Kristina you get prettier everyday.....it is always so fun to watch you work. I loved these shaker cards as they are different and delicate. I think it is the choice of colors and just your style. Very pretty and magical..... I may get that fuse tool. I think it seems like a good way to do these cards and still put them into the mail....................pat

[@slidewithme]

Key Kristina, just wanted to mention that I love the new video format where we have a short little into with your face at the beginning. It really feels more personal and your makeup is always impeccable!

[@saraspear2723]

I love when we get to see the face of crafty youtubers who we normally only see their hands. Your hair is beautiful, love the color.

[@sallygreiner9939]

I love that you share your thought process in adjusting ideas that aren’t working. I often hit that wall and STOP. 😔, which explains why I have many unfinished cards and projects. Your videos are super helpful and inspiring. Thank you!!

[@betsyturek4404]

Really like the face to face intro first on the video. Additionally thanks for allowing us to see your creative process and sharing your sketches.

[@mrscms831]

Gotta Love the Bling!! I like seeing your happy face in the intro to your video.

[@carolemitchell9548]

I loved the cards. Loved seeing you at the beginning. Hope you do more of you on your intro.

[@verblu8507]

Each card is amazing Kristina! Gorgeous! Thanks for your tutorial! God bless!!

[@nancyalberghini7581]

Very cute cards Kristina and I have to say I love your new look! Beautiful!

[@pandywilson9076]

Love the idea of a whole card front shaker Card. Now I think I'm gonna have to have a fuse tool. Love your work As always.

[@juliebusch6839]

So nice to see you on camera! You look beautiful!

[@pattimcdowell6242]

Hello Gorgeous! Thanks for a refresher on shakers. I need to pull out my lonely fuse tool!

[@mercedesg3733]

Love the card ideas and your new look. That’s for always sharing such great ideas.

[@PEPSIKERR]

I love how you worked around the oops party and reworked to make it work. Your cards are gorgeous. Thanks Kristina for another great video.

[@janisrichardson6026]

Thanks for the great tips today. I am glad someone else has the odd design glitch once in a while. Many thanks.

[@deniseferguson8589]

Thanks Kristina! What great tips and beautiful backgrounds! I'll look at my little stamps sets in a different way now! And, I am loving you eyebrows! :)

[@slyseyes]

I like how you showed us a way to make a needed change part way through a project. Loved both of these cards. I'm a total flip flop fan so I may have to buy the stamps and dies.

[@Csoery]

The one with the flip flops turned out great :) Super cute!

[@kathycook6905]

You look fantastic! Missed you lately. Need more videos and love your live videos! More more more!!!

[@jdghormley]

Loved the ideas and use of the fuse tool. I must also add you look radiant!

[@JessicaHessjessanotherhess]

I’m glad to see you on camera more. Also I’m glad to see someone use the fuse tool. I haven’t seen it being used in awhile and it seems like something that had so many possibilities.

[@ScrappinBellaRose]

So adorable I had to go grab these stamp sets and found a few other goodies too. Thanks for sharing

[@Edwardsbebikeks]

Love your new method of you talking in front of the camera! 👌🏼😀

[@teresamedeirosdesigns]

I love your new intro and outra as well! You look stunning! I really like your cards and creating a shaker using the fuse tool. Cool idea!

[@carolestrawn8755]

I just came back to this video two years later. I love flip-flop cards and really need to make one of these. I did buy the fuse tool but haven't used it as much as I should have. I'm going to try one of the full coverage shaker cards. These are both so pretty.

[@vanessadumesnil8148]

I love these!! So beautiful! Thanks for sharing

[@sallycain3716]

You look fabulous! Love the cards and the use of the fuse tool. I have been umming and ahhing about getting one.

[@charleneluedtke5751]

What a great tutorial - I LOVE this idea of yours! Thank you Kristina!!

[@fratinbo]

So pretty, Kristina! You really want me to pull out my fuse tool I didn‘t use for a long time 🙈😅 and it‘s totally lovely to see your face in front of the camera 😍💖

[@simon.hurley]

I love how both of the cards turned out and seeing your creative process as you solved the problems! :)

[@SammiJarrad]

You really stepped up your intro & outro. I like it. You look beautiful!! I really like these card ideas. 😁 thanks for sharing. 💜👍🏻💌

[@cherylrobertson5629]

Love seeing you in both the beginning and end of your video. Great cards too!

