So today, I also on the set I brought this magazine as well and it's got the free Altenew layered dyes. Now I've used many layered stamps but I've never used layered dyes so as soon as I saw it I thought I've got to get that one because I've had the free Altenew stamps before the layered ones in the magazine and they were really good. So I've been playing around and these are all the stamps that I've been doing. So thanks Leanne. I think I know what I need to do. I've turned down the notification sound so hopefully that's better. So I've got, if I just take them out of the packaging just so you can see them a little bit better. This one I love and this has just got this really lovely. I do love a shake apart. You are amazing. These are the free sentiments that you can print off. Now there's free papers as well but I haven't printed them off this time purely because I'm just conscious of the amount of you know income using up on the printer and I've got loads of nice papers.  So in that sense if you're maybe a bit unsure with what is lighter and darker and stuff because sometimes when I've been putting together like all my purples and stuff I'm unsure which one's the light one which one's the dark one. But sorry my dad's just poked his head in just checking on me and my mum. So for that reason have a look at them just you click on the download and you can see all the previews of them decide whether you want to print them off but I was pretty you know happy to just do it myself but I did like the sentiments so I've printed off three pages of these ones here I just really love the font and just think they're really quite cute little saying so I want to do one with ascending hugs tonight and maybe hello beautiful I don't know see what you guys think.  So again if you don't want to spend time doing all the layered dies you can just use the frame one there and it will kind of all do that for you really. So that's what we're going to be using get rid of the magazine so yeah go back to the card so that's the shaker one there and this one didn't really come out very well in the picture. Nina brought the magazine today so looking forward to trying the dies yeah I love the dies they're really really good if I just bring this up a bit closer you can see the detail that you get when you layer up when you layer dies up so I was really pleased with them and even the little leaf detail there as well is really really nice so yeah that is a gorgeous gorgeous card and then keep myself tidy pop all these back in again so then I've done a easel card and again so this one if I just bring that one up there you can see I've used all the yellow tones here and I thought yellow and navy just worked really really well together and hey Karen that's one of my old school friends just popped in really love the little sentiment there and again just the leaves and everything and then this one just comes up pops inside like so and you've got a really beautiful easel card I seem to stick with the same kind of style cards I love shaker cards easel cards twisted easel cards um what other one do I do a lot of I think that's about it really they're just kind of my go-to ones I'm really confident making those um hi Kersti love yellow and navy yep it is just such a fun fresh kind of colors together I really like that one so that's that these are all six by six um then this one again really lovely and the papers that I've used for this one this one and this one yeah easel cards are great Laura I need that one please which one Kersti I'll pop it into work tomorrow for you um these are all using I was so excited to get these papers they are the new vna craft papers I've got two packs of six by six one pack of 12 by 12 and they are all um featuring designs um from the original textiles in the victoria and albert museum and yeah I just love them I think they're gorgeous prints so I wanted to start using them so you can see them there and again these um flowers I've used picked out three of the colors that are in the papers there and I just think again that's just got a really nice look about it yeah margie I have to put sequins on pretty much everything I make so just conscious my camera is higher up so I'm just bringing up the cards they're a bit a bit further up so you can see them that's that one and then the last one is on a six by no five by seven card overly so which ones would you like me to make tonight it's going to be um I'd really like to do the twist of the easel ones if you want to see me do that one again and I can do a shaker as well I don't mind um and then the last one is that one and I just love this teal greeny color that I've used and again just pulled out the flowers from the papers so if you're unsure what kind of colors you want to do the flowers if you've got paper you want to use start with the paper first and then choose your colors that you want and and pretty much just use the darkest color you know for this one the lightest color for that one and so on um and you'll still get really nice designs so that's that one so what do you want me to start making first it's kind of like blind crafting if you guys can tell me what to do easel please I want to see the twisted easel twisted easel yeah twist okay right I think we're we're all agreed it's going to be the twisted easel card first so let's get rid of all of this so I've already chosen what colors I do want to use and I've already gone ahead and die cut a lot of them I'm going to do one now because I want you to see how to do it but I'm going to do the twisted easel with these purple ones here and if I just bring them up they are gorgeous and I've used the glitter in these ones here and they are just so so pretty hi isabel so yeah so I'm going to be using those I'm going to die cut another one now with you although I think I've run out of the glitter because only one is used three so actually mum if you've got another one can you just pass me that that pack of paper there just that was all of that I think one of them's got the glitter yeah if there's another sheet then I'll do two more um well I'd use the light actually yeah I use the lighter one there we go she's got so much paper there you go thank you okay so um so this one I'm going to maybe I'll do these ones a little bit different in terms of what order I'm going to do the layers so I'll just and this is a really good one to use all your scraps because everything I have die cut is all been from scraps that haven't cut into any fresh paper so again I just like those kind of um projects so let's grab so first of all I need to do my lightest purple so for the main um base of the flower so I'm just going to cut some of this down here Jean I can have a look for you I don't know off the top of my head but yeah anybody out in the chat might know um I know most of our magazines do ship internationally um yeah I'm reading my mum's stash for this purple she's got loads of paper nothing new she says she's sat on the desk behind me she's doing what are you making mum she's making Easter cards we're trying she says and look up from my work and I see glitter love a bit of glitter right so I'm going to do one and do let's just do two just so I've got spare here and the twisted easel cards take no time at all as well and I think that's why I like doing because they're fun fold cards but actually don't take hours to make which is always good Karen says hello hello they can hear you okay so that's my lightest color so now I need the darkest color for the middle part so I think I'm going to use I kind of want it to be glitter though inside so right that's going to be that now I'm going to stick with that that two bits out there the medium so I'm going to do that one on top right that's that done the glitter ones you do have to run through a two times a few times or just put a little shim on top if you need to what is the volume number for the simply cast it is issue number 174 Connie where do you get the V&A papers please they're from hobby base it's a

