[@craftingaplannedlifejoanna9291]

Miss Laura and another perfect rainbow card!!!! Gotta love it, especially for Valentine's Day! Good luck with virtual learning!!!

[@KWicksable]

I must confess, when I see a thumbnail with a rainbow, I immediately get the smiles because I know it’s you. Not only do I enjoy your cards,but I get a kick out of your short stories and your self proclaimed vocabulary. Keep on keepin on. You are a ray of sunshine and a cool breeze in this pandemic. That’s a good thing. 🌝 🌈 🌬☃️.

[@trudievick2359]

God love ya! I've always said teachers are all going to heaven. Ok now to this wonderful card. Love the colors. You never cease to amaze. Thanks for sharing your talent and wonderful stories of life. Happy Valentine's Day to you!

[@traceyallen8286]

Oh Laura you just crack me up!!!! So glad my kids are waaay past school........and that you have kept your sense of humour

[@joanorr4001]

Oh so pretty! I love your color-filled cards. They make me smile as does your commentary on your life. Thank you so much, Laura.

[@suzimetcalfe8423]

Love, love, love! Love the card, love the colorful toys, love you an your family!

[@cheri6905]

A bright, cheerful, colorful shaker card - you can't lose!! Yes, I agree - don't worry about the telling-time thing - it will come soon enough. As an AF brat, I often had to change schools mid-way through the school-year. Wherever I was had not taught something yet, & wherever I went next had already taught it! Therefore, I didn't learn to tell time until the 4th grade.... & it was no big deal. And that was WAY before anything 'digital' was even heard of!

[@cathymorris8072]

SOOOO CUTE! I'm laughing so hard as you tell about your day with virtual school. I'm also sorry with your frustrations. I think if you were to record a podcast about your life it would be a best seller!

[@orlahastings4563]

You always manage to brighten my day Laura, with both your cards and your chat, thank you for sharing them both. Your ever present good humour is a tonic! 😘

[@dianerosati4973]

LOVE the card and LOVE the chit chat while making it. I was in stitches!!! You're a hoot 😂😂😂

[@kathygroff4526]

The school + technology challenge, oh, my. It’s to the point now that our grandsons helped parents and grandparents get it all set up for a Zoom birthday party last weekend. Cannot even imagine being online all day and teaching. Well, the good stuff is this lovely card! Great tip on the spacing, it turned out perfect......yes, the glue on the acetate. Have a great day, Emma should know how to get the microphone working now, so she learned something today. 😊 As for 3:80, hmmmm. Love ya, TFS! 🌈❤️ 💌

[@sharoncoventry8097]

I am so grateful my son is back at school. On-line learning was a disaster last year. Love the card❤🧡💛💚💙💜

[@simpleartideas]

Sweet little card full of bubbly colorful hearts, enjoyed your card making process.

[@shellidoyle7975]

Love the card....the stories are fabulous! I too would be fired as a teacher...I have “resigned”...my poor grandson. 🤦🏼‍♀️. Very stressful! Thankfully he is back in school! Have a wonderful day!

[@alwaysCHItee]

Beautiful card Laura! Just breathe....things will get better

[@bridgetn2575]

Hey, it’s 4:80 somewhere, amirite? 😄 Beautiful card as always, Laura. TFS!

[@rizaepfiefle5362]

The card is so cute and quick. Absolutly Loved it. Best laugh I've had today... listening to your school troubles!!! Let her buy the red pumps and make a clock saying 3:80 !!!

[@stanky6261973]

It sounded like you said "rows and rows of farts" I almost woke my husband at 2:45 or 2:97 am, laughing so hard and loud!! I really needed that, thank you :). Beautiful card, Laura.

