Making Christmas cards using recycled cards or your stash 138

It's been so long since I have posted a video on KZbin. I've missed you all. In this video I will recycle Christmas cards. I will also share with you all what has gone on. It's a long rambling video. If you don't like those don't hesitate to fast forward, mute or increase the speed to view it :)

I have missed you Vicky and was so pleased to see you on KZbin tonight. You were the first crafter I ever watched on KZbin and you inspired me so much to invest in this hobby. I have spent many many hours over the past few years watching your videos. I have sent you cards and happy mail a few times and was thrilled to receive a card back from you at one time. I can't tell you how much pleasure you have given me and i want to send you my very best wishes at this time. It was obvious that you were taking on way too much and you deserve to slow down and enjoy life. I too have had a tough year, as my husband lost his battle with cancer just recently. But being able to watch your videos over the years has been a happy diversion, so thank you for that. May you have a peaceful Christmas and may the New Year bring you good health and happiness. Best wishes Vicky from Tasmania, Australia.

Welcome back Miss Vicky. We sure have missed you.

[@lynneb9946]

It was a nice surprise to see the notification for a video from you. I am glad that you are doing better. Life's whirlwinds can really take a toll on us. I miss your videos but completely understand the decision you had to make. I have been watching your videos for many, many years. Your channel is different than most others. I don't come away from your videos feeling the need to buy more products. Thank you for that. I will be watching for my next notification! Take care of yourself.

[@CraftingVicky]

I believe we have SO much stuff already that there's no need to purchase more. Plus I do want to make it so that anyone can take the hobby and enjoy it. ☺

[@lynneb9946]

@@CraftingVicky That is so true. It took me longer than it should have to live by that. I have so much card making supplies that I could open a store!! LOL

[@CraftingVicky]

Oh, I'm so happy you like it!

[@jackieburgio5834]

Thinking of you - Have a wonderful holiday season.

[@CraftingVicky]

Thank you. Have a wonderful holiday season as well!

[@mangobaby2]

I’m sorry you’ve been going through so much in your life. I can relate to the falls because I fall a lot. At my age it’s a scary thing. Your card turned out totally adorable. it’s giving me so many ideas about cards that I get from different charities that I normally wouldn’t feel like I could use since I make my own cards so I appreciate your post today

[@CraftingVicky]

So glad that you are finding inspiration.

[@dareehyde2699]

Stunning card xxxx

[@CraftingVicky]

Thanks so much!

[@angelaadams9806]

Yaaaaaay, you're back

[@CraftingVicky]

☺

[@conniebartch9656]

Sorry you’ve had such a mess. Take care of yourself. Your cards are very cute. ❤

[@CraftingVicky]

So glad you like them!

[@helenthefammember9275]

Hi Vicky, it's good to see you! I have been thinking about you a lot. I wish good wishes for you and your family, and even if it's once a month to see you that would still be awesome!

[@CraftingVicky]

I really appreciate the thought, thanks so much!

[@deeannafreshwaters3282]

So happy you are back!!!

[@greetjeb7030]

Glad to see you back en hear that you are feeling better! Love to see you recycling cards, as always😊

[@CraftingVicky]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@elizabethdriver8440]

Very nice cards--love the idea and I do not mind fussy cutting! I will certainly miss u on u tube. I will try to go to patreon more---have already rewatched old videos. You must take care of YOU and family first!!!! We will survive although we will miss you greatly! I wish I could make purchases from your Etsy store, but having cleaned out my parents house and been a collector myself, I have alot of items that I would like to get rid of myself!!!!! Even if we get a card from you in Feb, we will enjoy it very much--so do not worry!!!! Enjoy your birthday and Christmas and do not dwell on the "Annis Horribilis" as Queen E. said!! Best wishes always, XOXO

[@CraftingVicky]

that is a good way to call the year! I should start saying that 😂

[@aprilcary5335]

I'm so glad to hear you are getting better. I pray you will keep healing in mind and body. :-) These cards are so beautiful. You are the first person I ever saw that recycled Christmas cards, and I've been hooked ever since.

