Craft With Me - Let’s Make Our Own Ephemera Snippets!!

[@tammykirwan6308]

I love to fussy cut, I sat yesterday afternoon for a few hours catching up on my favorite shows, all the while fussy cutting a ton of things. I too, find it very relaxing

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Tammy! Me too! I love to fussy cut, hand sew all that detailed stuff. Thanks for watching!

[@kidsmom100]

I trip on air ALL THE TIME!! And I am totally stealing "Don't Push Me" love that!!!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Heather. Nice to know I’m not the only one. Lol. Yes girl, take it. I even have my husband saying it. He sees me tripping and he’ll tell my kids, “Hey don’t push your mother!” 😂😂

[@dianar9429]

Hi Maggie! LOL you are not the only one! I stamp like this on left over edges of book pages and scraps.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Friend! That’s a great idea. Thanks for watching!

[@EG3387]

I love fussy cutting too. I use cream colored lined paper from a journal I got from my local thrift store. It helps to keep them straight. TFS

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Erika! Love you tip about the lined paper. Cream colored paper is definitely my favorite. Thanks for watching

[@gAIL-w7r]

I always say I am just being graceful when I trip over something!

[@SunsetCrafts]

That’s right!! Lol. Thanks for watching Gail

[@karenshields395]

Your not the only one, I thought I was the only one. Glad to commiserate.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Karen, I feel very comforted know I am not the only one. Thanks for watching

[@scaryfactfiction]

Hi Maggie! Love your videos. I am convinced you / we can make anything we set our mind(s) to. Also, I fell while standing still and sprained by ankle recently. I also fell UP the stairs once and my football player crush was behind me! I lost my shoe and it fell down the stairs so I had to wait for everyone to pass by so I could go get my shoe. My friend and I were late to class, so we had to go get a tardy pass and had to explain to the attendance principal what happened. It was hilarious. Fast forward to end of the school year, I thought my football player crush didn't know I existed but when I bravely and asked him to sign my yearbook. He wrote, "To a cute girl even though she can't walk up the stairs. Good luck next year! Bryan." Hahaha. I will never forget that!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi! I love to see what else I can try and recreate. I totally agree. There is always a way to make something unique and beautiful. You’re story is amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing and not making me feel like I’m the only one falling over all by myself. I remember one day we were having a yard sale and I needed to go inside to get change and I missed a step and fell in front of everyone there. They all came to ask if I was ok. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life. Lol!

[@belindawallace5203]

You’re not the only one - I can trip over my own shadow! These are such a great idea ❤

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Belinda! You’re shadow! That’s so funny! I’m having a lot of fun hearing that I am not the only one. Thanks for putting up with my silliness!

[@lorirudolph_retrorudolphs]

Really, really enjoyed this video and started making my own ephemera/snippets with the same Tim Holtz stamps right after I finished watching it. Seriously addictive! I didn’t have a good assortment of card stock, so tea dyed some white card to use. Oh… and I cut my paper into strips first, then stamped everything. 3/8” and 1/2” high strips seem to work out well for the majority of the number stamps. Needless to say… I am still making more 😂 Thank you for the inspiration Maggie! Cheers! ~ Lori

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Lori! I’m so glad that my project inspired you to make some as soon as you finished watching. That’s awesome! Making your own assortment is genius! Exactly what a good crafter would do. You were smart to cut your paper into strips. I’m sure that was a lot easier to cut to size. Thanks so much for watching Lori! ~Maggie

[@irhonda31]

It would be fun to stamp these on full-sheet sticker paper. I don’t know if the sticker paper (I’m thinking the Avery brand) would stamp well (matte enough?), and I think it’s only white. This is an excellent, money-saving idea! They came out so good! Watch out Tim Holtz, here comes Maggie!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Oh yeah! And I have some sticker sheets. I’ll have to try it out. Maybe distress it first with a little oxide right? Thanks for always watching Rhonda!

