I am so happy that you're still allowing Leslie's tutorials to be shown she is sorely missed. She bless the world around her and all that got to be with her kisses and hugs to to Leslie in heaven we miss you
I just found Leslie as a suggestion from youtube, and I joined her site before realizing that she had passed on. It just breaks my heart. So much talent, I know she has/will be greatly missed. She seemed lake a kind an gracious lady. Thank you for keeping her site alive. She had so much to give, it would be a shame to lose it.
Blessings to y’all. You were very lucky❣️🙏🏼
Wow so sorry to hear this. She seems like such a sweetheart.
Oh, Really? How sad. Her spirit will last forever on RUclips.
I just found the video from her family. What a kind thing to do, to let her RUclips subscribers know what happened to her. Can't imagine how they got through it. Thanks for letting us know first.
How sad, I was just watching, thinking what a sweetheart she seems to be. Thank you for sharing that she's passed. Peace and love to her family.
Just found out from your message! In sorrowful mood now.
Your a special person , wish I had discovered your channel a couple of years ago . God bless you and love to your strong family for leaving your channel open for others to enjoy your talents xx
Love seeing the old Sizzix technology still being used
Beautiful! Love using different materials. I've used aluminum cans and embossed them for a card front also.
I would have not thought of metal tape. Thank you for the video!
this tape can be found in many widths and thicknesses just like foil for Kitchen use but search local HVAC supply stores, some only sell Wholesale to businesses but some like WW Grainger also sell retail to public. when you find a good fit stock up as you never know when Manufacturer may close and it has an unlimited shelf life. My fav is 4" wide and a bit thicker than yours but wider widths are also available if needed. the good brands will even stick to clean wet metal. also find an HVAC supplier that handle "Fiber Board" Duct products as they also have nylon paddles (Blue) to smooth out tape and often include 1 with multiple roll purchases as this is the main thing used to assemble the fiberglass board ductwork.
This was fun to see since I have those same Sizzlet dies and aluminum tape from home repairs!
Tks for showing this technique. Stay safe and blessed
I have been looking for new tutorials from her, and when this pop up l said wow she's back, but after reading the others comments, l am so sorry for your loss Beautiful Lady, may God Continue to Bless your family
Really beautiful pieces, thanks for showing us this!
I miss Leslie so much! She was so talented. Prayers for the family!
😢 I can't believe Leslie's channel is still up. Thank you Joe and family. She is greatly missed. 😭
I think of her often!
Omg, I'm so sorry. Sending prayers, love and comforting hugs. 🙏❤️🤗
Great Vid! If any of you gals want make the silver tape a bit tougher... you can laminate it with the wide clear packaging tape before you cut it out.
Love the look with this tape. Will have to go get some to use with cards and/or pages on mini albums. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Leslie,from a new subscriber in England,I do enjoy watching tutorials that use new elements,these cards are lovey,Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful card. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Awh I just saw below that Leslie has passed.. I’m very sad..So sorry for your family’s loss.. hugs
I love that tool that you are using to remove the parts of the snow flakes.
Just a hint on getting the backing paper off the tape: Bend a corner toward the metal side. The metal part this will usually separate the backing from the metal as the backing doesn't bend as easily and will try to straighten out.
I love working with metal tape as I have been cut by it more than once. Thanks for the Christmas card video as I am always looking for the unique Christmas card idea or ideas.
I've done this. I like the results.
Amazing. 6years lae. The holed drywall tape makes great cards, too!!!
This is so cool! I love that the duct tape already has a sticky background👍 TFS !
Super cute! I love getting ideas on using materials that aren't official "craft" materials. Next time hubby jokingly says, "Do you want anything from Lowe's? " I'm going to say, "Yes!" Thanks for another great video.
Carrie!! I'm so sorry for the delay in responding to your comment. Good grief! Three months you have waited. :/. Thank you for your kind comment on using metal duct tape on greeting cards. It was fun, and I'm sure you will enjoy finding ways to use it in your creative space.
Leslie
No worries! I know you are a busy lady.
+Carrie Hacker thank you, very much for letting me off the hook so easily. {hanging head in shame}
Leslie
Having a roll of this has opened my eyes to other uses, but I do not have any of the machines you have.
