#UseWhatYouHave

[@berriesrbest]

I loooove your videos and the facts that you keep using the same things that you've had for a while, even if they aren't still selling it. You show *how* to make a cute card, rather than just giving instructions for the exact same one you make, and I really love that. So thank you for not always using the brand new stamp set or fancy just-released products. I think it makes your videos so much better and so much more relatable. Thanks for posting so many wonderful videos!!

[@victoriousvalentine9779]

No exaggeration, your tip with just pulling out little tabs of the double sided adhesive is LIFE CHANGING! Thank you from the bottom of my craft stash!

[@lir3379]

Thanks for the chuckle. I had a whole "Kodak" moment of a hand reaching out from under craft stuff.

[@maryannsomerville3505]

I agree whole heartedly that using the ‘tiny tabs’ to start placing your card front is ingenious! Has made my cards much more balanced & so easy to place!! Thanks …. 🌻💜✨

[@olivemaycards]

That’s gorgeous! I hate receiving glitter cards that shed all over the envelope and my house, so this is perfect. The extra layer of embossed die cut over the top really makes it look like stained glass. I’m getting all kinds of good ideas from this.

[@marlisetp]

Brilliant. I've also used glittery translucent nail polish between layers for faux stained glass.

[@paulablock3202]

What a cool idea... how do you do it?

[@lauramartin7300]

I was thinking of that as watching this. Have to try it. glad to know it works. Ty

[@karenpage9383]

Don't ever feel you have to apologize for using what you own, especially when you make suggestions for alternatives or give ideas for how to make your own. Using your older supplies is one of the reasons I follow you. If folks want to see the latest and greatest... and only once... there are plenty of other YTers. But after they buy something, they'll be back to you to see more than 1 way to use it. 💗

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

Thank you for your comment. You are right. That is exactly what used to bug me when i purchased something I had seen in a video. By the time it arrived in the mail, there had been a new release and that product was long forgotten by everyone. I created my channel because I want to use products again and again and again! We work so hard for our money, and supplies are precious. Your comment is a lovely reminder, and just so incredibly heart warming to read. Thank you again xx

[@karenpage9383]

@@NatashaFooteCreative I love seeing you use a stamp set or die over the course of several videos! I feel like if you can't think of at least 5 ways to use a product, maybe you shouldn't buy it. Your subscribers aren't here for product reviews. Just keep doing you, sweetie!!!! 💗

[@lir3379]

Exactly! I used to follow several additional YTers but when they started pushing to sell products or product lines I quit even looking at their vids. Love your entire concept. Really appreciate all your time & effort. Wishing you all the best.

[@mydyisgod]

Could not have said it any better.

[@trishaclayton1980]

Wonderfully said….hear hear 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@bevp7838]

I am so smiling right now! This was how I first created a window card, using the packing tape and glitter as my window. It was the perfect backdrop for a jeweled poinsettia. (Confession: I kept that card at least three years before I finally gave it away! ). I still didn’t have much luck with stamping, but even my sentiment cooperated that time. I think that it was my first card that all of the elements worked! Thanks for the reminder and the memory. I think that my sister is getting a variation of this technique for her birthday. I am going to dream of ideas tonight 😁🥱

[@annarodgers3385]

My oldest granddaughter is addicted to glitter! Every time she comes over, she gets out ever color of glitter that I have and mixes it with anything she can find. This idea is perfect for a crafting session with her. She will be here Wednesday so I’m gonna get to die cutting some gorgeous butterflies and cover them with packing tape. I will have everything ready so she can glitter things to her heart’s content! I can’t wait to clean up the glitter explosion that will be left in my craft studio! Lol! TFS and God bless you!

[@lisawarner7991]

That butterfly is beautiful! You really think outside the box! I love that!

[@djmmeade2094]

Wow that butterfly looks amazing. Little tip for intricate dies ... cut the die then place the die back through the cutting machine on top of dryer sheets. Then peel off the dryer sheets it leaves all the tiny bits on the dryer sheets. Where its sticky its comes out perfectly. Game changer . Great card love that idea 🌹🦋

[@jannaphelps7590]

You make everything fresh and doable! Also, thank you for encouraging “stash use!” Crafting can become expensive, but when you use something you have already invested money in, it is more affordable! Thanks Tasha!

[@TheNewsonata]

What a beautiful card. I am all about shine and bling. Love that butterfly

[@marlenedigby4583]

Thanks for sharing such a beautiful way to use glitter in a non messy technique. Always make good use of what you already have, that's what you always say and I agree. Thanks again.

[@ladyhawkj6493]

Absolutely stunning Natasha! There isn’t a card you make that I don’t love - I love each and every project. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@susanhamilton3212]

I've just watched this twice! I was surprised and stunned by the result as I've never seen this technique before. I always shudder when you cut antennae off butterflies as I do when people cut stamens off lilies, so a sigh of relief when they "reappeared"! Thank you as always :)

[@debschurby1574]

Guuuurrrrrlllll... you’re an absolute genius!!! Many thanks for your guidance & the time you take to share your gift! I hope to replicate this awesome method!!!! I look forward to all your videos! Thank you!

[@s_rofbear]

So, just to be clear (in case anyone is confused) the layers were... * clear embossing powder * black cardstock butterfly * stick-it adhesive * packing tape * black cardstock butterfly * glitter * liquid glue * card front Such an awesome technique, Natasha! I love sparkle but, like you, don’t like giving (or receiving) cards that create mess. So I’m always looking for ways to keep glitter contained. 😁 Can’t wait to try this technique!

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

Well done on the layering! That makes it look like a lot when you write it like that doesn't it?! But you can skip or add as many layers as you want can't you! Thanks for your lovely comments Sarah!

