What a spectacular vacation you are all having. I'm so glad that you Mom is able to travel a bit as well. Memory building is so important for youngsters, especially if there are photographs available as reminders. Time well spent!! Thanks also for all the good ideas.

[@patsmith1324]

Thanks for the great idea's on using scraps. I seem to have more scraps than I can contain in many containers! lol I enjoyed your family vacation. So nice to see young families being in the outdoors. So nice your Mom was able to go also.

[@sandrashaw8343]

Really great idea, love these. Thank you for sharing the lovely photos of your beautiful family. X

[@nicolalederer9517]

Such a good idea (again!!!), Sasha! I am just like you, I can‘t stand too throw out all the little bits coming of the die cuts, such a waste and often the are so pretty! Great way to use them. Thank you also for sharing your family time with us. I am glad that you all get to spend this time together and make memories! Take care, kind regards from Germany, Nicol

[@rebeccajourney3183]

These are adorable! But I wish my husband was alive so I could say, "See, I'm not the only crafter that saves ecerything!!" 😁 Most of all, I'm glad you had fabulous and memorable vacation with your Mom! She looks so very happy Sasha❣Love to you& yours💕

[@brendamerchant7921]

Thanks for sharing your beautiful family in the pretty land of rural Canada. My favorite was the flower.

Thank you :) If we had more time i would say we should grab a coffee! Gutting not to have more, this holiday has flown by

[@MichelleM-kp2gm]

Your pictures with the family are lovely. TFS ❤ These cards great, but a little too fussy for me🤣

[@teresagray7931]

[@audreyshaw2463]

Brilliant cards and ideas Sasha, as always. Gorgeous Canadian scenery, great that your Mum was able to join you. Safe travels back to the UK ✈️

[@karenreeves3958]

I don’t know what’s prettier, your cards or the places you visited in Canada. What beautiful scenery. It looks like you all had such a great time, and I’m sure your Mom really enjoyed her day trips with her grandkids. And your cards were so pretty, I especially liked the flower on & the holographic happy birthday one. Safe travels home & I look for forward to your next video.

[@Java-Junky]

Everyone smash that like button!!! Comment too! Even just a hello to help get her channel moving! These are great! Im in the middle of relocating my craft space in my house! Will have to remember this technique!

[@fillybee3153]

Aaaww, thanks for sharing your family with us Sasha! I am sure you will treasure these beautiful moments with your Mom. 💝🙏Cards turned out so lovely, although I am a bit "apprehensive" of all the glitter due to small apartment living 😂

[@patsmith1324]

I loved watching, however I did give most of my glitter away, as I am in a small senior apartment. I am fortunate to have carved out a space for my stamps and paper. I know what you mean about small space and glitter. Last time I used mine, my dog had it all over her face! haha

[@fillybee3153]

@@patsmith1324 Haha, I'm sure she loved looking glittery 😁

[@datasciyinfo5133]

Hi Sasha, Love the cards you made using scraps. One of the best scrap cards. It does seem more intricate but fabulous effect.

[@dise331]

Wow Sasha your Canadian photos are fabulous - I backpacked around in my younger years and Jasper was one of my favourite places. Thank you for sharing your pics and your three cards - they are gorgeous - really love the heart one 🤗🦘

[@debbievandijk8016]

Sasha, so glad you had a great trip to your moms!! 🥰 I loved this technique, can't wait to try this!! So fun. I love things like little bits!! Glad you enjoyed the reclining movie chairs! Haha! Thank you again!!!

[@sherribell7639]

Those cards are awesome. I have been looking for new ideas for cards. I have been asked to teach some of the ladies at our church. I have never done that so this will a great way to get them started. Thank you for sharing all your hard work.

[@lorirobinson7357]

Beautiful cards! And fantastic pics of family vacation. Just a little hint when using the double stick paper. If you don't want to use glitter, you can add powder to "unstick" and keep the areas white.

[@paularutter6654]

Great idea's for scraps, looks like you've made some wonderful memories x

[@rrunnr]

Love this.

