Never Ending Card | Infinity Card | Valentine's Series 2019

[@karolhall699]

Made on of these years ago for my mother. She had suffered a stroke and was in a nursing home. She loved the card and would flip it over and over again and say love it love it. She had not spoken many words at the time so the card really made us all smile when we heard her speak.

[@MixedUpCraft]

How lovely Karol, this is why I love making and giving people cards. :)

[@Sunnyside--Up]

That's a heart feeling very special story. I never really paid much attention until recently how important these cards can become. Some may take an enormous amount of time such as, it took me 4 days to prepare a birthday card for my daughter. She has birthday in April, 2 months from now lol. I have never done anything alike. I used to spend hours trying to pick a card never make a card. Precious joy we forget to share sometimes, but this is one of the ways. :)

[@juliejones6322]

Thank you, I stumbled across your version of the infinity card today 1/13/2023. . I love that it is all handmade and not from Dies or machines.

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

Thank you for precise directions.. I get to make an interactive card for a card hop for this Saturday and I have been wanting to learn how to make this one and I just learned how to make it today and Now I think I have it down. One other gal failed to mention that the bottom tape side needs to go on the bottom once you flip it over. You actually gave precise directions on the taping part and I greatly thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Again Love Your Card. Love the tutorial so smoothly put together and the results are to die for. Yours is the 5th video on Never Ending cards I've watched today. And the perfect one. Only takes two base sheets of cardstock. That's so much less than the one that used 4. I bought a cutting die to make these but not happy with the SMALL size in general for the card I wanted to make & was thinking 8x8 inch. Now that I see how well your 6x6 came out and fits in your hand I'm rethinking that it might be a better size fit for what I have in mind. An HP card. First up 9&3/4's brick wall to go through. Next tickets for Hogwarts. Mauraders map of course with surprise party for the two kids who's BD's are within a week of each other. Kids are in their 70's and super HP fans mind you. A couple who were sweeties in their high school years but married different partners and had children then years later in their 60's found each other as singles again and makes a great luv story doesn't it. Anyway also did enjoy your mirror stock. Just happens I have a bundle of it in various colors on hand and wondering how I'd get the most use out of it. Also I'm going to check your die cut font. I love your XO font. Thanks for the share just beautiful through and through.

I love these cards and have made quite a few. For anyone suffering from dementia these make great memory cards. As you open each fold it reveals a picture of family or friends, you can add their birthdays and other relevant information. I use them for my mother and they are a great help. Thanks Sam , so glad you have shown this again X

[@MixedUpCraft]

Sounds wonderful Elaine. :) x

[@awkwardartist7628]

That ring is the BOMB! Love the card too.

[@Sunnyside--Up]

Special occasions require special attention for memories to last longer than we may expect. Sometimes it can be a given when over done. I have this card on my next project for my loved ones on my list. Thank you for sharing your experience for I think this is one of the ones that may have a lasting suprise effect. Wow... what a special choice of a card. It's Magic! You are so good in explaining.

[@yteldee]

Beautiful cards! I’ve made a few but always have trouble decorating them. The gold and silver make them even more special.

[@naydazzle1519]

You make this look so easy. I'm going to try this. Thank you🤗

[@pennymeyer3416]

This IS the easiest (& 1 of the prettiest) of these cards I've seen!! I've tried to make them before & have found SO MANY people don't explain/show this well at all, so TY, TY, TY for doing a great job. I appreciate you talent/time in sharing this with us.

[@MixedUpCraft]

Your very welcome Penny, and thank you for your kind comment. :)

[@EstherLTurner]

My kids love giving these cards for birthday parties - they are always a big hit! Yours are beautiful.

[@eviedun]

[@Renee292929]

[@yanapritchard4797]

Just made one for a good friend of mine but used photos of him and the family to decorate each segment. He loved it. Thank u for your tutorial

[@triciashepherd1307]

Great cards. Thank you for the tutorial 💕💕💕

[@verblu8507]

This is a fun card to make! Thanks for reintroducing it again! The foil cardstock is so beautiful. Your cards are wonderful! God bless!!!

[@tinabento-filipe191]

Love never ending cards I haven't made one for a while. Lovely decoration Sam.

[@mistyobarr8723]

Thanks for your tutorial! I did something just a bit different in the gluing together. I put my vertical piece back on my scoring guide and then carefully placed my horizontal piece. This made it so easy to get top and left to lineup. Repeated for next sheet by putting next vertical piece on scoring guide and laying 3 sheet combo onto it. My card is lined up and perfectly square.

[@kayvallance9560]

thank you so very much. you are so clear in all your tutorials. i sincerely appreciate the amount of work that goes into these.

[@dorotheawaring1840]

This is soooo cool! I’m fascinated! Thank you!

Wow what a great card, love the paper that you used

[@karens5618]

Hi Sam, I haven't made one of these for a while, but recently I had it in my mind to make one, so this is great timing. The tutorial was wonderfully detailed as usual and refreshed my memory. I especially like the size of your card, I think the one I did was A2 or A6 so this is much better. You have decorated your cards so beautifully. You are so inspiring and your tutorials are perfect. Thank you so much. Best Wishes :)

[@MixedUpCraft]

What an amazing card Sam. I was thinking of doing something special for my grand daughter who has just needed to change school and this is just the thing to cheer her up. I will use my Gorjus stash. Thank you for your tutorials Sam. I really appreciate how you take time to go over and over and over what to do as I am Dyslexic and it takes a while to sink in. xox I will join your groups too.

[@MixedUpCraft]

My weekend goal now, thank you!!

