A card to remind someone it's okay to not be okay ❤️

[@mpbailey18]

A lovely uplifting card! We definitely need more realistic sentiments for those with serious illnesses & for those who are caretakers of someone with a serious illness. Many of those with serious illnesses are not going to get better...so hard to know what to say, besides "thinking of you". On the caretaker side, this is the hardest job of all and they do tend to get forgotten. These are the people who really need a "take care of you", "be kind to yourself", etc. type of card. These are always such hard cards to do...but greatly appreciated!

Whom ever is the recipient of this card, will be a very lucky person. Love this❤

[@jeannewagner8133]

The sentiments on that sheet is so good. This card is so simply beautiful and says just the right thing.

[@shortiewright4159]

This sentiment says it all. The last few years have been so hard for so many, and continues. This stamp set can be used for so many reasons. The card is simple, yet so very beautiful. You made a beautiful card, Cathy. Thank you for sharing.

[@connieleone7265]

Beautiful card, Cathy! And a great sentiment too! I think it is very fitting in these times that we are all living in. Thank you!

[@Teresa-Q]

[@LisaVornhagen]

[@fionascott4887]

[@czdesign]

It's so true. We all need a bit of grace these days.

[@barbaral6431]

Great idea about the die hairs and how to remove them. Love this card and all the hints and instructions you shared!

[@monicabeeman5565]

This is such a stunning card. I Love that background, love the posy and the double velum is beautiful! I never would have thought of that. Thank you for sharing. I get such joy out of watching you create. Thank you.

[@sonjah1983]

Gorgeous card Cathy! Thanks for the reminder to use our velum for sentiments. Love how your card turned out!!

[@dianagebo7910]

I so identify with this card because it has been hard for me lately. Needed one of your videos to make me smile. Thank you so much!

[@czdesign]

Hang in there.

[@LisaScraps1]

Wonderful card! Watching this video was like receiving a warm creative hug!

[@vickidavis4207]

Such a great video! Love the stamp, card and especially the pretty vellum sentiment. I agree that is ok not to be okay. 💖

[@simeenbatra6882]

Love how peaceful this card looks!

[@debbiewaksmonski4100]

Beautiful card, with a beautiful sentiment. Lovely

[@baboo7192]

This is a lovely card! The soft blending colors and the words on vellum are perfect!❤❤❤

[@bethgintx]

Love the card and all those sayings are just perfect. For vellum, you might try using double sided tape or sheets THEN cut the sentiments. It fills the whole back and won’t show. I also use my xyron for this. Another trick is to make stamp the sentiment on a strip of vellum and tuck the ends on the back of the panel. I love the look of embossed sentiments on vellum.

[@lisaruland9311]

I love watching you work! You are so talented and an inspiration to this newbie! Thank you so much for sharing your talent!

[@pollyweinmann5082]

I cannot thank you enough for the tip to put my big shot switch machine on the design board! It certainly has made things easier for my old achy hands.

[@czdesign]

It fits??

[@pollyweinmann5082]

@@czdesign yes, rather nicely

[@shannonmabee739]

Wow, Cathy! Such a simple card with such a beautiful design and such an impactful sentiment! Your creativity knows no bounds! Thank-you for the inspiration!

[@Gloria_Davis]

[@Jan-dm7wj]

Love this. Clean and simple.

[@barbrule4142]

Beautiful card Kathy! Those simple but beautiful cards are awesome!

[@743linda]

Lovely card❤. The sentiment is perfect.

[@RamoArt]

Your videos are just so much fun to watch. I love your methodical approach to everything. When I saw the thumbnail I knew you didn't just paint that rainbow with a brush because that's not CZ at all. Beautiful card, as always!

[@czdesign]

Glad you like them!

[@JanelleReed-k8t]

A great card for a great cause.❤

[@marieroecker9590]

Less is simple and simple is best. Love it! ♥️

[@CraftyKiwiMama]

So pretty and such a cool effect as the lovely background for the diecut feature xoxo

[@taniajhungary]

I just needed that sentiment today. Thank you lovely Cathy

[@bucsr.6106]

That is the best sentiment I've seen in a very long time. "You don't have to be okay today". So loving and so accepting.

[@czdesign]

Agree!

[@longlivedemocracy756]

Lovely delicate card.😍

[@barbw8972]

So pretty! Also boop boop boop!

[@Indiartworks]

This is exactly the sentiment I needed to hear.... I know it's kind of an odd comment, but I'm taking it as if I'm receiving the card myself... LOL! As always, it is a beautiful card Cathy! I love the background and the technique of using the same shape instead of just using the stencil " as intended."

[@czdesign]

I think many of us could use that reminder often!

[@cindyrobinson2199]

I should make this card for myself. Its been that kind of week and I keep telling myself to just get over it.

[@czdesign]

Wishing you a good day!

[@pats7276]

Great card!! Must have sentiments!! Thank you for sharing so I can continue to spend my money. Can't take it with me. 🤷‍♀️

[@kymlewis4095]

Love it..❤

[@mjngltn]

Beautiful card, simple, elegant. What are you using on your magnet? I've used washi and painters tape and they all tear.

[@czdesign]

Okay, that is a tape from Taylored Expressions! I think I forgot to link it: Pickup Stickers (for bar magnets) --- ldli.co/e/yeg7z0x

[@Gidget3922]

So pretty, Cathy

[@jillbaskett9925]

Love this card! And pretty nails 🙂

[@Gramma2008x4]

Beautiful card as usual!! It would have been easier to put the glue on the die cut where the sentiment was going.😃

[@czdesign]

Good point!

[@rebeccahenson5328]

No boops? Damn it! Oops. Nice card though. Who don’t like rainbows? I love your simple cards. They don’t look like it only took a few minutes to make them. They are always beautiful. I can see the true artist in you. You done it again girl! Ineeeeeed my boops though. DT’s are a comin’

[@cherylpeters59]

Card is real pretty. I use xyron create a sticker for my velum and you never see it. Just thought I'd give you that tip.

[@czdesign]

I have one somewhere! I should find it!

[@junoscreations4242]

I am imagine that you made this one for me😜 you use my favourite colours spring and cheeky🤷🏻‍♀️ love the sentiments and it is so true! Please don’t forget to send this one out for someone who needs it, I only needed the video💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 thank you so much for all you do!

[@czdesign]

Thanks, Nicky! Hope you're feeling better every day!

[@peggydavis9475]

How do you keep from burning your paper?❤

[@czdesign]

I move the heat tool constantly, but i have never burned paper yet!

[@corinarazo1404]

@Cathy Zielske a double feature day. Sadly, I'll have to catch the late show.

[@vinnyoz4709]

What a beautiful card! Im dealing with really bad chronic illness/pain flare ups today and this video came at the perfect time 🥺

[@czdesign]

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. Hope you can rest today.

[@barbarafender7046]

Does the brush come with the powder or do you have to buy it separately?

[@czdesign]

It should come with the package of powder!

[@Thecathairsfree]

Hi did I miss the live?

[@czdesign]

Yes, sorry!

[@lorimoshier4431]

I call the “die hairs” hanging chads.

[@czdesign]

Ha! Love it!