I'm not used to doing this okay I'll just write that in the chats you should see it now yeah the links just popped up Beverly just have to have a little look on their website I don't know off the top of my head unfortunately but I was saying earlier most of our UK magazines do ship internationally they're all part of one big chain I think so um I'm pretty sure that they will do but again if you're starting off or you don't like paying out you know big bucks for some of the because I know Altenew is the I mean their stuff's beautiful but again it can be very pricey but you know for the price of this magazine which wasn't much how much should I pay for that one $6.99 and obviously you get all the downloadable papers as well loads of inspiration and yeah really a nice dice set again I'm not sponsored or anything I'm just doing this because I really love the magazine so I'm not getting anything from this just crafting with you guys so yeah they cut through pretty well just have to poke out a few bits and pieces of these but you can see there just how lovely it looks when you put it against that background what I would say is if until you're really kind of happy that you know what dies for what kind of colors just keep sticking throw it around there just keep sticking it back onto the kind of this card and maybe keep this wherever you're filing it away just so you don't forget really what one's what but you can always you know um go back to the magazine as well like I said I pre-made most of the flowers tonight but I just thought I'd show just how I assemble a few of them yeah I've got some of their stamps calf they are lovely I used their Christmas was it there yeah it was the afternoon yeah the Christmas um bows and bells I made the wrapping paper and they were layered ones I really like them okay this top one is quite fiddly you can see there it's a really really kind of skinny one so you do need to be careful with that but I'll show you how I stick it all down really easily in a minute so is everyone thawed out now from the snow well though now there's like flush floods everywhere I keep seeing on the news so again with all the things and whenever I say when you're doing bulk kind of die cutting or card making do all this first just literally sit there put a movie on just go through and die cut everything get it all done because it makes the whole process um much much quicker rather than doing one at a time putting it together and do another one and so on and so forth right so I've got those ready I've already pre-cut oranges and reds for the next card that I'm going to do and I've pre-cut and stuck down the leaves as well but I will show you one of those so what you want to do now is whenever I'm doing really detailed um dies and I've got to stick them down on anything whether it's just directly onto my cards or on top of each other just smear my hand in the glue um what is a small die this is tattered lace uh linda and it was from um hobby base but it's still available on ebay and I think direct from tattered lace it's called the baby blue it's brilliant me and my mum have both got them gotta go no worries kath thanks for dropping in still loads of snow northumberland but going slowly yeah I can imagine further up the line has been pretty bad so I've just put glue on my hand there and I'm just literally just dabbing it over and just really quickly you've now got all the glue on the bottom and then just line it up stick it on top and you can see there already how quickly and then again with this really delicate one and just you don't need much at all and this is a you know a good strong glue and I always start from this left hand side where it's got more of the pattern it's just a bit easier to follow and just stick that down turn the whole thing over and then you can just oh I missed that what's that oh come to florida no snow sunny oh yeah although I'm going to be flying back to china next week and my husband messaged and said it was 30 degrees yesterday so that's going to be a nice uh nice surprise but yeah florida definitely okay so that's that one now so that's all three that took minutes like yeah literally a minute to do so you can use the precision glues things like this where you get the fine can I do this one here this is just a stamping up fine tip one this is brilliant um but what you've got to be careful is quite a lot can still come out even from that tiny nib so even when you're doing something that thin you might end up splodging loads of glue over the end and then it ends up getting a bit messy I find oh just put it on my hand like this much much easier although if you've got little hairs on your hand it's not nice when you peel it off but I quite I used to don't know if anybody asks but I think probably everybody did when you used to just deliberately put glue on your hand in school and then let it dry and then peel it off so I don't mind so again do you get much snow where you live in china um up further north we live um just south of Shanghai and they had the first snow this year just the day me and my husband flew to the UK so that was the end of January they had the first snowfall um where we lived um in 10 years so they don't get it there but further up north and further inland it's really bad yeah they get lots and lots of snow and it's um they have a thing called the ice festival in oh gosh I can't remember the name of it now off the top of my head and they make amazing sculptures people come from all over the world different artists and create these absolute I'm talking like buildings made out of ice it's absolutely incredible we keep saying we're gonna go so hopefully we'll go next year thank you Connie so there you go so now I've got those lovely flowers I know it was like working in odd numbers with flowers so I've got five there I've got three here because I just think they kind of work better in odds so now we need to start putting together our twisted easel cards so I'm using premade six by six card bases these are just from the works in the UK you get a pack of 10 they're the premium ones because they are really nice they're 300 gsm so they're really good strong cards um and then I'm just going to score yeah very easy Margie if you just I always stick to the left hand side stick the left hand first and then just hold it up and just slowly go around and press all the rest down I'm going to do a couple more tonight as well so I'll go a bit slower on another one so you can see it so this is just a normal that's fascinating yeah hi do yeah I like I said I can't wait I'd love to go such as the normal six by six card but I want it to be the twisted style so open it up so now you've got your front and back facing up put it on an angle so your top right hand side is lined up with the six inch marker on the scoreboard if I just bring this up even more and then basically on this one my mum's got you should still see this I'm hoping it's still going to come into focus I'm slightly my video's about 30 seconds delayed so I'm just waiting to see if this bit comes into view on the picture before I go ahead and do it I think it will be should be now so you got the top so I say it was top right hand corner the corner of it put into the notch for six inches and then the bottom on this particular scoreboard my mum's got it has little marks here to say where the six inch one is so you just want to make sure that that piece the bottom left is lined up with the six there and then basically you can just score right down and it will join up corner to corner if you haven't got the scoreboard just use your ruler like so and just go from the top right down to the bottom left and just score and then you just want to fold that carefully like so and then you've got your