These cards turned out great and not bulky for mailing, I haven't done a mass make but that's a good idea! Weather is hot here so good time to craft.

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Mel, thank you. Yes, no bulk, great for mailing. I’ve heard it’s pretty warm. We are still on the cooler side.

[@Fit_Kitty]

Ooooooh, thank you, Brenda! They look amazing! I love the Tim Holtz people and how you made the backgrounds. I like how you were able to make so many and tape them together, brilliant. I have added this to my new Playing Card playlist. Joan gave some great ideas in her videos too, so between the two of you, I know what to do now and how to get started. They are doable. Thank you so much, just what I was looking for, much appreciated. Wishing you a blessed day, my friend.

[@brendaclark2703]

Hello miss Kitty, you are so welcome! Thank you for the suggestion! I love altering playing cards as there are so many ways to do them! I hope to see some of your creations dear lady. Have a blessed rest of your day, big hugs 🤗🌹💙

[@nancybassett6995]

Altering playing cards is one of my favorite projects. Taping the cards together before you start is a great idea. Thank you Brenda!

Good evening, thank you so much! Hugs 🤗 🌹

[@theresamccarter1124]

I love mass making things. I make them as basic as I can, then I can add something to coordinate with whatever project I add them to. It makes me so happy to have a lot to choose from…bits and pieces, basic ephemera, things I can use as signature pages, etc. I have never known how to use playing cards, so this was really an inspiration!

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Teresa, oh yes I’m the same. I will do a bunch and then dress them to what I need them for. Have a blessed day 💙🌹

[@BookwormsBuddy]

Good Morning Brenda! This would certainly make it easy to do so many at a time. What a great idea! I say you do you, there is no right or wrong really is there? These really turned out so cute! I usually make stuff as I need them. I am getting a small stash of things I have made. So that is good. Thanks so much or sharing!

[@brendaclark2703]

Good morning Janie, right? So easy to hold them all together. Exactly! No wrong way to do them. Thank you so much. I think having some stash is good especially if you send mail, or want to add to journals. Take care dear lady, have a blessed day

[@kathleens7898]

Such FUN!!! Thanks for sharing ALL the tips for mass-making!!! Have a blessed day!!!

[@brendaclark2703]

Good morning Kathleen, thank you! And I didn’t get too messy! Haha , have a blessed day

[@debraphillips4736]

Love your ideas, just find it hard to see them good with my old eyes. Can you possibly bring them closer to camera when finished with each one. Thanks

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Debra, thank you so much! Oh yes, I will do that 💙 have a blessed evening

[@lorrainewilson2067]

Hi Brenda! Greetings from Waterloo! Great idea joining them for mass make... dont have access to playing cards (I am housebound) going to use similar size cut cereal box cardboard instead.

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Lorraine, thank you. That works as well! The fun thing about that is you can make them any size , have a lovely evening

[@lorrainewilson2067]

Managed to get about half way through 10 cards. Looking forward to working on them tomorrow. Your video was a great inspiration!

I wondered what artists do with my playing card bundles. They sell like hot cakes, often. This is super cool to see someone actually use cards in this way! TFS!

[@brendaclark2703]

Thanks so much. 🌹

[@beverlynielsen6714]

Good morning Brenda. Altered playing cards are always fun. They are quick, easy and inexpensive. Raining her today and not very warm. The forecast is not great for the month of June. Have a wonderful Day. Love and hugs. ❤

[@brendaclark2703]

Good morning Beverly, oh yes, I agree. We have had rain the last few days, windy and chilly, today the sun is out but it’s not supposed to last. It can get warm any day now. Have a blessed day dear lady. Love and hugs 🤗 💙

[@sherryliberto6749]

That was fun! Thanks for sharing your process. Taping with washi was such a great idea. Have a fabulous day. Sending love and big hugs Sherry 💚

Oh great< I thought I was the only who had tiny pieces of washi all down the side of my desk...lol Bless!! Timmy's tissue paper!! Is there really a wrong way??? Do it your way!! I love those paint brushes, I got a pack from Walmart and Girlfriend, they are better than my expensive professional paint brushes!! Oh yes, I think I would sew around those, man that's going to look so good!! Nope no glare!! Girl, your sparking my creativity!!🎉 I'm so trying to get a grip on my ephemera pieces!! Great process Brenda!! Oh the Tim Holtz people!! They came out glorious!! What a fun creative play, thank you Brenda!! Best part of my day!! Have a blessed day Brenda!! Much Love and Blessings from Texas!!💕💕

[@brendaclark2703]

Good morning miss Kay, wonderful! You are very welcome. It is warm there isn’t it? Not so much heat here yet. Lol comes with the territory right? Desks are a great place to put the extra bits, then I have them for the next projects lol. Oh I never thought about ones from wal mart thanks, I will check them out. I will be sewing yes. I love using Tim Holtz people as they add such character to each piece. Thank you so much for being here! It is always a great day when I see you! Have a blessed day, big hugs, much love 💙🤗🌹

[@TwilaSue]

I was wondering if you decorated both sides??

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Twila , I decorated the one side. I have however done both before when I just want to add them to a pocket.

[@roseannefaubert5471]

What is the clear paper called

[@brendaclark2703]

I’ve use tissue paper from Tim Holtz, sewing pattern tissue, book page and washi tape. I checked to make sure there was nothing else so I hope this helped ❤❤

[@angievance3247]

Does the modge podge leave it sticky? Every time I use it, that is my issue. How do I keep that from happening?

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Angie, I’ve not noticed a stickiness with it , try adding a bit of water? Not sure honestly if that will help. 💙

[@brendaclark2703]

It also may depend on the humidity ❤

[@SaltLifeGypsy68]

I started using Liquitex matte medium a few years ago. For projects like this. Game changer! A little more money, but you can use less. So worth it.

[@brendaclark2703]

@@SaltLifeGypsy68 thanks for that. I’ve not used it before , I too will give it a go. Thanks for commenting 🌹

[@debbyball8201]

Isn't it bad to rub your oxide ink pad in water?

[@brendaclark2703]

Hi Debby, I believe oxides react with water. It makes for some wonderful marks on paper and ephemera we make 🌹
