So glad the younger generation has found out how we used all she said and used we did years ago good jobthank

[@MaryLindauer]

Great ideas. It also works with an adhesive sheet with cardstock and then run it though an embossing folder. It really seals the material to the cardstock & looks fabulous. ❤

[@joycebutler1553]

I loved the blue and green ones but really almost all equally. Would be a great gift set for someone. Love the technique as well that I can try with other things.

[@suzanneboily5224]

Amazing works!

[@sisterbobbi]

I remember the pellon wonder under from using it for crafts in the 80s.

[@mnpepsi5594]

I love the fabric cards

[@deborahsnyder9199]

Very Nice. Thanks

[@laurag8641]

I’ve made a few cards using card stock and fabric on my sewing machine. Love what you do with wonder under which I have a whole bolt of it! Think I will give your method a try! Thank you for sharing your craft. All these cards are so cute!

[@sylntweety]

Beautiful card...so much fun! I keep a Quilter's Cut'n Press on my craft table 24/7 and can't wait to start making cards with fabric. 😃

[@shirleyhoeppner5693]

Love this!I have lots of fabric, gonna have fun😊

[@sharonmiller-kocis1156]

Absolutely beautiful like you thank you....

[@carolcolclough4650]

and here I always thoughtthought I invented this, ha ha! Thank you for the detailed directions, very concise.

[@brendadamon3606]

I used this technique for my Christmas cards this year.

[@maryf1838]

Beautiful. My daughter is a quilter and I always tell her I wish they made paper like the Beautiful fabrics. Well now here we are. Thank you!

[@dorindavaughn4870]

WOW! Very clever.

[@SherryKees]

I love this card

[@gretchendeornelas6856]

Thank you for this video.. This is something I defintely want to try! Hope I can find such beautiful fabric.

[@junegamble2148]

Really like this technique.

[@carolunderwood5727]

Like this technique!

[@pearlegates7079]

I have the exact same iron. I was debating buying a new one, but it still works great. Thanks for the demo!!!

[@junek8574]

Beautiful. On your bee card I would have fussy cut the beehive out and put dimensionals behind it and put it on the card. I love all your ideas. You can also use Modge podge to adhere fabric to card stock. Put modge podge on card stock thick, let dry completely. Then iron on your fabric. 😊

[@lynnevans1257]

Love these!!!

[@sandianderson1500]

What beautiful cards, Brandy. Such a clever way of making a card!

[@mariannepahssen4926]

Love your ideas.WOW

[@hopewilkes74]

Glad to come across your video. Use to do this and forgot how cool. Thanks!!!

[@cyndinielsen972]

This reminds me of what I did 25 yrs ago to make my own paper bags. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@judidempton5096]

Awesome!

[@stellaolejar9007]

Wow - like the saying goes ‘What’s old is new again’. I recall first making these type of cards with fabric about 21 years ago. Brandy these cards are beautiful.

[@user-mk1pc5hk5p]

You've opened up Pandora's box for me! This just gives us endless possibilities for future cards. I'm definitely checking out the video for the plate.

[@carolanderson5784]

That is so cool.

[@lauramartin7300]

I kinda forgot about adding fabric to cards. I used to do a lot of quilting and taught classes. I have A LOT of fabric. Have to add this to my list of "TO DO" . This is a good use to use a FAT QUARTERS of material, and they are cheap to get. You can have a lot of choices too. Thanks for sharing.

[@barbhenning4068]

Great idea. Will make some.

[@dlkessler4594]

Oh Brandy...Dang CUTE cards!!!!!!!!!! I love them! You found some really beautiful fabrics! Amazing! I'll have to give this a try...I know some friends who will really appreciate and enjoy receiving them! Thanks SO much for sharing this! Blessings!

[@LisaDash-sk8on]

Absolutely beautiful using fabric. Clever idea to dress up a card for any occasion 👍

[@brandyscards]

Thank you Lisa!!

[@patriciasimmel1602]

Just as beautiful as you are Brandy. Thank you for this awesome video!

