[@erictaylor5965]

I can’t believe the things I let you talk me into! I think regardless of if I help with the voiceover of my “card” it’s only fair that I get to do one of yours totally on my own 😘

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Deal 😘

[@suzie5340]

Good for you Eric, we want to see your “creations “ you may have a fan base yourself yet 😘🇬🇧

[@ginetteregimbal4882]

This has been done recently by another artist and believe you me, it was so entertaining! Go for it.

[@loribarker683]

Please do your own voice over Eric, looking forward to seeing your creation--who knows, you just might become the next popular card-making duo, I'll bet if you guys did that it would be a blast & super entertaining.

[@anitasorensen9058]

I'm looking forward to seeing your card! Please, do the voice over. I'd love to hear your take on what goes into making a card.

[@christinesheppard5759]

Go for it Kelly, swearing is part of life. I’m a librarian so language is important and the more people swear, the less power it has. They’re just words. Your videos are awesome, your techniques are great learning experiences and your stories are hilarious. Can’t wait to see Eric’s card, he’s a keeper!

[@hong-chautran-hoang5664]

Gotta say, next to coffee, You guys are THE Best! Who wouldn't love a little crafty - SNL? Aside from Your adorable shenanigans...love the coloring, love the card, love everything! Craft On & sending love 'n hugs! 💜💙💚💛❤

[@thecauldronink6341]

I would definitely be into watching uncensored Kelly videos.. I can't wait to see Eric's card... So glad he is making you so happy...

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Yes do it, ‘Kelly After Dark!’, with no filters!! Lové your card and coloring tips. Tfs!!😘✨👍🏾

[@jessmbaby]

I love the crafting after dark idea. Throw caution to the wind, I would definitely tune in!

[@flamechica]

I am not usually a commenter, but I can't wait to see Eric's card and hopefully, his voiceover. Also, I would totally watch your potty mouth videos. My husband wanted me to start a KZbin channel recently and the first thing I said was "I swear too much for that!" 😂

[@carolinelovelace9714]

Love your cards. Look forward to your videos being posted. I've learned quite a lot from watching you color. I'm definitely hooked on your stories and have my 88 year old mom tuning in too! You ROCK!

[@sueb-t2183]

I appreciate the clean version of your art and stories. I would not pay to hear you swear, I can hear that anywhere.

[@anne-mareedriver5459]

I watched the video of Eric’s card and when I wasn’t laughing at his terminology I was thinking how well you have blended together. Go strong Eric, you got this, I too have on more occasions than I care to remember, put ‘the saucer upside down’. Stay safe guys, it’s a tricky world out there. Much love to you both from Sydney, Australia

[@kristineauders9824]

I vote yes for Eric to do any kind of voiceover. I vote yes to you and Eric doing a project together, separately... whatever! I vote yes for your after hours crafty show because I too throw around the f bomb like commas! I vote yes for anything you go because I love watching and listening to your videos!

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

I happened to watch Eric’s card making video before this one, so, I already was aware of how great of a job Eric did on your KZbin channel Kelly!!! He did great!!! Kudo’s to you Eric, Rock On!!!! This card is phenomenal, Kelly, I love the colors you used and I love to watch you color, story time, etc. Thanks, as usual, for sharing your time, journey through life, & creativity, HUGS!!!

[@sevenandthelittlestmew]

Also no filters. I don’t swear a lot, but I just say things that could make people look at me sideways. I’m an introvert, so maybe that’s a side effect. Go figure. Anyhooten, thanks for talking us through the shading of the saucer. I can pencil and ink a whole scene based on a stamp, and it looks great, but I SUCK at coloring. Seriously. I’ve been practicing more, so your tutorials are always so helpful. Always appreciate you sharing your time and expertise!

[@avrawilliams8675]

I watched the video that Eric did first - it was awesome! I'm impressed that he knew how to make a card - masking and all!

[@lesleyeden3580]

I love the blue around the shapes. Great. Love watching you colour AND hearing your stories.

[@lyncrawford3349]

Kelly, love the cards and talks so it doesn't matter whether you swear or not. Love to all best wishes from Northern Ireland and your friend Lyn xxxx.

