Get MORE use from the MINI ink pads: Saturday Night Crafting

[@countrymouse47]

Congratulations on your KZbin success! So much nicer when Mom can work from home when there are young ones to be cared for! And crafting surely must be much more fun than framing in a shop, however nice the employer might be! 😃

[@magdahearne497]

Really pretty cards, great idea for making an unusual background, so simple & a fab way of using up scraps...love it 😍 Thanks for sharing 🌻💖🌻

[@FlowerGemsGirl]

I got the kitty version of that pencil case and I LOVE it! I need to adjust my placement, cause I have no spare room in the back, I used all the slots for my brush markers and twimarkers. But it holds stuff great! Thanks for sharing!!

[@roden70]

I like this look. Not everything has to be perfectly straight. Congrats on being able to turn your hobby into your work.

[@donnalipscomb4685]

Congratulations Sahsa, on being able to quit your job, and soon able to work from home, with your own business! 😃 That is simply Fantastic news. WOOHOOO! 😁 And then in turn, we get to also spend more crafty time with you! It's a 😁 WIN WIN 😁 As always, love your cards. I especially love the pink one, with those Beautiful butterflies. I would love to get my hands on some of that pearlescent cardstock, it's gorgeous. 🤗 Blessings, my Sweet Friend

[@margaretcrook2188]

That a great look Sasha!, I really like how you show us something different, how to use our scraps & little glues & I love your pickie up tool! Brilliant!! How wonderful that you will be able to work from home doing something you love. Thanks for the video

[@reneemattorano5470]

Love this idea for using your craps! Congrats on your new business! We’re gonna love seeing more of your videos! 😊

[@Louisianagirl_1126]

Oooh Sasha, I’m the same way about turning my paper sideways. I LOVE watching your videos, you are always so informative.

[@jackiemuller813]

I had to smile..I have my minis in a Ferraro box too! Thanks for sharing your crafting!

[@sandravandewater1998]

I'm so excited for you that you are going to have your own business. I found your channel after watching Natasha Foote, and I really look forward to your Sat night videos. I live in NZ, and you post them just before I wake on a Sunday 🙂 (Sunday morning our time = Sat night your time). They are my new must watch before I get up on Sunday morning. So excited for you. 💜💙💚

[@SashaReade]

Oh i do love Natasha's videos! She's a fab friend as well. I long to do as well as her. So pleased you've come to join me with creating :) thank you for your lovely message

[@christineroberts4153]

I was surprised how nice the cards looked in the end! Such a nice simple idea. Thank you.

[@lesleyritchie5085]

Perfectly imperfect. Thats what I call and its always my style. Tyfs and as always a fun and learning environment

[@evansdeb]

I love how it all came together... at first I thought what the heck... but it turned out great... thank you for sharing your talent with us..

[@SashaReade]

I know that's exactly why i put what i did on the screen! Looked a right mess at the start ha ha

[@simonysinclair7163]

Congratulations on being able to be self employed! I enjoy your videos and chats so it will be nice to see more of you 😘

[@janevonvoros8786]

Love your out-of-the-box thinking to use the pens alongside the ink pads! It works :)

[@SashaReade]

It really does, im super happy with how it all turned out

[@michelewimpelberg6609]

I was a bit skeptical myself when you first started out, but they turned out to be great! Wonderful ideas and awesome to show new ways to use what you have.

[@SashaReade]

Ha ha dont worry when i looked down when i had just finished all the fronts i was thinking how awful they looked. But i was sure they were going to look awesome when done and Im pretty darn happy with them!

[@hallöchen9091]

I am so happy for you! Congratulations!!! 👏😃🎉🤗

[@SashaReade]

Thank you so much Brendaelaine

[@SashaReade]

Thank you so much Jen :)

[@jacal6648]

Wow great hack with the blue tack I was looking for a sticky pick up tool but felt they were too expensive for what they are and as I already have the ball enders for curling flowers I'm now going to give the blue tack a go thank you p.s love the simplicity of inking your own back ground saves paying out for designer card stock great hacks

[@divajain8957]

Lovely vision to create something really pretty from what looked like a really random starting point. Congrats on quitting your part time job, hope it all goes really well for you. Believe that you have a bright crafting future ahead.

[@vickiburow7560]

I wasn’t sure when you started, but love how it turned out! And congratulations on your promotion to your own business!!

[@elizabethturnbull1537]

Hi Sasha, another enjoyable video, great looking cards, good luck on your new venture! Children being on tablets takes on a new meaning these days compared to many years ago 😊. Don’t do Facebook, but look forward to your KZbin channel each week, take care. Regards.

[@SashaReade]

ha ha yes someone else pointed out my use of Tablets, oh dear. They were most definitely on ipads and not pills! ha ha

[@rachelrogers7064]

Congrats on starting up your own business soon. I was wondering when you were going to start your own business glad to see you a bit more

[@SashaReade]

I cant wait to be full time self employed!

[@meganiello6336]

Congrats on becoming your own boss, that's great! I have to turn my paper almost completely sideways to write or craft too and no I don't know why!

[@SashaReade]

Ha ha it's so odd isnt it. I do it all the time and no idea why

[@roden70]

It has to do with the ability of your wrist joint to turn. Most people do better with tilting the page because our wrist our rather stiff joints. Not like a shoulder or hip with a rotating ability.

