This video is why no company is ever going to approach you about sponsorship. "Use what you have." This is also the exact reason we all adore you and your philosophy. Thank you so much ♥️

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

I'm happy with that. I feel like when I pay for things I can give a true review, unbiased, and feel no obligation to anyone :) I'm not here to pull apart any companies, but I do feel it mainly gives me the freedom to do as I please :) I'm glad that you can appreciate that xx Natasha

[@joannelind6682]

@@NatashaFooteCreative I totally agree, Natasha you are sincere and not forced to promoted certain products, which I love as a limited supply and craft space person myself on low income. Thank you for all your helpful hints and techniques.

[@narcisoballesteros8843]

😊

[@erinwood4968]

I look forward to your videos every other day. When I go to KZbin and there isn’t a video by you, I realize that it’s not until tomorrow 😆 Love your videos. Thank you for all you do ❤️

[@erinwood4968]

DISTRESS INK HACK: I can’t remember who showed this in a video but… They showed: 1) taking your stamp and inking it with Versamark Embossing ink 2) stamp off on scrap paper 3) ink stamp up with Distress ink/oxide 4) stamping onto your project. It worked amazingly! Solid crisp image! Love your videos ❤😊

[@antoniawegin1358]

Yes! This trick also works with other inks. I use it with the Altenew crisp dye mini cubes, which otherwise tend to be blotchy when stamping, and it makes a huge difference

[@shellyrulli5787]

I'm going to try this. Thank you!

[@alliebee345]

Great tip thx

[@pinkmosquito22]

This technique also works great for silicone stamps or any other stamps that don't pick up inks very well!

[@judyk4589]

Good idea! Do you know if this causes any contamination issues with VersaMark ink getting on the the other ink pads? There is probably a minimal amount of ink left on the stamp so maybe it's not a problem?

[@shellyrulli5787]

Very simple yet lovely cards! You're right about the price of alphabet dies. I was fortunate to buy a set on sale. Thank you, Natasha!

[@ellen-marie6692]

These are lovely! The embossing is gorgeous but the addition of the ink makes them pop! Glad to hear your voice sounding better - hope that equals actually feeling better!

[@joannelind6682]

Loving the stepping out of your comfort zone and introducing that dark green as a boarder, makes the card pop!. Ombre effect is gorgeous. ❤

[@nancycrutchfield117]

Love the embossing folders you used! I don’t have any embossing folders must get some! TFS as usual you rock!

[@harriettezmalloy7182]

These turned out great. I really like the dark green you added to the second card. It makes it really stand out against the cracked pistachio color on the card base. Very nice!!

[@jocelyncruickshank365]

Beautiful cards, the dark green border looks really good and once again I can't choose a favourite. I do love those embossing folders 😊 Thank you!

[@lindavinson1273]

Lovely cards. Embossing folders do add so much to a card. I do like how you finished the green card. 🥰

[@yellagnome3947]

Love these cards and wondered if you could just color the top half of the letters so that the colored part is on the white background and the white lower part of the letters is on the colored background.

[@Taitcreates639]

That was fantastic, great tutorial. Have no choice but to use my stash. A lot has changed for me financially due to health and loss of a love one in Dec 22. That’s why I love your channel so much. Use what ya have. Hugs!

[@michelegourd5742]

Natasha, you always inspire me!! I love 3D embossing folders and always want to know different ways to use them!! Thanks so much!! I love that you always say you what you have and that you share ways to do it differently!! YOUR THE BEST!!!🥰🥰🥰

[@bettyselig1528]

Another terrific video full of good tips that result in beautiful results! Your challenge to "use what you have" really helps me (and all of us) become more creative - THANK YOU!!!

[@deballen7031]

Hi. Thank you for sharing these lovely cards, while I really like the fresh, clean simplicity of these cards I do love the texture that the embossing folders add. Plus the ease and speed that these cards can be knocked out with makes them an all-round winner in my book! They lend themselves perfectly for gift sets, too. Thanks again and have a fabulous day.😊

[@karendorius3884]

I love the simplicity of these cards. ❤ Very striking 😂❗

[@brendaelainewaddell1682]

Hi Natasha, your cards and techniques are always appreciated. I especially appreciate when you show us how to fix thimgs after oopsies. Thanks so much. 😊🇨🇦

[@janwarren3665]

Gorgeous cards Natasha! Always learning from you! Thank you so much for the awesome video and inspiration!❤

[@pattyfromherz9965]

Natasha, I am always inspired by you and your creations. I very much enjoy you videos, looking forward to the next one, I thank you very much for sharing😊😊💖💖

[@renatenash7575]

Your cards are always inspiring. Thank you for sharing your ideas with us. These two cards are simple but very elegant. 😊

[@debbiebrewington7635]

These cards are just lovely. Thank you so much for all your shares. Your card ideas are wonderful. You are greatly appreciated! 🤗

[@aquinyc]

This is a great technique. Love the ombre coloring. Laura

[@pamelareynolds2464]

I love how you show how these are done. I found a UK demonstrator but it's can't follow what she does it's hard the way she shows you

[@mrsmcphate]

Really pretty cards!! Simplicity can be beautiful! I LOVE embossed cards but I struggle SO much with them. I find myself avoiding using them, and I have so many! Yours come out amazing. TFS.

