Paper Rose - Spring Rain - 18 cards from one 6x6 paper pad

[@roxannetucker5813]

Kristie, not a day goes by that someone wouldn't enjoy learning from you on how to make cards pretty and simple by using the card layouts that can be found on a number of websites. You're easy to follow along with and fun to watch you create your designs.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Aw, thank you so much! I am a huge fan of using card sketches for inspiration. 😊

[@michiganlighthouse]

Love that first card!😊 Because of your videos, my cardmaking learning curve has been significantly shortened. Living the dream!!

[@ladyflimflam]

I appreciate that you continue to make some voiceover videos knowing how much more work they are for you. I find them about 100 times more helpful than simply watching someone make cards. Hearing you talk through design decisions and techniques really puts learning on fast forward for me.

[@KristieMarcotte]

I try to post a variety of video styles since people prefer different styles. I do post more videos with a full voiceover. Sometimes I just need a break from voiceover and go with music in the background. 😊

[@viviengleeson7486]

This collection is my favourite so far Kristie and I LOVE your tutorials. Fantastic to watch. The sketches you chose for this collection works really well with the paper collection. LOVE this one!!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much!

[@DiamondsandDobermans]

These cards are so elegant and classy! The 5 hellos is such a clever idea! Definitely going to try that! And label dies! I have not used my label dies in forever! Thank you for inspiring me to dust them off and use them! ❤️😘

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 😊 The Hello card was one of my favorites. 💖

[@jarchas1229]

These are all GORGEOUS! Well done and very easy to follow.

[@maggiebrinkley4760]

Beautiful and inspiring cards, Kristie - as usual! The patterned paper is absolutely gorgeous! I hope you are recovering well from your eye surgery. Stay safe and well!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! The paper collection really is beautiful. 💖

[@noreenmulder5255]

These cards are very pretty. It is so amazing how you make them so different from video to video. Thank you so much for sharing.🌼

[@cheripierson2742]

I’m going to tell my husband that I want this paper pack for Valentine’s Day. I love it that much😀. Thanks for such an excellent video ❤️

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! It really is a very lovely collection. Hopefully your hubby listens. 💖

[@francinebeckett8365]

Using correct terminology is a professional presentation. Emboss and deboss.

[@aliceadler4569]

Such beautiful cards from a gorgeous collection. Bravo 🎉

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@brendcatstl7506]

Hi Kristie- love using the Embellishment Wand- you turned me on to cool items. I like the voice over videos too, though by now it easy to relax and enjoy musical versions too . Thanks

[@KristieMarcotte]

I love the embellishment wand. Makes it so easy to pick up small pieces.😊

[@PaperSquirrelsCardDesigns]

my favorite was the last card with all the "hellos"... it was nice and simple and I love the idea of cutting out the same word in several different patterns! I also appreciated the tips you gave for stretching pieces of pattern paper that are just a little too small. Thanks!

[@gayle1055]

Kristie, I’m so impressed with all those cards you created. I loved all of them. They went together very nicely and the bling sure completed the cards.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Aw, thank you so much! 😊

[@CraftingMyWorld]

All gorgeous cards! I love Paperrose papers - they are my favourites!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! 😊 I love Paper Rose papers too! 💖

[@CallMeCraftyAl]

Beautiful cards, yet again!! :) Thank you so much for sharing your process and for featuring a couple SheetLoad sketches :)

[@KristieMarcotte]

Aw, thank you so much! I’m really enjoying all your fun card sketches. 😊💖

[@brendcatstl7506]

Love it - this paper pad is beautiful. Thanks for sharing Kristie

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@JoanOrloffDK]

Fabulous cards 😻 I love the pattern papers and your card designs, so many Fabulous cards ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! This is such a pretty paper collection. 😊💖

[@halomom1]

Great card set, Kristie! I really like the ones you made with Crafty Al's Feb 2021 card sketch. I love all those busy papers together like that. Beautiful! 😁💜

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! This collection is beautiful! 😊💖

[@ej5249]

Such a pretty paper pad.

[@KristieMarcotte]

It is a beautiful collection. 💖

[@rebeccasuraci7666]

Love this paper! Lol . I like how say embellishment wand so fancy. I use them for studding my dance costumes and we just call them gem pickers /stone tool

[@KristieMarcotte]

It really is beautiful paper. Embellishment Wand is what Studio Katia gives the tool. I do like the fancy name. 💖

[@gailhowerton3266]

thank you, Kristie! i hope your eyes are healing well!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! My eyes are doing very well. 💗

[@velvetspicer1962]

New subscriber who loves watching you work. I need to use more sketches!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Aw, thanks for your kindness and for subscribing! I do love using card sketches. 😊

[@terrie1226]

Well done and TFS

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! 😊

[@lorimanning924]

Beautiful cards! I can't tell you the number of times I am watching another crafter's videos and think, "oh no, they didn't add scrap cardstock...that's going to dip!!" after watching you for so long. :)

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! 😊 I’ve only seen a few other crafters add those scrap cardstock pieces. I figured I’m just a bit obsessive. Lol!

[@heatherupton820]

Yay Paper Rose, love the cards. Just getting into Crafty Al, nice to see you using them (so I can pinch your ideas...lol).