[@jbroseann1]

Well..........im soooo pleased i carried on watching. Your amazing 👏. Btw have got to say this - i think the way you say ' Saturday ' is just so sweet. Thanks so much for another fantastic video x

[@SashaReade]

ha ha, do i say it weird? Thank you so much for watching

[@SashaReade]

Yay! Amazing! Make sure to tag me, im so pants on instagram and never have a clue what im doing. I noticed this morning you did a little video on your haul from Tonic, must watch!

[@chrisreinhart5072]

I was really thinking this was going to be a flop, but WOW, I love your striped backgrounds!!! Also would be good to use several brushes of different widths and watercolors. Cute cards. Congrats on your decision to craft full time.

[@SashaReade]

Ha ha totally! That's why i put the little message on the screen because it looked utter rubbish at one point. But the end it's really fun and all comes together

[@Emilie19614]

Great video to end my Saturday night. Thank you

[@SashaReade]

Thank you

[@dianasanner3669]

Thank you Diana

[@whiteherondesigns]

Congratulations, I'm thrilled that you are able to give up your 'day job', which is great for you, but even better for us, as we get more videos. I will have to watch your 'live' on catch up as I'll be at my day job 😠!! X

[@janetgerstein1644]

Another fun idea.

[@subigland5600]

As I have a small craft room I only have mainly dew drop ink pads or cubes I store them in a make up clear draw so I can see the colour without scramble through, I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos once you've retired lol 🤣 xx

[@SashaReade]

Ha ha, retired, love it!

[@franciscavanbochove2465]

It is so amazing to me how you can craft so beautiful and so quick 🥰. Congratulations on being able to quit your job. I am so amazed you earn so much by doing these videos. I am so happy for you and proud too 🥰. Enjoy your glass of wine and have a wonderfull weekend. I don’t drink wine, because I am allergic to sulphite, But I love a cup of hot choco in the evening, cheers!

[@SashaReade]

Thank you Cis :) I will chat with you if you like on how the income all adds up and comes together :) Im so crazy happy ive reached this point! Hope you enjoyed your hot chocolate :)

[@bonnieisabelle3641]

I have to turn my paper like that when I write and do things like that because it was drilled into me at a young age when being taught penmanship by the nuns. Congrats on the move to self employment!!

[@raneydaycrafting]

Great idea and thank you have a good weekend and congratulations on you utube full time plan x

[@SashaReade]

Lots of luck! 😘☘️☘️☘️

[@SashaReade]

Thank you

[@sarahwilks2413]

Congratulations on you news, you must be so excited. When you said your kids were on tablets I thought you had medicated them to get some peace and quiet, my second thought was would that work on husband's too? Lol jk, my hubby is very indulgent of my crafting. Love your makes as always x

[@SashaReade]

ha ha ha i hadnt thought of that! Such a common word to use over here for an ipad! So funny. No, dont worry, i dont drug my family to make time to craft ha ha

[@Bink808]

Congratulations Sasha, not only have you created all the amazing tutorials you've also crafted your dream job. WTG!!!

[@SashaReade]

Totally! I couldnt be happier! So excited to just work for me

[@samanthanyenye1171]

Thanks for another great KZbin video..I see your on craftstash and I'd love to come watch but it has yep different times. It has 12.30 and then it says 2.00pm. I am in the UK so what time are you on please xx.

[@kezthefam8263]

Hi Sasha I love this idea you’re a clever chicky !! I know it’s been awhile since you made this video but I really want to know if I can buy the crystal gem case with the containers it’s the best ? !!

[@dianearnes6666]

I also have to have paper like you do also.

[@SashaReade]

It's not difficult to create a pile that big is it...

[@sandrawijckmans4306]

Those are verry pretty again 🤪

[@SashaReade]

Thank you! They were looking a right mess at the start ha ha

[@slektektiv]

I always have to have what ever I am writing or drawing on at an angle too! Even my iPad when I draw in Procreate! 😁 I believe it has to do with the way I was taught to write in school, to ”assure” my handwriting sloped the right way, and then it’s just been a habit ever since :) I actually to this day have a pretty nice handwriting, so it really ”worked” in that sense, but it makes no sense at all for drawing 😂 Even when I write upright letters, i have the paper at an angle 🙄😁

[@slektektiv]

Seems I assumed right: teachhandwriting.co.uk/paper-position-for-comfortable-handwriting.html

[@deeshah6250]

OMG. Congratulations on your achievement. It is always nice to have flexibility. I cant wait to see more cards from you. I really do enjoy your videos

[@julieharris1830]

Could you let me know where you got your large pencil case from please? 😊

[@SashaReade]

So sorry! I knew i would forget something! I got it from Amazon: Owl Pencil case: amzn.to/3u2cudj

[@SimplifytoPeace]

I have a question, where did you get your sequins holder box?

[@SashaReade]

Ahhh, yes.... I couldnt link it because it was discontinued. Alina Crafts used to sell it but im afraid she doesnt any more :(

[@SimplifytoPeace]

Thank you for your response. It’s totally fine, I will keep looking

[@jacquiericard5190]

CONGRATULATIONS on your resignation to start building your business into a grand achievement 🤑🤑🤑
