Very good video 👏 I like the reminder of these fold cards. Beautiful inking too. And I recognise what I have with filming too. You want to give a tip, and when filming, you forget to do it properly, make mistakes and then show what you did wrong, so others can learn from it 😅👍🏻 But in the mean time you think, eeeeeeh can I live with the result?

[@ardyth]

LOL! You got it! Thanks so much for watching!

[@mrsmcphate]

These are all such great ideas! As someone else mentioned, thanks for leaving the mistakes in. Seeing them helps us to remember much better than if you had just talked about it..."what could happen if...." I love all of them so much. The rainbow stencil tree is so unique! Thanks again for sharing!

Dear Ardyth Thank you so much. I hv to make a Birthday card for my one and only grand daughter. I am confined to bed with a fractured leg and I had to undergo two operations due to the first doctor messing it. I still cannot put weight on that leg. Therefore making a complicated card is out of the question. Love and hugs from Sri Lanka ❤

Oh goodness! That sounds like you've been through a lot - I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure your grand daughter will love the card you make her! Thanks for watching!

These are so creative. I've made the z-fold before and added some family pictures on the inside panels. Photos printed at home, cut about 3×4 maybe, depends on size of card, they fit perfect on the inside panels. Gives me inspiration on using stencils I have but haven't used in a while. Love the Christmas tree one at the end. Also... the ink pad technique!! Best tip. My blending never looks right, but the ink pad on cardstock tip...i can do that :)

[@ardyth]

What a great idea to add family photos! Thanks so much for watching!