[@JMicheleS33]

LOVE the card, so cute and gorgeous colors! “It’s 3:80” at our house twice a day, but I’m in Texas, where we’re experiencing all four seasons in a week (we’re currently covered in thick ice and it’s starting to snow, forecast to continue through tomorrow, our normal highs are 65 degrees)! 🥶

[@lisasilver8054]

Love your card, Laura. It's loverly!!! I'm not sue I would have survived virtual school with my kiddos. All the best to you!

[@teresasanner-fecto3690]

I love a shaker card. You are so joyful... and it's contagious. You are so neat...I am a disaster with glue.

[@aquinyc]

What a cheerful card!!! Love it!!! You crack me up with your stories!!!! 😂 My daughter Hailey is 11 and she doesn’t know how to tell time From a regular old fashion clock! If it’s not digital, she’s lost! I tried so many times...so many times. 🤯 Laura

[@743linda]

Adorable!!! Always love your color choices! Good luck with home schooling.

[@sharlahays]

I love that Bailey was shopping 😂😂

[@jessicanaser2939]

Yes homeschooling uuugh lol.. my daughter does the samething window shopping on her phone while her class is on the computer. Can not wait to return back to somewhat normal again. Lol...😂🤣 love this card🥰

[@TexasSandog]

If course we love your card! Best wishes with the virtual learning!

[@terriannvalentino8826]

Your stories are so awesome, don’t ever stop. I have kids hybrid learning too, with similar stories.

[@sarahsmilecards1228]

It may not always feel like it, but your doing a great job with the homeschooling. Your care and concern is evident and that's half the battle. Hands on activities are very helpful. Have Emma make a clock with paper plate and attach paper hands with a brad so they will move.

[@tonic2639]

:D :D :D Another gorgeous card and hilarious story - love it!

[@brendachoy3131]

Beautiful rainbow colored card as always! I so enjoy your commentaries re: your life and your girls - you had me laughing out loud! Thanks for bringing joy to our day!

[@dfmlees]

That is so gorgeous. Thanks for your chatter, you make my day.

[@moirahansen1955]

So enjoy your videos. Lovely card and a giggle. "Just a dab will do ya". The home /virtual schooling is a challenge. Stay safe and well. 🇿🇦😊

[@lindaruschmeyer5298]

I wish you were my neighbor!! We would have so much fun. Love your videos and this card is adorable. TFS

[@thememorytravelerReset]

*Square dancing* with stamps! Love your bright, happy card!

[@barbarareimer4773]

Oh, my goodness. I just laughed throughout your video (while watching the darling design develop). I can relate to not knowing how to mute the microphone. I was in a Zoom family meeting where we were watching a video and everyone was muted except me. My son finally said "Mom, if you don't know how to mute, at least be quiet!!" So, been there, done that. Thanks for a lovely card!

[@jenedge5579]

Omg, love the stories, can so relate. Hang in there. ♥️

[@terrie1226]

Great colorful card and your stories......TFS

[@elizabethjoubert5647]

Fun card... fun kids! Lol love your posts ☺️

[@pattibrigman9469]

Hi, on the advice of Cathy Z. I wanted to view your videos. You make lovely cards. You also make me so glad my child is out of school. Have a blessed and safe day.

[@WendieMorgan]

Omg, the remote school chronicles are SO relatable.

[@brendajennings5438]

Hang in there...the school struggle is a tough one! Love the card...thanks for sharing your good humor and happy cards!

[@aliscraps-allisonbunt]

Your stories are so good, I come here for the stories 😘🤪 no not really, it's the cards but boy I do love the stories. Great card by the way. 💓 hang in there with the 380 and red pumps, it can only go up, can't it 🤔

[@Monica---]

You are talented AND hilarious! It's always a treat when you share a video with us. Thank you! 💗💗💗

[@cre8tvmom]

I think some of the guys I work with went to the same time training class as your daughter! You wouldn’t believe it! Especially now, during snow removal season, when they work thru the midnight hour...messes em all up!

