Press N Seal Technique: Die Cuts Two Ways

[@RijackiTorment]

Using the Press N Seal this way gives me all sorts of ideas. Thank you.

[@sugarbaby1954]

I especially love the watercolor on the craft cardstock, and the big thanks. Big thanks to you.

[@anaa9777]

💕 love these two cards

[@meganharp2422]

Okay these turned out beautifully, all I could think is how patient you must be!? But then I see your awesome fingernails and think yep! She’s very patient! Thanks for sharing:)

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Megan Harp haha..a bit. But the nails don't really take long either just repeatedly doing the same thing :)

[@mamaluvstosew38]

Beautiful card! Thank you for sharing!

[@lisaerica]

Always gorgeous no matter the technique Kelly! My favorite part of crafting is and learning from others. Thanks for sharing and always inspiring.

[@irenejones981]

WOW Kelly, this was a labour of love and I'm not sure I'd have had the patience but the card looks absolutely fantastic. You are so inspirational and you make my days happy.

[@sallycain3716]

Lovely! I liked the bled watercolour look. Really fresh and soft. I love that you video crafters inspire each other, just like you inspire us.

[@susanholland6828]

Wow. Wayyy toooooo much work for me. You did great 👍🏼

[@Bkchester78]

Wow! Just Wow! Love this technique and so glad you shared it! 👍💓

[@amberlindsey7112]

I love this technique. They both turned out gorgeous!

[@samanthamann1523]

BEAUTIFUL cards!!! wow!

[@jeanneboardman2867]

Beautiful cards! As always.😄

[@tami1796]

Thank you for sharing your videos

[@teresaselby3536]

Love the wreaths you colored! They are beautiful yet different from each other. You always do a great job on your cards. Thanks for sharing and have a great week end.

[@influentialolive]

Gorgeous technique,

[@reneecassidy7279]

Those cards are absolutely fabulous! Don't think I could do that with my hands anymore, but such great results!

[@lexygalloway4282]

Wow! You have got skills, girl!

[@Kat-fg3qw]

Wow Kelly a lot of patience. Beautiful results on ur cards.

[@EnchantedwithPoodles]

What!?! Are you crazy?!? They ARE beautiful cards.

[@wendy8184]

Super stunning! I also love how you did that thanks die cut, it really looks amazing

[@renitameares3838]

I love this look and will likely cut tons then sit with my lap table and do the tedious stuff while watching tv or KZbin. Can’t wait.

[@scrapnfever]

Thanks for a new technique! Love your nails...they remind me of mermaids!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

scrapnfever Thanks! Me too :)

[@melvinnieves1964]

The cards are really gorgeous!

[@LizReeves1971]

Beautiful. Thanks for all the tips!💌

[@Gretchen5ful]

Both cards are absolutely gorgeous Kelly! Yes time consuming, but I think it's worth it once in awhile!💜🤗

[@lindaruschmeyer5298]

Awwwwwwwsome!! These cards are beautiful! I think a glass of wine available on my desk would help me a lot. :). TFS

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Linda Ruschmeyer A glass of wine helps us get through a lot of things haha

[@jamesryan4491]

I love the colour palette that you chose!!!!

[@heatherharrison4855]

Oh my goodness they are super but I don't think I have the patients. Well done Kelly.💕

[@deegorgeous]

Wow! I love the one on the craft cardstock.

[@PapercraftsbyCindyellen]

You have an amazong amount of patience. This looks like pulling hair out one at a time.

[@julies.6271]

Oh boy! I have no doubt I don’t have the patience for this technique with the tiny flowers but I might try it on something larger with fewer pieces. Your inner Laura Bassen turned out beautifully and thank you for sharing it with us!

[@loribarker683]

Great cards, love the watercolor & copics

[@susanohalloran222]

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! You must be a very patient person to deal with all of those little fiddly bits! Thanks

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

Wow, lovely cards, great payoff for such meticulous work!!! LOVE THIS!!! Blessings & Hugs!!!

[@judithjarvis2421]

Absolutely gorgeous!

[@erikaelisa30]

I totally admire you, this project would keep me busy for a while, but it's not something would do that often.

[@P1DiscoGina]

Shat up with this mega cuteness! Bless you for having the patience to mess with those invisible micro pieces of paper! This ol girl can barely handle project life cards. Very impressive, chica!

[@trudievick2359]

Beautiful. You have more patience than I do....I would have pitched it after about 20 minutes of petals and leaves popping everywhere. But you persevered and it turned out beautiful. Kudos to you. Thanks for sharing.

[@ericastwilight]

Wow, such involved cards from you, then again most of you scene are too. I love them, the look of inlay or popping up is so lovely. TFS!

[@nioki77]

Love these, you are so talented and explain techniques so well. Glad press n seal is so versatile and an amazing product. When I was doing chemo the nurses suggested using it to hold down the numbing cream over my port and it worked like a charm.