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! Crafty Al has some really fun sketches. 💖

[@nancyprobst6311]

Such pretty cards!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! 😊

[@resqbarbie13]

Love the stack of hellos!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you! The Hello card was very fun. 💖

[@pamelazimin4326]

Kristie I loved these cards❤️

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@beverlystotz5652]

Love!! I think you had enough to do one more card with the hello die cuts. 😂 This paper is beautiful and so are these cards!!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Yeah, I probably could have made at least one more. But finishing at 18 cards just seemed perfect. 😊💖

[@ThorneyRose]

Bumps in would be the negative version of the embossing folder and bumps out would be the positive!😋 I like your wording though… In one of my craft groups we challenge each other to come up with new words - kind of hybrid sort of thing. We call dry brushing (painting) “drushing”. Beautiful cards Kristie. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺 & 🐶Omega the Cavalier 🐶

[@KristieMarcotte]

It's funny because I actually knew the correct term. But sometimes when I'm recording voiceover, words become hard. I've said right for left, purple for pink, and plenty of other oopsies. Lol! I've never heard the term drushing before though.

[@ThorneyRose]

@@KristieMarcotte there’s always a new one!!!😋 it’s not caught on yet but we’re working on it. I often get the wrong words too. The more people (or cameras) that are around the more I’ll stuff it up!!! So you’re not alone. 🌹Rosie🇦🇺

[@created2bless322]

So pretty and these cards put a smile on my face! Enjoyed seeing you used Crafty Al's layout :-) I also think the comic strip die looks like a stained glass panel and I really like it! Thank you for sharing and hope you are doing well!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! I’m really enjoying Call Me Crafty Al’s card sketches. 💖

[@kbissell9]

Amazing as usual!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 💖

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

Absolutely beautiful cards Kristie. ❤️😊🥰 I just bought four of the sticker stripes through you.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 😊 Lizi’s Peel Offs are amazing! 💖

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

@@KristieMarcotte you are very welcome. How long does it take to get them? I paid for them and haven’t received an email yet. Just curious.

[@KristieMarcotte]

@@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff Depending where you live, it takes about a week. It can be more though if customs decides to hold onto your package a bit. That’s happened to me several times. Hopefully you’ll get an email confirmation soon. I know the UK is experiencing snow. Not normal for them. So Lizi’s helpers haven’t been able to get to the office.

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

@@KristieMarcotte that makes sense then. My hubby’s 50th birthday is the 23 rd of this month so I was hoping to make him a fun card with some of that. But it may not make it. Oh well.

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

@@KristieMarcotte I live in Colorado and used to live in Washington state so go Seahawks. Lol.

[@tracytracy622]

Lovely!! I really loved the second card, with the "flower garden and brick wall." You da best! {{{♡}}}

[@KristieMarcotte]

Aw, thank you! The paper is so pretty, the card didn’t need much more. 💖

[@genachappell9089]

Kristie. First I love your videos and your cards. I know you said you get your cardstock at Joann’s do you just buy individual sheets to match the paper pads or do you buy the cardstock in pads as well and if in pads what brand of pads. (Just the regular cardstock, not the specialty). Thanks so much

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! 😊 I only purchase the individual sheets of cardstock from Joann’s. I’ll bring the paper pad to the store so it’s easy to find coordinating colors. I also wait for the cardstock to go on sale, then stock up. The only packs I buy are black, Kraft, and navy blue. I prefer Michaels cardstock packs.

[@vickyreuter8450]

Deboss is the term you were looking for.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Yes, thank you! Lol!

[@royadevenport2733]

Kristie, what is the name of the company of the scalloped rectangle die you used for card #3? Also, loved seeing you use the Sheetload of Cards sketch from Crafty Al. She is another youtuber I enjoy following and have also suggested to her to post to Rumble. I enjoy seeing your videos on Rumble as well! Best Regards

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! The scallop rectangle die is from a retired MFT blueprint set. Call Me Crafty Al has some really fun card sketches. Rumble is still a very new platform for me. I know many people have left KZbin though so I will continue to upload my videos there. 🙂

[@barbp1357]

"Bumps out" = EMBOSS, "Bumps in" = DEBOSS 😊

[@KristieMarcotte]

I remembered the term later. Lol! Sometimes my mind goes blank doing voiceover. I even get my left and right mixed up. 😂

[@barbp1357]

@@KristieMarcotte I can't even imagine doing a voice over. You really rock it! You sound so natural and at ease. Love your videos.❤

[@cheryleoconnor8314]

Kristi what weight cardstock do you use for your card bases? Is it 110?

[@KristieMarcotte]

I use 120 lb cardstock for my card bases. It’s very nice. I do have a link in the description box for the paper I use. 🙂

[@cheryleoconnor8314]

TY ❤

[@suzannemendez2505]

Where do you get the embellishment wand?

[@KristieMarcotte]

The one I have is made by Studio Katia. I have a couple links in the description box where you can purchase it. I love it!

[@ggsjunkjournaltime9784]

hi kristine can i trade a crd with you pretty please i love the teal one i love all of them i need to learnh how to do cards i need to get me crd stock ans a die cutting machine my favorate is the shakers

[@KristieMarcotte]

Thank you so much! I don’t really trade cards since most of my cards are donated to local charities or retirement homes. I will sell some cards in my Etsy shop. Card making is a very fun hobby. I hope you will enjoy it as well. 😊

[@lesjohnson9303]

Could you please tell me what glue you ue

[@KristieMarcotte]

Hello. I've been using Bearly Art liquid glue. It's really nice and hold well. I have a link provided in the description box.

[@deborahreeder7374]

Lovely colors, but too busy for my taste.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Some of the papers are definitely on the busier side. But it is a lovely collection. 🙂
