Very beautiful card. You did an awesome job working through the adversity your machine threw you. I always learn some wonderful things from you. The way you cut the foam tape and wrapped around the heart was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing ❤

Oh my word! Disasters not withstanding Chris, you still managed to create an exquisite and elegant card. You never seem to become flustered when obstacles arise, merely pressing on, in the knowledge that all will be well in the end. The diamonds are the perfect finishing touch, your Grand Daughter would be delighted with your profligate use of them, Thank you for a brilliant video.

@@Chrissieannie I’m not given to adding much in the way of “do-dads” just for the sake of “bling”, but the “diamonds” were actually essential to carrying out both the theme and the design of the card. Call me impressed!! 👍👍👍‼️

@ I would be delighted to do so!

[@patmoore365]

Oh dear, I did feel for you when you said disaster had struck Chrissie... I didn't think that running a frame through the machine should result in catastrophe and I thought you had only had the machine for two or three years, but maybe it is longer and you have used it a lot... Anyway it is a beautiful Diamond Anniversary card and such a lovely idea to make it a shaker with all the sweet little hearts, and the lovely pretty soft white glitter card you used for the heart frame and the added flowers and leaves, and shaker pieces, and the script you used for the sentiment detail looks so elegant....a brilliant card. x

Hi. I had a cuttlebug machine for 30 yrs. I was trying to emboss with a 3-d embossing folder and broke my machine. My husband and I took it all apart thinking the rollers just got misaligned. Didnt work, after there wasnt enough pressue. So out it went. I bought another cuttlebug (second hand) but I want a cutting machine that has an opening wider then 6''. My parents were married 62 yrs. Your card turned out beautifully, love the roman numerals. Enjoy your day. Tfs.Sherry 🇨🇦.

The diamonds are the best part! Perfect finishing touch, bringing everything together. Chris, I saw a YT content creator's husband take apart her Big Shot to repair a roller arm of sorts. He went through many levels of deconstruction by just removing every screw as he went. You may not repair the machine, but at least you'll have your missing cutting pieces. Grab some screwdrivers of various sizes and have at it. 🙂 From Cheryl in AZ

[@Chrissieannie]

I have removed every screw, but the rollers seem to be attached in a different way, I’ll take another look at KZbin for advice and then probably take it outside and drop it !🤣🤦‍♀️

Hi, I just subscribed you appeared on my feed and I love card making and craft. Although my kids put money together and bought me a cricut joy for Christmas, it nearly put me off card making for life. Any card I attempted the machine tore them to bits, I did use the card that came with the machine. I have contacted the firm Cricut but they are not helping at all. I thought they were better than that. I have sent photos of the machine and what it did when I tried to make cards. Xx Beautiful card well done ❤ x

I can't believe you were able to bounce back and produce such an amazing card! It is absolutely beautiful and will go on my list of favorite cards you've made. So elegant and l love the additional diamonds. Stunning! 🩷 PS: I know you've already ordered a replacement, but if you have a handyman in the family, it may be worthwhile to have them look at it anyway. There is a KZbin video titled "Repair Spellbinders Platinum Die Cutting & Embossing Machine". It has no audio but does show how to disassemble and the gear mechanisms. If it turns out to be just the handle mechanism, Spellbinders sells a complete handle kit ($6 USD) and you'll have another backup machine. At worse, hopefully they can tinker with it to salvage your plates and dies. 🤞

Gorgeous card! So sorry about your machine. It happened to me, but luckily my husband disassembles all sorts of things & has the special tools for disassembling those click together plastic parts without breaking them (he's an engineer). If we weren't on the other side of the planet, I'd ask him to take a look. Are you brave enough to potentially break the machine completely to extract the dies & perhaps the plates? A hammer & something that will fit thru the apperature, like a long screwdriver, might dislodge it enough to grab with pliers. Just dislodging one of the plates should enable you to extract the rest. Or just whack the heck out of the plastic parts & remove them as they break. It will expose the metal parts & other screws holding everything together. In future you might want to stagger the plates enough to be able to grab one to wiggle it out if something jams up. Fingers crossed you can save as much as possible.

[@Chrissieannie]

I could do with an engineer… I thought I might try to wreck the top plastic plate… break it in order to wiggle it out, but taking a hammer to the machine sounds like fun !🤣🤣🤣

Christine, I love your channel and you are too clever by half! However, I don't understand what you use for envelopes to fit all those large square cards you create. A standard sheet of cardstock is too small to mOe an envelope from and I've not seen commercial envelopes that size in the marketplace. FYI, in the US we have to add extra postage to the already costly rate for mailing a square first-class envelope. Best regards from Virginia, USA.

[@Chrissieannie]

The majority of commercial cards in the UK are square. Envelopes can be easily purchased from any envelope supplier here. My square cards are not terribly large… less than 6x6ins I know about the postal rates for square cards in the US, but you can put a square card in a rectangular envelope. If I want to make an envelope for really large cards I use sheets of A3 sized paper