[@CraftingVicky]

I'm so glad that you enjoy these :)

[@patriciadee2804]

It's so nice to "see" you again, Vicky. Sorry to hear that you've been having a tough go of it. The flooding is a horrendous thing to have to go through. It haven't had that happen to me but I know some of my neighbours have. Remember, YOU come first! We love you and we miss you but you have to take care of You first of all. Crafting Vicky is the first KZbin videos I started to watch and when I open KZbin it's your page that pops up. I hope you received the Hallowe'en card I sent you. That was before the postal strike so I'm guessing you got it. Until next time, take care of yourself.

[@CraftingVicky]

I didn't get your card :( Thank you for all of your support!!! 😍

[@LadyTomoyo1]

So happy to see you! Glad to hear you are feeling better. Do what you need to do to keep it that way.

[@CraftingVicky]

thank you!

[@gloriaeike4973]

What a treat seeing a video from you this morning. You have been through a rough year for sure, may 2025 bring you only good things and many enjoyable moments! Loved the new takes on your Christmas cards, great idea.

[@CraftingVicky]

So glad you enjoyed the video.

[@judybs1]

Take care of self first. Enjoy your cards❤

[@CraftingVicky]

[@anniequinn]

Allo Vicky - happy to see you this morning. This has truly been a year from hell. I'm so sorry about everything you've gone through. 🥂 here's to a great 2025!!!💕

[@CraftingVicky]

yes it's been a year lol I really hope that 2025 is one with calm and happiness!

[@francesinglis6078]

Hi Vicky I’m delighted to hear you are feeling better, I tried to join your patron page but something went wrong I will try again I’m still waiting for my second colonoscopy ( which should have been May ) still having problems with my stomach. We also bought another pup who is now 8 months old another black spaniel we called her Beth after our 1st dog as she is going to be our last, I’m not upset 😡 with you I understand what you are going through, how long the strike going on? It happen to us one year and a lot of people never got there cards etc, to the people who are upset they should get a live .. I left the playground 60 years ago I’m so glad to hear you have a strong husband. X x ❤❤

[@CraftingVicky]

I'm so sad to read that you are still having issues!!! I sure hope that you will find the solution. How fun to have a new puppy! Spaniels are pretty active so I'm sure she keeps you on your toes!

[@ellysimonse9869]

Wat heb ik je gemist....groetjes uit Nederland.❤❤❤

[@angelaadams9806]

I like the cards

[@CraftingVicky]

Thank you!

[@angelaadams9806]

I'm so sorry you have went through all this. I am just to the smashed vanity portion of this video. I try to keep in mind that there are some good ppl left in the World, but the rotten ones really do make themselves known. 😢

[@CraftingVicky]

yes it was a mess.... I couldn't believe that people would actually do that! But yes you are right there are plenty of people that are nice.

[@paulaford1522]

I have really missed you and your videos. But I do understand. You health and your family comes first. I will miss seeing your videos I wish you could find a way to do more than one video a month but I don't understand why you have to cut down. I'll be praying for you 💖

[@CraftingVicky]

I am looking forward to being able to do more. Thank you so much for your kind words.

[@deeannafreshwaters3282]

Don't worry about what others think...you do you ❤. Take care of yourself first.

[@CraftingVicky]

Thank you so much! Mean a lot!!!

[@christianeriverin7999]

Heureuse de te revoir Vicky et que tu ailles mieux. La santé est si importante, mais elle revient toujours, je crois que les miracles existent. Une promesse pour des jours meilleurs t'est destinée dans un proche futur. Passe un beau Noël, car il sera beau! 😀😇

[@CraftingVicky]

J'espère vraiment un beau Noël pour nous tous! À date nous avons un très bel automne.

[@christianeriverin7999]

Thank you for the video Vicki. You do what you need to for your health and family. Those of us who love you will stick by you. I look forward for your December video. God bless

[@CraftingVicky]

Thank you so much for your understanding! ☺

[@dawnmonette1138]

I am so sorry to hear of your troubles. I wish I had the funds to join petrean but that is not possible now< I am hoping in the near future I can. I would never hold any of this against you. It is definitely a difficult decision to make and it is most important for you to take care of yourself.

[@CraftingVicky]

Thank you so much for your support and kind word. It means so much to me.
