DON'T COPY CARDS! Do this instead... Vol. 2

[@SuperRocketdog1]

Great video!..I loved the double sided tape and embossing in different colours. Lots of great ideas..thank you!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍😍💕🐶🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

[@judyhartmann3071]

Pretty cards! You did a great job changing up the design from the inspiration card!

[@laurenbutler3452]

Pretty awesome Justine! Pretty awesome!

[@craftyladybug411]

I never copy cards or paintings exactly. I take what I like most about it, color pattern, type of flowers, design, image, etc. Then I use different papers, stamps etc to create my own idea. Great video. Thank you.

[@9liveslisa]

Great video! Very nice looking cards!

[@shirleyphillips8936]

Thank you for sharing your thought process when you are inspired by some else’s creations. Beautiful cards all round.

[@NancyLynn]

Gorgeous cards, Justine and a fabulous idea on showing us how to create cards by taking inspiration from others. Thanks for sharing, Justine!

[@tracyjollymore6249]

Love how you've adapted your own stash and your own style. Watching you describe your inspiration pieces and how you put your own spin on them is great! Entertaining AND educational :-)

[@racheljolley26352]

Excellent rendition of those cards, gorgeous! Thank you 💕⭐️🏆

Great tips and cards, thank you for sharing your knowledge and ideas

[@alexcialynne]

never thought of using pinterest for inspiration, i watch a lot of videos and rarely use pinterest but now has a reason to try it :) and i too like the idea of putting own spin on things i see... its how i become inspired to make a memory book for a pet, was so lost at first but one idea led to another idea and now i have a plan to work with and soon the materials and the fun begins... thank you for these videos, keep smiling! ~ happy crafting!

I loved this video. I am going to have to invest in one of those cutting machines. I don't want a complicated one and thinking of a compact one.

[@gingerpayne7310]

Great ideas! Beautiful cards.

[@melissazabower339]

I think I like your version better than each of the originals!

[@candyclouston1412]

Very useful. I think in the case of the [original] leaf dies for which you used flowers, I'd cut it six times in white and use markers to color the pieces rather than cut it so many more times. I'm also interested in cutting outline dies and also embossing them on a white card-sized panel and coloring in the embossed panel. You can use markers for solid areas or various blending techniques if you're adventurous. I'd use my Copics, which I don't blend with as often as I do my waterbased markers, so it would exploit their color families without requiring blending.

[@cindymitchell4696]

I was thinking the same thing!

That would work too. Haha never thought of that

[@melissamcneil683]

Love the last card you did. Thank you for sharing. Always insperational.

[@aquinyc]

Gosh! This video is fantastic! I often “copy” and find inspiration from YT videos and Pinterest cards. Love your take on ALL of them using what you already own. Your video about not buying on impulse Has helped me so much too. I had started but that video (and the hoarding paper) gave me the last push I needed. This video is a perfect example of working with what is in your stash! Gorgeous cards! Laura

[@ritaswanger1047]

Great ideas for changing the cards

[@Taitcreates639]

Justine, you did make some pretty detailed cards, you are an amazing, creative card maker for sure. I’ve learned a lot from you. Tfs

[@wendywatt1285]

Awesome tips and beautiful cards🌺💕

[@susanfanucchi2912]

What an awesome video! Gorgeous cards.

[@valumen]

I am not good in giving card designs my own twist, so your thought process- what makes the card of the other creator what it is and what appeals to me?- is very valuable. Also, Press‘N Seal.😍 I can do that now!!!💃🏻And last but not least- great choice in soccer.😉

[@jenniecottrell4316]

All your card are wonderful!

[@facsmom]

Thank you for mentioning Kit and Clowder! Alyce Keegan is a great teacher. Glad to see “famous” people learning from her, too:)

[@floradiamonds]

As always, lots of lovely ideas, a great help to me, as I'm stuck. What is a Debbie tool, please? Or Debby...? I've not heard of it; is it something I could find in England? Thank you.

