Your cards are great & the embossed water coloured background is stunning. You have a great eye for design ❤

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@forflower]

I really enjoy watching your card making process. Love this video and especially enjoyed watching you color the embossing folder. In fact, I’m rewatching just that part. So pleasant!!!

[@ZsokaMarko]

Awww so happy you like it! Thank you so much! 😊

[@d.jackson279]

I love these cards! You are so good with your design and color combinations. You always inspire and I look forward to your Spellbinder kit videos each month.

[@ZsokaMarko]

Awww I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you! X

[@KathySparkle1]

All the colors are gorgeous! The white gel pen really showed the dimension on the mushroom caps-they jumped off the panel.

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@joanndelahunty]

You nailed the Club cards again, Zsoka! You did a brilliant job on the 3D EF…. You’ve sent me searching for my water colours! Thanks for sharing & inspiring us!

[@ZsokaMarko]

Ha! I'm so happy I could inspire you to get them out! X

[@Birds1953]

Beautiful! I especially love the embossed mushrooms.Your coloring brought such depth and dimension ❤

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! Glad you like them! X

[@danasandberg6619]

oh my gosh I literally just signed up for the monthly large die, small die, and embossing folder monthly, I just found you're channel so I'm super excited to get my stuff, thank you for all you're awesome samples! I'm binge watching you're videos right now lol, can't click off lol......

[@f.joclemmons5799]

I think your coloring is beautiful. The mushroom panel is fantastic. You always do a perfect job while you inspire others.

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! That embossing folder is super pretty! 😊

[@aliciakey9333]

It's beautiful! Don't be so hard on yourself! You do AWESOME work!

Thank you so much 😊

[@coribailey9719]

I wasn’t interested in this kit at all until I saw your video. Absolutely love what you did with it. TFS

[@ZsokaMarko]

How?! I thought it was such a great kit LOL! Well I'm happy I could change your mind :)

[@cantwait_2plan]

Beautiful cards, Zsoka! I just stumbled upon your video, love your style and therefore I promptly subscribed to your channel. Thanks so much for all the inspirations. By the way, what brand of thin foam tape roll did you use and where did you get it from? I’m in the market to get something like that for some of my decoupaging (not sure if that’s even a word)? Hugs, Rosalie 😍

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! Sorry about the late answer, I'm so behind on comments unfortunately :( The foam tapes I have I buy at a local office supply store in Germany, it's their own brand. So I'd check those types of stores if I were you, or Amazon? I only tried decoupage like 25 years ago, but I never used foam tape with that technique? So I'm not sure what product to recommend! There's also thin foam sheets, I think from Crafter's Companion. Hope this helps! X

[@cherylwells1266]

Simply gorgeous !!! I especially love the watercolor embossing folder - beautiful coloring - thank you for sharing!!

You're too kind! Thank you so much! 😊

[@bonniem3567]

Your mushroom harvest 3d embossing folder colors are what make me want that folder. Your coloring is fantastic but I don’t know that I could accomplish such magnificent colors so im nervous to get it lol. Thanks for the video, enjoyed watching. =]

[@ZsokaMarko]

I promise I have 0 skills! All the credit goes to the ZIG Clean Color Real Brushes! They are so saturated. You also don’t need to add water if you don’t want. It really is easy. It does take time and patience but that’s all. You can try it on any embossing folders you already have! Happy crafting ❤️

[@teresasanner-fecto3690]

Oh wow...I love all three cards so much! You're wonderful! You are right...I always say, getting old isn't for sissies!

[@ZsokaMarko]

Isn't that the truth?! Ahhh

[@elsmikolajczyk1413]

Your cards are absolutely beautiful. I just love the one with the embossingfolder, it's stunning❤!

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! X

[@noreenhennessy9299]

Lol…what all the beautiful paper that I hoard…I find myself using packaging because they’re to pretty to recycle

[@ZsokaMarko]

haha! I totally get it! But this is recycling too or? Upcycling? :D I'm happy when pretty papers get a new life!

[@andrewandberthapilgrim999]

Lovely cards! The colour scheme is great and the watercoloured card turned out beautifully! Thanks Zsoka.

