I love Love from Lizi peel and stick strips so much, especially the copper for something like Fall. Your cards are lovely. Your nail polish color goes perfectly with the color scheme of the paper pad. :D The music is so pretty and nice to listen to.

[@KristieMarcotte]

mawmawvee Thank you! Lizi’s Peel Off stickers are amazing! I use them as often as possible. 😊 It’s always fun coordinating my nail polish with the paper collection.

The embossing folder on that gold foil paper is beautiful!!! I loved how you used it. I kind of struggle with those ephemera packs but girl you rocked it out. It was good you backed some of them to make them pop. Such a cute paper line and if you where trying to get me ready for fall you have succeeded. Lovely cards and wonderful inspiration.

[@LindaSinNE]

Striking cards as always, Kristie. Yes, I did like the slower speed of this video. I also liked the addition of your use of the foiled papers by Tonic. Even though the EF is showing as sold out, I did wonder if using it with the foil CS required lightly spritzing the paper first, so that it would not "crack" when run through the folder? Also, what is the preferred way for you to notifiy your fans as to when Love From Lizi is offering free shipping? That would be a big help in placing an order with her company. Love your use of her peel-off products, especially with the Holidays coming right up. Thank you for another entertaining video.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Linda S. in NE Thank you! I appreciate your kindness. The specialty cardstock added such a lovely touch to the cards. Bummer the embossing folder sold out already. Hopefully it’ll get restocked soon. I didn’t do anything to the specialty cardstock before dry embossing it. The Tonic paper is a nice weight and I didn’t notice any cracking. I will always share any sales for Love From Lizi on my Instagram and Facebook pages. Sometimes I’ll post a video as well. 🙂

have you thought about the spellbinders card kit? i would love to see how many cards you can make out of those! love your videos. I thought at one point you were talking about a class on how you pick your sketches/use the paper pads etc. I am still interested.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Mary Ann P I’ve never really looked into Spellbinder’s kits before, but I’m sure they are fun. I’m on Love From Lizi’s design team. She makes monthly kits. I also guest design once in awhile for Pink & Main and Scrapping for Less using their monthly kits. My crafty plate is already quite full at the moment. I am still planing on doing a class series about my 6x6 tutorial. I just haven’t had time over the summer to really look into it yet.

[@robinblank3023]

You are incredible with somehow taking supplies and using sketches. I can't seem to master that concept. And believe me when I say I have SUPPLIES! It's the connection to card sketches that evades me. I love watching you! Always amazed at what you create! I appreciate you're identifying the matching cardstock to 6X6. That has been a BIG struggle for me, the matching of cardstock. It has deflated me more than once. Do you have any feelings on someone CAS'ing your work and then selling at a local craft fair?

[@KristieMarcotte]

Robin Blank Thank you! I appreciate your kindness. I do my best to list the cardstock colors and brands. However, a lot of my cardstock has been hanging out in my craft room for years and isn’t labeled. It’s fine if you want to CASE my cards to sell. I always appreciate a shout out if you share on social media. 🙂

[@renaijohnson8850]

I love these videos and I too like it slower so I can see what you are doing. I have started making cards with my mom and sister to donate. We have been hesitant to add gems to send to children. Do you put gems on your kid cards? Thanks so much for sharing.

[@KristieMarcotte]

Renai Johnson Thank you! How wonderful that you craft with your mom and sister. I’m sure the cards you donate are greatly appreciated. I currently don’t donate cards to children. Most of mine are going to small charities and retirement homes. But when I have donated cards to a children’s hospital, I did leave off the bling. It’s always better to be safe. You can use paper embellishments or Nuvo drops instead. 🙂

All the cards turned out super cute! Definitely gives me inspiration for my 6x6 pads! I like the slower speed of video. Thank you for asking our opinion on that! If you dont mind me asking, (I understand if you dont want to reveal) where do you get your sketches from? Thx

[@mztamarad]

Hello, i love your work and I am getting ready to attempt a card selection. I am narrowing it down but I have a question, how do you chose a paper pad to my multiple cards with? I was looking at Echo Park fashionista as I want to make cards for my girlfriends for me to give them 1 and to include 2 blank cards as a share the thought kinda thing. Will this work with all paper pads or do you look for something specific when selecting? Thanks

[@KristieMarcotte]

Tamara SD Thank you! I appreciate your kindness. You really can use any paper pad and make multiple cards. I have several brands I prefer. Echo Park being one of them. But I’ve used a huge variety of different brands. I like collections that have a nice mix of tone on tone and busier designs. It helps balance out the cards. Paper pads that are mostly busy patterns still work, but I will then use more solid cardstock to balance out those busy patterns. I hope you have fun creating your cards. I’m sure your friends will love them. 💖

[@Minalynn53]

I have two in general questions please. How do you decide which sketches to use? And do you ever have problems with the tape sort of walking off the roller on your tape gun? I had one of those and could never really use it because every time I tried the tape would work it's way off the roller (the one touching the paper and releasing the tape- I hope that makes sense) and trying to get it back on involved lots of tearing and wasted tape... Anyway, thanks so much for sharing your videos!

[@KristieMarcotte]

Minalynn53 Hello! There are several things I consider when selecting sketches. Usually I look for sketches based on what size paper scraps are available. Or if there a specific image I want to feature on a card, I’ll search for a sketch that will accommodate it. Other times, I just want to try out a new-to-me sketch. I have had faulty ATG refills before. For that specific problem, custom shims are very helpful. Use a piece of cardboard, cereal box thickness, and cut out a circle just a bit larger than the rape roll. Then cut a smaller circle in the center to fit snuggly around the roller. It’ll help keep the tape in place. You could also contact the company about the defective roll. I buy my refills from Tape Jungle and get a few fussy rolls once in awhile. But generally the shim corrects the problem.

[@Minalynn53]

@@KristieMarcotte Thank you so much for the info. I will have to give the shim a try.