[@whoooami2090]

Love that tea cup and of course the colors. I can’t wait to see Eric’s video. I remember watching Clarissa’s hubby do a voice over when she made a card; it was hilarious. He kept telling us to check out her ring and how big it was😂. I think her channel is Sprinkled with Glitter or something like that. Can’t wait!

[@743linda]

I worked at a PD for 26 years and It was hard to filter for a long time. It has been 19 years since I left and I don’t need a filter any more. But I don’t mind. It would be fun to see a live. Your coloring is amazing. Miss those days!

[@isalawton6239]

Can't wait for Eric's card! Yours turned out just beautiful. Thanks Kelly....

[@tracykiske7758]

You crack me up. Kelly after dark is in my wheelhouse, no filters needed. Potty mouths unite.

[@dotydiva]

I would watch your crafting after dark.. I love your stories and ok with trucker talking. I love the story on Eric and Peanut and I did watch his video the other night and totally loved it.. motion sickness and all..

[@rikkiscott-morgan4248]

I am so on board with crafting after dark. I loved your periscope videos. Can’t wait to see Eric’s card and the voice overs should be entertaining. Thanks for another beautiful card Kelly!

[@helenweber8029]

Beautiful card!! I can't wait for Eric''s card!! I hope you show a picture of him too!! You are a talented and lovely lady!

[@joanorr4001]

I love watching you color and create your one-layer cards, Kelly. This video was quite entertaining. Thank you!

[@camilleernst1269]

I would love it if you did a crafting after dark channel! I love listening to you and watching your videos.

[@SvitlanaShayevich]

Love watching you coloring and listening to your stories. I had a privilege listen to your non filtered speech and I’m missing it so much. Please please do the second channel!!!

[@ShawninAZ]

I’m thrilled to see a video of Eric creating a card, can’t wait! I would follow you to any channel or service regardless of your cursing, love your videos!

[@meganharp2422]

Oh yes! You must craft after dark!! Love the card, love all of your cards! TFS!

[@Cheery1015]

Such a beautiful card! I love watching your videos, and want to be honest with you and tell you I am pretty much a G-rated person! I will still be faithful to watching the day time versions! ~Connie

[@CARDSMADEBYTERRI]

Who are you kidd'n ? We all love you for you! Oh and your cards.

[@bevhill9818]

Love your stories and videos. A little after dark will just add more spice. Go for it.

[@paulariddle7066]

I personally wouldn't pay for extra content, cuz I'm cheap as they come. Not opposed for other folks but free fits me better. Love to watch you and listen to you. Feel like we'd be friends in 'real' life. Thanks for sharing your talent :)

[@kathleencarter9739]

Now i see you did one that’s purple. How pretty!

[@WendyCranford]

Oh my word yes!!! Crafters after dark!!!! YES Please ❤️❤️😂

[@wendyodell356]

You know how to capture my heart. Such a beautiful, perfect card as always. I think if you did more real you on KZbin, they would pull it for foul language, wouldn't they? That's what I hear from other KZbinrs anyway.. I'm fine with what the masses want. I'm still going to watch this channel so it makes no difference to me. I'm just a faithful viewer who'd love if you could post more often but I totally understand the circumstances. I love what you do maked you a wonderful, caring, considerate, and empathetic person. It's what each of us should strive to be❣ Love you lots and God bless you and Peanut ❤ XOXO

[@traceylandt9026]

Hey Kelly Lovely card. I tuned in for your Periscopes, and they were no way as bad as you think! I loved them. It was just like we were all in the same room, not on the other sides of the world. Gee, it seems like a long time ago now. Looking forward to seeing Eric's creation, sounds like you snagged a keeper there! It is so lovely to hear you happy again, it comes through in your voice. I will keep following whatever you decide to do. T x

[@suzie5340]

Love this stamp set Kelly, and you make even more beautiful with your lovely colouring, I would be interested in your “real world” chat and crafting complete with potty talk lol and looking forward to seeing Eric’s card, I imagine it’s.......”artistic “ to say the least lol. Your so funny and I too like “real” I can be a bit blunt myself and appreciate truthfulness and honesty, in other words I get in heaps of trouble too lol 😘🇬🇧

[@danielleporter1829]

Love the tea cup and your stories are always so fun. . The blue outline and highlights are great way's to add to a little extra sparkle and interest.

