Christmas Cards with Peaceful Doves

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Fun Foam can really add a lot to a card layer. These are very simple and quick cards to make, but somehow they seem elevated a bit with the addition of a fun foam backer. Christmas Cards with a variety of Peaceful Dove Stamps.

    Hi there Julia, I Love, love, love these cards, and I would happily make them as my Christmas cards. 🕊🕊🕊 As you know I usually make Christian themed cards, and I believe that these would pass for sure. I am always on the lookout for Christian stamps, dies and other products if I can find them, and I am on the lookout for suitable stamps etc... now for next year's Christmas cards. Julia, you have a lovely collection of Dove stamps, and I trust that they will go with you when you move as they seem to fit in one container... LOL!!! 🤣 As always God's blessings, love and hugs from your friend Gloria 🥰🌷🍁🍂🍁❤

    Hey Susan - You are so welcome! Use a good glue with fun foam. I like the self adhesive kind that you only have to glue on one side...

    First of all let me say that I hate to keep bothering you but I do watch your videos almost exclusively so when I have a question, it's you I think of. My problem is finding double sided foam tape. I've searched Amazon and can't find anything except rolls and circles or pads and since I do not know how to judge the thickness or width, I thought I would ask you. I would like sheets of it where I could just cut what I need. Keep up the great videos. They are exactly right. Thanks.

    Hi Catherine - Glad you are enjoying the channel! I use rolls that I put on release paper, so I cans custom cut as needed. Since I put an Avery label on every card, I end up having quite a bit of release paper so it's easy to pull the strips off the roll once a month or so. This is what I use - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VZFBTQP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

    Hi Wendy - Yes it sounds like the same type of store. They recently went from $1 to $1.25 and up. There are all kinds of things in the store, one of the catgories is crafty things. And we happen to have a store in the little town I live near, so it's a bit hard to resist!! LOL