[@countrymouse47]

OH! MY! GOSH!!!!! That’s such a great technique!!!!!!

[@catcar8212]

I feel the same way about using glitter as you do. I don't want the card recipient to open up a messy envelope. This is a beautiful way to present a glitter card. Thank you so much for sharing how we can use this technique! 🦋

[@janetbennell9855]

Love the technique with the tape to position it and have four tags. Very helpful. The card is fun too.

[@kimmorin7847]

I am in awe how creative you are! So gorgeous!

[@momofschnauzers]

That glitter against the black is SO striking. Over the years, I have acquired "heaps" (as you say!) of glitter containers so this has inspired me to open the drawer and use some of it. Love that you keep reviving these older techniques and put your twist on them.

[@1stLucySchmidt]

Very pretty, though probably not something I'd hurry to try. I do enjoy watching all your creative ideas come to life, no matter what they are. Thanks.

[@janegotelli7152]

That was a lot of work but so worth it. Beautiful and so many colors you could make.

[@teresasanner-fecto3690]

I love glitter... but know many don't. This is a great idea for making a card for our glitter- phobic friends!

[@janeforever]

Most beautiful butterfly I've ever seen!

[@lizhibbard3887]

Hi Natasha, glitter, hmm, I'm usually covered in it! This is a great technique and never seen it done before, you make it look so easy and end up with such a stunning card. I love the butterfly die you used. Have a great day and thanks for more inspiration, I'll give it a go. 🤗❤️🇬🇧😘

[@ArtorLifeTorB]

Your job is beautiful, very interesting, nice to watch your video 🥰🌼👋beautiful butterflie👍

[@heidirichardson4988]

Love, love your ideas! Your so creative,! I look forward to all your new projects. Thank you for sharing. 🧡💗💙❤️💜

[@laurabruley6126]

Very gorgeous with all the glitter. I will start using my glitter now that I’ve watched your videos where you show how to use glitter on your cards that won’t make a mess everywhere..thanks😁

[@virginiamahon2863]

I love this card! You are so talented! I am good at copying others cards, just not too good at being original. So, I really appreciate you sharing!!

[@suetownsend1932]

Stunning. I forget to pop on that extra top layer on some die cuts, so thanks for the reminder. Makes a huge difference.

[@created2bless322]

It looks like stained glass but prettier 💝. Thank you for sharing this cool technique. God bless!

[@lesleyeden3580]

My gosh Natasha. I always look forward to checking out your videos every morning! Thanks for this great ideas.

[@ShannonsChannel]

Gorgeous! Great for stained glass window on a card

[@jenniferschweichler6773]

I just love all your videos!!! You use products you already have or are very economical, common products. Best of all most of your videos can be used with & you encourage us to use items we already have. I have no idea how you find the time to do such great videos so frequently. Keep it up youre such an inspiration!! If youre not aware of his products you should really check out Flonz; by Leo Flonz, he is based in NZ 🇳🇿. I'M soooo jealous you live so close. It takes a few weeks dometime an entire month to get to me in South FL, USA 🇺🇸 can't believe how beautiful his stamps are & the decoupage papers are just stunning.

[@bjjohansen2458]

I have just recently begun watching your video's and I am soooo loving them. Your idea's are all very unique, informative and also not long drawn out video's quick and to the point, perfect!! I love that you say to use what's in your stash, I realize that I have so much product that I haven't yet used so I have decided to follow in your footsteps. Looking forward to watch many more video's.

[@susanknight183]

Have never seen this technique before. Lovely effects. Thank you for sharing 🌍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌍

[@bunnylands916]

I love the way glitter looks but hate the way it sheds. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this technique! Now if I can just find my butterfly die...

[@mandydoodlehands4998]

This card is stunning another to add to my try list lol don't apologise fornus8ng what u have that's what your channel is all about and there's always an alternative which u also give ideas on thank u 😊

[@Bubs2375]

This card is absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing your wonderful creations with us... Im definitely feeling inspired, I look forward to your next video, take care & stay safe my lovely... 💫😷🦋💎🦋😷💫

[@maryannsomerville3505]

Just caught this video now. Idea! If you put another layer of packing tape on the back - over the exposed glitter - & added a die cut on to it & embossed that just like you did the front - you’d have butterflies sturdy enough to make a mobile with them! You could make each one a different colour & it would be stunning!! 👍🏻🦋💖✨

[@cherylstephens6199]

Stunning. Great way to use glitter with no mess for recipient.

[@ninacongeni4027]

That's so cool it looks like stain glass. Your the best

Wow, first off that butterfly die is gorgeous, now what you did with it is amazing!!! I love the whole card, thank you for that amazing tutorial!!!

[@AlysonGold]

This is so beautiful! I think I have the same die, LOTS of glitter and packing tape, so I can't wait to give it a try! Thank you for sharing your wonderful tips and techniques. I'm so glad to hear you say you're using what's in your stash, even if it's not something I can purchase, it still gives me ideas on what I can do to recreate the product. It seems like more card makers are using what they have, which I love.

[@kiwipommiegirl]

Hi Natasha, I love your butterfly and card, they're both gorgeous, you always come up with these great ideas. I can't wait to try this when my leg gets better. Thank you for another awesome video.

[@BooBeaux]

TFS. Like you, I also have had great success using packing foam to die cut intricate dies. Highly recommend.

[@cindyhenry1410]

How does the foam work? You place it under the die? Under the paper? Not sure I get it....

[@s_rofbear]

@@cindyhenry1410 under the paper. So you’re cutting into both the paper and the foam. It helps the paper to cut more cleanly, having something slightly squishy underneath.

[@s_rofbear]

So it goes metal die (cutting side towards the paper), paper, foam. :)

[@satu6343]

OMG love love love love 🥰 beautiful!