[@carolnicholson2032]

So pretty. I do the fabric on cards then emboss it before adding it to the front of my card.

[@user-zv3nk8st8r]

These cards are actually beautiful! I have loads of Christmas fabric so I see some gift cards in my future.

[@rosemarieschmidt2423]

OMG! The leaf cards are AMAZINGLY AMAZING! What a wonderful gift!

[@sandracedar368]

I love how you showed the entire process so clearly. I have heard of the fabric cards, but I wasn’t aware of how they were made. They are beautiful! Thank you for such a great tutorial. My first visit. Looking forward to my next, etc. Merry Christmas🫶🎄

[@fastquilter600]

Save the removed backing paper and it will be a protection for your ironing board under the envelope flap.

[@cindymitchell7060]

I was just going to suggest this but thought I would read the comments first. 😊

[@raykathyvarga4355]

I like the cards with the sunflowers where the flower is in full view. Then adding the sentiment that is not covering any of the focal flower. I have purchased plates covered in decorative fabric at a craft show many, many years ago. As you say, there are so many good choices at the fabric store to use for this type of project. But for me, I prefer using designer paper for my cards. But if I saw these at a craft show, I might be tempted to buy some of the fabric cards or plates!

[@patriciavidrio3617]

Oh my, so beautiful! I missed the live but I watched the replay. I have some Christmas fabric that would look great as a card. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@rosemarieschmidt2423]

You are always amazing at creating beautiful projects! Love all the projects!

[@Craftygirl50]

I love your card. What a great idea to use fabric on cards and plates. I will definitely try this at some point

[@barbarawren4731]

What a Gorgeous array of cards❣️ I Love, Love them and adding fabric makes them very unique! Thank you so much…❤

[@suzannedepies7866]

Beautiful cards! Never thought of using fabric, fantastic ideas!

[@bonniewyke9396]

Brandy, great video. I made cards when you did a video 3 years ago, using fabric on cards. Love all the fabrics you used. I made 3 of the fabric backed plates and greeting cards to match. Thank you for the great ideas.

[@mariaalicedrummond4885]

Love! Love and Love it! Great idea! Thanks again Brandy!

[@janewalker9650]

Good evening. Going to watch on tv. Grandma jane

[@virginiaong8757]

❤❤❤

[@vasanthalucky5388]

This is just fantastic work. I love it!

[@juliacrane6042]

So many great ideas and comments. I used Wonder Under since the 70's when I had a fabric store. I use a sandwich of Parchment baking paper whenever I use an iron on any Freezer paper, wax paper, napkins etc. Nothing sticks to it. Then it doesn't get glue on my ironing board or iron. I plan to try Wonder Under on mesh fabric next. I am tired of going outside to spray adhesive on my cardstock for these and never know how well they are going to hold or dry.

[@ChristineWolcott-uc5hs]

I love the idea of using fabric for making cards, but did not know where to start. Absolutely beautiful cards. Thank you so much!

[@annettedepete4314]

Absolutely a fun video. The papers are beautiful. Thanks for the great tips.🌴💕🎄

[@patriciawilson4135]

I love this idea and a great card to give someone that sews and does needle crafts. Thanks for showing us how to do this.

[@tinakovacs327]

Love the different ideals about using fabric on your cards. Going to have to try it.

[@idzzin4all]

Making these as gift sets is a great idea! Love it!

[@cathyveverka8094]

TFS this great technique to use fabric on cards & envelopes! 😊 As I quilt & stamp, this is another great crafting crossover!! They make applique pressing sheets I place under & over anything with fusible adhesive that I'm pressing 😊

[@pattiemoss2287]

Thank you for this video! I was hoping you could make cards with fabric! I am very new to card making! My daughter lives in Concord! If you do another crafting weekend there (or any day) again, I would love to be notified! She would enjoy it too!

[@camilleanzelmo6275]

Thank you so much for the ideas. I already did six plates with material now I just have to make the cards. I really appreciate all your hints.