[@kristinahein]

First off, Eric is awesome and such a sweetie. So VERY happy for you! Second, card is FABULOUS as always. Third, I'm definitely intrigued in Crafting after dark. It would kind of depend on my budget though! Love your videos and the awesome person you are!

[@kmaxwell8783]

Yes!!! Yes!!! Yes!!! Please do it!!! I would LOVE that!!! I have said before that we are so much alike it's eerie!! The F bomb is like a comma in my vocabulary too!!! I love the idea of getting to chat with you live!!! This card is beautiful as usual!!! Love ya bunches, Big Hugs!!!

[@wendybaryl6867]

I Love your personal touch to our therapeutic, creative fun hobby:) a grownup version will feel cozy & like hanging with friends tf ur time!!

[@jhufendick]

"dropping f-bombs like they're a comma" is the best. I do the same. I would totally sign up for Crafters After Dark. Potty mouth is my savior after school hours.

[@christineh1988]

What a beautiful card and thanks again for using Altenew markers! I am trying to learn restraint with these markers to get a soft blend, so watching you is really helpful. I have commented quite often on your videos... I love your talent, humour and down to earth personality. No judgement here either... (but for a bit of balance in your replies)... bad language is not my thing. So if you did this new idea, I would be really sorry to be missing another opportunity to watch you craft. And if it means less “clean” videos, (I realise how extreme your schedule is), I would be sad 😥 because I hang out for your videos. Maybe sticking with the safer, clean videos would mean a wider audience can enjoy all your efforts. Thanks for all you have taught me. 🥰

[@geminigirl68]

Dying to see Eric's card! I vote for Eric to help with the voiceover!💖💖💖

[@terryneudorf7189]

Love your stories or chats . Never stop being who u are

[@scrapgirl6]

I love your coloring, honesty, and speaking your truth. You are the bomb 😊

[@reneemoran8574]

I just watched the Eric makes a card video. You two are adorable. This card is stunning, like always!

[@craftydesertrose]

I would TOTALLY watch your crafting after dark videos. Do it! Swearing is just a passionate form of expression. Lol.

[@kimh.5272]

Yay, go Eric! I too would love Kelly after dark, I have a son in the oil field and one in construction so wouldn't be anything I haven't heard but wouldn't be able to pay as I'm unemployed. So $ is tight!. Cute card. Thanks for keeping this part of our life free from the drama of politics and such. It's nice to be free of that for a little bit.

[@susanbyers7523]

Beautiful card. Love it and Eric sounds like a keeper

[@madusonkeeper]

Love mono sand erasers only complaint, to easy to lose lol Love to see Eric's card

[@christymalone5191]

I love the teacup and flowers and I can’t wait to see Eric’s video. He sounds like a fun guy. :) Honestly, we are a very G-rated family and I usually have to watch videos with my little ones in the room so I wouldn’t be able to watch “unfiltered” content. If you go that route I hope you won’t cut down too much on your regular videos. I learn tons from you. 🙂

[@kristintorres2466]

I say go ahead with the “crafting after dark “. You entertaining now uncensored couldn’t wait. Btw. Pretty card

[@lisadelong1455]

This card is gorgeous. I love the colors you chose and as always the coloring is amazing.

[@cherylrobertson5629]

I would definitely watch and pay for an after dark video. You would be hilarious I’m sure.

[@lisaainscough2465]

Loved the card! This is one stamp set I've only used a couple of times but you've inspired me. Great colouring by the way. I always pick up a tip or two from you. Heads up succulents do flower. I wish I could add a photo I took this afternoon. Cheers Lisa

[@jenisyverson8187]

I would definitely watch your “crafting after dark” videos, I have no offense to some salty sailor talk 😉

[@beckiewalden6342]

Love your stories. I think it would be great if you did an after dark series.

[@katyhorbatiuk5549]

Love he card. I believe it’s a Marigold flower

[@cindybearj]

Kelly, the Cursing Crafter...love it! I have watched the "Eric's card" video and I must say, he made me feel just a little bit better about my coloring...hahaha! Really, I think that was brave of him and shows how much he cares. P.S. your card is better.

[@janetmuir6011]

Beautiful coulers in this cup and saucer

[@karenpalmeri85]

Great card! Can't wait to see Eric's card and video!