It was an honest video thanks
I do so miss you and your smile. May God comfort your loved ones. You were such a special lady.
Can't wait to try this! Hubby said he has some so I might try this out soon!! Thanks for sharing such a neat idea!! Diana
Those are so cute, I used to use that "tape", haven't in awhile. Need to dig it back out!
I just saw that she has passed away, so sorry. I will continue to watch her videos and God bless to the family and friends that will miss her.
June Lihrman 😮😢🙏🏾
June Lihrman this goes out to the family of Leslie, please please please keep these videos on RUclips
Cool! I never heard anyone outside of my Family say Beautimus. I love it! ❤️ 👍
Hi Leslie - Super beautiful! My only suggestion is fold over your metal tape to the backside of the card. It will help keep the edge of your card from being sharp. I love your video and suggestions!
I am getting a cricut explore for christmas and will try this out for sure.
Lucky You! That would be a great test. An electronic cutting machine vs the die cutting machine with metal tape. That could be quite interesting. I don't think I would be able to be patient waiting several months LOL. Rosemarie, you are very fortunate.
Leslie
Dec. 2022. Very helpful. Good use of the duct tape. I had that exact same flowered top you're wearing. Wore it until I wore it out. 😁
Thats so beautiful, thank you!
Beautiful cards Leslie, I have some of this tape, so I'm ready to try and make some cards myself, thank you for the tutorial
+flbrenda Woo Hoo, flbrenda, you are ahead of the game :D Alcohol inks work fabulous on this metal tape, too, if you want to give that a try as well. Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate you.
Leslie
Amazing idea I want to try.
A great new tool to make beautiful cards! Thank you!
Thank you Leslie. I have had some of that plumbers tape but forgot why I bought it...Thank you for your video's...I subscribed and thumbs up...I had to laugh when I saw that you had the original sizzix, I do to, but I put it away and forgot about it because since then I have the BIG SHOT, Big Kick, Grand Calibur (which I hate) and the Spellbinder Platinum. I think that is all of them...but that little machine was a great gift when I first started crafting...I LOVED THE VIDEO!!!
***Fun. Good video! I would try to use the metal tape backing, that you pulled off. You could place on paper, maybe lightly ironing like you can with freezer wrap, and the spray paint, or dab inks over them and remove the backing. You could also use the square with the cut out, as a stencil!!
Very nice card great job thanks
This is so neat I would have never thought about it
That metal duct tape is some really awesome stuff! You can use dies to cut the stuff, embossing folders (spread it on a piece of card stock first) for cool texture, alcohol inks for color....so many things to do with this stuff you get at a hardware store :D
Thank you for watching my video and leaving a comment.
Leslie
This is neat. I would like to try this. Thanks for sharing
great video..love your enthusiasm and obvious joy in finding something new
That's absolutely amazing! I wish I could think of all these interesting things on my own like you do. You go, girl!
Never thought of using that. Great job
Love watching your videos. TIP: use a repositionable glue dot to hold your card base in place while you are positioning the metal tape. Creative Blessings! ~ Kelly
+Kelly Henkins Thank you, Kelly! I don't know why I didn't think of that....so I appreciate your very useful tip.
Leslie
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
This was interesting, thanks for showing it ! It was cover and great,
wow, that was the greatest video I have seen in a long time. I Can't wait to try this for my Christmas cards this year. Thank you so very much.
Great video Leslie. I will have to go to the hardware store this weekend. Thank you
Sorry, I had computer troubles all day. Awesome video Leslie!!!!!. I had forgot this technique. It is hard to remember all the great techniques out there. TFS my good friend! Bobbie:)
+CraftyCritter919 Thank you, Bobbie. I've had internet trouble all day long as well and it was finally fixed an hour ago. Bummer :/
Hugs to you my friend - Leslie
Awesome, I will be using this technique next year. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful cards and very creative!!
Two beautiful cards Leslie! I love how you showed one sketch mirrored - it doubles the sketch possibilities! The metal tapes looks awesome! You are well on your way to Christmas card exchanges! TFS! Paige
+stmpgrl Thank you, Paige, for watching the video and leaving your very kind comment. If you haven't figured it out by now....I don't follow the rules very well :D I hope you have fun with your card sketches and seeing how you can "break" a few rules, too :D
Leslie
Hi Leslie, if you mark an X on the back it makes it easier to remove from paper. Thanks for your info.
