Therese, I have been following you since back in the day when you worked with Purple Onion. When I saw those videos, it’s what really got me interested in making cards! I still have my stash of unmounted red rubber stamps!! I am in love with a lot of Ellen’s products too… Edit: Wow!! I wrote this before the video finished and before you used your purple onion designs image!! You really just touched on everything I love about card making and the companies I love!! I recently took a break of about 3months following my hysterectomy and a lot going on but watching this has made me want to get back in my craft room… I’m going to make something using the technique you used with purple onion! Much love from North Carolina!💕

[@lostinpaper]

Thanks so very much Liane, how exciting that you are feeling well enough to get back into your crafty space! I have noticed recently a lot of people who are 'returning' to crafting or starting papercrafting, this truly makes my day, it's such a creative and relaxing way to spend our time, not to mention the great friends we make too. I hope you have fun playing with your stash! Crafty hugs, Therese x

These were all beautiful! (And no you were not ravin’ off. Your commentary was perfect) My favourite was your glittery mouse. I send my cards to the elderly and they don’t want glitter. Is there a way to secure the glitter so it doesn’t escape all over the recipient? I’d love to see a video on the different ways to add sparkle to your cards.

[@lostinpaper]

The only way you could be sure would be to put it behind a 'window' like a shaker card, maybe try acetate... some glitter cardstocks don't 'shift' glitter either. That's a hard questions Kylie lol. Thanks so much for your lovely visit here today x

I am re-watching this.... I was wondering if there is a special sandwich to use the dies with felt...and would a dryer sheet make it easier to cut? I think I want to play with this. I get so much at yard sales that I have plenty of felt and paper....LOL. Gee... maybe I will make a card.... what an idea....LOL

[@lostinpaper]

Hi Valda, I just use my regular sandwich. Mostly I don't have any problems cutting felt, but if you do have problems you could try a thin dryer sheet, though i wouldn't want to put too much extra pressure on a die cutting machine. I have found that the better quality felts definitely cut more cleanly, I hope this makes sense (I am post night duty with minimal sleep lol.) Hugs Tx

[@gingerpayne7310]

Beautiful cards and amazing techniques!! This has nothing to do with these cards- how do you 3D embossing with your Sizzix machine? I am new at 3D embossing folder

[@lostinpaper]

The sandwich I use in my Bigshot is the platform, the embossing folder (with the paper inside wink) and one clear plate on top. I found if I put the plate on the bottom the embossing folder sometimes warped. Hope this works for you, each machine is a little different and you may find you need a thin shim if your machine is older and no longer has good pressure. Crafty hugs, Therese