[@andrealavigne7824]

I will happily stick to your KZbin videos. Not opposed to strong language, just don't have the funds to pay for a premium service. I really love how your card came out! Great color choices, and thank you for explaining why your MISTI was on the carpet. LOL I'm typing this comment over one of our cats, who is sleeping on my lap next to my "other" laptop (i.e. computer), so it's not easy! Thank you very much for sharing this. Take care, I hope your allergies get better, and have a wonderful day! :)

[@kelleyfreeman401]

Go for it! I think you're hilarious and I would watch anything you decided to do, F bombs and all. And I would really enjoy seeing Eric's card and whatever he's comfortable with as far as a voice over!

[@beckyreeder993]

I don't mind "real life", I am who I am. And I like who you are!

[@TheresaPetermann]

Kelly, I would have no problem subscribing to a paid portion of your videos no matter the platform. You could so easily set up a tip jar for us too. Everything you do takes resources in the form of product and time. I have often sat here watching you color something and then think, I would so love to see Kelly color one of Scrap Cozy's tea pots that's a Paper Artsy stamp as an example. Maybe you could try some new vendors if you had some funds to play with. Just a thought. thanks as always for sharing.

[@rhondanicholson3215]

I just love watching your video's. I am a newbie on everything. I really would love to be able color as you do. you are absolutely awesome. the way you blend your colors are just amazing. maybe one day I will be able to do half as good as you do.

[@BornAgainFarmGirl]

Oh I can’t wait to watch Eric’s video , so fun Kelly 🥰 !

[@Kbaker2964]

I'll be the first paid member of your community! Im probably a Nancy but I don't judge anyone! I super super enjoy your personality

[@teresadoyle1396]

This is so beautiful Kelly. I have already seen Eric's video. (I just got home the other day from a week away and had nearly 600 emails/YT's to get through. So I am working through them from the newest to the oldest. HAHA) Anyway, he did a great job for only having made 2 cards, he sounds like a great guy. As for swearing (I do too, just not in front of the grand kids. LOL) If you happen to swear in one, call it 'Kelly after dark' and we'll know not to watch in front of the kids.

[@jenrosenberg3276]

Koren Wiskman did that before...had her husband Tim voice over one of her videos. It was hilarious!

[@norahmcphee4928]

Oh Kelly my flower, it is so lovely to hear you laugh and smile again. The lovely Eric is a true new future that is sounding all good for you all off you. That is what having someone special in you life is supposed to be like, that you make happy memories and enjoy life again. It is supposed to be about giving and taking and accepting a person for who that are and not what they think you should be like. It is a two way street flower and you treat others how you would like to be treated yourself. Hey, i am happy to watch you however you speak because you're blue air wouldn't be in malice, but just how you 'roll' (lol). I bet you would tell Peanut not to say words like that because mum's bad and you don't speak like mum does. Hee hee hee. There are some people that it wouldn't matter what they said, they say it offensively and don't care who they hurt, but you're just not like that flower. Be yourself and not as someone else perceives you, because that is what people who watch your talented hands see, the person that you are. Anyway, i love the blue teacup this time as it is a bonnie blue and those beautiful roses just finish it off stunningly. Yet another stunning work of art. Sending you crafty hugs to you and Peanut from Scotland. x

[@mycreativebent]

I would love more Kelly. I love your stories as well as your talent. Hearing you swear would be entertaining I think. I also love that Eric will make cards. You should keep that man.

[@Siobhan626]

Haha! I do get you - I could blame my mouth on 24 years working in prisons but nope - it’s me! Love how real you are & of course your art! As far as videos go I’d follow you just about anywhere - not just for the art but you’re someone I relate to - maybe it’s the Law Enforcement/momma/artsy ness we have in common or our mutual love of spiders! Lol thanks for all you do!!!

[@SherriC88]

I don't even know where to begin!!! Card .....love it!!! Eric making a card, LOVE IT, Eric voiceing over one of your cards F@$K YA!!! I love that you are so real...I did work for a trucking company, dispatcher, so I totally blame my potty mouth on them!! Love the crafting after dark idea, lol I say put a warning in the title, watch at your own risk!!! Haha I see nothing wrong with a little swearing.