[@ThePaperCastle]

Cute cards!! And reassuring to know that some of your ideas don't work out and you have to change things up. I've been so busy that I haven't watched many card videos at all in the past 6 months. I've missed them!! Love that you used the Fuse tool. I need to get mine out and play with it. TFW, Heather

[@meghaathnikar5445]

So pretty two sequin cards💛💙

[@bettywarring3681]

I love that we get to see you! I think that makes the video! Love that you used the fuse tool. I forget I have it sometimes.

[@joyfulldj]

This is fun as special gift tag. you can do all kind of embellishments in it: like you see currently in pocket neckles ideas. Make a gift more personal.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Cute cards. I need to dig out my fuse tool and use it again. And of course, I need to look at all my small die sets. Thanks for sharing.

[@mariehoney31]

Kristina, I love your new video look! It's so nice to see your pretty, smiling face at the beginning and end of the video content. Awesome cards too! 😀💖

[@dianequinlan502]

I really like the process. Lots of times, I feel like my cards don’t turn out so perfect.....but I am wondering if they weren’t so perfect at all! The card is edited.....perhaps. That’s ok, but some days I enjoy seeing the good, bad and ugly! Lol I like not feeling like I am not the only one whose cards don’t look so pretty at the end of filming. Like I said before, I also itting down and looking at the pretty cards appear at the end! Thanks for all you share!

[@kikidodson4c4l51]

Beautiful! Tip for the fuse tool and the round shaker. Try using the next size down circle die as a guide so going around is smoother. Or follow the inside of the die you used to cut the circle. Thanks for a nice tutorial!

[@cristinaljones]

Good idea!! Thanks for the tip. I dont think I could do a circle without going in and out of the cirle!

[@JTCreates808]

Love the new intro and outro... and of course the cards! Absolutely gorgeous!

[@sylviag3576]

Everyone has told you how lovely you look, it's true. But your talents are amazing also. I know I have small stamps that are cute, I usually end up stamping an envelope or the inside of the card. Like so many, I'm going to dig out my fuse tool. Have a happy and blessed day.

[@Erikantroy]

I haven't used my Fuse tool in a long time, so this is good motivation to pull it out again! I enjoy hearing how you thought through your process. Lovely cards!

[@rmhuff]

I love the intro & outro also! I also like they you are including "OOOPs!" moments. It really shows the thought process and that it doesn't go smoothly even for those who inspire us. Great job!!

[@9critterchris877]

I absolutely love the full size shaker card. It is so pretty. Thank you for these inspirational ideas!

[@MichaelBarcusGray]

As a mermaid, I completely love these cards and that sequin pack!

[@dianerasmussen4997]

Love these shaker cards. Need to bring out my fuse tool, forgot all about it! Thank You!

[@chrismarfal]

I love your new hair! Gorgeous!

[@trudievick2359]

Loved this card. Such clever ideas. Thanks for sharing.

[@KathyaKalinine]

Love your new intro and trailer at the end! You look amazing and it’s fun to see something different on your channel. I vote that you keep doing this! 👍🏻😊

[@alwaysCHItee]

I ❤️ seeing you in front of the camera. These cards are awesome.

[@ghlmk5931]

I really like that you appear at the beginning and end. Your hair looks great, btw. Thanks for sharing your process. I have the Fuse tool but I forget about it. Beautiful cards!

[@Rockymtnbloom]

I loved the idea of the flip flops in the shaker pouch! What a creative idea! I wonder if a solution to making the pouch loose enough for movement inside would be to slip a double thick frame cut inside the pouch before filling and sealing. Also perhaps embossing the flip flops with a clear coating might help.

[@vlynd2006]

Thanks for the "like" button reminder, sometimes I forget...😮

[@pambotter365]

Beautiful cards. I do have small stamps and I will be using your technique for sure. TFS!

[@donnadacy5876]

Love how these turned out. Love my fuse tool. So glad to see how you were able to change your design as I do that all the time. Great tutorial. TFS

[@trealkid007]

I use a piece of glass from a picture frame. I put masking tape the edges and use this for my fusing. Loved your cards.

[@allysonberry8708]

As I watched this video it occurred to me that a way to close the circle might be a little easier if you used a smaller circle die as your guide for your fuse tool. Might be worth trying. Love your problem solving ideas.

[@Mad_Rian]

You always look great and you look especially gorgeous in this vid. oh yeah, the cards look good too! 😉 I like that you included footage of things that didn't work out.

