Make your own stencils with this common kitchen item!!

[@carolynrose8135]

I don’t have a laminator but used an iron Thanks for the idea. Saves money on masking paper

[@moosedawg71]

Yeah, an iron should work fine. I use an iron when I make wrapping paper with my freezer paper.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Good idea!

[@maryfeldmann7705]

Thank you for sharing. I don't have a laminator but I do have and iron. 😊

[@iteeshollow]

I was just going to comment to use your iron, lol.

[@faodail3913]

I use an iron, too. It works.

[@darcynalder1518]

This was one of the most innovative ideas I’ve seen in a long time and I love that I can now use my dies in another way which just opened up a huge new world of possibilities. Thank you for sharing. I also appreciated you sharing your thoughts on the little side kick. There have been times that I haven’t wanted to pull out my bigger machine because my work space was already full of my project. Good to know you like it.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@debbieekes5718]

An iron works great on freezer paper

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Great tip!

[@susanzapletal5299]

I commented just now but hadn’t yet finished watching your video so now I feel I have to add how beautiful and creative your cards and say how much I love your process and I will subscribe to your channel. I have been a card maker for over thirty years and am fascinated that I can always learn new techniques. Thank you!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words!

[@bonnieisabelle3641]

Great technique. Now to remember freezer paper next time I go to the store. I was glad to hear you say you save everything because you hate waste. I have people ask me all the time why I save small scraps. I have some tiny punches and dies, if they will fit in the scrap, it gets saved.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you!

[@susanzapletal5299]

Such an amazing technique. It is so, so practical in that you can create a stencil of the fantastic dies you already own. Your tutorial is excellent, so concise.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you!!

[@manettle]

I'm not a card maker but watch card making videos to get technique ideas for other paper crafts. This video is the first one that actually piques my interest in card making. Great ideas!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Wow, thank you!❤️ what paper crafts do you make?

[@dawnmulder3540]

Very cool! It’s cool how it adheres to the base. I don’t like adhesive sprays, so this is a better idea. It seems more like a mask than a stencil, though. Stencils collect the color in the openings; masks block the color and protect the base.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Good point! I’ll have to try using more as a mask!

[@Love2Create62]

That last card is stunning!! I love all of the sparkle! Whoever receives it will love it!! 😍

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you!❤️❤️❤️

[@Kateseyes]

Wow, I would never have thought to use freezer paper as a stencil. I’m amazed at the beautiful cards you made. Thank you for sharing this video with us. ❤

[@paulachristopher9451]

Beautiful! You are so talented.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much!

[@amandalock9510]

Well, I stumbled across this post quite by accident, and I love what you’ve demonstrated! So very creative and clever. In a past life, I have been a quilter and still have freezer paper from those days. Now, I make cards and you’ve inspired a whole cluster of ideas. Thanks so much! I am a new follower! And, your cards are delightful!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks so much! I appreciate your kind words!

[@connieloe3618]

Very clever use of freezer paper! I especially Ike your use of waste pieces, too!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@callmejacki]

Great idea and loved how you explain it. That last bonus card is the best! So lovely without a lot of effort.

[@zormier2002]

Wow so resourceful. Beautiful cards ❤❤❤

[@rebeccafiveash4335]

Absolutely beautiful cards and so innovative down to the very last scraps! Well done.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much!

[@sheliaporter6795]

I absolutely love your idea of using freezer paper as a stencil! I don't have a laminator, but I do have an iron and a heat gun, so I can't wait to try this! I also love how you used all of the pieces to make beautiful cards. ❤😊

[@andreah993]

WOW. What an array of fantastic cards. I love the fact you ve used the freezer paper as a stencil and totally agree with you that ALL the cards turned out great (even the one you used stencil paste on 😂) my favourite was the last one maing a tri-fold card out of the scrap was genius. I loved all these ideas and Freezer paper (with wax) is now on my shopping list. I will definitely try all your ideas here. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these cards and for the inspiration. X X from the uk X X

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much I I appreciate your kind words! Just to clarify though- you want plastic coated freezer paper, not wax :) happy crafting!

[@carolbatchelor5855]

Your techniques are awesome! Such great ideas for creating cards. There's no need to waste something that you can actually use! I love all of your cards, but I especially love the last one. Thanks for sharing!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks so much!❤️❤️❤️

[@juliehardy7510]

I'll have to add a laminator to my wish list

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

I held off on buying one for a long time, but it’s been very useful!

