you are very talented and i also think you have a very good voice, its very calm and easy to follow. i think the sound of your voice and having a calming personality are almost as important as knowing about the subject you're teaching. its just easier to follow and helps you more of a relationship with your followers and i think you definitely are doing a great job. thanks for sharing it and for all of the new ideas i now have thanks to you!

[@rafaelaperez327]

You can glue a magnet on the back, and put it where ever you want, on the fridge, office metal file, etc. Thanks for sharing 😉

[@Remyboyandhismommy]

Rafaela Perez That's a good idea. Then people can take them off their gift and put it on the fridge to enjoy every time they open it :-)

[@rafaelaperez327]

Remy boy and his Mommy Yessss 👍😄

[@99rylee]

Rafaela Perez that's a very good idea. I had turned old photos into fridge magnets of my kids and added a frame to one of them.

[@MindlessCrafting]

Such a good idea! Hope you're having a lovely weekend! :)

[@rafaelaperez327]

GiftBasketAppeal Than you. You too 😊

[@prozer18]

Tracy....from "donnafay designs" . You really inspire me! It's been a long time since I've been inspired. I used to teach Mixed Media Art" at a local Scrapbook store till they moved. I also made my own templets and "Fill In The Blank" books and journals. Watching your talent has refreshed me and I'm back to designing once again. Thank you. donnafay

[@MindlessCrafting]

+donnafay kennedy OH MY!!! Donna...you made my day! I am so glad that you are motivated to craft again! That is the purpose of my channel. I look forward to seeing some of your creation! Sending you a great BIG HUG!!!

[@zynzane9680]

After you glued on the mesh, with the wet glue, you could sprinkle some glitter. They came out really nice!

[@BlossomWithPaper]

Tracey, I really like these. I was wondering what I should do tomorrow and I think it will be this. What are you planning on doing with these? Thanks for sharing this

[@lupecastro1076]

[@DoloresJRush]

I was thinking if you didn't have any scraps of decorative paper, one could use pretty tissue boxes. Would make cute little favors for a tea party too!

[@MsJet1]

Great idea! I'll have to start saving the cereal boxes.

[@M3glamsquad]

[@denabritton4626]

Love thee! Guess I'm gonna have to get my stamps out. I had decided to get rid of them because I haven't used them in years but now I am inspired by your creation....once again.

[@Tinkerbell31326]

so creative. I just discovered you. I am a new subbie!

[@johncmullins5005]

Great idea! I've used tissue boxes to die cut designs out of. This is another great idea...thanks!

[@MindlessCrafting]

[@decofunribbonbowmaker5342]

[@myangelsmandt]

[@janfield3372]

I KNEW I was hoarding cereal boxes for some reason …. now I know why. THANKS A BUNCH. GREAT TUTORIAL. LOVE ALL YOUR embellishments. Love that stamp set too.

[@daffydeb5648]

Very very pretty and so well done Tracy... :)

[@kraftiegirl8387]

Very thrifty. Love your ideas. I have a challenge for you........I have been seeing these shaker tags, paper clips & cards. With your great teaching ability, could you please do one. I have tried 2 and came out so - so. Thanks!

[@MindlessCrafting]

I love that challenge. Never done a shaker card/tag before. I'll have to watch a few tutorials. Adding it to my list! Hugs, Tracey

[@eileenmoore7725]

Just ordered a stamp from Maymaymadeit.

[@crystalsinclair8935]

very pretty 🌺thanks for sharing

[@barbaraexume]

I'm going to be doing these. Thanks

[@craftsbypwilli2664]

So so inspired! New subbie for sure! Nit I'm going to be going around my house eyes wide open looking for items I can use in a project. How much is that doggie in the window! 😆 I'm sure you've heard of that song, that song pooped in my head when you said your dog was looking out the window 😍

[@donnaekay2157]

These are awesome! Beautiful work! TFS! Hugs!