easel card so obviously be like that in the envelope and then it pops up like so now choosing colours so I want to do this purple one I just pulled out a load of my mum's kind of purple patterned papers and I just want to see because stripes and flowers polka dots things like that work really really well so these are all part of the same paper pack and they're double-sided so I quite like those ones together they could be quite fun actually quite like the different colour glitter have like the light with the dark so that's that let's see what other options we've got here what's the same maybe those that's a little bit boring maybe with that because I want to have so I think I'm going to have the stripe on bottom like so these are all going to be on the top no I'm going to stick the stripe and polka dot no one's saying otherwise so that's what I'm going to go for I think make sure I'm not getting myself in a mess so I've got enough of the other colours right now I want a black a plain um plain purple I'm going to use if that one's going to work yeah I think that want to be good so I'm talking to myself a minute guys because I'm just trying to make sure I get I think I've got another one there yeah I'm going to use that for the circles I think oh actually hang on I've got this big paper pack here which is another it does say it's a craft must have and it pretty much it really is because it's it's really nice quality paper mania capsule sorted colossal colours 12 by 12 and you get loads you get 75 sheets so I'm just working my way through that but I think that then that starts to go a bit pinky then I don't know if it's going to match what do you think does that look nice little combo or the darker light or dark you choose I have a couple of bags but with like a small one yeah I've got the big shot and my mum's got and I've also got the a4 electric tattered lace but this is the brilliant little one just for yeah I keep it on my desk and I'd say probably 80 percent of my dies are small dies that fit through this so this gets used loads dark love the darker like the dark one yeah I think dark yeah dark seems to be coming through okay dark it is right so that's going to be on the top with the flowers and this is going to be on the base so I'm just going to get this one lined up first so the card is actually a little bit shorter than six by six or this is larger than six by six because it needs to be cut down no I don't want that pattern I'm just going to quickly just mark this with a little bit of a border around it have you got your trimmer can I pinch at least yeah our mum's making a lovely Easter card I'll see I'll see if she finishes when I do and then I can show you thank you that one is now going to go nicely yeah it's going to look good right let's get this one stuck down I don't like ripping this tear tape on this kind of paper because it sometimes rips the top off of it so I'm just going to just put three of these on because it's a thicker tape anyway so I don't need much I've run out of that glue roll that I used last time but those of you that watch me over a lot highlight using this stuff anyway so you've got the bone folder there have you got another one oh no you've got one here sorry you've got two don't worry I use this one thank you so just lie this one down so get a nice look so and then the top one it's going to obviously just go across both sides so first of all I'm just going to cut it right down from corner to corner on the diagonal and again what you want to do with this because obviously it goes off the edge so I'm just gonna take my cutting off just being a bit hot it's because I'm sat there's a radiator right to the right hand side of me right so I've got a little border here it's about one eighth of an inch and I want to have that obviously lying along this top score line as well so I'm just going to get a pencil mark and just roughly like so you only need to do it on one because you can then measure it against that one so now I'm just going to lie that down and use the black line on the actual or whatever markers it is that you have on your trimmer just so that I can make sure that they stay straight all the way down so I know that it's got a nice straight line next to that black guide and we'll just cut that through and then what I can do now is just sit that on top of the other piece again pop that in the trimmer making sure the top and the bottom are all in the right place and take the top one away and just cut that one off so now they will sit on the top and you'll see the nice equal border when we stick them all down okay so I'm going to get those two do I want to put anything else before I stick it down because there's always when you about before you're about to stick this down it's when you need to think do I want to put any ribbon under and things like that but I think I'm just going to go straight in and stick them on top keep it relatively simple for the live so usually I edit all these bits out in my video so I'm always I feel a little bit like conscious that all you're doing is watching me stick stuff down but I guess when I watch anybody live I actually quite like that so let me know if you do or if you're finding this boring please tell me because I always like to you know I'm I'm okay with constructive criticism just start from one whole edge so I'm not sticking any of my fingers underneath this right hand side I'm not sticking any of that down yet until I'm happy I've got a perfect straight line all the way down once I'm happy that that all lines up so even there I wasn't sure I can still move it obviously if you're using wet glue then you've got that wiggle room to change it if you want I'm going to start from the other corner I'm not happy with that line there we go so thanks Laura this last bit um you can do the more fun stuff putting it all together I think it's good to be able to see how someone else does things it's a learning experience yeah I think so too you know even down to just little bits like even just the way I cut this I guess like sometimes I watch someone do something I think gosh why didn't I do it that way that's so much easier or you know I'm always learning there's always something new and you guys are great too especially on my youtube channel so many people say oh Sam you know maybe try this or do that and I'm like oh my god yeah that's a really good idea because everything I do I just do because that's how I think it's best to do it but doesn't mean it is the right way they might have some glue stuck in them you might want to use no I'll clean them after oh I've just got some glue on my mum snips her stamping up snips um but I usually clean them with that surgical spirit she's just gone to pinch them to use them and um geez no it's this glue on him sorry I'm laughing and trying to read the messages at the same time it's just made me chuckle she's now frantically cleaning them in tears so right there you go so now you can see with those really nice mats on the card how it's all coming together now I think it looks really cool hi Sam great that you're live hello that one is all right this is now irritating me so we were saying about that glue on your hand and then peeling it off so I can just peel that all off now because I'm going to need to put fresh fresh glue on when we come to stick it down where I do some more just take that off there we go you can pick up tips just like uh showing how to put the glue on your hand the intricate die cuts yes you can right now we need to oh sentiment so where did I put all those because I said I wanted to use that um sending hugs and this will die cut nicely in a square because that's the next thing is building up that um let me just so you can see on the one I done here you need to kind of build up this focal area which is going to be what sits here and then I used I take this one back out again