[@HesterKelley]

Thanks for the reminder of how to do the cards. I haven't done those for awhile and had almost forgot how to do them. So thanks for the reminder! I also love the plates. I had to order mine online ( the store didn't have any). I've made 12 of them. Plus I made a label for the back to remind them of how to take care of the plates. Thanks again.

[@aliciakey9333]

very entertaining watching you discuss the fusible! I'm a quilter so it's an everyday thing for me but I'd never thought of trying to tell someone who'd never used it before all about it! The cards are awesome, love the idea of making a set as a gift. You might like to get a wool ironing pad to have handy with your craft iron rather than the sleeve board. It lies flat on your counter & comes in MANY sizes ex 8"x8" and up. Enjoyed your video. I'll go find the plate one now!

[@cathynuytten798]

I was thinking the same thing with the wool pressing mat. It would be much easier and FLATTER.

[@stampinsimplywithmaria]

This is so much fun to use fabric in our card making! Oh, the possibilities🥰🤩

[@carolm-c9692]

Stunning!❤

[@barbaraalexander3456]

you can use freezer paper under material and put a piece over the material and wonderpaper. that way it will not get on iron or your table or ironing board.

[@sherylefagan5132]

Oh Brandy I think you’re the most wonderful demonstrator out there. I love those cards I watch that first video with the animals when you did that years ago and I’ve been making fabric cards ever cents and I’ve been using napkins also in the same way almost in the same way, thank you for all your cleverness and for you passing it on and to remind us that how awesome you are have a very merry Christmas

[@wendywoodhouse8533]

Love this idea Brandy thank you xxx

[@debraopferbeck5810]

Just love this idea!

[@janabetts7993]

What a beautiful card idea! I have lots of fabric scraps in my craft room left over from sewing face masks during Covid I can use for this technique.

[@lashawnmoorehouse6430]

You can use parchment paper to keep pellon from getting on anything.

[@ginnypream8837]

Cards and plates are amazing!!!

[@janewalker9650]

You can use dies to cut shapes on the fabric also. Grandma jane

[@brandyscards]

Hi Grandma Jane, I love that idea too!! I might give that a go on my next video. I love it so much but I love you more!!! Big Hugs

[@beverlypope7179]

Great ways to make other Christmas presents! TFS!

[@momoclangford4673]

Wow! Fun way to do cards. ❤

[@gwencooper7023]

Absolutely love this. Gorgeous. Thanks!

[@CreativelyChallenged]

Thar is such a beautiful fabric!! These are amazing; I have to get organized with my SU first before I can start other projects.

[@susanhughes1417]

I am amazed by this technique I can't wait to try it.

[@annmarielightner5100]

This is amazing!!! I can’t wait to try it. Thank you Brandy

[@joannesnowaert5106]

I made some of the plates you did they turned out really pretty. I’m going to use them for treats for some friends. Thank you so much for showing us How to do that. I love watching all your videos.

[@barbarabowen3758]

Beautiful cards!

[@wendycarr1828]

[@judyernst-hopp795]

Enjoyed this video as well as all of your videos. Thanks for sharing Brandy. Judy from Apex, NC

[@marykatherineknipp8735]

Wow, thank you so much for sharing . I've got lots of fabric, anxious to try out a new craft. Blessings.

[@ethelrobinson6236]

Beautiful cards Brandy looks like fun

[@theresagoodletson8372]

thanks Brandy! cool technique.

[@bevp7838]

I’ve had this idea in mind for a while, but wasn’t sure how to marry the paper to my fabric. I totally forgot about interfacing!!! Thanks! Much easier than trying to decoupage it to cardstock ( which is what I was thinking about trying).

[@deb1623]

Many of us sew and have left over scrap fabric and this is a great use for it. I tried felt and it works also.

[@AcquanettaLivingston]

That is fantastic! I will definitely try this technique. Thanks a bunch!

[@beckiwhite7507]

Oh, Brandi this is so cute. What a great tip you shared, I love this. I am gonna have to find some fabric and try this out. Thanks so much for sharing
