I love your ideas for the large stamp! Especially the one layer option on your second card. Perfect! 😍

[@IshaniScards]

Yay, am glad you liked them. Thank you soo much for watching Sarah 🥰

[@christiedecker2724]

Embossing the flowers on card stock is a great idea. I like how you popped up the flower card with the pink and green...this, I can do! The stamped frame is excellent too. Thank you! They are all ideas I can use...now, to remember them all, lol. Blessings.

[@IshaniScards]

Hahaha, to remember them, yes, that's where I struggle too Christie :P But recently I have started maintaining a journal for writing down techniques - classified under broader catergories like - watercolor, background ideas, embossing ideas - and write about it, where I saw the idea, where I pinned it on my pinterest and add a sketch along. That has made me use my supplies a little differently than I usually would. I am so glad you stopped by :)

[@christiedecker2724]

@@IshaniScards Thank you. I am glad I stopped by too. Great ideas about the broad categories as well. Blessings!

[@IshaniScards]

[@annekeschep8148]

Intimidated by the large flower stamp? I am, but you made gorgeous cards! Especially the idea to use just a part to make a border around the cardstock is brilliant. Yes, I don’t like making sympathy cards, especially when I need them. So I like to keep a few in my stash. Yours was very beautiful! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial 👍

[@candyadams-frazier1759]

I loved the black and white card. I’m still trying to figure out the big flower card; not sure if I like it. The floral border card was a bit dark for such an occasion as an anniversary. Like the idea but not the colors. You are a good teacher. I learned a lot from this video. Thank you.

[@IshaniScards]

Thank you Candy. I am glad you thought I was a good teacher. May be I should share a little about the two cards, you mentioned. The big flower card is just an example of how you could only use one flower from the cluster of flowers to stretch your stamp. I being from India we are all about scarlets and shades of reds ( read LOUD :P ) for such occasion. So I can understand that it must be too loud for someone not from South Asia who prefer quiet, elegant events where whites and pastels rule the day, like weddings and anniversaries. You tube and other social media have made me more aware of how colors are perceived in different cultures and am glad we can learn more about the world through these media. Sending love from sunny India

Do you really check if I'm subscribed and liked the video? How do you do that, especially the latter?

[@yvonnetomenga5726]

@Ishani S • All of the cards were nice but I'm afraid I missed a lot of your techniques because I had to turn the volume down at 4 minutes and 30 seconds in. The clicking sound became so annoying my muscles started twitching. I had to choose between watching without sound or giving up on the video. This and most of my videos I have to watch when I am in transit or waiting in line which means there is always a lot of ambient noise I have to contend with. It also means audio quality is very important to me. Since you are a soft-spoken person, I hope you will refrain from adding any additional audio so your voice can be the star. All your designs looked good so I hope in future videos, I'll be able to hear how you make them.

[@IshaniScards]

Hello Yvonne, I am sorry about the problem you faced but this is such a good feedback! I add music because I think my English has an accent and people don't like to hear such. So the music camouflages my accent and also my wrong words, but with your feedback I am thinking the music is a nuisance! Either I should look for a softer music without any beats or just not use music. But am glad you told me, else I won't have known that it was an issue. The videos are for you, I will definitely keep you in my mind when editing the next one. Thank you soo much for taking time out and helping me get better and am glad you didn't give up on the video. 🤗❤️