[@justinehovey]

It's a door knob essentially attached to a piece of wood. It helps you get even pressure when stamping using the stamping tool, or I use it to help keep things glued down when drying. It's made by a lovely lady in the USA who is recently retired and started her own business. The link is in the description, I don't think shipping is that high last time I checked.

[@floradiamonds]

[@aminaart4543]

Very nice

[@debrapascoe2806]

Could you add the products u use on the screen? What layering stencil did you use for the flower and leaves?

[@justinehovey]

I'm always kind of back and forth with this because I want to promote using your supplies rather than always going out and buying the latest and greatest. All the supplies are listed in the video description and I'll consider putting them on screen. This is the stamp/stencil bundle I used ldli.co/e/gme5q4

[@cordeliaalderman391]

Great advice

[@bookwormbon482]

Hi, I purchased the crafty retreat VIP and was just wondering how we access the recordings?

[@justinehovey]

Emails went out yesterday. Check your spam!

[@juliemorgan6822]

How did you make the stencil, to color the flowers?

[@justinehovey]

ldli.co/e/gme5q4 it comes as a set

[@Cre8iveCindy]

@@justinehovey This may be a silly question or a no-brainer, Could you make a layering stencil with a die-cut machine?

[@justinehovey]

@@Cre8iveCindy I believe you could do it with stencil paper (or cardstock for temporary stencils) ans maybe a brother scan n cut or something. I personally don’t know how.

[@PaperSquirrelsCardDesigns]

By the way, I meant to ask you--have you done a craft room tour video since you did the Kon Marie cleanout? I was intrigued by how you had your double-sided tape hanging up like a paper towel holder 😊 I have such a small space so I'm always looking for ideas on keeping things workable!

[@justinehovey]

Yes I have a few craft tours I've posted since purging my supplies :) I moved since then, so there should be two available.

[@chelseam7407]

Did you put the paper on the press and seal and then run it through the die cutting machine? Or did you stick the cut outs onto the press and seal after you cut it?

[@justinehovey]

It went though the machine :)

[@chelseam7407]

I had no idea! Thanks so much! :)

[@chrissyhilton6957]

Hi! You mentioned some classes that helped you learn to color with Copic markers. Which classes are these?

[@justinehovey]

Kit and Clowder Classes

[@kreativfischlein]

Greatings from Germany Bavaria, near munic😜 great video

[@RachelRamey]

I'm not sure at what stage you added the Press-n-Seal, but it doesn't seem like that's the most efficient way to get the pieces inset. Seems like it would be easier to place the whole cutout over the white outline, and then press them all into place at once, rather than taking them all out one by and one and putting them in.

[@justinehovey]

Before die cutting. I find if the pieces are bigger, it's a possibility. But if these flowers (and the amount of them) start getting mixed up and each piece is a different size, it becomes so time consuming

[@Cre8iveCindy]

Reading the comments-You used Press and seal? (I missed that one.) Do you have a video on using Press and seal? I tried working with it recently and was unsuccessful.

[@justinehovey]

I just place my cardstock on it and run it through my die cutting machine. It keeps all the pieces in place. I don’t have a specific video on it, since that’s all it is. But @simonhurley does! kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXjCgJ2il9eJgKc

[@barbaraparker5768]

AWESOME

[@irishk.1041]

I believe, as artists, that we ALL copy things to a degree. Whether it be from others or from the creations of God Himself 😁. In all truthfulness, none of us are THAT creative! When I first started to make cards (and your gluing technique on the vellum reminded me of this little trick) I learned to take a piece of wax paper. Place it over top of the piece to be glued and then rub gently to stick it down. Helps keep it IN place and doesn't get all over you too. Works for highly detailed die cuts and even larger non-detailed die cuts. Just an idea.

[@Ninjamom4]

❤️❤️❤️

[@elisahall675]

There are so artists that invite observers to copy their cards, though I appreciate your point of view.

[@justinehovey]

I also don’t particularly care if people copy my cards as long as credit is given if they post on social media about it.