[@lorettafritz6992]

Always enjoy your videos. I have also saved all those bits from your layered dies. Great way to use some of them! I also thought about just putting it as confetti inside a birthday card. Thank you for sharing your fun family vacation pics! Canada is so beautiful! Glad your mom was up to it. Hugs!

[@SashaReade]

thank you so much Loretta, yes great thought about the confetti!

[@roxanneklinger3828]

Wasn't so sure about the mosaic until I saw you finish them... and then Wow what beautiful cards they make. Just gorgeous. 🤩

[@lindaanderson7375]

Fun way to use scraps! Love these. TFS .Got to see a part of Canada I haven't visited too. Very special memories for you and your family.

Love that idea Sasha, thank you for sharing 👌🏻💕🐨🌺

[@melb.4609]

What a great way to make our paper so even further! I love it! I can see using this technique to get my neighbor kids excited about crafting, too. (They will love the "tack on the chopstick" tool.) And thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures with us. I really need to get back to Canada again someday...

[@SashaReade]

yes this is so easy and cheap, you can easily share crafting with loads of people! Great thoughts :)

[@juliewurf7506]

I forgot you were in a very different time zone. Glad you had a great time with your Mum - and TFS the holiday pics. I watched this going yep yep - but it was your pink flower coming to life that was my lightbulb moment. Guess my rubbish bin is going to be pretty empty from now on 😁 you have created a scrap miser - nothing hits the bin now!

I hope so! Cant wait to get home and get creating again and sharing more ideas for a less wasteful life

So I haven't been a complete nutcase keeping all those die cut scraps I couldn't bear to throw away! So good to have something else to do with them, I've been using them to decorate envelopes & gift tags but I shall definitely try your mosaic idea now, thank you!

[@SashaReade]

oh they are so fun to play with! i need to think of some more ways to use them!

[@kimdixon3773]

Looks like you're having a fantastic holiday. Lucky you too go up the tram in Jasper. When we were there it was fogged in and not worth going.

[@lauracrane2834]

Great ideas!

[@conniesobczak2177]

Really nice idea, very pretty thank u

[@hayleydoherty9557]

Do some videos on the design process hun if you can as beginner people like me know how to die cut etc but struggle to actually put cards together. I find that most videos are showing you how to do a card but unless you copy it, its very hard to use what you have and come up with putting it all together. Ellen Hudson did a good one on card design and what rules she sti js with. I wish there was more videos like that for us beginners please 🙏

[@hayleydoherty9557]

Ellen Hudson called layout and composition have a look please and try and do something like that would be good 👍

ha ha yes my son is an absolute goofball, cracks us up all the time. Rosalie is stunning, need to keep telling her as all the media these days can be scary and i worry about her and the pressures she'll face in life.

So glad you had a good trip. Those are memories you’ll cherish. Now that I am old I find my best memories of my children are from the trips we took; parents, too. These cards are so simple , but so effective at the same time. I like the flower card the best - excellent idea. 2nd fav is the glitter “grout”. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next week. Happy traveling.

A while back I put 2mm coloured strips onto double sided sticky sheet. I had left a few gaps (oops!). Put black marker lines between the colours. Then cut strips so I had a little of each colour on every strip. Next I offset every 2nd strip a little to create a 'disco' effect. Looks like it took hours! 😉Fun in rainbow type colours!☺

Sounds like you had a great time in Canada! Happy that you like bears 🙃. We live in the NE corner of Washington state surrounded by forest lands. Can't say I have a love affair with bears after one came in this spring and killed 3 of my chickens! 🤨 Being that I AM a female hunter, that bear's days were numbered. Seems another hunter must have done the deed, because have not seen him back since his 3rd trip onto our lands. From a distance, they are beautiful creatures (wildlife artist and all I DO appreciate that). But, kill my livestock - another matter entirely! Your paper scrap uses are inspirational. thank you. Glad you had fun in Canada with your mom. Family IS everything & Canada IS beautiful ☺