[@PrairieStork]

Wowza! Beautiful!!! Love them!!!😊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🏼

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks so much 😊

[@kimberlysiddons]

Oh my goodness!! That last card!!❤ New subbie here

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks for subbing!

[@honestly8015]

Stephanie - I've never seen this technique before. I have freezer paper for other things, but never in my wildest imaginings have I had this idea! I am so tickled to see your ideas, and my own wee mind is twirling with ideas. Thanks so much for your creative genius and for sharing this brilliant and crazy idea.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching!

[@nuvoclassic]

Great tips! Very inspirational, too! The final card was so intricate AND clever use of those glitter paper scraps. Could you put adhesive on the back of the original glitter paper sheet? Then the scrap flowers would be easier to adhere later. I'm a hoarder too. I save all my foil scraps and use them randomly on paper crafting projects and on junk journal and art journal pages. Gives them a bit of 'POP'. tfs!

[@godschild1305]

I am happy to see this video. Great incentive to take the laminator down off the shelf and dust it off!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@sianevans1178]

Brilliant idea and beautiful cards! Thank you!

[@shellylowery7623]

Love your idea for using the remains of the die cuts, I will definitely be doing that.

[@bethbenson1931]

Thanks so much for this idea. Never would have thought to use it as a mask! I love freezer paper. Taught a class once fusing it to beautiful tissue paper with an iron to make beautiful backgrounds and envelopes. Brown butcher paper should work too because it has a shiny side also. 😊

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Great idea! Thanks for watching!

[@toniphillips4978]

I owned a quilt shop for years and used freezer paper for stenciling on fabric. Works great with an iron great tips for those who have never used it.

[@donnajosephsonblatz5058]

Love that trifold. Thanks Stephanie.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks so much!

[@jodyhehn6856]

The flower cards are so beautiful. I am going to try this freezer paper stencil technique.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much! Have fun!

[@karenkunesch]

I’m putting freezer paper on my shopping list now. This is very creative and I will be trying this out.

[@cw4608]

Impressive! I love the great ways you used the die off cuts as well

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you!

[@heatherkybyscz2588]

Love this idea and can't wait for my next day off to try it! You do beautiful work and you are a natural instructor, with clear and concise directions! I'm so glad I stumbled onto this video! Thank you for the inspiration! 💕

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words! Thank you for watching!

[@donnafriedman7322]

I love this technique. You made some beautiful card. Thank you for sharing!

[@goilo888]

That’s a great tip. And actually even better than an actual stencil. Because often no matter how careful I am I will usually get some ink or paint under the stencil.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Yes, me too! I love the versatility of this method also! Thanks for watching!

[@craftycs8917]

Hi thanks for sharing your innovative ideas. Your cards look great. Happy Crafting from Scotland.x

[@lynmitchie2443]

Hi Stephanie, the reindeer die is a Cottage Cutz die, and yes it is old, possibly 20 years. I have it in my collection, and after seeing you using the die I will now use it again. Thank you for sharing your wonderful ideas.

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thanks so much for the info! I don’t think I’ve even heard of cottage cutz!

[@casieblevins7253]

Beautiful! I feel like each card could have been its own video (slowed down a tad) to show each technique. This was so innovative and informative. Fantastic projects!

[@InaNutshellCrafts]

Thank you so much!

[@sallygreiner5724]

This was an great videos with lots of ideas. I quilted for years using freezer paper for different techniques. And 30 years ago I used the freezer paper to cut stencils, iron on fabric, and used fabric paint to make a wall hanging. I would never have thought it had so many uses in paper crafting. I am a beginner watercolorist and want to try that technique too. Thanks so much for sharing your

[@emiller7529]

I came across this video and just had to try this technique. It worked beautifully. I used my Glaminator on the foiling setting and only had to run it through once. Once I was able to get the die cut off the original card, I was still able to use it on a second card. Thanks for this fantastic idea. I finally have a use for the freezer paper that was just taking up space in my pantry. 😂

I’m going to have to rewatch this when I not sick. lol. I sort of followed what you were doing,but my sinuses are messed up. So I’ll rewatch it once I’m a bit more coherent. Thanks.
