How to create handmade cards quicker!

[@patcontant9284]

It’s nice to see you stamping without using a stamping aid. The old fashioned way! Beautiful cards!

[@deskjockie4948]

I find that the hardest part of making a card is deciding on the theme, color, style, and sentiment. Once those decisions are made, the actual execution of putting it together goes fast. I make most of my cards for particular people, so the sentiment is very specific to them and to the occasion. There are so many styles (A2, A7, portrait or landscape orientation, easel, pop-up, box, z-fold, etc.) and so many themes (floral, balloons, sports, country and western, modern/abstract, etc.), it takes a while to make a decision. I find it helpful to go to Pinterest or KZbin for ideas, and your channel is one that I really enjoy. Thanks for some great ideas!

[@charbrown2787]

I totally agree-takes me so long to design a card-will have to try this-thanks

[@hellobeautiful9226]

[@evelynrauseo467]

My fav is the peach. Nice designs. TFS

[@valgrant3303]

Gorgeous Dena. Can't wait to try these designs. You make them look so simple to create. Thank you.

[@ryan1101232]

Had so much fun watching this video.

[@ronniegraeme7184]

I have the hardest time making a bow. I watched you make the bow on the second card. Wow. Now I just have to practice, practice, practice. Thank you so much. Its the best and easies bow I have seen.

[@donnaconaway9368]

What a great idea for gluing on more intricate die cuts!! I can easily make a sponge like that! The entire die cut gets glue that way without it oozing out. I love having quick card ideas. I usually spend quite a bit of time on my cards, but when pressed for time this design with your different embellishments would definitely simplify things.

[@elvamcnurlin5736]

I appreciate you showing the examples and sharing your tips. Thank you,

[@arlenebuehler712]

I loved your four cards you did. Very pretty. Arlene from Port Orchard, Washington.

[@sharonb.7867]

Dena love love love your cards! You mentioned robotics, my daughter was invited to sing the national anthem as the intro at a robotics event in our town (last weekend). Super proud momma here! I am sure it makes your heart happy for your robotics people to do well! Happy card making!!

[@rozo4403]

The classes are amazing! I have made more cards since starting the monthly Facebook class than I had in months!

[@TheCreativityCave]

Oh that just makes my heart happy! Thanks or sharing!

[@MsJet1]

Just what I needed! A faster way to make cards!

[@ann-mariepare3784]

I just love your classes even when the colors and not the ones I love the most, it’s always gorgeous and stunning. Thank you Dena

[@RobertasArtisticAdventures]

Great cards and layout designs, Dena! TFS!

[@beverlymeaker7566]

Awesome cards, Deena!!!! I enjoy watching your videos so much.

[@Taitcreates639]

Dena, you definitely have a Midas touch to any cards you create. Everything is so well balanced and beyond beautiful. Thinking about taking your class but my new printer won’t hook up to my Apple table which is also new from Christmas. Yes, I’m a lucky girl. Tyfs. Hugz!

[@TheCreativityCave]

I don't think you'll need the printer for class! But, yes, you are a lucky girl! ;)

[@created2bless322]

How amazing!!! You are so talented and love your IMAGINATION when it comes to creating your cards. Thank you for sharing a great layout.

[@wendymartindale-bergene6120]

Great cards! Thanks Dena.

[@TenOhNine]

What kind of adhesive are you using in the first card example? The 'hello, dear friend' card when you are adding the tiny, intricate die cut leaves and flowers... I looked through all your supplies, and checked the links, but still couldn't seem to find a link for that roll of adhesive that you use. Thanks so much!

[@kaycure8629]

Glue dots. JoAnn or Michaels

[@lynnbitter494]

Amazing, as always!! Thanks for always bringing inspiration and a smile to my day! 💕🌷🙂

[@janehdu]

Your Hello card is stunning.

[@janetmuir6011]

Thank you for the video and cards, love your colours.

[@manumeier7784]

Super tolle Ideen und super simpel. ..Danke für die Insperationen! !!

[@mzfromok8057]

Very pretty cards!

[@patcontant9284]

Funny...when you said you were going to stamp it again, I held my breath. I thought you were going to actually stamp over top of the first image. I am amazed at how many stampers don’t use the hyped up Misti. I actually made a replica and never use it. I’ve pretty much have mastered stamping after making cards for over 20 yrs. Getting back to your cards...beautiful!

[@TheCreativityCave]

Hi Pat, While I don't know exactly which card you are referring to since this video is almost a year old, using a Stamp Positioner like our Stamparatus is great when you start with it. I love my stamparatus, but only use it for specific situations in my stamping (I am to lazy to use it for everything) and so that doesn't allow you to "restamp" unless you start with it. I, too, agree, that after over 20 years of stamping, I am pretty good, and don't have much trouble. I do find that my Stamparatus is a very valuable tool, but, like I said, just for very specific things....

[@crafting_with_carrie]

I've never seen that method of sponging adhesive! Love it.

[@eileenmoore7725]

The cards are very pretty.

[@kayvallance9560]

at 15:20 - how did you tie that bow ???? it's just about perfect and you made it look SO easy!!!

[@TheCreativityCave]

I love all the cards, but how about someone who is just beginning and doesnt have all the stamps and punches? Also, how do you do the inside part?

[@ThisIsMeTinnaMarie]

Love the designs. But: did I get that right? Instead of referring to card sketches, refer to sample cards instead?

[@rebeccabullock1960]

Very nice, thanks Denna

[@Calicokate348]

To take the classes will I need a die cut machine and the stamps you use?

[@GinaLovestocraft]

Beautiful ❤️❤️

[@PollyPatriot]

Thank you

Great video!

[@maraca5797]

Hi Dena! Beautiful cards as usual. Is their a list of needed items for these classes? Thanks.

[@TheCreativityCave]

No--they are designed to be done with whatever you have. I share lots of ideas, but you can use anything to make your projects.

[@dianenugent3666]

What do you do when your blending marker goes dry? I mean completely dry. Thanks Dena

[@TheCreativityCave]

Diane Nugent if you’ve had it for a while, I’d purchase a new one. If it is less than 90 days, I’d contact your demo to get a replacement.

[@nickeyabrahams4557]