for anybody that missed it at the beginning so this is what I'm recreating so I've got one flower there and then obviously the two here but it's built up on three um circle die cuts but I think this one I'm going to do square so let's just put that one back to one side and grab the second one behind that pack mom I think it's got the square nest eyes in it they were on there but I think you pop them back yeah that one yeah thank you sorry so I'm just going to take out and choose so I need to grab this one and also so it's going to be white and then just talking to myself again the purple what other color did I do um you need to choose one more color right first or let's choose one so I'm going to do a rectangle actually so I think I'm going to get it in a smaller one again yeah so I'm going to die cut it first in that size and then use the next two up for the two other colors to make that little piece for the flowers to all stick on um that is so cool the tombo stays sticky when it dries yeah yeah that one is that one's quite not too bad but it does eventually just dry up sticky adhesive sheet yeah adhesive sheets if you use that as well they're really good um I'm moving that down sorry just checking all the comments so I can keep up to date with them also I think I cut that one down too short from the other sheet yeah I'm going to cut that from this one because that's the only thing I guess if you're good with re you know programming your printer when it comes to what it prints but you can't die cut these with you know if you wanted to do obviously that one with a big circle or an oval you then lose this one for example you get some of that image um there so yeah that's why I printed a few of them because I knew that I was going to have to sacrifice a few of them for other ones okay just line this one up it is defaulted to black font um but I just changed it so it's kind of this like I'm going to guess light to darkish kind of gray color because I just thought that goes with pretty much anything then okay so that's that one and then I need a different color purple so let's use this one for the next size up just can't stop to print on no just normal so it's actually really really thin and see through if I just hold it you may not be able to see you can see right through it so but I knew I was going to be um matting it on some more card so I guess if you just want it to be on its own um then I would suggest obviously running through thicker card but just make sure you run each piece of card through separately don't put multiple bits in because not all printers can take that much going through at the same time okay so that one is going to be on top of that one and then on top of this darker one again so that's the largest of them all so go down this end here so now I'm going to put some of this on foam back in the sentiment I'm going to stick directly down onto there I'm just going to use a strip of this thick double-sided tape where did you get the rectangle dyes from mum where did you get the rectangle dyes from um oh yes the works actually I saw them in there yesterday the works UK but also the works um online they've got loads of nesting dyes on there at the moment I think they just had a new delivery in because there was lots and I think they're about six pound five or six pounds maybe even four actually no more than no more than six though actually a good I give them thing mum well I have as well mum takes all my points now because obviously I'm not really here a lot but the works do a discount scheme card and we buy lots across stuff in there because I love waterlap paper all of their premium cards I get the wood veneers in there um coloring like coloring pencils there's just loads of good stuff in there and obviously it depends on branch to branch but they do like a what's they say loyalty scheme and every is it quarter every three months they send you vouchers and we've already got how much did that woman say 17 pound um in vouchers to come literally to spend on whatever you want which I thought was really good so again if you have one nearby I know they do all vary but like I said they've got online and you can use your card online as well because there's an area where you enter it in so okay so just put two strips of foam adhesive there on the back she's doing a really nice she's doing a easter egg shaped card looks really nice they are all now nicely lined up and now I've got this raised middle one because it's good for when you're sticking see that's going to look so cool on top of that and then oh don't want to lose my leaves because then you do have this pop of green which I think is just really nice but now if you imagine if I have that one there and then it's going to have a couple of the the leaves coming out like so already it comes together and of course I'm going to add some sequins to it as well so it should end up looking very nice so let's first of all uh so I want to do this one slightly different so first of all lay it down and you want to put this right in the center because you imagine when that person takes out the envelope this is what they're going to see first of all before they then realize that actually when you open it up so you just want to get this lined up roughly where you think it's going to sit I think that's about right so now I know I need to glue just kind of through the U of the word hugs that way there so I'm just going to now turn it over put some glue turn it over and again obviously just be careful now just kind of tack it down and then I can bend it over and just see there I've got a little bit of glue gone over but that should be fine I just quickly stick it in place and then lift it up so then that glue can dry without being stuck so now it's all about the accessories and I always kind of use that in the way that I dress as well my clothing's relatively quite plain but then I kind of bling it up with my jewellery and necklaces and stuff and that's how I kind of work with my crafting it's all the extra kind of accessories that will kind of bring it all together so I'm just trying to find something a bit heavier just to keep that up for a minute there we go and it's a good way now to start kind of playing around seeing what ones you want to put where how you want them to look I think one up there and one down there is going to look rather pretty and then one is going to be on the bottom here with more little leaves on it and that's obviously going to be our little stopper our kind of doorstop for the card okay I think that's set now that's not going to stick okay so I'm going to have one up here but I want to have these underneath first of all like so yeah so I'm just going to put some glue just stick that one down and then again I kind of want it swooping around the sentiment so just the tiniest amount you need hardly any of this glue and just keep kind of popping it in place each time just to check that you're happy with all the positioning I think that's going to look quite cute there like so and then I can just put glue just on a little bit there and stick that right down like so so just bring that one up you can see how that's starting to come together I'm going to do another one down here now so I'm going to do the lighter sequined one here down the bottom that's going to kind of sweep up the side again another little leaf on each side like so looking really good thank you Margie a little bit of glue each time I keep putting it back down in place just to check I'm happy with its positioning again a little bit of glue okay so that's now the other part so now when that comes up you can see how it lifts off straight away and that just looks so pretty now I just needed where decide where how high up you want it I mean you could have it right the way up here and if you had something really big you want it just display here but I always like mine kind