Beautiful!!! Ms. Laura Bassen I'm SO glad to have caught the C&9th Live today. I've heard your crafty superstar friends mention you, but I hadn't seen your videos until this one. So glad you were on the Live so that could remind me to search for your videos. YAY for finding another incredible, gifted cardmaking teacher!!! Thank you for sharing your artistic talent with the masses. Can't wait to view others.

[@XenobiaF]

Delightful cards. 💜

[@debbiebugh8508]

Hibiscus, lowbiscus girl you say it however you want and I’ll listen and watch !! Great colors and wonderful cards!

[@donnaokoniewski3761]

Wow! Wow! And did I say Wow! The Friend Flower Card is Absolutely GORGEOUS! Love, Love, Love! Thank you so much for sharing.

[@Lainers2000]

Laura, it just makes my day to watch a video from you. You are so upbeat. You’re killing me with this die set! The colors are beautiful. I’m sure the suppliers don’t like to hear this, but I made a vow to use what I already have (a lot of it never used) before buying more in 2024, however, I really love the Hibiscus die and the paper packs and my shopping finger is twitching. You did a great job with both cards.

[@laurieblack9949]

Gorgeous floral card! Inking the diecuts enhance them beautifully.

[@pamelafernandes480]

Great cards. I could create with flowers ALL DAY LONG 💜

[@barbborja1910]

I love both of your beautiful, vibrant cards. Your color choices are perfection.

[@moirahansen1955]

Thank you Laura. Two beautiful cards with gorgeous colours. Especially like the geometric one. 👏😊💕

[@joymeadows3646]

The addition of the grit paste and the vellum die cut under the sentiment made the grid card exceptional, Laura! The hibiscus card is also very beautiful!

[@julidetlefsen5885]

Altenew knocked this out of the park and you picked it up and took it to another level. Beautiful! Love this die set. Your upbeat videos make me smile. Keep doing what you do and bringing inspiration to all of us crafty peeps.

[@juliegauchay4219]

Gorgeous, vibrant cards, Laura, as usual! I love that geometric stencil!

[@sassafrasinspired2029]

Love the rich and vibrant colors. Your cards are so uplifting!

[@kathybabbitt7799]

[@Via_Von]

Laura, these cards are awesome! Both spark so much colour that its pure eyecandy!! I LOVE that you used the Snowfall Grit Paste on the geometric designed card -- perfect!!! Thank you for the fun today!!😍❤🤗

[@CardsbyMaaike]

very nice Laura, love the stencils and in the 70's there was this wall art with texture or dimension, so seems perfect to me

[@maryjomoderegger657]

Always love your cards and sense of humor!! Hope you get some great fries and chocolate for Valentine’s Day!!

[@SueMcRae]

Fabulous colorful and cheery cards!

[@sarahmiller6183]

I always love your videos. You are such a delight. Also, your cards are lovely. Altenew is such a fantastic company.

[@andrewandberthapilgrim999]

Beautiful and bright! I love these two cards. And that’s genius, adding the grit paste to keep the card light and bright.

[@AndreMmmm]

Cards are gorgeous, love the addition of the leaves against the bold stenciled background

[@pollardnx]

Laura, the hibiscus flower card is my favorite! So colorful!

[@carriesheridan7643]

“There’s no hibiscus police”🤣Love your humor so much I subscribed to your channel! And I’m confident there are no enamel dot police, so you just go right on living your best enamel dot life with groups of two! Great cards! And we say “ha”biscus in my neck of the woods, too (Michigan).

[@susankimpling9415]

Awesome colors and cards. The geometric design reminds me of my little girl quilt. 💜

[@icardeveryone01]

Absolutely stunning Hibiscus, Laura! I totally thought of you when I saw this stencil! BTW - since you asked... I'm ALWAYS up for a good steak on special days - like Valentine's Day!

[@patnorris3045]

You always make it look so effortless, Laura. Great cards!

[@megs1768]

These are both gorgeous! I LOVE the bright colors and flowers!

[@lindam8528]

Nice job Laura! I especially like the look of the dark blue blended on purple cardstock! This is a beautiful release! 💜

[@angelalittlewood3039]

I just love this flower. It is so realistic and with the keyhole guide, so easy to put together.

Hello Laura. Just Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing 💕

[@kathymanna2466]

Hi Laura. As always, the Geometric in you is calling the Geometric in me. 😊 Love love love your work!

[@cathylaycock5598]

Beautiful! Re: Valentines…I normally don’t celebrate it outside of the sweets. This year though, I decided to leave my tree up. I took off all the Christmas baubles, and am going to put a few hearts etc on it. A lot of stress happening so I need to see cheerful colors! Dollar store decorations dirt cheap. As always, love your cards! 😊❤️🇨🇦

[@wendihaikugrl2651]

Oh!! So pretty! It is fun to watch you create! Always upbeat & creative!! TYFS!! 💜

[@dianepfile7966]

Love the cards and vibrant colors on the hibiscus flower. The layering system of the Altenew pattern is new to me. Love both cards.💜

[@maribethhuddleston8345]

Wow I love your colors Laura, and the ok rule of 2 and not always in groups of three.

