Fabulous card techniques! But honestly, you could be reading the phone book aloud and I’d be mesmerized by the sound of your voice. Beautiful.

Thanks so much Kristin, I agree, she is a total cutie!

[@carolpickford4588]

Oh Buoy found you today and so glad I have. Love all the cards and watching you use the different techniques and learning from you. Hard to choose one as a favourite but I bet you've already guess the one I've gone for. Ship ahoy don't forget the buoys. Thank you xx

[@lostinpaper]

Haha you totally made me laugh out loud, oh buoy 🤣! So glad you are here Carol, a BIG Welcome to you!

[@noran.7376]

Such cute cards. I LOVE the life saver card. GENIUS way to make that out of circle dies.

Been card making for decades. How have I never seen or thought of doing #8? Beautiful cards!

Yay, so glad to surprise you with a new word die technique, though it sounds like you could easily teach me a ton of stuff that I don't know!

[@MsShanarun]

I like them all! I especially like the rabbit balancing the dot on his nose.🥰

[@lostinpaper]

Yay! Thank you x

[@IRC1026]

Is it silly to say that watching you make your cards gives me great joy and inspiration! I loved the little girl sitting on the HELLO. Love your idea of cutting bigger than you need and then trimming because it IS really annoying to cut something too short. Hope you're having fun camping.

[@lostinpaper]

Thank you so much, Rachel we head off in a couple of days, currently packing and getting ready!

[@jean1426]

Watching your videos is so relaxing and inspiring! You make everything look so easy. The circle die cut, turned into a buoy is amazing! I love all of these!

I have this thing about creating my own images with 'basic shapes' at the moment lol. Glad you enjoyed these Jean!

[@kirriesummers5219]

Every card gave me plans for makes. I love the life saver animals, bear and rabbit and the fishhook which all read as critters to me. My favourite is the big hello and the darling little girl with her huge watermelon slice. I know I'm meant to be checking out the sentiments and I love the tone on tone. Still; that wee girl won my heart. I hope I can obtain that set. ❤️🇨🇦❤️

[@lostinpaper]

Yes, I agree it's easy to get distracted by cuteness and she is adorable, the whole set is. It's still available from Penny Black Inc. ( I think I linked to it), it's called Yummy and there are 3 little kids sitting on the bench, I just used the girl today. Glad you enjoyed the techniques, thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely comment. Crafty hugs Therese

That large hello die was great! Another thing I recently tried was using washi tape on word dies. Put it on the paper then die cut and it presses that right together beautifully! I need to do that a lot more and use all that tape I bought!

[@lostinpaper]

I agree, though, I could make 1000 washi tape cards and possibly still have some to spare 😉

Over the top again Therese. Love your colour choices. I have to tell myself I can’t use turquoises and teals or pinks. I seem to reach for them far too often but that’s because I love them. I love these cards and I don’t like cut stripes of cardstock but you do it so well. You are just amazing.
