I giggle at Christmas in July in the Northern Hemisphere... I thought it was only an Australian thing because our Christmases are so so hot!!

[@maryweimer8207]

What a beautiful card, but oh boy, it requires a very steady hand!

[@joseemathieu2617]

what a nice card it seem that Christmas in July is a new things the colour are beautiful and with the ink it give it a nice shine love it as always 🥰

[@LisaVornhagen]

That is really cute! I love the glow around the lightbulbs!

[@Bethadilly]

Me too!

[@quiltinggrandma8633]

What a beautiful card!!! I love the glowing idea.

[@Bethadilly]

Thanks so much!

I have found that if you hot foil sentiments perpendicular to the rollers on the platinum 6 you don't get that last big bump on the last word of the sentiment die. At least that works most times for me. Super cute card. Even though it is mid summer we are stuck inside because of smoke from Canada wild fires so crafting it is!

[@Bethadilly]

I thought about this after seeing the results! Thanks for confirming that this would work better, I’ll try it!

[@KDubTwin2]

Thank you for this video. I have the hot foil system. I get a little confused about placing everything 😊

[@samanthahardy7528]

This looks beautiful. I love the added ink blend feature

[@Bethadilly]

Thank you, me too!

[@bethgray4151]

I love the way you used the ink to make the bulbs look like they are glowing!

[@Bethadilly]

Thank you, Beth!

Hot summer is the norm in Australia - I have trouble with all the snow themes. Santa in boardies on the beach is our thing, so more options are great - thanx

[@Bethadilly]

This is definitely a good option then!

[@barbarafender7046]

It seemed like you had better results using the timer rather than when you let it heat with the platform. I love how your card turned out. The color palate is so cute!

[@Bethadilly]

Yes, this time I did! Unfortunately, I don't find it to be consistent though.

[@celinawright21]

Love love love! I know certain colors are harder for you to experiment with, but have you considered playing with more colors out of your comfort zone? If not no worries I was just curious 🫶🏼

[@Bethadilly]

Nah, I like to keep true to myself and my style in my work. Always feel free to change up the colors on your projects if you wish, but our personal styles are what make us unique! :)

[@Shannamakesit]

So so cute!

[@Bethadilly]

Thanks, friend!!

[@sheilalewis5227]

Oh I love that card. I think my next purchase will be the mini die cutting machine. On another nite can you please tell me which watch you are wearing. I love it. Thanks

[@Bethadilly]

I am wearing a Garmin. :)

[@annekeolivier9646]

Loved your demo...please tell me what type of cardstock you use. Greetings from 🇿🇦

[@Bethadilly]

Thank you! Everything I used can be found linked in the description box below the video!

Hi Bethany - I have a cricut maker and am thinking about venturing into card making, but all the stuff is so expensive. Knowing that you also have a cricut machine, do you feel it's really necessary to get the separate die cutting machine, embossing and foiling machine to make cards like you do? I have bought the blending brushes and some distress oxide inks, a stencil or 2 and a misti (because I cannot stamp straight on to save my life). In your opinion, do I really need anything more or can I achieve similar card looks like you do with what I have?

[@Bethadilly]

I’m a firm believer that you should craft with what you have until you feel like you need to upgrade or add additional supplies. I do personally prefer to craft with dies when cardmaking, but you can use a cricut! I have a video coming out about cardmaking on a cricut in 2 or 3 weeks for the summer challenge so be sure to watch that for inspiration when it’s released!

[@heidifris4880]

@@Bethadillythank you so much Bethany for responding and I’ll definitely be watching for that video!