[@irhonda31]

@@SunsetCrafts Distressing! Yes, great idea!

[@jeanstarr1758]

This is such a great idea! I can do this while I’m watching TV!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Jean! This is perfect for that. Thanks so much for watching

[@BlackDogDesigns]

You definitely are not the only one! I’m so clumsy that one of my girlfriends carries a medical bag for me when we go out on adventures 🤣 Love this idea though!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Shary! I should start telling my kids to carry one of those kits around too. Lol Thanks so much for watching

[@jackiecrafts17]

Hahaha! You’re not the only one! And I crack myself up, too.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Jackie! Thanks for not letting me feel like it’s only me! My kids think I’m crazy for laughing at myself. Thanks for watching!

[@suzyallen1726]

Oh boy I love when you post. This will be fun

[@SunsetCrafts]

You’re sweet. Thanks for always watching Suzy!

[@PennysCraftyCreations]

Such a great idea, great way to use up scraps and build up your stash. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Penny! I’m glad you enjoyed this project. Thanks so much for stopping by!

[@PennysCraftyCreations]

@@SunsetCrafts your welcome.

[@Priscí-b2y]

OMG! I am going to start yelling "don't push me!" That is hilarious. If I don't trip once a day, then its not a normal day. I've broken each ankle once because I can't walk. LOL! I really love your method of working. Your voice is also very soothing. I came across your channel just a couple weeks. Love everything you're doing. Keep it up!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Priscella! It’s unfortunate but I’m so glad I’m not the only one. I honestly thought it was just me. Lol! I haven’t broken any bones yet…(Knocking on wood and crossing my fingers) Lol. I appreciate your kind words and thank you so much for tuning in to my channel. I’m glad you are enjoying my content. Thanks again! ~Maggie :)

[@scrapperiam463]

You are not alone. I have very poor balance and I fumble everything. Also, I broke my hand some months ago and had surgery and therapy but my hand still doesn't work right. Of course it's my dominant hand and I have no grip and I never had good fine motor skills! So dropsy it is.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Aw, I hope your hand gets better soon. One time I slipped and fell in my parents kitchen and my back has never been the same. So I hear ya! Thanks so much for watching

[@katherinehazard7580]

I love to fussy cut too!!

[@SunsetCrafts]

It's very relaxing right? Thanks for watching Katherine

[@isabellevogeleisen4405]

Hello🤗 Merci beaucoup ! 🙏 Je vais en faire! 😘✨🍀

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hello Isabelle, I hope you do give this project a try. I know you will enjoy it. Thank you so much for watching :) Maggie

[@terricorbett468]

You are so much fun to watch and listen to! And I am known for how clumsy I am!! I’ve fallen while standing still before, oh more than one time!😂😂😂 Great video!! Ohh got my bottle topper today, soooo beautiful! And thanks for the goodie pack!! You’re so sweet!❤

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Terri! I’m so glad I am not the only one. It’s crazy how many of us suffer from clumsiness. LOL! I’m happy you like your dangle. I hope you get good use of it. Thanks for watching!

[@raquelflores9088]

This is such a fantastic idea, why spend more money when you have all the right stamps. BTW, I just ordered the Tim Holtz stamps, I’ve gotta have them. You had me laughing so hard talking about how you trip on nothing. I am so clumsy I do it so much myself. Now I will be telling my 9 year old granddaughter to stop pushing me, she will get a good laugh. Tfs

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Raquel! I love using my stamps, I know you’ll enjoy them just as much! My kids still crack up when I tell them to stop pushing me, it’s just an ongoing joke in my house. I’m sure you’re granddaughter will think it’s hilarious! Thanks for watching!