[@MsSuperklutz]

OMG and WOW.....Your Upcycled Tags are Gorgeous.....I'm truly in awe of what you created and how it all got started....I just kept saying "Are you kidding me"!! It was sooooo much fun you create one from scratch.....certainly would've never thought of doing something like this using a cereal box.....or any cardboard that is just for the trash....you definitely took the term "Trash to Treasure" to a whole new level. You definitely came up with loads of creative ideas to achieve your Spectacular look...and I pretty much have all the tools you used just never thought of using them in this way and as a die hard scrapper it's always fun to see different ways to create embellishment for the page itself or to use for a Journaling tag. Thanks for sharing all of your Tremendously Terrific Tips, Tricks & Techniques and I am in totally agreement with your follower Kim-Puffer-crossley 100% agree with all she said. Thanks for another Craftabuous share packed with inspiration. Wishing you a Tremendously Terrific Thursday. YOU SO ROCK!! Joan Smith

[@melissagonzalez6695]

They are all so beautiful. Tyfs❤️

[@darlyswynn5594]

Great ideas...love your work...you have inspired me...I am going to use this idea for a mixed media canvas. Thank you!

[@janetdonaldson2308]

Love the idea of using pens to add light or dark highlights to pre-printed papers!

[@MindlessCrafting]

Thanks! I appreciate you watching! Hugs, Tracey

[@acraftingheart8037]

Hello, I have been watching you for some time and I really enjoy your channel. I love what you did with this project, I am going to try it.

[@kellijohnson7093]

I love to watch you create! So very inspiring and relaxing. ****You make SO MANY beautiful things, what do you do with all of your creations? ***Do you have an Etsy shop or do craft fairs? I'd love to know, I'm sure others are curious as well. If you've ever mentioned this, I've missed it, although I've watched a ton of your videos. Your imagination in the use of every day objects is amazing!! And everything you do always looks SO PROFESSIONAL, like something I'd buy in a gift store. You seem to have a great selection of tools , stamps, pens, glues, tapes, etc. When you have time, I have a suggestion. Maybe you could do a series of "paper craft essentials ". I know you encourage us to use what we have, and I DEFINITELY DO!! (ask the hubby 😊) But, a great artist must have her paints and brushes, right?!! I just think it would be helpful. Thanks for all you share, you bring light and joy to the world

[@michellejenkins3902]

Thank you for sharing. Great idea keeping it simple. Really enjoyed how real you are in your video. 😊

[@w.alyciaburise6313]

I love your work! Is the Quick Stick refillable?

[@MindlessCrafting]

Thank you! It is refillable. You have to buy the putty separately. It's called Loctite Mounting Tabs and you can buy them at Walmart and on Amazon. Have a great weekend!

[@julianshaddix7154]

What a neat embellishment! I love the idea of re-cycling the cereal boxes; I do that a lot. Thanks for your ideas & for sharing your beautiful talent. Betty

[@btrflywmn]

Love it!! Thanks :)

[@dianngaines5167]

That stitch line just makes these!

[@bobbiroberts6788]

These are adorable...TYFS

[@yveymf2584]

I love it! I am all about recycling things and reinventing...thanks for this idea. Definitely a craft to do with family or friends. Tfs xo

[@themothertrucker490]

You've really inspired me! 🤔I watched 3of your videos, and going to watch more. I too save everything 😂 and repurpose it. All throughout this project I Invision these cards on a stick in the middle of the bouquet you put together in the coffee can.🌻🌼🌹 Liked & subscribed ❤

[@judymcgibbon6556]

OMG! You are awesome! Shared this post with my friends! Thank you so much for sharing your talent!

[@DivaZRussell]

Very pretty! Thanks for the idea about tracing items for different shapes, punches do get expensive. God bless!

[@carrolmumford45852]

This is so cute. Great job.

