Hi Kristina, I have my favorite people who share their work on KZbin and you're right at the top. There is something about you that makes you so easy to listen to, as though I'm sitting at a table with you watching you in person. You're just easy-listening. :) And so very talented in so many ways. I like to hear you laugh when you goof up and get tickled at it, then show us how you remedied it to save it. You are so unpretentious and you have an air of gentle peace about you, at least when you're showing us your videos. No, I don't have a crush on you--I am a grandmother and just wanted to let you know how you affect me. I know others feel the same about you. You are more than just a voice and a couple of hands on the screen--You come across as a real person we can enjoy.

[@kwernerdesign]

What a sweet comment. Thank you so much! :)

[@rDinx]

I definitely over think my card designs, I love the way you showed two different cards using the same products, sometimes we need quick cards and these are perfect.

[@xonetra]

these cards both came out very nice. I love all the steps you take to make a simple yet intriguing design.

[@scrappyLiz1]

Love this the way you marked the bottom of the letters where they would be through the stencil piece. Also love the colors

[@FrancesErickson]

I always get so much wonderful inspiration from all of your videos. You are definitely one of my go to people when I think of great crafters. Thank you so very much for working so hard to bring us these great ideas.

[@marygillmarten6758]

Kristina, I also like the idea of keeping the die letters on the tape if you are making more than one card -- it only takes a little bit of being careful to do that -- thanks for mentioning it!

[@Necee75]

HOWDY FROM TEXAS! This is my 1st MFT purchase. I purchased this die over my Thanksgiving (2015) Break. This video has given me MANY ideas(lol..that's nothing new!) Fab work Kristina! TFS

[@grams5580461]

[@pattiepan]

Kristina these are both really handsome cards. From certain angles they almost look 3 dimensional and I love that look too. Nails look great too. Love the subtle colors. Like it a lot.

[@kwernerdesign]

Thank you! :)

[@barbsomerson5238]

Very nice cards, love the idea and the colors. Thanks again!

Great cards Kristina - such gorgeous designs. Love how you changed things up a little to make 2 different cards. Thanks so much for sharing your cards with us :-)

[@kwernerdesign]

Thank you for watching and commenting. :)

[@12lesflo]

My favorite idea was when you shaded the yellow for the inside of the word Thank you. That was brilliant. I loved it!!!!!

[@carolmelancon]

Super cool CAS cards!

[@redrivershootout]

Here it is 2018 and I love the use of this alphabet die set... Looked all over for High Line Alphabet, (I thought I heard you say??), then watched again and read the name from the die set packaging, and it said High Rise from My Favorite Things... and now I've found it!!! Thank you so much for this video... It's a great alphabet die set.

[@donnadacy5876]

Thanks for a great video. This is a great way to make the same card but they have a completely different look. Love the design. TFS

I have these alphabet in both lower & uppercase on order with MFT. I will have to remember the tape trick! That will be helpful when making numerous cards!

Awesome! I need to pick up the uppercase version, too! :)

[@margiepalmeri343]

I liked these

[@AnerevRel]

I don't know why, but these kinda remind me of Staw Wars? I don't know why :D Something about the font, the colors and those dots...

[@BohistaNordica]

Thanks. Thumbs up!

[@janesaavedra1323]

Kristina could I use my cricut and print out the letters like a stamp?

[@Scrapandome]

[@Sotolivas]

[@mamascorpio]

very not bad!

[@sunitabhilare9840]

Hi kerstina I am 16 years old I love to make card but I don't have lot supplies I love I get inspired by you I am an indian

[@kimnir]

Hi Kristina, thank you so much for sharing your talent and knowledge with us all. I just loved this idea, and I was wondering how would you go about using it if you had a repeatted letter in the word you wanted to die cut. Thanks, Kim

[@kwernerdesign]

When you space out the letters before die cutting, use a different letter that is a similar size as a place holder for the repeated letter. Then remove the place holder die before die cutting. After the initial cut, you can place the repeated letter die over the blank spot and run it through your die cutting machine. Does that make sense?

[@kimnir]

K Werner Design It makes perfect sense. Thank you!

[@SEGAGOAQUI]