of running if I don't get my hand in the way here so it's kind of in line with where I how I scored it earlier so just a you know a complete diagonal line from corner to corner kind of keep it there and then the idea is is you put a little piece of white card in here to write your sentiment or you could write your sentiment here or you could write it right on the back of the cards there's plenty of room to be able to write your message but I'm going to keep it like so and that is going to go down here again with well I think I need to cut another leaf like so and that's going to be lifted up on foam now so that it will sit like that and hold it together I just think that looks really really pretty a bit of standing oars amazed at how the cards come together thank you um thank you very pretty thank you Nina okay so um so this one here needs to go on some foam because it does need to be raised or if you are layering up like I layered up this sentiment then that would be fine you wouldn't need to put that on foam because it already has obviously had that done do I want it let me just check I'll do it about okay so now already that's in place so now I can pop a few of these around add some sequins as well I just kind of pick that up right let me just cut another of the leaves because I haven't done that yet oh I love it you know again I do it don't I do it in my videos I kind of talk to myself when I really think something's really pretty um so there you've got two little leaves and again it tells you've got your light your light colour is the main base and then darker colour for the detail so my light colour green I can find where I put it and there we go I already have some scraps just run the dark through first this I'm sorry this way you've got your little embossing machine this Beverly sorry it's um tattered lace um yeah it's not on hobby base it's actually on the um you can get it in hobby craft or you can get it direct from tattered lace website or if not ebay and amazon and it's called the baby blue maybe I'll do uh I think I might have three on the bottom actually I'm gonna do another one little cluster trying to tidy up as I go so I'm not left with a ton of mess at the end it was like a bomb had hit it after last week's live because I was throwing stuff on the floor and you're welcome Beverly no problem again the little details just all fall out so you don't lose these they're so tiny the amount of little like little dyes I've almost lost all the worst is um clear stamps when I've been cleaning them actually it was when I it was one of my um quite an early um youtube I think I mentioned I must have mentioned it on a youtube or something but a lady said oh she uses no I think I put it on a facebook group actually and I said I lost a very tiny stamp a clear photopolymer stamp and I was absolutely gutted and this lady said I'll use a colander she uses a colander to clean her stamps in what a great idea so now that's what I use or I've got one of those little um like um the kind of the thing that you put over the plug like catches hair one of those horrible gross things but they're good for also catching any stray stamps that may get through the net realized what I've done I've just swooped my little ones in the bin I've just seen one of it there looking at me why did I do that I just rescued them in the uh recycling bin I don't know why I've done that okay so again just a little bit of glue hello to all the new people that are watching I am currently in the process of finishing off this twisted easel card if you've got any questions feel free and uh if you'd like me to make another card after this because this one is nearly finished I am more than welcome to more than welcome more than happy to there I go again same random things so again you can see there how easily and again if you're using the wet glue you've got time to kind of just move them into place you can see there just the detail in the little leaves it's really sweet and I found a clear stamp on the floor today when I ran the vacuum yeah I found them in the most bizarre places stuck to like the back of bits of plastic or you know you get the plastic sheeting that stamped stick to I found it on other random stamps I've come across stamps months after I've used them thinking oh my god that's where it was and I found dyes stuck to magnets right in random places as well yeah in the end so I'm going to do two close together like so and then I'm going to do this one so now some sequins put a little bling finish even though it's got quite a lot of bling with the glitter okay so I've got these lovely love these they seem to go with everything they go really well with purple really well with pink and again just put a little splodge the tweezers and finally we've got the little metal tweezers you haven't got them over there you know I did have them next to me I've got a feeling of it's not under there it's just easy to pick up the sequins that's all about that one is that them oh yeah they do oh there they are shall we oh yeah no no that's the difference I don't like them they don't seem to pick it up very well it's all right I'll use these I've got the big silver ones so I can't find them that's my mum by the way she's here for those of you that have just come in and then just put a couple down there and I'm gonna do one right there let's do a few around the bottom here as well put two on top of each other or else find myself like hovering them I don't think I need or do I need another one should I really have three let's do one more there yeah and then one more at the bottom well I missed that what's that about the baby blue thanks for that Jude let me just have a look down there see what we've said before replacement plates try a company called slip screens they do stuff for motorbikes but also do plates with that all right thank you oh I think I need another one you can never have too many sequins some of these are a bit lumpy on the back that one's a dud don't like that let's get a little bit more one more like odd numbers and that one can go there and there you have it I think that's rather darling quite pretty just bring it up closer for you to see that's nice oh yes mum likes that she's just coming at look if I just bring it up a bit closer and you should now be able to see all that sparkle and yeah I mean you could still keep adding more to it really but less is more sometimes but there is room to I guess to still put a bit more you could easily have two roses down here um you could have two at the bottom I guess but I think that's really really really cute like I said I'm a bit ahead of my video I think they do that for I guess maybe if there's an issue or something you can stop the video quickly so I'm just holding it here for a little bit longer just so I can see well maybe you guys can see it can you see me holding this up now then because the what I see is I it's still down like I said I'm about maybe 30 40 seconds behind but um yeah look at the way it catches the light there it's gorgeous let's stick that sequin down a bit more there so I'm just going to let that all dry um would you like to see me make another thumbs up beautiful excited to get the magazine and dies yes lovely the leaves look really good just beautiful yes we can see yes oh brilliant good love it thank you Laura so what I've been on just over an hour do you want me to do some more I think it was about an hour and 40 last week I like I said I don't mind because um my evening is free okay cool I will crack on and do something new so I'm going to keep that one like that just so those sequins can set mum I'm just popping out there a minute okay just in case you see it right so I had pre-done these oranges and I've got a random red as well I've also still got these two and then when I was playing around with colors I die cut loads are different I was really playing