[@giselled.4149]

My daughter never learned her multiplication tables and she had 90’s all through high school. I asked her teacher one year why she wasn’t learning them in class and apparently with “new” math they do it differently. To me it seemed far more time consuming than just knowing them but I had 60’s in math so what do I know! 🤷‍♀️. Love the card as always!

[@tammychernow4129]

That is super cute!

[@elizabethnovak4951]

Beyond adorable! I mean REALLY beyond adorable! I know you’ll say you don’t have to use those exact colors but they work together so beautifully. Why mess with perfection. Bless you for hanging in there with virtual learning. (My daughter is 38 now but I’m pretty sure I’d be lost trying to help.) Especially considering your kids are at a German school. QUESTION (and the answer may be in other comments but I can’t go there without losing my place): What time IS 380? My best guess would be 4:20am. But that’s more based on base 60 than time learning.

[@kimhund2782]

Cool technique. Thank you for sharing.

[@pattyeifert4355]

Beautiful!

[@juliehurst7026]

I very much enjoyed your video! Thank you!!

[@leescraps1]

Love this!

[@nesbel2007]

I love your videos! Short, funny, and with a gorgeous card at the end!! What else can you ask for! 😍

[@dianehunter3034]

Very cute. I’m so glad I don’t have to homeschool. Yay for you for getting through. Maybe a little vino will help.

[@lornaassmus9189]

Love it!

[@kays-gee9018]

I can't even begin to think about 15.80 o'clock 😄 well, as we would say in Germany: we only need a tent and the circus is complete 😉 hang in there, we are in this together, I am one of the teachers on the other side of the computer 🥰

[@joanbardee5135]

Beautiful card and products. Your stories make me chuckle. Thanks!!!

[@alicemahone2782]

You never disappoint! Beautiful card and fabulous commentary!

[@scrappingranny]

Beautiful

[@mzp6620]

I had to laugh about the girls, hang in there Laura, you guys are going to make it!! I loved your card design and the circle die. I have a few of those circle dies from my favorite things, they are great!

[@juliegauchay4219]

Laura! 🤣🤣🤣 Life at your house is never dull! I laughed right out loud today. And I don't care what people say, unmuting is hard! #beenthere Thanks for keeping it real, Laura. You are a kick in the pants - er, khakis. 😂 [BTW, I'm still watchingwaitinghoping for some Laura Bassen merch!🤞] See you next time, maybe at 3:85.

[@karenvalfon]

Hahaha, you made me laugh with Emma's hour dilemma.

[@MsRebekka1]

This is just adorable! Love the hearts.

[@lisak2575]

Doing well! Yes, take a breath and hang in there. Been through the times tables a couple of times and bought many a game. Love the card!

[@annholliday4489]

The school struggle is real! Love the card.

[@DeeDee-yz9ku]

I have had my grandchildren learning at my house. 2nd&4th grade, 2nd grade on a Crome Book, a little trouble here and there. This week they are in school 4 days. Thankful, but no vaccine here yet. It helps to know, your not alone. The teachers know there is a Challenge, sometimes.

[@lorispitzer8289]

The teachers know all the time, I assure you.

[@corisudderth6753]

I knew that was you even before I started the video! :) so cute 💕

[@thecraftyhairdressercardsa205]

Is it bad that I hit the thumbs up before I’d even watched the video 🙃. Gorgeous card as usual ❤️

[@janbauch7714]

Love your hearts💞. The stories about your girls makes me laugh. But what can you do? You’re in the middle of a pandemic. 😅

[@MSQWEENE]

Thanks for sharing..funny story

[@edseedwanderer8497]

I want it 😘😍

[@lootseepanganiban-lustan278]

❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷🍓🍓🍓

[@bethjackson8727]

Try online learning with a four year old in junior kindergarten.

[@Dotalina33]

Sweet colorful card....of course!!! Good ole days of child rearing trying to stay one step ahead of the crazies! Lol. But the proverbial pinch on the arm will come...you know ...that says “ I made it!

[@elizabethnash8805]
