Coordinating Die Cut Windows

[@jonieisenberg2794]

WOW, Jennifer, what an awesome technique. You make it look easy, but I know how long each of the steps takes. The cards are absolutely beautiful. HUGS to Lila!!! I hope Santa has already started getting her gifts together, because she deserves so much.

[@Vgudorf]

I love the way your brain works! Thank you for doing the problem solving for us so that don’t have to experience the headaches of trial and error, but instead can move straight to the fun of making. I’m in this instance thinking about the brilliance of using the vellum to accurately align the dies to the stamped images for the dimensional element of the card. Who else so easily figures out how to do these things? Thank you, Jennifer!

[@barbsdee3831]

I’ve come back to watch this again, they are such beautiful cards and I love the colours. Thank you Jennifer 😘

[@fabcstlls]

I have never ever done a card, i am on college and when I am stressed I watch your videos, card making is so relaxing!

[@chunkybird1241]

Its always interesting to see how many different ways we can create the same look/technique. When I make these, I stamp onto both cards, and use that as the guide when die cutting, knowing that its in exactly the same place. Thanks for sharing your way too! :)

[@bethhansen821]

You have presented yet another fabulous way to create an exquisite card! Love the metallic colors. I love the idea of using the vellum to see where to place the dies. You always inspire!!

[@leenewton5872]

That does look like it must be a beautiful set since even one of the layers is so gorgeous. Yet another new technique and so appealing. Thank you so much for showing us how to do it and how wonderful it can look

[@lmmazzola]

Beautiful cards Jennifer. I love how you show us so many ways to use our stamps and dies to achieve different looks. Love those metallic powders!!

[@lindagorun4161]

These cards are truly stunning with the addition of those metallic colors. I’ve blended powders before when I did snowflakes ❄️ in varying colors. Turned out great. Thanks again for your fabulous vision snd sharing it with us.

[@lesliev7874]

Love the metallic and die cutting. They make for very elegant cards.

[@laurabuehler]

Perfect timing on teaching me this technique. As usual, I'm running behind in my Christmas cards, so I decided to use the same focal image on many of them & change them up by using different colors and sentiments because I try to make each card be unique. Now, you have given me a way to create even more variations on the cards that I'm rushing to complete. Thank you for sharing!

[@virtuallycolleen]

I love to see your engineering background in your creations. The efficient choice of using the vellum plus the dies to cut your images is brilliant. Thanks!

[@MarciaFellner]

These cards are gorgeous. The three colors you used were perfect compliments to each other. I will definitely try this technique soon.

[@bethpollock1350]

Hi Jennifer, OMGosh, OMGosh, OMGosh!!! Your talent absolutely boggles my mind! I've been making cards for quite a few years and never in my wildest dreams could I come up with the techniques you discover/create!! You rock my card making world my friend :D Hugs, hugs, and more hugs from snowy and brrrrr New Hampshire...

[@glenislyon22]

Wow!! They are absolutely beautiful. Love, love, love them. Thank you Jennifer.

[@juliel.2021]

Jennifer, that is so cool! It can be a card to use for so many occassions by just switching up the sentiment.

[@annihilator45]

Fabulous cards as always. I love the metallic rainbow. Thanks for another fantastic design technique 👏👏👏☺.

[@lindarauch3269]

Love how you used the stamps and dies. The cards are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.

[@jeannetrumbull5561]

Gorgeous as usual! You never cease to amaze me! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@racheljolley26352]

Absolutely stunning cards!! So elegant and expensive looking as well! Tfs

[@melstampz]

Gorgeous cards & your vellum trick is brilliant. You are a card engineer in such fascinating ways. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Gorgeous cards. Wow, your techniques have taught me so much and I’m looking at my dies and stamps in a whole new light. Thanks for sharing.

[@kristinamullen7433]

If you keep the stamps in the misti you can use a light ink to stamp onto the overlay and line the dies up that way. Just another idea for those who don't have vellum! Thanks for inspiring me Jennifer!

[@terryeggen1303]

Jennifer this is an amazing card. I would never have thought to use vellum to create the top overlay. You think of the coolest things.

[@honbun100]

You could use the Misti to stamp your image on both the card base and the panel. Emboss both and then cut the embossed image from the panel. You don’t need any vellum that way and you have a die cut embossed image left over for another card! The negative space on the panel from which you die cut the image should be in perfect position since you used the Misti

[@gingmcd]

Absolutely stunning cards !!!!!! You never cease to amaze me with your talent and skill and I so appreciate you sharing the techniques you come up with. Thank YOU so much !!!! I'm sure you'll be back with more video's but in the event I forget to post a comment, MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and YOURS !!!!!!!

[@junemoore8750]

Jennifer, these cards are beautiful! I will definitely try to make these cards. You are so creative! Thank you! 😊

[@jennifermcguireink]

Glad you like them!