[@meganmullin-robinson9258]

I was first introduced to your amazing designs by a Cricut FB group that I'm in - I'm hooked! I've made a few already and am working my way through them!! Just curious, is there a reason you use double-sided tape and not glue for attaching the base? Can glue be used? Thank you so much and thank you for providing such great tutorials on making lovely cards!!

[@julieharris1830]

Gorgeous x

[@vanderlouisebrowning8708]

Been wanting to give this a go but other ties are so confusing so happy you have made this one :) :) will give it ago :) in the next few weeks x

[@vanderlouisebrowning8708]

[@valrodgers8889]

Love never ending cards

[@cindypurvis2485]

So pretty! Have you done this in 5 x 7?

[@GinaLovestocraft]

Beautiful ❤️

[@dawnmiller5371]

Hi Samantha. I love your tutorial. I tried to find the one you mentioned about the 8x8 larger infinity card tutorial but I couldn't find it. Could you please share the link to it? Thank you so much!

[@tillyortiz8942]

I did make this card using the 4x2 dimensions. My mats are 7/8 & DSP is 3/4. However, when I went to put it together I had directional paper & I guess I put on wrong cuz now it's upside down. When I flip it 1 way I see 2 panels instead of 2 squares. Oh well. I'll try it again!! It was very easy though. You can make 2 cards from 1 sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 paper though. I'll watch your video again to get the right was to assemble it!! Its an amazing card though!! LOVE your inspiration.

[@MixedUpCraft]

Sounds great Tilly, I'm glad it worked out well for you :)

[@ramonasmithson439]

Love !!!!!

[@moiracoleman5087]

Thank you!

[@tillyortiz8942]

I normally don't make cards, but yours are amazing! I will definetly be making this card. Can you let me know if this works with 4x4 square? I love your paper packs, very unique. Where do you get your paper from, I'm from US.

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hi Tilly, yes you can make a 4" x 4" version. The papers are available from, Hobbybase, Hobbycraft, Craft Stash and Amazon. They all offer international shipping but prices may be high. Trimcraft who make the papers will be opening an Amazon US store soon and I know Michaels stock some of the First Edition papers I use. Sam :)

[@jacquievogler9038]

I absolutely LOVE making these. Just one question, do you include a note as to "how to open" or just send it and hope the recipient figures it out. I made several and showed them off to friends of mine, they were amazed. Thanks so much for making this video!!

[@MixedUpCraft]

I have done for other fun fold cards in the past, but not this one, I always try my cards out on my dad first, who has no clue about cardmaking...if he can do it then I don't send instructions hehe, this one naturally moves as you hold it, so people soon pick it up :) Glad you enjoyed it. Sam

[@Bindersandcash19]

Just made one by cutting up a 8 x 8 card works ok but have tiny gap not sure make difference, not decorated yet

[@maryshort7183]

What printer do you have to print on cardstock? My HP won't print on cardstock always jams. Love the card

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hi Mary, I have a basic Canon printer and I load one piece of cardstock at a time. Been doing it for years and works great with no jamming.

[@maryannloo]

if I wanted to make a smaller version of the 6x6 (Like a 5x5), where would the score mark be? Is there a formula?

[@MixedUpCraft]

There is no formula as such. You need to be able to half it and half the sides as well. Play around with scrap card until you get it right.

[@maryannloo]

@@MixedUpCraft thank you!!! I tried making a 5x5, and your method worked.

[@rdecook651]

if you make the 8" card and use 8 x 4" cardstock, are the score lines the same?

[@MHoWsc]

The folds would be at 2" from the edges

[@AKgalStamps-Donnamarshall]

How do your large squares come out ...they are attached? I’m so confused... lol

[@MixedUpCraft]

Ummm, its harder to explain. The video is very clear, you make your squares when you do your score line. Your only applying glue to the small rectangles and never the large squares. I hope you work it out :)

[@AKgalStamps-Donnamarshall]

Mixed Up Craft my hubby helped me figure it out. Key was only folding on score lines and using strip double sided tape from stampin up. Turned out great!

[@natalieyanez2373]

Instead of using double-sided tape, is a glue stick okay?

[@alexsinging4555]

1 and a half in cm ?

[@BarlowSmith]

Wish there was an “I adore it” option & not just a 👍or 👎

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you so much, Carol. x

[@nic214469]

i made this and absolutely love it. i tried making the envelope on my we r memory keeper punch board 6x6 and it doesn't fit, made a2 and a6 still doesn't fit am I doing something wrong.... Even went bigger and its a no go.

[@PapercraftsbyCindyellen]

Because on some of the envelope boards the measurements are wrong. Mine came with an updste sticker. I'm in bed, and i *think i remember it's a 9" square score at 4? I'll look it up and post tomorrow.

[@MixedUpCraft]

I know a while back We R Memory Keepers had batches made with incorrect measurements and offered free stickers to replace the wrong ones, also I find I get much better precision but using the ruler measurement for the first initial punch and then I rotate my paper 180 degrees and do the same again and then for the other 2 sides I just line up the score lines. Check out my "How to use the We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board" tutorial as I explain it all better there. :)

[@nic214469]

@@PapercraftsbyCindyellen ty so much

[@nic214469]

@@MixedUpCraft thanks

[@PapercraftsbyCindyellen]

Ok, just looked it up: it's a 9.5" square, score at 4 3/4. I find they fit better if you score one side, turn it 180*, score the absolute opposite side, then connect them. I don't know why it works better that way, but it does.

you copied my instructions exactly from just cards magazine....
