Craft With Me - Altered Playing Cards With Doors!!

[@LaurieEtchison]

You might be able to find those little closures on the back of picture frames. They’re often used to hold the back of the picture frame in the outer frame, if that makes sense. I probably have a dozen or so old frames packed away in storage. Thanks for sharing another cute project.😊💕📚

[@melindamarie6139]

GREAT idea!!!

[@suannejefferies4240]

You could always cut a point closure out of heavy cardstock, punch a hole in the end & add the brad! 😊

[@SunsetCrafts]

Thanks Laurie. I’m sure you gave others ideas on how to get them. I have plenty for now. Thanks for watching

[@karenwilson3172]

Oh my goodness Maggie…these are incredible! I haven’t even finished watching the entire video but I am so blown away with your creativity!! Just had to pop on and say …WOW!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Karen, you are so sweet. Thank you so much for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed this project. They were so much fun to make.

[@juniperpearle]

My goodness, what an adorable idea!! These are so cute that I don't think they need a specific purpose other than decorative page embellishments. But I think these would be adorable for the front of a journal. Good job, good idea, good share - thank you!!

[@SunsetCrafts]

So glad you enjoyed this project. I had so much fun making these. Thanks so much for watching

[@waboosje]

They look lovely. I did a lot of different types of altered playing cards but didn't think of doing it this way yet. For the closures you can also use an altered can lock, like from colacans and so. Tfs ❤

[@SunsetCrafts]

Great idea. The possibilities are endless with this project. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching

[@eileendean2713]

This would be a wonderful project for an Alice in Wonderland journal. So clever, thank you.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Eileen, this would definitely be nice in an Alice journal. Thanks so much for watching

[@suzyallen1726]

Maggie you did it again. I'm glad you made the mistake on card size because I think we all would have had it happen. I have to try to look for something that looks like a hinge. I'm making a journal for my daughter and I think I'll put my granddaughters pictures inside

[@kimberlymolitor354]

Great idea!! 🥰

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Suzy. It’s definitely better that I figure out the mistakes before you do. Your idea of adding your granddaughters pictures inside the cards is fabulous! That’s going to look amazing!

[@janicestookey8544]

I tried your Etsy shop and it wouldn’t come up.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Janice, unfortunately I don’t have any listings in my shop at the moment. That’s why nothing will come up, but I do plan on adding mystery goodie bags and maybe another glue bottle collection soon. Thanks for watching

Your ideas are incredible - I accidentally discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago when I was searching for the ID cards and I am so pleased I did - you aren’t just duplicating other ideas, your stuff is original and so fun to make and doesn’t involve expensive products - I really appreciate that what you do is doable and I always end up satisfied with what I make - thanks for being generous with your ideas - take care - oh and this will be my weekend project 👍🏻

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Cyndi, welcome to my channel. I appreciate your kind words. It means so much to me that you’re liking my content and that I explain clearly enough for others to follow along. I would love to see your version of this project. It’s always so fun to see other peoples take on what I’ve made. Thanks so much for watching

[@tracynelson3279]

I absolutely love these! I have so many Tim Holtz paper dolls. This is a great idea to use them up. I was going to run out and get hinges but thought i could use bits of cloth and reinforce cardstock and glue together, then put the brads thru that. This would keep costs down too. I can't wait to try this!

[@joycebergthold3170]

I like your idea with the cloth as a hinge!

New here. Love your ideas. The guy talking in back was distracting. You can always silence your videos and do a voiceover later to eliminate background noise ( I’m a fellow KZbinr and it took me forever to learn that). You have a wonderful speaking voice and I love that you don’t talk just to be talking. I tried watching the paper outpost but she has a bird in the background and she says things trying to be funny that isn’t. 😂. I’ve subbed to your channel. ❤