[@kathyferguson7302]

Gorgeous cards Jennifer! I love all the shine! Thanks for sharing.

[@joycetarleton985]

BEAUTIFUL card-I can’t wait to try this! Thanks for working out all the kinks for us! You make it look so easy 😊

[@maggiebaxter610]

I love (LOVE, LOVE!!) these embossing powders from Altenew. Such rich and creamy results and by fading one color into another the results are absolutely gorgeous. I often wonder if you hear me talking to you through the screen?? lol My husband always hollers from the other room, asking if I'm talking to him. Nope, talking to Jennifer and her peeps. Haha Thanks for continuing to share and inspire....these would make a stunning set of note cards to give. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. ~HUGS~ #kindnessmatters

[@inthecraftroom9724]

Very beautiful cards, Jennifer! Those metallic powders are lovely :-)

[@kellihudson3849]

It is nice to see you change your mind and how to change the color

[@loriritchie7124]

Wow Jennifer where do you come up with all these amazing ideas? You must dream, eat and sleep crafting!

[@suetownsend1932]

Another wonderful technique. Thank you. I have some multi-color Christmas trees already die cut for children's cards, and I think I'll use the popped up foreground to add some dimension. It's not exactly what you showed, but a springboard idea based on what you taught today, using what I have on hand. :)

[@369gigi8]

so gorgeous and classy :) thanks for sharing another great idea for stretching the use of die sets!

[@j9cardstock354]

You are so creative, it’s incredible! Fabulous cards.

[@lisaainscough2465]

Lovely cards, as usual. So much food for thought.

[@smply4you]

Gorgeous cards. Thanks for sharing Jennifer.

[@jennifermcguireink]

You are so welcome!

[@tammywhitley4657]

Great video again!!! I love this technique. And Im so glad you showed us how to cut the card with the dies, I would have never thought of using the vellum. That was so awesome. And Im not sure if you meant to, but thanks for answering my question that I sent you an email about in this video!! Your the best! Blessings!

[@katherynbeaver4607]

Oh my goodness! This just blew me away. Have to try this soon. Thanks for sharing.

[@verblu8507]

WOW! Awesome idea! That is a beautiful card! Thanks Jennifer!!!!!

[@lorraineturner2817]

Jennifer once again you have astounded me. I will definitely be trying both these cards and their techniques, they are so classy with the gloss of the embossing powders. I love the coloured envelopes too, so these will have to go on my Wish list too. Thank you for sharing your skills, tips and designs to us crafters. :O)

[@sandrasmith1628]

This is my favorite technique! I love the look of white embossing.

[@pandywilson9076]

You are just incredibly brilliant and creative my friend! Love how you come up with so many ways to use the tools and materials we already have!

[@terrie1226]

What a great technique and your cards turned out fantastic....well done tfs

[@Bigmist8k]

The vellum overlay was genius!

[@cyanoxicrose]

Oh my goodness I have actually thought about doing this technique with some of the Altenew stamp and die sets. Good to know you were thinking the same thing. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@viviennewykes7124]

Absolutely beautiful I really love this effect and the metallics are just so elegant.

[@pamelarickbeil1183]

Wonderful, Jennifer, so creative!

[@cathyconey3273]

Just got my stamp platform from Tim holtz in the mail!!! Excited to try your techniques

[@janellegraham8896]

That's so clever and absolutely beautiful! 😊 Thanks for the share.

[@cherylcrenshaw1997]

I can't wait to try out your method on my own. Thanks for sharing.

[@kathleenwardingley5168]

Simply stunning!

[@rhodakiesow6056]

I just love to see what you're doing next!

[@Skepe23]

I absolutely love these cards.

[@roshodgkins5417]

Love the effects with dies and velum, really good. X Ros

[@geris831]

Thanks for the great tips and beautiful cards!

[@coolstamper]

Beautiful card, Jennifer!!! Also, instead of wasting your vellum paper, you can use tracing paper...cheaper too!

[@jennifermcguireink]

yes! if i had some lol

[@judybowlby8730]

Thanks for sharing these great tip videos with us. You always make me think that I too can make these. lol.

[@gingerphillips765]

Thank you Jennifer ❤

[@juliebergacker5680]

Lovely card. I need that stamp set😀

[@kristinevencel2898]

Beautiful and something fairly easy to do!

[@sandrasmith1628]

Oops! I thought I was commenting on Carol Pooler''s video so please ignore my other comment. I loved this video and learned a new technique today. Cannotwait to try it myself.

[@DianaHernandez-kn1ne]

Beautiful cards, awesome technique. tfs

[@jeanneluddeni5159]

Very true I have the sidekick and love it and now I have great ideas for cards

[@connietiner27]

These are gorgeous.

[@leticialightfoot1419]

Wow, this is sooooo beautiful....new subbie, so glad i found your channel, will def be trying this...