around and a lot of this is kind of left over from those cards I've done before but I think I want to do oranges and I brought in the floral fusion paper pack um this is quite an old paper pack it's been going for I think nearly a year actually um it's first edition one by trim craft and it's got a real nice oriental um theme and I just saw the oranges here and I just thought actually I know I've got some really nice um oranges and stuff in here like already that there with the butterfly oh actually if you've got that butterfly die I'm just thinking I could do a butterfly on those flowers yeah don't worry if you can't find it I'm just thinking I could do a little nest or something and do a butterfly maybe just trying to see this is what I do literally what I'm doing now talking to myself kind of thing and playing around with papers is is exactly how I work um we'll be able to see your mother's card oh they what they're asking if they're going to be able to sit this is this is so far this is what she's done so far she's still working on the sentiment and more layering and stuff to it but I think it looks really really cool this is the stamping up um what was that stamp set I've got it as well I can't remember what it was called it's really nice this one here oh yeah um but yeah I think that's I think it's gonna be great really nice okay I can't remember what it's called I'll find that name yeah it was the um yeah it comes to me anyway um okay again see that's really nice maybe not with the orange but certainly with the red I might have to die cut some more red again there so I mean like this paper pack is just made it all sparkle I really like that actually but I could still use a butterfly actually so I think yeah let's go for this and I think I'm just gonna do just a nice plain six by six card and just do a really nice sentiment we do lots of clusters and a big butterfly I think that's gonna look really pretty and we can do that one with sending hugs let me just find a sentiment you can also make a wreath yes well they've got the wreath here and um they are from the the printable pre stamped images so then all you need is that um outline die you can just die cut them straight away um but yeah I think that looks really really pretty like I said there's tons and tons of ideas with this um there it is actually yeah so you've got all here loads of really nice ones here and again anyway you'll see it with a butterfly in the center yeah oh that's lovely so far Margie said lovely card so far mom thank you Lena said oh that's lovely Sam's mom thank you okay right I'm gonna get some red or maybe maybe the orange does work I think I think I can yeah I'm gonna use all of that and I'm gonna use some orange card to frame the back I'm just looking through my pack which you can't see I'm kind of just off screen this is going to be really quite bright and a happy card um that's the true I've got yeah you know I've got the hobby base butterfly I thought you did I'm sure I'm sure that's in my room okay I'll have a look when we get to it so my um maybe you can have a look in a minute it's on the floor I think um with all there's like loads of them all the hobby based ones um okay hello is it prank prank or I can't pronounce it panker pank pank card sorry if I pronounced your name completely wrong but hello um gotta go now Sam but thanks so much really enjoy tonight you're welcome Margie thank you for dropping in what month is that mag it's this month's and it's issue number 174 so this is just going to be a standard open and close card oh but this yeah yeah I thought you did okay that's the that's the um what I'm going to use okay let's get this all cut down I think the mitre uh blade's going on the trimmer a bit there needs to just trim it down a bit yeah no it's fine it's just going to trim it down thank you you're welcome um uh do you yeah nice orange I haven't used orange for quite a while actually but I've got this paper pack and I thought oh yeah I like those colors yeah nice and bright it's just trims a little bit it's just a little bit fluffy on the edges so now that will give me a nice border so thank you for staying tuned I know I've got lots of people dipping in and out so I don't it's new people people popping in a month yeah whilst doing other things so I appreciate it thank you so I wonder what sentiment shall I do for this one actually as well I've already done a sending hugs wow I hope you feel better soon maybe do that one again I've done that one already on the other easel card what do you think best wishes on your special day hello beautiful especially for you that could be a good one let me know what you think but I I'm kind of liking this one or this one one of those two let me know hello beautiful okay thanks a bunch since you have a bunch of flowers yep it's a good one actually Linda let's get this one locked up especially for you that looks wonky is that wonky that looked like that come out really wonky yeah it is look at the top there terrible let's redo that one although it doesn't look wonky there I'm wondering whether it was wonky in the paper pack because I didn't think I'd done it wonky well maybe it's just me no it's all right now my eyes are playing playing games this is kind of the boring bit just doing all this but have the fun in a minute but again in I'm using very little things so you know if you are just starting off you know just buying magazines is is a good way to start and it then will you know there's always lots of coupons and vouchers and inspiration for different sites and you know printable downloads are really good and I'm always raving about the pound shops and the works they're really good for lovely paper packs in fact yesterday have you got that Christmas one yeah there we found a little hidden gem in the pound shop and yeah I don't think you will hang on a minute just stick this down just quickly quickly show you this one this was a pound you get 30 and I found it it almost looked like it had been on the floor but every single page is coated and embossed and they are absolutely gorgeous images so if you've got poundland have a little look because I wonder whether this was returned you get three of each or maybe four of each yeah but they are look at these absolutely beautiful and it was the only pack and I said to mum they're going you have it because I know I'm going to end up getting other packs but aren't they just adorable and I just said that on its own just mat onto a card nice merry Christmas sentiment some sequins and you've got a lovely little card so you don't have to spend loads of money um have to build the base to finish the project wow never find anything like that in our pound shops yeah they are hit or miss aren't they hello beautiful hey Louise how are you honey especially for you okay so we've got you okay well once I've kind of got all the bits together then I'll look back at the sentiment again but I quite like the thought of the thanks a bunch now as well although I'm a bit funny with thanks I like to have thanks so much um or thank you thank you my mum's got a real big thing about thanks and she hates Xmas it's got to be Christmas can't do Xmas yeah can't do Xmas right so again I need three so I'm going to have to do that one do the flowers again um or do I keep the red let me know do I do like maybe that and then there's going to be lots of leaves the sentiment and sequence what do you think red and then the two oranges kind of on top plus I have the greenery in between there let me know so I think actually rather than do another one I'm going to do my leaves you get them done I'm going to go for a different green this time no I'll stick with that one actually I agree with your mum it's got to be Xmas yeah once we've got one to four I'm hooked whilst trying to put the children to sleep watching from Canada hey Linda yes in red we've got