[@dise331]

Wow, this is another amazing 'simplicity at its best' technique - love both cards 🌻🌻

[@papercraftingwithenis]

I agree with you. They are gorgeous cards. And, I live embossing on cards, so these are winners with me!❤❤❤

[@Fab10301]

I believe the distress inks are not developed for precise stamping, but for a distress look. That's why the images are not sharp. Lovely card. Love the green and showing the two options for the same look.

[@KWicksable]

If you heat emboss the distress oxide ink with clear embossing powder, you may have gotten the depth of color that you wanted.

[@charlottethien3749]

Natasha , I love the aqua one . They back ground shines , or is that just how I see it ❣️

[@amandamciver6987]

Thanks for the tip Natasha, especially how to use the 'd' as a substitute for the 'p' when spacing the word 'happy' when stamping, and as you say it almost looked identical - I'll certainly be using it. Love the 3D embossing folders and the effect you achieved; I look forward to trying it.

[@FatGayandTired]

I am glad every vid I found your channel a few months back. Creative and so kind and truly an inspiration!

[@lisashearwood-vingoe1027]

These cards are lovely! I love the ombre effect and the embossing and colours are gorgeous. Thanks again for sharing all your ideas. 😁💜

[@zeldaackerman4394]

Love the colors you used on these gorgeous cards Natasha!!

[@rosemarybrown1686]

I have some alphabet dies I have never used, now you have inspired me to use them. Many thanks Natasha 😊

[@melissazabower339]

Shout out to stamp companies: can we get an alpha set with 2 p's? We're all doing happy birthday cards. It would be so nice! I love the orange. 😊

[@kimsinspiredlife]

Fantastic idea to use the mint tape and reuse it until it’s done! #inspired

[@Techartskitty]

Love your ideas and use what you have philosophy. So impressed with what I’ve learned from you. Thanks for what you do!

[@MarietteLeppert]

Love your cards, you have so many great ideas for cardmaking. Thank you.

[@suechapman8580]

I love that you make mistakes and just laugh about it. Beautiful cards. X

[@kirriesummers5219]

I love the clean, precise borders on your blended inks. I'm using your practice of inking around the edges of the mat in order to save cardstock. Thank you for your videos, Natasha. They give me opportunities to try something new. 🥰🇨🇦💖

[@qtem1]

Thank you Natasha ! Lovely simple cards that stand out on their own. 😊

[@denaheck1506]

Loved the dark green touch. Lovely cards

[@kiwipommiegirl]

I'm always inspired by your videos Tash, these two cards are simple yet beautiful! tfs.x

[@robinwlodarczyk]

I love how these turned out!

[@BamBam12345]

Beautiful cards ~ thanks so much for sharing!! 💕 💕

[@janetingacollins6409]

I so look forward to other cards you create with the postcard folder. So cute!

[@lissetsanchez5316]

Natasha, I am always inspired watching your videos. I feel so encouraged to make a card as soon as I watch one of your videos! Thanks 🌺

[@margaretmcleish8680]

Natasha I made a poor version of this card yesterday and was going to post a pic but I don’t know how. Thank you for your time and advice I love that you let us share your creativity.

[@Jenifer.flute20]

I love the first card 1. Because I love that embossing folder and 2. Orange is my favorite color, and orange and white so soooo goooood

[@colleenbuiles9171]

Simple yet gorgeous Natasha! You are always so cheerful and always an inspiration. tfs❤

[@Malmo117]

Lovely cards! TFS 🙏😎🌸

[@Mari-cre8s]

Beautiful CAS cards!! I love how you show us various ways to achieve the same look, using what we have!! 🧑🏼‍🎨😀🤗

[@sarahphillips1031]

I really love your card ideas and inspirations but I have to say that the green card really turned out well. My sons favourite colour is green and seeing this has given me the inspiration to try both my lighter and darker green together and see what I can make.

[@katerinadaniel640]

I love how you approach supplies and creativity, Natasha. And I really love how you embrace and include your littles in your creative time. Are you a Play Centre family? The way you talk about your children makes me think of my Kiwi friends who went through PlayCentre.