[@teresadoyle1396]

Such beautiful cards.

[@lauraaaa2010]

Please share how you create another card with those vellum pieces!

[@JennyColacicco]

Beautiful. You’re so inspiring!

[@coolstamper]

Another GORGEOUS card...TYFS! 💕

[@pattiepan]

Jennifer this is a really interesting technique that you showed. I love the effect of the main image being recessed. At first I didn't know what it was but I could see it was different. Then I realized what you were getting at. It is pretty. and does give dimension. Jennifer what causes an embossed image to pebble. I mean is it the embossing powder or is it something else I'm doing that's wrong. What causes that pebbled effect. ....do you know Jennifer. I was using a glossy card stock.. Thanks for any help you can suggest...... pat

[@patriciascoble9680]

Thank you for another inspiring video.

[@kyblackmon9936]

Jennifer, I always see you layering your thinly cut word dies and you just pop them straight on with no problem. I have tried this SO many times and it's been a miserable failure. I've used 3 different types of glue but before I can get them lined up, the glue has dried and now I tear the stacked word trying to get them to line up like you do. Do you have a secret you can share on how you are able to do this?

[@francescabiancon]

Great tutorial, I want to try as soon as possible! Thank youuuu❤️

[@jessielyn7]

Thank you so much for all the inspiration!!!

[@melbaa.8872]

Great Idea and Very Beautiful!

[@lorrainedurgee1761]

Can’t find the supplies that you used on my ipad

[@jamiekaus1037]

Jennifer, this brilliant!

[@aliceadler4569]

Stunning as usual!!!

[@yeonsoo91]

just thinking that when we do this kind of cards, i thought it would be nice if we stamp identical 2 sheets with flowers and die cut the other. then maybe we can use the flowers later and use the window. i hope this makes sense.

[@yeonsoo91]

btw loveeeee the cards

[@Ebbie08]

It makes sense and I think a better use of resources. Good idea!

[@KLThames]

This is exactly what I do! I figure this is why I have a stamp platform, so that I can make exact multiple copies of cards.

[@joannesplace449]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@jennifermcguireink]

yes, you would reallllly have to have a MISTI for that way, but not this way!

[@katherineschmitt6322]

Did you do any special planning to stay within the 6 inch platform?

[@candacekieper4354]

Want to get three shades of each color embossing powder to try this like copper,rose gold peach gold, or silver, platinum,gunmetal or three shades of gold, have used three tone embossing for flowers before also pretty

[@Thisisit120]

Does the Altenew embossing powder work well on small print stamps?

[@melindamorgan1736]

What an awesome idea!!! ❤️

[@MsJet1]

Just stunning!

[@phyllisrobinson1103]

Love your work!

[@altabeegle3305]

So beautiful!

[@faithsteinberg]

Jennifer, can you tell me the name of the tool you use to pick up your jewels and rhinestones and add then to your cards? Or provide a link? Thanks

[@NancyLynn]

Hey SWF...I'm pretty sure it's the Marvy Uchida Jewel Picker Tool. You can find them on Amazon or many other craft supply stores. Hope this helps and happy crafting!

[@jeaninemayden7561]

Where did you get the magnet bar? I got one but too thick for the misty

[@NancyLynn]

Hey Jeanine...I bought a magnet bar off of Amazon and although I can use it, I too find it 'just a hair' too thick. I bought the MISTI bar magnet and it works much better. Happy crafting!

[@kreativeReise]

Love this technique but I think I try to do this with thr help of a lightbox...then there won't be wasted vellum... Thanks for showing new inspirations so often...

[@rubytuesday7225]

Great video. Lovely. Thank you x

[@belencoyco3110]

Love your cards...I inspired !!!!

[@carolgodfrey4232]

I really struggle using my tweezers to do this without leaving marks what's your opinion or suggestions for not having that not sure what im doing wrong

[@NancyLynn]

I was having the same issue too Carol! Then I saw another crafter take a small strip of scrap paper (say about 2 to 3" long) and temporarily tape about the last 1/2" of it to the backside of the sentiment, kinda like a holder. I tried it and it works like a charm! Happy Crafting Carol!

[@whoooami2090]

Beautiful cards! How do you keep your jewel picker sticky? Mine won’t pick up anything 🤔

[@racheljolley26352]

Marilyn Martin have you given it a good rinse under the tap, that should do it?

[@whoooami2090]

Rachel Jolley great! I’ll give that a try, thanks!

[@NancyLynn]

Hey Marilyn...to regain its adhesion, just roll the tip on adhesive tape. This will pick up any dust and oils on the tip. If the tip loses it tackiness completely and using the adhesive tape to remove it does not work, then use an ultra fine sandpaper to rub off any dust and objects. Hope this helps Marilyn and happy crafting!

[@whoooami2090]

Nancy Lynn thank you!

[@Kat-fg3qw]