we've got where do we have we've got okay I think we've got all point all corners of the planet watching planet earth actually I don't know what okay right let's crack on before I start getting where did I just put the base oh where's my frame oh there it is right so the lightest color you die cut with the full um outer one and then the one here with the detail on is your darker um color right plates maybe squeeze one more on this piece yeah try and get as much out of the card from the Netherlands brilliant oh I've just done that through the wrong one see I'm not concentrating at all because I'm looking up at the comments I'll be a very good teacher remind me again to show you my mum's card when she's finished because I reckon by the time I've done this should be done yes the red yeah I'll keep the red then Linda um I think I'm just gonna stick with five if I do need to add more I'll do that off camera because you don't need to see me cut even more I've got a really fun series going up next week I'm not going to say what it is but um yeah there's some really fun tutorials going up so I hope you like them hey Kathy oh raining Lisa's not snowing anymore hopefully it's although I hope you know you haven't got flooding from all the snow thawing out I'll show the card in a minute to those of you that are just coming in um the twisted easel card I made before this is the second card now that I'm doing and I'll show all the ones from the beginning as well so you get to see them again okay that is all that done now I'm not going to put you through any more of that I'm trying to keep everything tidy as I go because I've got stuff everywhere mum's on the other desk okay right what am I doing right okay so let's get these all taken all the innards out I'm using the layering dies from issue 174 of Simply Papercraft um magazine and these are the layered dies by Altenew and they are gorgeous that all done again this is the butterfly I'm going to die cut as well what color shall I do the butterfly about gold glittery gold butterfly because gold and orange go really well together and there is some sparkle in the papers as well so let me know what you think and I shall rate the scrap draw and see if there's any gold I think there is actually all right just sticking each one down starting from the bottom because it's the easiest and then you can kind of wiggle it about thank you Mandy yeah the butterflies I think it's going to look really cool just going to say the same gold yeah I think that's going to look rather nice the last one like I said if you've got this and you want to work on a big project and have lots of these as I mentioned at the beginning of this you know sit down put a movie on and just die cut lots and lots of pieces and then put it all together because then when you come to actually assemble the cards it's really quick this is the just the fiddly bit there we go they look so good I love those gold would be nice yeah I think gold is what we're going to go for um and that's the stamp the the layers and the die um layered rose die collection this is what we're using here so I'm just going to stick those back on so I don't lose them Marty it's a really die cut machine called the baby blue by tattered lace yeah yeah tattered lace thank you for adding that in for me um so I'm running out to put things into that there right okay let's now write sentiments so what are we going for then what was the overall kind of I'm going to go for especially for you um and I'm going to do I wonder if I can get circles can I borrow the nest of circle dice I'm just thinking I think it'll look nice with circles thank you let's see oh look just just fits and maybe I'll just use right so let's just cut this one out really carefully I love it when something just fits in place just stick that in place that runs through I think it'll fit in this one hopefully it does we're going to have to get just what I do when it just fits like this if it's just going over slightly on one side it will still fit mark with through my machine but what I have to do is just move the turn it around so now I'll just turn it that way trim off the edges here pop it now that way and that should have all cut out you just take that off the washi tape like so okay this is going to be especially for you mounted up on a couple of more layers throw it all together I'm sure it's going to look lovely so I'm not going to use three circle layers I think all I need is two but what would be nice is if I can get that teally color oh I've got it stuck to my hands and get that kind of teal is it teal it's like no aqua it's kind of aqua blue I don't know what color is kind of picking up for you guys um but let me just grab again my pack here and just see what colors I've got how's that one look oh no it's a bit too blue I might not get the right color so I might not bother maybe no that's too light just going to look through the scraps second guys because I just want to see yeah so if you have got some dies and you think oh it's just not going to quite fit just flip them around because the actual width of the this one here is much bigger than the plates so you will get bigger dies through it so it's actually three and three eighths in width but the plates are three so you've got three eighths of an inch there you know extra so yeah you get bigger ones through so yeah sorry guys just quickly looking through do you think that one goes to the background would you not think it's going to look right I'd have a little no no I think I'm going to do oh I don't know whether I do red let me go do red let me do a red circle yeah I'm going to do a red circle okay and a red butterfly then they're all tied together okay so that was that size so let's now do that just fits yeah it's always good when you've got that bit of scrap card and it just fits the die that you want to use so now this one I'm going to have to run through mum do you mind running that through the bigger die machine for me sorry just that one thank you okay so while my mum does that that's going to be matted on top I can do the butterfly on the little machine here so I know this butterfly needs a shim so I'm just going to use wrap piece there yeah that's squeaking that's my mum's bigger machine keep saying we need to put some oil on it I love this die absolutely love it it's such a pretty butterfly and I've used it in so much of my projects so many of my projects and then actually if I just use the thing actually you haven't got your mat of you no it's not done it even with a shim hold on I need to go through again oh yeah thank you so that's now going to go yeah and then they're all going to be yeah that'll look nice okay um now I think it's I'm just going to do it at the end here and I think it'll be fine just do it a couple more times you are really good at cross hello plurie thank you just doing this a few times just to make sure it cuts right through oh yeah I can see they're all coming out now just help it along a little bit so you're on the bigger one these just fall out um but this is an older one I mean my mum's had that maybe two over two years now so you they really do last um and it probably just needs some new plates as well that makes a big difference but I think how much do you pay for that one about 20 was on offer I think yeah 22 pound I think yeah about 22 pound that was on offer in hobby base um like I said it was quite a few years ago but I know they still stock it so just taking you can see all the detail in this die I know I've got that thing there and I just haven't got the mat out but I'll just show you okay is that your card yeah I'll show it oh you haven't done oh you have done the sentiment okay yeah just pop it up there I'll show it in the minute so there you go you can see how detailed that is right so I think I've got everything what you do oh I wonder what you're looking at so we're