanks for sharing x
Thank you so much Clare! 💕💕
Wow!! What a gorgeous technique. I want to do this with my laminator. I confess I have never broke open my alcohol inks. Time to give them a whirl on this wonderful project. Thanks so much for sharing. Beautiful!
Thank you Annie! That is a fun technique and I’m sure there are loads more possibilities for it. I hope you enjoy the alcohol inks too. 💕💕
Wow, the butterflies are just stunning! But your ideas with the leftovers and the other things you die cut are gorgeous!! Definitely a great idea which I will try out very soon. Thank you for sharing 👍
Thank you so much Anneke! I hope it works out well for you too. 😄💕💕
Wow! I'm late in finding you but so pleased I have. What a fantastic use of the pouches! Thanks for sharing. I'm now subscribed and going to be catching up on all your videos 🦋
Thank you so much Margaret and I’m so glad you subscribed! Those pouches have lots of possibilities! 😄💕💕
So pretty! What a wonderful idea for the laminator and pouches! I’m just now finding your channel, subscribed!
Thank you so much for your kind comment and for subscribing! It really is fun to use the inks in those laminating pouches and I hope you have lots of fun with them! 💕💕
I sure am inspire to give this a try - L O V E those beautiful butterflies .... thanks ever so much
Thank you so much Anne! You may find it addictive. 😄❤️
Cool
Thank you so much Paula! These are really fun. 😊💕💕
What a unique idea! Those embellishments are stunning! Instead of stamping with the Pigment ink, now Tim Holtz has come out with an alcohol removing pad and I wonder how that would stamp on the alcohol ink before you run it through the laminating machine. I can’t wait to try this!
Thank you so much Tricia! I think that would be really fun to try the alcohol removing pad, and I hope it works out! 💕💕
Just beautiful Karen! I'm a long time crafter (even before it became popular) and I love to see what others are doing. This is such a good idea! I'm now a subbie! TFS..... Oh and hi from Bonnie Scotland. 💙
Thank you so much Carol for your kind comments! And hello to you from frosty Canada! 😄💕
Love this! Can't wait to try it. Will it work with dye inks?
Thanks so much Nancy! I have tried it with dye inks and I’m sorry to say it doesn’t work very well. They seem to lose most of their colour when you laminate them. But I have tried using some different Cosmic Shimmer metallic gilding polishes and they worked fairly well. 😊💕💕
Sooooo beautiful. I'm crazy about alcohol inks, but don't have a laminator, any work arounds for that. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Leandra! Alcohol inks on acetate would give you the same look I think. And I agree, the alcohol ink look is so beautiful! 😄💕💕
So creative and so gorgeous. Thank you for sharing. I can't put off buying alcohol inks any longer. Have you seen the videos on laminating with mat laminator sheets? Makes things look like vellum.
Thank you so much Michelle! I have seen some of the matte laminations too, but just haven’t bought the laminating pouches yet. More fun things to try soon though! 😄💕💕
So beautiful, one day I'll get time to play. I wonder what lunar paste would be like, maybe too opaque.
Thank you so much Faith! I’ve tried a few pastes too but without too much luck. They seemed to melt more and started oozing out. 😲😬💕
Wow! Stunning! And some of your backgrounds are beautiful. Do you have a video on how you made them?
Thank you so much Cath! I’m sorry I don’t have a video on how I made the backgrounds for those cards. I had to go back and watch the video to see what the backgrounds were 😂. But I think most of them were either stencilled through a die cut background or were embossed. I think whatever you put those laminated pieces on will look good though. 💕💕
So beautiful. Please can you do a video on how you made the flowery bits in this video???
Thank you so much Stephanie! I made the flowers in exactly the same way. Just alcohol inks in the laminating folders, let them dry, ran them through the laminator and then just die cut them with flower dies. I hope that helps! 💕💕
I have just discovered this video (a year after it was posted), and I must say that this absolutely lovely! I will definitely be giving this a try. I have replayed the video twice but want to ensure I understand... Do you stamp the white image on the inside blank portion of the pouch before laminating? Or should the image be stamped on the outside after it has been laminated? Or does it depend on whether you use pigment or StazOn, and if so, which do you use on the inside of the pouch? Thank you for sharing this wonderful project! ❤
Thank you so much! If you are using a pigment ink, I stamp that on the inside and then let it dry (which can be overnight). But if you have a Stazon ink, you could use that on the outside. I have also used VersaMark ink and embossed on the outside, so that’s another option. The dye inks won’t work at all, either inside or outside. I hope that helps and hasn’t made it too complicated. 😄💕💕
@@KarensKardzz A perfect and thorough response - thanks so much for clearing that up. Can't wait to try this! ❤
Do you ever show step-by-step how to make some of the cards you use in these videos. I love this idea, but would like more illustrations on making the actual car.
Thank you so much for that thoughtful comment Sharon! I have made more in depth videos for other cards, but they are usually more complex card folds. I’ll have to try to include more of the card making process in future. Were there any cards in particular you wanted me to show?
Beautiful! Why do you put it in another paper through the laminator?
Thank you so much! I find that if I’m adding in any glitter or other things into the laminating pouch, the glitter will shift around if I don’t support it well enough with the sheet of paper. But I frequently run it through a second time without the extra paper to make sure it gets a good seal. I hope that helps… 😊💕💕
@@KarensKardzz ☺️
I am rather confused.
Did you make these butterflies from scratch or use a pattern? You mentioned something about the butterflies being from a British stamp maker, Chocolate Baroque, yet I see you cutting out your own butterflies.
How did you get the white lines on the butterflies?
I’m really confused!!
Please clarify if you’re using the Chocolate Baroque butterflies as a pattern or not.
Would you be so kind as to show HOW you drew the lines on the butterflies?
Hi, those butterflies are made from the Chocolate Baroque stamps. I stamped them onto the laminated folder with VersaMark ink and then covered them with white embossing powder which I then heat set. Once they had cooled down, I cut around the butterflies with scissors. I hope that helps ... 😀
I take it the heat gun doesn’t effect the lamenting pouch?
I’ve managed not to melt my laminating pouches so far 😄, but I am careful to have my gun pre-heated and keep it moving around. It can also help to reseal the pouch if it starts to separate after cutting or folding. I hope that helps. 💕💕
Wow! One of my very favorite things is gossamer butterflies. Just breath taking. It is so nice to see what gals do “ just messin around!” Lol
Thank you so much Dottie! These were really fun to make. 😄💕