[@TheResearchMom]

I always look forward to your gorgeous cards and your commentary. You are not just incredibly talented, but also you make your viewers feel like you’re the friend they can sit down and craft with. Thank you! Oh - love love love hibiscus. Gorgeous flowers.

[@pambotter355]

[@nicolalederer9517]

I love the Hibiscus! But the stencil is so very Laura! Love what you did with it.

[@dstrick12]

Your cards are so pretty! Love how you added ink to the die cuts. I think it’s great that Altenew has coded the items! WOW! These are on my wishlist.

[@barbarahill6365]

Your cat is a pistol, the flower part. Is a pistil-I believe! You always are fun! Beautiful!

[@charlenekroells5326]

beautiful cards and so easy. Thank you for sharing.

[@annmariesharratt3885]

I knew you would love the Modern Circles Builder Stencil Set, Laura! Right up your alley. Beautiful cards, and I need to get some of the gradient cardstock; it makes adding a gradient to die cuts easy!

[@denisebryant3376]

These are so beautiful! Love the gorgeous hibiscus flowers and the inked details! Great design and colors for your second card too!

[@UnikByLizO]

Love this colorful duo Laura. I love the Pinkalicious and Lemonade Stand blending! I will have to try the Grit paste, it looks like the glass glitter paste from Faber-Castell without the shimmer. Thanks for sharing!

[@julgomesbus]

I love the beautiful color combinations that you used on both cards. ❤

[@krissmitchell1731]

the keyhole system is so clever! Both cards are fabulous. Thanks for sharing!

[@katherinehomola7497]

I like the texture just randomly put in there! Wonderful cards and ideas! 💜

[@barbiejobonnett7473]

Hi Laura, I know geometrics are your jam, but the flowers are gorgeous. Love the way the keyholes line up for easier layering.

[@SuperCarrie82]

Beautiful cards! I love the Hibiskus police 😂 just knew the shadow police so far.

[@npatriciacastillo6671]

These are great! And I love the idea of adding some shading while the die cuts are adhered temporarily. Beautiful!

[@MsTamp-qn4xw]

Great look at the sets and color blend for the layers.

[@kerrywatson834]

I always love your color combinations! Gorgeous!

[@mary-annevenginickal5345]

These are absolutely gorgeous, love the colours! And that vellum is a lonely touch. Thank you so much for the inspiration. ❤️

[@scastillo8296]

You are hilarious! I love listening to you. 😂 love your work too! ❤

[@love2create62]

Your videos always make me happy, you are such a joy to watch, and you make me laugh! I love your cards, you did some lovely ink blending! 💜

[@annekeschep8148]

First time I watched you, subscribed of course!! Lovely cards, both hibiscus (great effect with the bit of ink on the petals) and the stenciled card. I agree with you about the stencils; this set is amazing! I love what you did with the colors and then used paste. Unexpected but great effect. Thanks for sharing👍

[@ann-marieo.5359]

Gorgeous cards! I love how you used the blue on the flower, chef’s kiss 😊

[@meredithsmith2933]

Gorgeous cards! I grew up saying Hibiscus the same way you did, lol! I was in Colorado. I love your ink blending! So pretty! The stencils look fun!💜

[@Cindy-zb2me]

Love both of your cards. Thank you for the reminder to use vellum on a card - I always forget about vellum!

[@tinakwitkoski7513]

So pretty. Love Hibiscus flowers 🌺

[@scrapablemoments]

Honestly I didn't think I would like that stencil that much when I saw it but I love what you did with it. The colour combo was great and I like the vellum leaf on top. 💜

[@orenbyrd]

You just brightened my crafty mood with your color choices! It looks amazing. Those Hi!-bicus😊 are stunning! Love them! Can you have too many altered products... I think not!😂

[@suecooley4672]

Beautiful cards! I love what you did with the stencil card.

[@blessedbeeandme]

Now this I have to try. I love the key hole aspect. I fuss way to much with lining things up . This will decrease my craft stress. 💜

[@karlachristner8309]

I love your banter. You make it look so easy!!

[@kellywentling4549]

Beautiful cards Laura! I really love the idea of the keyhole system, so clever and a great time saver! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@BerinaRGA]

Beautiful cards ❤ love the hibiscus ❤

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Your blending is lovely, such pretty cards. We don't do anything for most holidays, we kinda just live like every day is a holiday (sappy right?) 💜

[@gailoleary968]

You are a fun lady! And I love your cards.

I love the hibiscus 🌺 card! Just beautiful.

[@janbauch7714]

Love all the colours Laura, you rocked both cards!

[@lindailey2225]

You got the right parts for your flower. I learned all the parts of the flower in botany classes in high school and college. The stamen and pistol are needed for pollination.