[@missreesecb]

Hi Tracey, How is it your Quick Stic place so easily??? Mine don't work like that, as a matter of fact, it doesn't place at all. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I've tried over and over, no placements, so I've requested a replacement from Amazon. Maybe its defective.

[@terrycanales8006]

Beautiful! Great idea!!!

[@PerfectlyImperfect6570]

Very pretty and creative. Where do you buy the glue in the bottle with the metal top?

[@MindlessCrafting]

+Lionness 33 Thank you! I put a link in the description box above!

[@terriconrad4612]

Very creative!!! ❤️ it!!!

[@dawnb1715]

Hi Tracey, thank you for providing the links for the foam tape and Stardust Jelly Roll. I really like your embellishments. I saved a few cereal boxes after you showed your stash in your craft room tour. Have a great day! :)

[@mildredwhitehair5832]

These are really lovely. Good job and very creative. Have to try it.

[@nadiac.7503]

I love these embellishments.

[@bobbeduran9277]

Beautiful. They would make great card fronts. A wonderful project, thanks.

[@DebbyLong777]

I am loving watching your KZbins. They are changing my thoughts about crafting, which for me, is a good thing. I can feel the spark being re-ignited. Thanks Tracey. Bless you.

[@DonnaHarris3578]

These are beautiful! I know I want a quick stick pen. And I love sparkles!

[@cozycraftycat6759]

Lovely! Tracy, thanks so much for sharing your creativity with others. I have already tried some of your projects and look forward to more!

[@canaperez9915]

Tracy I love your work everything is so beautiful Carmen Perez from Bloomfield. N J

[@debbieellebracht9422]

I enjoy your style of using what you have, especially your hand tracing items, when you don't own punches. The coffee lid is a great example. ..good eye!

[@99rylee]

I bought the crafters tape and I found that mine didn't work at all. what brand is yours?

[@MindlessCrafting]

+HRD 77 Sorry to hear that! The one I use is the Ad Tech Permanent Crafters Tape.

[@99rylee]

GiftBasketAppeal thankyou. I'm hoping theres that brand at Micheals here in Canada. God bless you.

[@marialuisafranklin3912]

great idea, I love the inspiration of your project would love it for my church sisters

[@rebecahernandez7099]

mE ENCANTO TU PROYECTO... FELICIDADES Y GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR... SALUDOS DESDE MEXICO.

[@debbiewilcox7509]

I just found your channel and subscribed. You have really put me on to a whole new way of looking at throw away items such as packaging and such and showed how to turn it into something beautiful. I am a sucker for pretty embellishments and just never realized how easy they can be to make. I will be able to use up so much of my scrapes and miscellaneous craft items. Thank you so much. I don't know if you have ever done this before, but using the "Roayal Chinet" paper plates is also a nice weight of cardboard to use.

[@lynnedoyle2026]

You're awesome. I've just recently found your videos and I'm a fan of your style and great ideas. Thanks.

[@yolandebw]

I really enjoy your tutorials. Question: Has your Quickstick tool ever stopped sticking? Is there a way to re-stick it or did you have to buy another one?

[@conservativetothecor]

I had subscribed to you quite some time ago and couldnt find how to access my subscriptions for so long. Seemed like you tube was blocking me for some crazy reason. So glad I found you again. You have such wonderful ideas.

[@ElinT13]

I love all your stuff, Tracy! You give me wonderful ideas, which is why I will have to watch a whole lot more of your videos. Greetings from Germany!

[@galememeeof6688]

[@paigepappasbednarsky6498]

Tracey, your are Awsome, amazingly creative, I enjoy your videos!

[@roxannetucker5813]

I was just thinking they are shaped like belt buckle and would make some great masculine tags too! Thanks for sharing.

[@0224je]

Beautiful embellishments. I love how you give ideas for making crafts if you don’t have the punches or dies. I have a lot but I have been looking at things around my house to get additional shapes

[@marymoore6884]

Really nice...