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@nancydelarocha5835]

I love the card and the colors you chose. Very pretty! I love fall colors, October is my birthday month there for fall colors are some of my favorite. 😂although blue is my favorite color. Your cards are always beautiful! 😍 They are so inspiring! Makes me want to make. Thank you!

[@ZsokaMarko]

It's funny, my birthday month is also my favorite month (May)! Thanks so much! X

Wonderful cards and inspiration, they are beautiful! I wear the strogest contacts they make and glasses on top for close up work, I understand.

[@ZsokaMarko]

Oh wow, that never even crossed my mind! I definitely shouldn't complain! X

[@barbarawhite2245]

Gorgeous cards. I love the watercolor mushroom panel. I too have the zigs and don’t use them but you just inspired me. I had to laugh when you said aging is not a joke. I feel you you my crafty friend. When I get done crafting my neck, shoulders and eyes are sore. 😂

[@ZsokaMarko]

I have a huge buffalo hump :( And I didn't even notice it before it was huge. Crafting is not good for my body - only for my mind :D

[@pathamm5834]

Zsoka ….you just amaze me all the time with your eye for colors. These turned out so neat and stunning. As we age our close-up vision demises and if you worked with computers ( as I did as a pharmacy tech ) computers really kills our vision faster

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊 Yes definitely! When I started working with computers 25 years ago, my eyes were -2, now -6ish. :( But my close-up vision really worries me...

[@Polly78249]

Thank you for your video! I didn't know how all the pieces went together to make the flowers. Your video really shows how to use the pieces. I appreciate that.

[@ZsokaMarko]

So glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching! X

[@sandrashaw8343]

These cards are stunning Zsoka. I was so looking forward to seeing your cards. What a great idea using the package, I struggle to throw away beautiful packaging but have never thought about dieing from it. I will in future.🤣 I agree that you should do what you like and what speaks to you, that is what is important. I hope you had a lovely break and was able to rest! X

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊 This was also my first time die cutting packaging I think :D It was just the perfect thickness.

[@2CraftySeniors]

🥰Love those boots... and the flower card is perfect! The one you painted was gorgeous as well. 😍Using packaging for some of your cut pieces was brilliant. I have to remember to watch for things like that so I can use them. ☺That last card... the one that you embossed and then added the yellow (and discarded)... I liked the look of that one. It was really unique. I think if you'd done a bit of colouring on the mushrooms and leaves, it would have looked fabulous. 🤩

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much 😊 I haven't actually discarded it just yet, I just haven't had time to color two panels, so that one is set aside for now. But yeah, I don't like the splotchy look. If it was fully covered with ink, I'd love it! X

[@ЛідіяГошовська-й5о]

Your cards are incredible! I saw one of yours videos, where you do watercoloring on the embossed panel and fell in love with it! And I also emboss the panel one more time after paint is dry) Thank you fore the inspiration!

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much 😊 I haven't tried that yet (not that I remember anyway! Definitely not with the 3D embossing folders). I haven't noticed any change in dimension/sharpness etc after painting? X

[@BerniBernsify]

Gorgeous makes with this months clubs. Love that you colored the embossing folder! That folder is so unique! Yeah for highly detailed things, I do the same for my eyesight too! No glasses and hold it close. Better than seeing details thru readers

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊

I am right there with you Zsoka -- aging is no joke! (said by a 40-something who feels a whole lot older)

Your cards are always fabulous! All three are incredible, I really like the size of these, what are the measurements?

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! The measurements of what? The cards are 3.5x6.5" so you'll have to kind of imagine the sizes based on that. Random thought, the Barcelona chair is my most favorite designer furniture there is! :) I've been to the Barcelona Pavilion several times. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was truly a genius! X

OMGosh, Zsoka ! You totally short sell yourself in the colouring skills. Like, the mushroom stenciled and watercolour card is beyond beautiful !! I haven't pulled out my Zig pens for eons, but now I might even give it a go. Like you, my eyes are not always co-operating, LOL! I have these big lights that give off too much heat, then I get totally cooking, ha! For sure, ageing is a privilege but also a real pill, ha! LOVED the boots too! 💛🧡💚

[@ZsokaMarko]

Thank you so much! 😊 You're right, I should think of it as privilege! I need to look at the positive more often... I swear the ZIGs are fool proof, I mean, I really have no idea what I'm doing :D I just add color to the left and blend it out to the right, that's all my coloring skills :D

