You NEED To See My NEW Cardmaking Supplies! Betterpress & Embossing

[@simon.hurley]

Hey friends! I hope you enjoyed seeing a look at my new Spring Cardmaking supplies with Spellbinders. :) ✭ FULL supply list with PICTURES: ldli.co/e/9d9n1nn Leave a comment letting me know which card and product is your favorite!

[@ellieroberts8132]

Thankyou for all the embossing techniques

[@melissagutierrezbrokeroregon]

use thin tissue paper under the better press so you don't get ink on the plate. I have also used wax paper as well. You can still see the lines. Love your videos.

[@jalisaalanaye1662]

I’m not into doing crafts but your card reels came on my recommended videos and I’m so impressed with you! It’s crazy how young you are and how much you’ve saturated the craft world ! It’s so cool to see how many good products have your name on it or is something you made yourself, good for you ! I hope you continue to prosper and do well for yourself, im sure in 10 years you’ll have so many more products❤

[@lisagreer6109]

Simon, I absolutely

[@patriciawilson4135]

Love these products, especially the bunnies which I noted were sold out at this time. OK, I need to get out my stamping foam. Also, that embossing folder is to die for. Thanks for all the great demos.

[@laurabush9812]

Happy to hear you’ll keep coming out with Betterpress plates!

[@mariegerwing9554]

Oh wow! I did not know that about using the plastic piece to get an even straight edge on the cardstock. Best tip I have seen in ages! Thanks, Simon

[@dianemcdonald3900]

I love your magnolia better press plates! Awesome fun with the basket weaves!!

[@edith2535]

Both cards are lovely.

[@mmaez6146]

Thanks for the tips. Great cards!

[@KellyWhickerCards]

I keep watching and learning something new every time I watch this video. I'm going to try those embossing techniques in my next video. I love the woven embossing folder!

[@Janwillcreations]

Your card creations were so charming! I love the new basketweave embossing folder. Going on my wish list. Thanks Simon for sharing your products and your talent!

[@kganda415]

I want to make my own cards to give to friends and family. And I am learning a lot just by watching your videos. Amazing designs, hacks, and tips. Thank you! 🥰

[@susanhammitt7080]

your painting is wonderful. I love the bunnies. The bunny card so cute. That one standing up is too precious.

[@pattir9591]

I really like the expressions on the bunnies faces...their smiles are so sweet!

[@vshepp8675]

Loved all your cards but especially the first one. You have designed great products. Happy to hear you have made products for BetterPress! Love the bunnies!

[@jeanetteelliott9527]

Love those colors! You're also a joy to watch. Such a sweet smile 😊

[@annsmith5625]

I really like the stamping foam! ⚾️

[@Sylvia.Torres]

Hi Simon! ❤ I really love with the bunny betterpress set and the last card you made with the basket weave background. Thank you for such great inspiration. 😊

[@ChrystalsChreationsWycoff]

Loved all the card making tricks that you did. one of my favorites was the basket looking embossing folder.

[@createwithkas]

Spring Magnolias! That is my favorite flower on the planet! ❤

[@gloriametcalf538]

Simon, I like your collection. Really like the bunnies card. Have a soft spot in my heart for bunnies as we have them in our yard. They're a joy to watch. We also give them carrots and corn. Our daughter adopted 3 and since have passed. One was pretty young, and the 2 other were much older. She plans to adopt a couple more. They are a joy to have.

[@nicolinavincelli9369]

Simon love the new collection, something about rabbits, is so touching, thank you for sharing always.

[@simon.hurley]

Thank you!! Right? I love those adorable bunnies! :)

[@LisaVornhagen]

All of those products are so great! I want them all! I really love that last card!

[@ann-marieo.5359]

Gorgeous cards 🥰!! I absolutely adorable this collection! This is what I’m going to use for my Easter cards! I’m so excited that you are doing BetterPress. I love the basket weave embossing folder, it’s so versatile! You hit it out of the park with this collection!!

[@karenthomas2302]

I love your stamps and many of the goodies you have, I will have to tell you I hit a major score when I walked into a local thrift shop only thing I can imagine for them all to be their was someone’s passing, but their where maybe 50 of your stamps not many of your dies only one that matched up, I’m sure they are most likely some of your older stamps but for me I felt I hit the lotto lol I bought as many as my bank account would allow me with a few $$ to spare try like 40$ worth of them, ranging from 2$ - 4$, I did the happy dance all the way to the car. I thank the person for the donation of them or the family members that donated them. Because I love your stamps and dies but can’t afford them. 😢 Tfs this fun stuff you have love it. ❤😊

[@jackiejohnson1517]

I love all of it. i couldn't pick a favorite. It's just stunning. Thank you.

[@XenobiaF]

I smiled when you took out the die cutting machine! Thank you!

[@donnaschraeder8670]

I have a hard time with fussy cutting, so I love that the dies come with the plates!

[@wendymiller3]

Simon, I love all your videos. They are always informative and at the right pace (a lot of craft videos totally annoy me). OMG I laughed out loud when you were putting the embossing folder through the die cut machine and you were staring at us and saying it was awkward. You could have cut that out, but you didn't and it made my day because it is so my humor. Thanks for the video and putting a smile on my face. Have a great day!!!

[@suedunkerton7493]

Thank you Simon it is very helpful for us to know how to use all the things that you show us.😂

[@sherrihero9260]

Simon I love watching you make different cards and show on us the different techniques. That basket weave. It's great. I will have to see if I can get a hold of that embossing folder.

[@MsShanarun]

Really fun cards. My favorite is the bunny card. I am a sucker for bunnies, Clear Skies & the circle center focus!

[@T.Underwood-xl2nz]

I have had vellum crack in places using the 3-D embossing folders. As always, another great video. I have just returned to card making after being out of it for almost 12 years. There are a lot of wonderful and new supplies out there. Love it!!