[@Papergrace]

Freaking gorgeous!! And absolutely not what I expected at all!! I'm not sure if I'd have the patience to deal with all of those little teeny, tiny pieces of foam and all that, but the end result is two stunning cards. LOVE!! ♥

[@dpglasser]

It’s beautiful

[@BarryOnness]

Absolutely Fabulous! You must have the patience of Job! My cat wouldn't allow me to make this, but I sure enjoyed watching you do it!

[@MaryNewnham]

Wow. So pretty. So intricate. Watching this, I was thinking “this looks difficult in a tedious kind of way” but the end result is so beautiful ! Thank you Kelly 💕

[@s_rofbear]

Kelly, I loved these! They turned out stunning 😍 I’m so going to make some!

[@wingrdr21]

Such a neat technique..don’t have access to that die but just thinking about some other dies I can use! So pretty!

[@rosycheek6709]

Lovely! I've done something similar with die cut glitter foam. So no colouring, but piecing the die cuts back into place using a paper die cut as a template. It's fiddle but worthwhile!

[@susanbyers7523]

Both beautiful cards

[@teresadoyle1396]

These are so beautiful Kelly and I am one who is crazy enough to make this type of card over and over. LOL They are both so beautiful and I love how you water coloured outside of each image a little. It looks amazing.

[@rosycheek6709]

Teresa Doyle I also do very detailed designs that others think would be maddening. But I find it relaxing when a task takes longer. Less to think about!

[@konxiouscreations387]

Beautiful. I've learned to cut the die from copy paper. It makes it easier to remove once the foam tape pieces are inlayed.

[@inkslinger8883]

I enjoy the inlay technique too. I really like the background (negative piece?) from the Copic colored wreath too. I didn't want that big thanks die set until I saw your video. Thanks, Kelly.

[@GailWhimsy]

Beautiful cards!

[@TypicalStonely]

Patience of a Saint!!! Wow, so fun and satisfying to watch, but I'd honestly rather bang my head on the table repeatedly!!! Hahaha

[@elizabethnetzer5633]

Love, love, love this die. My, you sure have patience, lovely card. TFS

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Oh, different looks good on you. I have to admit, I never thought I would see you do this kind of die cutting. However, you did an amazing job. Both of these cards are beautiful. Great idea to use the negative die cut with the added halo for a second card. Great job! Thanks Kelly for another amazing video. I’m sure you did LB proud!😉

[@ramonasmithson439]

Jennifer McGuire husband invented the press and seal. She talked about it awhile back on one of her videos! Love your channel!!!!

[@kathyaguilar4877]

Wow! Gorgeous!! I don’t have the nimble fingers for this, and absolutely do not have the patience. I do however love both cards!❤️ TFS!!

[@TheSunshineCrafterKellyFusco]

Pieces and parts oh my! Ur more patient than i am. I would have given up. Waaay too small for my man hands. Lol. Beautiful cards! Love the colors!

[@susanherst9521]

Laura made it look so simple. When I tried it, it worked perfectly.......not so much on this one!!

[@02downhome]

Really Pretty !!! I would like to try that....I think the word you were looking for was Reserved...

[@tinapike2066]

Beautiful!!!!!

[@cindybearj]

Oh, Kelly. I salute you. The whole blame thing would have been in the trash if it had been me. TOO MANY DOTS! I was on the edge of my seat and tensed all over while you were doing these cards. I have to go take a Valium now and as God is my witness, I'll never do inlays with that many tiny dots!!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Haha! I'm sorry I stressed you out :)

[@stamps4fungin]

Beautiful. I've seen Jennifer McGuire do this but with 2 pieces of Press and Seal -and she told us that her husband designed this product!

[@debiv7834]

Cute!! Looks like a lot of work!!

[@jane-in6hb]

Beautiful, but as you say, tedious. I don't think I have the patience, but sure wish I did.Maybe I could manage with bigger die cut pieces. Always love your videos.

[@LorettaRodger]

WE ARE NOT ROLLING BACK THE CLOCKS. WE ARE PUTTING THEM FORWARD Here in the USA. Great video as always.

[@wtpb]

Just an idea(and you'll probably kick yourself when you hear it because it would have saved time and been less tedious): you could have put more press n seal on the other (colored) side before taking the back piece off. Then you could have put tape on them all and just flipped them all into place at the same time then removed the press n seal

[@donnathompson5951]

Yes, that is how I do it, too. It is easier.

[@kristinevencel2898]

Hah, Kelly, I can totally relate! I just made 4 eclipse-style cards and needed to cut tiny 1/32” (approx) wide pieces for my sentiments. Groan. But they sure looked wonderful when I was done. 👍🏻👍🏻. These cards are beautiful!

[@Taliamama]

Kelly What are the dies you used, the wreath AND the Thanks ??