[@SuzPicard]

I loved the colors you used. I think the watercolor came out beautifully. I had to laugh a bit because when you talked about holding the work close to your face versus using your eyewear… I do the exact same thing people who don’t wear glasses don’t seem to understand why 😊

[@ZsokaMarko]

Are there even people who need no glasses these days?! Haha! I remember when I was a kid, it was rare that a kid had glasses, I feel like these days there's so many more? I blame computers :( In fact my kid's eye doctor told him that he would need to spend 2 hours outside every day - but I honestly have no idea how to realistically incorporate that into a 15 year-old's daily routine. :(

[@f.joclemmons5799]

I’ll be 72 on the 24th. I had noticed for a while that my eyes were getting worse. I got to the point where I could see better with trifocals than I could with my contacts. But I didn’t realize how bad my eyes were until I went to go renew my license I could not pass the eye test! This was during the pandemic, and it took forever before I could get an appointment. because my doctor was only seeing one to two patients a day and they were booked solid. I did need cataract surgery but you’re too young for that. The funniest thing about the whole issue was I couldn’t renew my license, but they didn’t say I couldn’t drive home! Crazy world.

[@ZsokaMarko]

I'm 45 :) My eyes are -5/-6 plus now there's something I need for seeing up close too. Basically multifocal. I haven't heard of trifocal yet! I haven't been able to wear contacts for years, only to run errands or so, but definitely not for long hours and I could only see in the distance with them. Glasses were OK but then the last couple of years I noticed I couldn't see up close with glasses either. Now I have multifocal glasses and contacts as well, but when I paint sth that detailed, I remove my glasses and literally go up close. Like 4 inches close :D God I'm so worried. I'm such a detail oriented person, I'm freaking out that I can't see details anymore. It's so hard when my brain feels so young but my body doesn't want to cooperate! I'm sure you feel the same way, I bet this never changes with age :( In Germany licences didn't expire before - I think I heard that they are changing that now - but I've had the same license ever since I moved here 18 years ago, and it has no validity date on it. This was always so strange for me because I do believe there should be checks for sure. Not everyone should have a licence. For example, I keep hearing warnings on the radio that there's a driver here and there on the motorway driving in the wrong direction. I literally don't even know how they manage to get on the motorway the wrong way :D Sending you hugs! X

[@f.joclemmons5799]

It’s like you have to sacrifice one thing to keep another thing! I see really great in the distance since my cataract surgery but I’m having a hard time seeing close-up. I wear reading glasses like right now because I can’t get a focused read on what I’m doing. I enjoyed reading your reply though. I knew I was having trouble seeing, but it was kind of scary when I looked in the monitor and it was just a blank black screen and shoot, anyway I wish you well.

[@ZsokaMarko]

@@f.joclemmons5799 I can’t see anything in the distance! Only colors and big blurs 😢 Sometimes I think about surgery but it also terrifies me. Oh well. It is what it is. Hugs 😘

[@f.joclemmons5799]

@@ZsokaMarko my brother who is 74 had Lasix surgery probably 20/25 and did great. I had no problems. I’m very happy with the results. He and my sister-in-law both just recently had cataract surgery and did really really great. Just be sure your doctor has had a lot of experience. I went shopping after my first surgery and lunch with my daughter! I didn’t feel anything, but I was awake. Every step the doctor took, he explain to me what he was doing, I’m telling you it was a breeze! But, I think you’re still too young for cataract. Zsoka, you don’t need to reply to my comments! I just want you to know that you are appreciated for your artistic abilities. Take care.

[@ZsokaMarko]

@@f.joclemmons5799 but I like to answer 😂 What do you mean by 20/25 (in your brother’s case)? I believe there’s newer technology than Lasix but it’s more expensive. I’d have to book an appointment to even confirm I can have surgery - not everyone can. But then I just spent thousands of euros on new glasses and contacts, maybe I should wait haha! My grandma had cataract surgery in her seventies, almost 30 years ago, I’m sure technology was much different then. My mom is now 76, she hasn’t needed one yet. I guess I’ll have to look into options 😩 Have a beautiful day! ❤️🥰