[@lindailey2225]

I look forward to Eric's card so very, very much. I love the "crafting after dark" title. When I first started crafting there was a Stampin' Up demonstrator that would have a Saturday night STYK (stamp till you kramp) from 7 to midnight at her house. Loved it but would wear out towards midnight and after I got home, I couldn't sleep bcz I had so many ideas going thru my head! That was my crafting after dark.

[@glennistrotman8421]

Lovely card, waiting for Eric's card

[@annalisluck2903]

I would TOTALLY pay to hear you "after dark". Here's a thought and maybe others suggested, but a crafters unleashed kind of podcast? It could be free and just stories you have with all the fun language you want. Only downside to a podcast would be no video though.

[@Kat-fg3qw]

Beautiful as always. About the after dark card making. Bc I'm pretty it would be as hilarious and entertaining. U do know how to tell a story

[@AllisonCopeDesigns]

Totally do it Kelly! Do the After Dark... I would totally watch :)

[@keljo123]

Love the card! I would watch a "Crafter's After Dark" channel.

[@mariehoney31]

I knew you were my kinda girl! I've been told many, many times that I swear like a sailor, and I don't care! LOL Can't wait for Eric's video! :)

[@loribarker683]

I'd pay for a youtube subscription to hear you swear, but only if you pass gas & belch too, lol. I really need to see the video of Eric making his card-I can't wait. I hope he does his own voice over. Beautiful card, love the flowers in a teacup & the colors--- they are f&$% gorgeous, lol.

[@heatherharrison4855]

Love the card Kelly. I must get this stamp set out and use it. I think I will just stick with the utube channel. I really enjoy watching you colour.💕

[@carlenejake]

I love your videos! Love your stories also. I personally prefer no potty mouth, but it would not keep me away!

[@kellihorger707]

Girl -----depraved individual with both hands!!! Sailor at heart ---please give us Crafting with Kelly after Dark!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

[@GinaLovestocraft]

Love how you color ❤️

[@KDVoller]

Right there with you girl, and I’m older than you... My house was the same way, jeez was a bad word, and I must have really rebelled 🤪 Totally do an after dark..

[@TheBrookelizabeth21]

Kelly, I would watch a video of you making toast-for serious. Anything you want to put out there content-wise I am 100% down for. Can’t wait to see what comes of the ideas!!! (And for Eric’s card!!!)

[@sherrywoods4630]

Pretty card. I gotta do a flower-in-a-cup card one of these days. Hmmm....re: the after dark channel. I heard the f bomb all the time, so I’m not shocked per se, but it’s not my favorite thing to listen to. On the other hand, I do adore and enjoy your videos, so I might give it a try, just for the grins. OH - cant wait for Eric’s card. Carissa Wiley has a video where her husband did the voice over. It’s hysterical. (just search Carissa Wiley husband in YT.)

[@shellyrobertson2212]

Beautiful as always!

[@ssmith955]

I am a very blunt person (which often gets me in trouble interacting with other people). The flower in the teacup looks like a Zinnia to me. I also think you should let Eric do a voiceover to one of your videos. I have seen some voiceovers by guys on female makeup channels and it is hilarious (the stuff they know just by being around). Be yourself, be real, be safe.

[@elizabethgunn4765]

I always turn my paper when I’m coloring! If my my images could get dizzy they would fall of the paper! 😂😂😂

[@kerricraft]

YES to the after-dark version of your narration!

[@seashell6772]

Oh Kelly, with no filter or taboo subject you would fit right in with our family!

[@colleenpepper181]

I would totally be down for a crafters after dark channel. Swearing does not bother me any. Love your card and can't wait to see Eric's.

[@samanthajohnson2690]

Oh I can't wait to see Eric's card!!! and to hear his voice over. I myself often have NO FILTER, it can be scary.

[@sallystapleton787]

Fabulous card Kelly I love the blue that you used on the tea cup and saucer. The flower in the cup is a Marigold. I can’t wait to see Eric’s video it sound such fun. I am so pleased you have that fun in your life..xx

[@mgregory5320]

So cute!

[@claudianoriega6421]

Beautiful card! Omg I have the worst mouth ever, well sometimes lol! I try to keep it rated G at work, but even then it's hard! When my son was little I never cursed around him, so he was shocked when he heard me drop them F bombs, but with my daughter, that was a whole different story, oh, but she's not allowed at all to curse, because it's not lady like Lmao! Can't wait to see Eric's card:)