[@hiltp1008]

So pretty love the sequins mixed in with those ink colors FABULOUS ! Off the subject , but jus’ had to say, Love your new “do” too. Looks like you were on the beach too!🤙🏼

[@rachelcampbell7455]

You looks stunning!!! I love what you do with stamps and everything you make. I blame you for my new obsession 😂

[@peggysuezz]

Really appreciate these tips but most of all I think, the fact that you redirect creatively in the middle of the process too.

[@LynneWilliams101]

Beautiful cards and great words of wisdom with using small stamps. :)

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

WOWSER, YOU ARE GORGEOUS MISS KRISTINA!!! I love the whole new way you’re doing kwernerdesign.com videos!!! The cards are both wonderful, the colors you used are very beachy (new word)! Thanks for sharing in a whole new way my dear, great job, as usual, HUGS!!!

[@irener8661]

I love seeing you on camera

[@ElleLizzyMay]

I love your hair! It suits you with the highlights. I always love your videos, TFS your awesomeness!

[@suzannekauffman6088]

Cute card ideas. Love the hair!

[@createwithpamela]

Beautiful cards! I'm in Ireland & don't have access to those new stamps, but thanks for sharing your tips!

[@Luuve]

I absolutely love you in front of the camera! You look so pretty. Thank you so a quick intro! 😍

[@xSaucySirenx]

Been watching you for awhile and this is the first time I’ve ever seen your face. You are beautiful! Glad I get to put a face to the voice. 🙂

[@yoko7682]

Anyone who doesn’t have an acrylic block for the stamps can use a piece of plastic on the stamp and a heavy book . Tried it ,works great !

[@mzp6620]

Thanks for all of the tips, I do have quite a few stamps that are quite small. And yes, you are right--what do I do with them?! ha I really liked your second card as well, that's cool having the whole front be a shaker!

[@Beckyp1601]

Awesome cards! I really like your set up at the beginning & ending of your tutorials 😀

[@PapercraftsbyCindyellen]

you are a very good teacher. thank you.

[@lenora43]

I love these card.

[@teresadoyle1396]

These are so sweet Kristina. I have a stack of backgrounds I have been making lately and wasn't sure what I wanted to do with them. This is a great way to use a few of them up.

[@MakerandDreamer]

Thanks nice cards. I have so many little stamp sets never thought of using them this way. BTW I use my powder tool on small die cut pcs in my shaker so they don’t stick together. Thanks again ❤️

[@JuSt_JeSs_222]

Love this video! I love seeing you here and there. You’re so pretty 💓 love the sequins for those cards!!

[@amehobby9421]

So beautiful

[@1Stacey4me]

I know this has nothing to do with your cards, but your brows look great (I mean overall you look good, but I was drawn to your brows, lol). The cards are awesome too as usual, I love shakers!

[@bevacole]

Ditto on what you said Samantha Jarrad. Now I need a fuse tool. That is very handy to have for shaker cards .Bev (7/30/2018)

[@racheljolley26352]

Oh your beautiful hair! Love the cards and your tips about small stamps, very helpful thank you.

[@pinkbunkadoo]

Great ideas! I’m gonna give it a go myself. BTW alcohol inks stained my Ranger craft mat.

[@nancymac2445]

Beautiful cards! You used 2 of my favorite things: small stamps and shakers! I always enjoy watching your vids and this one is no exception. (BTW: Your makeup, hair, and blouse color are especially pretty in this video!)

[@christopherlokan8634]

I really like this newer style of video from you :). Very helpful video as usual. Thanks so much!

[@shellyrene5708]

Adorable cards! I’ve seen some Crafter’s glue certain elements inside the card to keep them visible which might work the next time you want to include elements such as your flip flops 🤗

[@johnrichard2385]

Hi Kristina. I really enjoyed watching this tutorial because I have the We R Memory Keepers fuse tool, but I forget I have it. Beautiful cards it’s hard for me to choose a favorite. However, I have been going crazy over the ocean colors lately. Thank you for all you do for all of us, it is always greatly appreciated. Most sincerely, Katz Baugh

[@CouzCat]

TFS. I really like the new look without glasses.

[@michellefay8555]

Beautiful

[@thefoxieroxie]

A fuse tool is still on my list of things to get. I'm digging the new outtro by the way

[@wendyodell356]

Wound up being 2 really cute and clever cards. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

[@DuluthTW]

Cute. I really adore the flip-flop card. Thanks for sharing!

[@ItsMujika]

Wow! I didn't notice you. You're so beautiful. 😍 nice hair.