[@sharonb.7867]

I love the cards you created! ❤️ The sign of a true artist/creator is one who can take a boo-boo and "fix" it! You, of course did that today. No matter if you'd trimmed the panel of added another color like you did~its all good!! Be well ❤

[@carolg.6838]

Yes, inspiring! Beautiful and quick cards. Do embossing folders come in different sizes? I don't know if I will ever buy a machine but wonder if they would fit the mini machines. I would also then buy the geometric dies. And maybe alphabet dies. I made a card in a hurry last week. Had a rectangle of pink watercolor chevrons. Stamped 3 pink daisies on it and adhered it to the front with a white border. Stamped Happy Birthday inside .It was just right. You no doubt were the one who inspired that card. Thank you.

[@julieburrows4857]

Beautifully simple cards again!!! I always struggle to use my embossing folders, its just a bit of a crafters block for me. Thanks for the inspiration Natasha❤👍

[@JessPlansAndCrafts]

I am in love with the half-ombre background idea! Especially with texture from embossing folders 😍 I think I'm going to try making the first card, but ink the letters half way up on opposite sides of the background to help them stand out. So if the bottom of the card is ombre, I'll leave the bottom of the letters white and ink the tops so they stand off the white background. Like, having that crisp background line line up with the center of the letters of that makes sense... Thank you for always providing so many options and making crafters of all budgets and skill levels feel like we can make beautiful cards, too! It helps me cut back a bit on my spending 😊 Thanks for sharing! 💕

[@cindym1070]

I was thinking the same thing.😉

[@3catmom844]

Beautiful cards as usual, I too love, love, love embossing folders!

[@qtem1]

Such an adorable card. I love the frames. 😊

[@qtem1]

Such cute cards, Natasha ! I love both colours. 😊

[@greenegirlsstudio101]

You ROCK! I love the fonts on both "Happy"s. I always learn something new. I have watched and rewatched so many of your videos. And thank you so much for numbering the videos, it is sooooo much easier to find them again 💜💜💜 •Bets•

[@arteriasartsinteriordecor4872]

I am a fan of the oxides, and Ranger permanent inks as well.

[@phinnyzuril5314]

I have watched every single one of your videos. You are so creative and talented. Thank you for all you do!

[@coolstamper]

When stamping words with distress oxides, stamp them in your MISTI stamp tool, or whatever stamping tool you use. Then if it doesn’t stamp right you can always stamp it again to get the look you’re looking for. 💕

[@blackitten2]

Another great video! Those cards are so special. Thanks for sharing.

[@JessKing-xi4gt]

Aww Natasha, those cards look great! 😊 I’ve got some 3D embossing folders but I forget to pull them out and use them. 😉 This could be a good incentive if I just want to pull a card together quickly but it still look effective. Maybe I could find a good Christmas themed 3D embossing folder to cut down on time making my Christmas cards. Thanks for sharing your talents as always 😊❤

[@debpotter8315]

I always enjoy your videos. You turn somethi g simple into true beauty

[@sophiemsmply4you572]

Truly inspirational. Beautiful cards ❤

[@maxinethomas9380]

Beautiful cards, fabulous ideas. 💕 Thank you Natasha your work is amazing. Please could you tell me where you obtained your O centre ruler. Been looking for one for ages. Thank you. 😊

[@beverlyball6403]

Great cards! You are really good at blending...I am not! 😂 I'll practise some more and see if I can get a better result.

[@aletheageorge162]

Me too! Natasha makes it look so easy but mine never look that good

[@teresazuehls783]

Simple cards but so pretty and yourvtight they would make great masculine cards depending on the color of ink.♥️

[@feliciashaw4708]

Absolutely stunning Natasha!

[@mariecamus2264]

Fabulous crisp clean card 👌. Can you tell me what different card stocks you use please. 😊

[@ebatkinson482]

Postage from USA to NZ is half the price from USA to Australia. Postage sucks

[@ruthjames715]

Beautiful cards as usual Natasha. Ruth down under.

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

Thank you Ruth from Down Under - Hope Winter is treating you ok!

[@karenjudy6936]

I love your use what you have mentality and that you don't do videos to promote the latest and greatest products. I have soooo much product that I've never gotten to use yet and so appreciate your ideas on how to use them now. You are one of my favorite KZbinrs and I always look forward to your next video!! Please keep them coming!

[@jackiefarr5703]

A very inspiring videò. Thank you for sharing.

[@jeangemmel7895]

Natasha could you please make a video for a 3"x2" box envelope, I would love to see how you would make it as I really need some of them. xx Jean from Scotland.

Hey Natasha! Beautiful cards! TFS Hugs!

[@corimacraft-roseraran6187]

Hi Natasha! I'm a fan of you!! I really like the clean and simple style you have. Congrats!! May I ask you a question regarding how do you use the ink blenders? I'm wondering if you use the same ink blender for all kind of inks or if, by contrary, do you have ink blender for pigment inks and another for dye inks even if they have the same color. Thanks a lot and grettings from Spain! Roser

[@nancyskinner5207]

I like how you fussy cut the word Birthday.