just looking at um comments and stuff okay I'm easily distracted right so we've got the butterfly we've got that that needs to be stuck down so let's just put a little bit of tape put a little bit through the middle because I'm going to be putting lots of bits around this so I can't believe the time guys doesn't time go fast when you're crafting all right let's stick that one down so now I want to put this on some foam make sure I've got my card open the right way so I'm just going to stick that nicely in the middle so just kind of playing around now and you take the little leaves in as well I thought I had oh I've got five that's okay and this kind of starts breaking up all the other color maybe that'll go down last see how just when you start adding the little leaves it just really brings it together I don't know whether I need three or whether I just keep two and then have a butterfly there what do you think guys I'm not sure whether I need to have that other one as well because I don't know you've always got a kind of keeping kind of groups of three and that butterfly looks really quite cute what do you think I'm just going to tidy some of this away a minute yeah I think that looks really quite sweet as well and I'll add add another leaf up there or something try and put an orange flower with the red flower okay I don't know if that looks a bit heavy now I like it but I think it would have been better on a bigger card maybe if I had a like a five by seven card two orange ones together and butterfly on the top like you just had it yeah I think that red now clashes with the maybe I'll have it a little bit closer to the flower how about that I mean maybe I can do two reds down there so this is why I love card making because when you get to this stage it's so nice just being able to kind of play around how about that that looks really quite nice what do you think of that one um no this one's not for my mum Chloe three with the butterfly on top I think I like this yeah yeah very pretty it's kind of balanced out because you've got two kind of bits going on and then you've got that there I think it seems to look quite good I'm going to go for it I'm going to stick it down okay so if I stick the red red needs to go down first sit now guys I've made up my mind I've committed stuck yes thanks Kathy okay and then I had like so remember now I had it again it was like that wasn't it yeah that's it so then I need to stick most of this orange down on top just stuck the wrong no I haven't did I do the right no I've just stuck the wrong side it doesn't really matter you're not going to see any of that but obviously it won't stick it's that side yeah I'm getting myself completely confused here so what's that one turn the butterfly around as if it is smelling yeah I have he's turned around now I'm loving that butterfly the other way okay so then that one like so it's quite funny seeing it what everybody's saying giving me an idea to do like a blind craft along and just have loads of stuff in front of me and then you guys tell me what to use I think it would be quite a laugh okay that's that end and then let's do this one again because I'm using the wet glue I've got time to kind of lift bits up and you know add to it and stuff so you can't really go wrong when you're working with really pretty things like this it's going to look lovely really no matter which way it is okay so just going to roll the butterfly around between my what's going to do a gold butterfly wasn't I just remembered although I do really like the red what I do is I put some bling on it put some little um demon teeth in between it so I'm going to have it kind of it can't cover the sentiment since it's literally just sitting just on I'm just going to grab a couple of embellishments raiding again my mum's embellishment drawers let's see what we've got in here they're nice because they kind of go they're all silver I don't really want silver there'll be gold pearl the pearly color could be quite nice let me just grab the other drawer I've got one more drawer that does sound fun yeah oh I've got a glittery one here I'm not sure about that one I think I'm gonna stick with one of these because they've got a really it might be hard for you guys to see it in the camera but it's it's all kinds of like oranges yellows and it's almost got green to it as well when they catch the light so I'm going to use a couple of these dotted on the card I'm going to put one right in the center of the butterfly if I can get it there sit it nicely there in the middle it's really quite 3d as well as card now as well which you should see when I lift it up I'm just going to pop a little bit of glue can I use I haven't got I just square a little bit on the end of this just want to pop it underneath just to stick that down there a bit a bit one there and then I'm just going to use these as if they were sequins and just pop a couple they've got like a plastic that runs all the way through I'm just cutting that out because otherwise if you lift up one you lift the whole strip up so I'm just going along just cutting a few off so it makes them easier then you can just kind of tuck under the like the sticky bit on the back so let's put one there just the finishing touches now and then I'll bring all those cards back into let's do one there maybe do another one there yeah there we go I am happy with that so let's just bring this one up a bit closer and you can see now also what would be good I've actually run out I've got another one on order is some wink of stellar if you just brush the wink of stellar over all of these that would really make them pop as well but I'm super pleased with that that was kind of completely done you know off the cuff you guys kind of have contributed a lot to that one so thank you and I'm really pleased with that so I'm just going to pop it in again some cellophane so it's all protected and I will bring in all the others to show you what I've done thank you Nina thank you and the rectangle dies must have sold out in the words oh no really oh I nearly put my butterfly there keep look they always do update there's always new stuff going on um because I'm on there regularly and um I'm sure they come back in but if you also just type in rectangle dies on ebay um you'll probably get them on there as well you will play with my set of dies now can we see the shiny can see the shiny on the paper oh now we can see all right um let's just pop this one back and I'll bring them all in so for those of you that didn't see this one right at the beginning this is the twisted easel card that um I showed at the beginning and then we made it so I'll show the one that we made because I wanted that one to dry before I put it away so that one is oh just grab it oh gosh that was my mum's card I'll show you that one in a minute as well um so this is the one that I made earlier oh that goes the scrap folder again gorgeous but I think I'm going to add some more wink of stella to these when I get them but absolutely love that that's got a real shine to it so again I'm just going to pop that one in and again these ones look lovely when they're closed um where's that go as a spare um see that's how it will be when the person opens it so it looks really nice I'll just bring the others in as well two seconds where did you buy the sleeves these sleeves are from the works you get pack of 45 in each pack for a pound I believe um I always put mine in them because it just protects them straight away and then so yes that was the one we made today along with that one so I'm really pleased with those two thank you guys for helping put those together and then that one this wonderful shaker card which I absolutely love all the fonts are the downloadable fonts um sentiment story from the magazine if you go on the website and I've used the red ones there again it looks lovely that was a love it