[@kelleyfreeman401]

Love these cards, but I'm pretty sure I would have zero tolerance for picking up all those little bitty pieces! However, I am a freak for cutting those little tiny bits of foam tape and peeling off the backing paper. I love it and I know that makes me out of my gourd! Thanks for sharing!

[@wendykidd]

Kelley Freeman - I will let you stick down my foam tape any time!

[@rollonmom]

On the desert storm card, would dry embossing help with the placement of all the flowers.

[@cindyroman-daversa9194]

Two amazing and beautiful cards! You have so much patience...I would have an anxiety attack trying to get those little white pieces out! And I think we set the clocks ahead, no? That means we lose an hour of sleep 😝

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Cindy Roman-Daversa: Yep we do ‘spring’ forward, and I am so not looking forward towards Monday morning, either! 😟😕

[@lizbalaam1937]

Gorgeous. But gee I don't think I have the patience. Hard off to you for trying it.

[@bdbear10]

Lovely cards. What is that nail polish you were wearing? I love it!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

It's a gradient of three colors and since it's been so long I can't remember the names sorry! I know it was purple, navy, and teal.

[@marionlepley2692]

Wow 😊

[@lu-ellenhafner4968]

Would like to see this process on a larger scale design

[@candacekieper4354]

I tried this on some christmas ornaments and yes it is tedious wouldnt do 20 but they are beautiful

[@sharonbeattie4198]

Absolutely gorgeous. Very cool technique.

[@whoooami2090]

Great designs! Couldn’t you put the press-n-seal on the finished portion of you die cuts and the lay them over your card and press them down in one swoop? I think I’ve seen Jennifer do it that way and it mays save you more time. Just a thought. The cards turned out so cute!

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Marilyn Martin: Yes I agree with you, I am certain Jenn did something similar with less stress and time. I do love how both cards turned out though!! Thank heavens for editing! 🤣😆😂👍🏾

[@suzannehyde2827]

Oooh! I was thinking that's what I would do, too! I love to watch your videos, you are such a wonderful artist!

[@theresehudran7635]

At first I thought you were nuts. But you are so right, everyone has a passion for something. Is your craft mat a piece of marble?

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Therese Hudran Nope, it's a well loved Ranger craft mat.

[@randyr-o433]

Gorgeous again. And the card is so pretty too! :-D Let's address the elephant in these videos (inquiring minds need to know): Your nails ALWAYS look fabulous AND with ALL of the video demonstrations you put out each week, do tell how you keep up painting your nails so creatively? ...when I grow up, I want pretty polished nails, too. While making cards. ;-)

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Teresa & Randy R-O Thank you! I repaint them every few days while my husband and I watch the one taped show we have. :)

[@randyr-o433]

(Incidentally, this comment is from Teresa, not Randy). Thanks Kelly!

[@MultiplicityCrafts]

A very nice result - but it would take LOTS of patience! LOL :)

[@wendyodell356]

Beautiful as ALWAYS ❤❤❤ What's the name of the crafter you were referring to?

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Laura Bassen, she's amazing :) Here's her channel kzbin.info/door/FZ3Irht0a1FAvcB33QYq6A

[@wendylittle2385]

Wow

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Amazingly beautiful cards, but a tad too time consuming... More power to you and Laura B! Tfs!😘👍🏾

[@sallyhill6565]

Gorgeous, but not an everyday project for me !

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Sally Hill haha me either :)

[@cardmakingwithcraftconfect9786]

You should of used a quick stick tool, it picks up little things very easy.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Denise Craft Confectionery Prosser Soffa I did try to. Unfortunately, the press n seal was stickier than my quick stix.

[@lu-ellenhafner4968]

Labour intensive, delicate work for old lady me🤪

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

That was beautiful. Too bad that they take so much work and then people just toss them.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

It's okay, I love the process so if they throw it out it doesn't matter :)

[@pamelasertich9850]

Well I am glad you did it and not me. I would probably have killer my cat during that. Gorgeous though for real

[@mangelicalangs2011]

nice cards but i think it is too much work

[@rosaleehowington1860]

PROBABLY NOT FOR ME LOL BEAUTIFUL RESSULTS

[@s_rofbear]

15:40 - the die for this, you have to... ah... what is the word I want... you have to... request it? No. It’s an r word, but I can’t come up with it because my brain won’t operate right now... basically you have to wait a little bit for it, is all I’m trying to say. Is the r word you’re looking for... preorder? 😅

[@s_rofbear]

Ah - just checked the SSS. The word is reserve! I felt like I was playing bingo, I kept trying to think of r words, but none of them made sense! I didn’t think of reserve 😆

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Sarah P hahahah. I sound ridiculous!

[@s_rofbear]

Kelly Latevola not at all! You just sound human! We all have moments like that :P (I have a medical condition that causes problems with thought processing and memory, so I have those moments allllll the time!)

[@caseyslove]

Just for your information, Jennifer McGuire’s husband invented Press and Seal. Isn’t that cool!