Great video, thank you.
thanks for sharing such wonderful ideas how to use the metal tape
Good idea!
I know this a couple years ago but it is great 👍❤️👍
Great ideas
I love your videos, so easy to follow. I'll have to try this. Thanks for the great video.
Dear Leslie rest in peace
Great tutorial! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, Kay, for stopping by to watch one of my videos and leave your kind comment. I appreciate you.
Leslie
Just spotted this video, awesomeness! Thanks Leslie! I have some of that tape too but haven't used it for crafting although that is what I bought it for. LOL! You're fun to watch, makes me smile 😊
Thank you, Renie. You can do SOOOOOOO much with that metal tape. Put it on some card stock and run it through an embossing folder, use alcohol inks on it, as you saw - use it with die cutting machines. I hope you have been having fun with your tape. Also I hope you are doing well way up there in the north woods :D
Leslie
+Leslie Bockenstette I'm doing pretty well. In fact my sister and I went on a road trip to Iowa and spent a week with a cousin. Had a great time and met up with another cousin and a couple of my sisters sister in laws. Laughed a lot and got lost a little. Tomorrow we're going to play in her craft room and make cards, I think. Sure enjoy your posts on fb and videos. You and Joe make a good pair. Stay safe out there! I'm adjusting. Just takes time.
Renie, I am so glad to learn you have a big family to love on you during this difficult time. That is very special indeed to have someone to laugh with and share life with to help comfort you. Have fun making cards with someone else's tools and supplies LOL....that might just be trouble in the making. You may find something you JUST HAVE TO HAVE to add to your craft space. LOL
Hugs my friend - Leslie
So darn cute. I’m glad I found you.
What a great tutorial, and thanks for sharing it!
Brilliant!!

Hugs - Leslie

Leslie, I think it is called Plumbers Tape. I was trying to explain what I wanted to a guy in Home Depot and after I got it all out what I wanted, he figured it out, and says "ma'm, if you don't mind me asking, if you don't know what it is called, what are you using it for?" That is when I told him I was a crafter and he wouldn't believe what we use to make our cards, and stuff! He just laughed and said "OK!" but I think he was really thinking, Crazy Women! LOL You should have seen the other guys face when I told him what I wanted to use Magnetic Vent Covers for (my dies) He laughed and shook his head. I said well, sir, you should see what my husband needs out of my stash of Home Depot things that men use, and I then laughed...in fact we both laughed...It is very sticky! Thank you Leslie. THUMBS UP!

Well close. The metal tape is called insulating tape. Use on air ducts for air conditioning.
Never heard of the copper tape as mentioned in a later comment.
This is a lot of wk.
You are so gifted! Those are absolutely jaw dropping gorgeous! Very beautimous!!
I came across you, there’s always reasons!! I share your video with my sis! Thank you for sharing , want to try to make my dad one! Xoxo
Somehow I lost you so glad to find you again ; )
Really different & beautiful, Thank You.

Fantastic
Thanks, loved it. Love that you brought us something different. Anita
Thank you, Anita :D I appreciate you taking the time to watching one of my videos and leave your kind comment.
Leslie
Just watched this again. Thanks for trying the lighter on the back of the foil. I mentioned using thick embossing powder. I remember heating the embossing powder until it melted. Michael's sells the little electric pot. You leave it in the pot and use it when you want (yes it does get hard again). We dipped something in the embossing powder several times to make object thicker. Then used on a card. Also trying shink art again. Have fun and thanks
stunning cards love them big crafty hugs Kimmi
+Kimsniftycrafts41 Thank you, Kimmi. I appreciate you watching my video and leaving a comment.
Leslie
i think there awesome. i love different things incorporated into crafts.
+The1952trouble Seriously, thank you Debra, for your comments. I'm with you. If there is a way to use something unconventional in crafting I'm all over it :D Especially if it is in the low to medium price range :D LOL
Leslie
Thank you and especially for the great tips
Hi Leslie thank you for sharing your ideas with us it's a great and easy video hugs Gaynor x
