Craft With Me - Altered Playing Cards With Doors!!

Hi Guys,
Today we are using up our playing cards. These were not my original project idea, but I’m so happy with the way they turned out. We’ll be using small hinges and some slide closures. These are super easy and a lot of fun to make. I hope you will enjoy this project idea and give it a try.
Thanks so much for watching.

[@wendymechelle3758]

I love how much you use hardware on your projects. I love all you do. Thanks for sharing.

[@SunsetCrafts]

If I can I would add it to everything. I love the look of any type of hardware on my projects, so you’ll be seeing a lot more of that. Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching Wendy

[@karenwilson3172]

Oh my goodness Maggie…these are incredible! I haven’t even finished watching the entire video but I am so blown away with your creativity!! Just had to pop on and say …WOW!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Karen, you are so sweet. Thank you so much for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed this project. They were so much fun to make.

[@LaurieEtchison]

You might be able to find those little closures on the back of picture frames. They’re often used to hold the back of the picture frame in the outer frame, if that makes sense. I probably have a dozen or so old frames packed away in storage. Thanks for sharing another cute project.😊💕📚

[@melindamarie6139]

GREAT idea!!!

[@suannejefferies4240]

You could always cut a point closure out of heavy cardstock, punch a hole in the end & add the brad! 😊

[@SunsetCrafts]

Thanks Laurie. I’m sure you gave others ideas on how to get them. I have plenty for now. Thanks for watching

[@mystichris1543]

So darned CUTE - and a fun way to use up those playing cards and all that washi I have stashed away, not to mention the Tim Holtz "people" too! You are VERY creative - love these. TFS!

[@SunsetCrafts]

I appreciate you watching. Have a blessed day

[@theolachapman6126]

You are the most amazing person where do all these ideas come form this idea is genius thank you Theola

[@SunsetCrafts]

You are so sweet Theola. Thank you so much. So happy you liked this project. It was a lot of fun to put together.

[@pjfoltz8810]

Those slide closers have a name because if you search for mini metal slide closers you never find them. They are called Metal picture frame turn fasteners

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi PJ, thanks but I have since added the correct name in the description of the video right after I posted it. I appreciate your help though. Thanks so much for watching

[@kimberlymolitor354]

Postage stamps would be a great addition in a tiny sized grouping!! I have tons to use! These are super cute!!!🥰🥰🥰

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Kimberly, postage stamps would look so cool too. Definitely use what you have. I’m sure it will look amazing. Thanks for watching

[@irhonda31]

OMG Maggie, this is so clever! This is one of my favorites that you have made! Possibilities are endless - could use as a secret journaling spot. It’s a tough call, but I think the one with the couple sitting inside is my favorite. 😊❤ Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤

[@SunsetCrafts]

Really?! That’s awesome. I’m so glad this topped your list. Definitely can be customized to match any project. I had another say she was going to add pictures of her granddaughter to a journal she’s making for her daughter. Loved that idea too.

[@cyndiibbotson758]

Your ideas are incredible - I accidentally discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago when I was searching for the ID cards and I am so pleased I did - you aren’t just duplicating other ideas, your stuff is original and so fun to make and doesn’t involve expensive products - I really appreciate that what you do is doable and I always end up satisfied with what I make - thanks for being generous with your ideas - take care - oh and this will be my weekend project 👍🏻

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Cyndi, welcome to my channel. I appreciate your kind words. It means so much to me that you’re liking my content and that I explain clearly enough for others to follow along. I would love to see your version of this project. It’s always so fun to see other peoples take on what I’ve made. Thanks so much for watching

[@christineeagan3476]

I can't tell you how much I love this idea! I make small shadow boxes out of match boxes,I'm so excited to make some of these. LoveTim Holtz's line. Thank you

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Christine, I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed this project. And Wow, making shadow boxes out of match boxes…so creative!!! Thanks for watching

Hey Chris, do you have a video to show us what your shadow boxes look like? or how to make them? I sure like to see a few. Thank you.

Hi Micael, glad I was able to stir up some creativity. Thanks so much for watching

[@Pattiemarie3]

Such a fun cute way to do our cards. I also want to add that I have never seen how to use the hard ware. Yay thank oh yes on using paper dolls. 💕😊🎶🐩🌸

[@babsinoz]

What a fabulous idea

[@SunsetCrafts]

Thanks so much for watching

[@tracynelson3279]

I absolutely love these! I have so many Tim Holtz paper dolls. This is a great idea to use them up. I was going to run out and get hinges but thought i could use bits of cloth and reinforce cardstock and glue together, then put the brads thru that. This would keep costs down too. I can't wait to try this!

[@joycebergthold3170]

I like your idea with the cloth as a hinge!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Great idea Tracy. So glad you are working with what you have. That’s amazing. Thanks for watching

[@suzyallen1726]

Maggie you did it again. I'm glad you made the mistake on card size because I think we all would have had it happen. I have to try to look for something that looks like a hinge. I'm making a journal for my daughter and I think I'll put my granddaughters pictures inside

[@kimberlymolitor354]

Great idea!! 🥰

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Suzy. It’s definitely better that I figure out the mistakes before you do. Your idea of adding your granddaughters pictures inside the cards is fabulous! That’s going to look amazing!

[@janicestookey8544]

I tried your Etsy shop and it wouldn’t come up.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Janice, unfortunately I don’t have any listings in my shop at the moment. That’s why nothing will come up, but I do plan on adding mystery goodie bags and maybe another glue bottle collection soon. Thanks for watching

[@sandikalin636]

Love these ❤❤❤

[@MsLouisVee]

I love Tim Holtz and his line

[@SunsetCrafts]

Me too!!! Can’t get enough!! Thanks for watching Louise

[@janicehetrick3]

Oh yes I was sitting here saying, you forgot your little door fastener. Oh no don't glue that down yet, and then you noticed it and fixed it. ❤ It's always good to laugh at ourselves sometimes. ❤

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Janice, that’s all I can do is laugh at myself. It’s better than getting frustrated. It’s all about rolling with the punches. Thanks for watching