[@simon.hurley]

Yay!! Welcome back to Cardmaking. :)

[@momoclangford4673]

Great video and cards! I've learnt so much. Thank you. 😊

[@artsy_again]

Burst out laughing at the awkward silence! 😂

[@LynnMLeBel]

Lynn Le Bel Great tips SIMON! Love the stamping foam and the last card was my favourite!!

[@judibradshaw1948]

Awesome products!!! Fabulous projects ❤

[@reba86442]

This is stunning. Well done

[@sarascreations6637]

Love this collection and the "ackward" moments LOL going to have to order this. I have never tried letter press so this should be fun. Well done "dude" Sending hugs.

[@simon.hurley]

Hahaha Thanks so much Sara! Glad you enjoyed the video and collection. :)

[@tammyjones6358]

I loved the foam and ordered it. Thanks for the very thorough video.

[@EC-R]

Betterpress is making its way to the top of my wish list. 🤩

[@PatNorris-uq4uv]

I have those magnets...love them!!

[@PatNorris-uq4uv]

LOL

[@kmatto_kmatto]

Love that you showed the Stamping Foam some more. They work really well. Plus, now we have Awkward Letterpressing and Embossing -- Fabulous!

[@ValleyOakPaper]

Love your new collection, Simon! 🐰

[@susanburrows5288]

AAWWWWW, those bunnies!

[@michellewilson6137]

Simon thank you for the amazing demo! Quick question other than Easter what else could the basket Embossing folder be used for? Looking for inspiration., maybe something Holiday themed?

[@kayfurnish8715]

I have been trying to figure out a good storage system for my BetterPress plates and dies, so thanks for the great tips! It's very exciting that you are creating Press Plates and matching dies now - Kudos!!! I think the last card with the bunnies is my favorite today, but really do love all of them. So many useful tips today!!

[@kimjriley5463]

Great tips. Love the bunnies! Love the awkward silence! Lol!!

[@zhanita1390]

Ok. Amo tus trabajos. Practico mi Inglés viendo tus vídeos. Me enamoré

[@bertas-cards]

Love the BetterPress plates. Love the packaging even more, my hands thank you for this.

[@susanhammitt7080]

woven basketweave emboss is lovely.

[@aidaheelan6183]

Love all of them. Great ideas.

[@moniquevann9950]

Cute collection Simon 😊👍

[@vshepp8675]

Beautiful card!

[@kakylong2]

Simon, It was great hearing you chime in on Maymay's channel the other night. Great video. 😊

[@carollewis1644]

Love your videos. Could you tell me where you purchased the metal tool that picks up your dies. Thanks in advance!

[@EmilyWood1996]

I laughed when you just put your inks on your table to ‘paint’ from. What better palette is there than the table? Lol

[@poppythecat454]

I believe that Simon is working on a large glass crafting mat, which you can buy at specialist craft shops. Never put inks on the table.

[@bertas-cards]

@@poppythecat454no he isn’t using a glass-mat. It is just the surface of his desk. He says what it is in his craft room tour video.

[@BarbS548]

Hi Simon! I just got your Big Hugs set and they are so fun! I made a wobble pug card! I never considered a BetterPress, but I think I'll get one now because I really want to make your new bunnies! I have a question about your Amazon link above. Do you earn on anything on the Amazon site using the link or only your branded items? Asking because I buy a lot of general items from Amazon that I can't seem to find in local stores (boring stuff like mouthwash, etc). Seems like I like things that walk in stores have discontinued carrying. Have a good weekend!

[@laurentaylormade]

eeee! I love it so much!

[@rebeccamchaffie9232]

The rabbits are darling

[@iambored73]

Hi Simon, Do you throw away the packaging when you put the dies on the magnet sheet?

[@gingerphillips765]

All nice 🎉❤🎉❤

[@Bryant4vr]

Hello, I am wondering can you use the Better Press plate with the Sizzix switch?

[@beckylake5241]

Great tutorial and beautiful cards. Where can I buy these products? I’ve never seen better press before.

[@simon.hurley]

You can find all of the products that I used here: ldli.co/e/9d9n1nn

[@patty45ful]

Simon can you se the better press plates on Gemini

[@susandillion9614]

do you need the betterpress platforms to use the die plates? or can these be used with the normal plates?

[@noreenhennessy9299]

So cool

[@darlenegreen1089]

Hey there, Simon, I have a question. What's the difference? Or I should say the benefit of letter press as opposed to stamping your image?

[@simon.hurley]

Good question! The main difference is the luxe inlaid texture that it gives the stamped impression. It feels very high end. :)

[@karenboucher9409]

Doesn’t cutting the 8mage out, after using the better press, flatten the image?

[@simon.hurley]

No. I find that it doesn't flatten the images. :)

[@beadpoet]

How do you start a business working with a company?

[@brooklynmidnightcrafter]

No more magnetic storage sheets, sold out.

[@simon.hurley]

Check them out here: ldli.co/e/76dkzr4 They should be in stock now. :)

[@hihowareya4004]

[@pwt136]

Mmll

[@christineruscoe3487]

Hi Simon, I have loved watching you for a long time now but in this video, you are talking so fast I find it hard to listen to you.. Please can you talk a little slower it would be so much better it feels like you are racing to get all your video finished quickly. You are so inspiring teaching us all. xxx Chrissy

[@rch4014]

Try going to settings (wheel on up right of video, appears after you tap or open the screen) and change playback speed to 75%. It’s not too slow for his speech pattern.

[@ginaward8313]

I’m loving all the new projects! It’s 6 days till my 65th birthday and I’m buying myself everything to celebrate!!

[@ginaward8313]