[@RobinSpencer-wc6hj]

Awesome job! Thanks for sharing. ❤❤❤

[@SunsetCrafts]

Thanks again for watching Robin

[@denisegarcia4435]

What a great idea!!!! Love this. Will do it today. Fussy cutting is so relaxingyo me. Kind of like cleansing my brain after a project or getting ready for a new project. Thank u ❤😊

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Denise! I’m so glad you enjoyed the project. I knew I wasn’t the only one who finds fussy cutting relaxing. Thanks so much for watching!

[@phyllismarony8948]

Great video. Definitely invest in stamps. Definitely a money saver. Yours were absolutely the same quality. Tripping... yes i can trip over a sunbeam or blame my precious kitty for tripping me and she passed away 2 years ago.😂 Have a wonderful day. ❣

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Phyllis, I’m so glad you enjoyed the video and my silliness. You had me laughing for blaming your kitty who has already passed. That’s hilarious! Thanks for watching!

[@alenamorrow6707]

Great video I love to watch you create 😊😊

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Alena! I’m so glad you enjoyed this project. Thank you so much for watching!

[@Deneie1]

Another great video! Thank you. ❤

Thanks so much for watching Sherry!

[@lseh]

My daughter is always falling and tripping just like my husband’s mom. Lol When my daughter was a toddler she fell every other step… the daycare lady was getting annoyed. I needed up taking her to my chiropractor and discovered her hips we way out of alignment. After an adjustment she barely ever fell. Not sure what her excuse is now a days though lol. She also drops things a lot. She can’t eat without dropping her food every time lol.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Oh Wow! I’m so glad you were able to find the solution for your daughter. Unfortunately for me, it’s clumsiness…plain and simple. Lol! Thanks so much for watching

[@coraclampitt4110]

Amazon has adhesive backed kraft paper. It's better than the Avery white.

[@SunsetCrafts]

I’ll have to look that up. That would be cool to have. Thanks for the tip Cora!

[@justlm316]

Great video I’m inspired to stamp now tfs

[@SunsetCrafts]

So glad you enjoyed this project. Thanks so much for watching

[@nancybeebe7622]

Me too. Clumsy. Lol

I’m just glad I’m not the only one. Lol Thanks for watching Nancy

[@bettylebaube8344]

Great idea

[@SunsetCrafts]

Thanks for watching Betty!

[@Momto7gr8kids]

I love these! Does it bother you as much as it does me that the Sam Poole stamp is misspelled? JUIL. It drives me crazy 😜 😂

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Renee..you had me Google was JUIL stands for and turns out it’s short for JUILLET or July in French. Who know, right? Thanks so much for watching!

[@Momto7gr8kids]

@@SunsetCrafts I’m so glad you did that! Now it doesn’t bother me lol

[@lesliedenton8081]

These turned out amazing!

[@SunsetCrafts]

Thanks for watching Leslie!

[@imkindaartsyfartsy]

If you are fumbling on here just tell us not to push you, lol!😂

Right?!! It’s gotta come from somewhere! LOL My equilibrium must be off again. Ha! Thanks for watching Annette!

[@KateriBurnett]

Hello, I ran across your video today and clicked. I am so taken by your camera and lighting what are they??? I’ve got to know. It is so clear and bright. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while but I’m so deep into making my Edith Holden journals and ephemera. Thank you for the video.

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Kateri! Thank you for clicking on my video. I hope you enjoyed this project. It was a lot of fun! My camera and lighting?….it’s my iPhone and thanks to my husband for the overhead lighting positioned right over my desk. Thank you so much for stopping by. ~Maggie

[@Tfriday77]

Great idea. I have done this with words. I have a question. What are those clear cases you used for stamps storage? Love the snaps. Tfs, Tereese

[@SunsetCrafts]

Hi Tereese! I’ve made some word labels too. Those are fun as well. I’ll link my plastic envelope pockets for you here. I love them, they are perfect! Just be aware that I did have to cut and sew the larger ones to fit my Tim Holtz stamps. Just and FYI. Thanks for watching! Large: amzn.to/3OiPIuf Medium: amzn.to/3DkyeaM Hope this helps! :)
