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.

Thanks Judith! I always like making a few of these every year...
Never thought of fun foam for a mat layer, but I love it on your card. A lovely set of Christmas cards you have there and another reminder that I need to get started on making some myself.

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 🥰🌷🍁🍂🍁❤

Thanks Ellen - I always end up with a few. I think it's because every once in a while I just get in color overload perhaps.
Beautiful card..

Lovely cards. Will try the fun foam - bought some ages ago and never used it but I’ll make sure to try it now. Thanks for the inspiration

Glad to hear it Susan! I'm glad you are getting something out of the videos.
These are lovely, elegant Christmas cards! I think I have to keep a list of the ways to use the drywall tape to help me. I have never tried using the fun foam as a layer but I am going to give it a go.😉 Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity with us!❤

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...
Beautiful and elegant julia. Warm wishes from norfolk england. X

I would love to see your process for fall birthday cards.
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
I love your cards. I noticed you have a “chart” with mat layer sizes. Where can I find that chart? It’d be so helpful.

Hi Terrie - I keep that over on the facebook page. Here is a link - facebook.com/seniorsusiestamps/posts/pfbid02oyabqJZ1YDMbXcTXMK6VwoBPMbHLYWdiZiCR9m7P3KgthRfudhXZWWsFX7fwTFokl
Could you dry the ink on the fun foam with a heat tool?

Hi Barbara - I actually tried that on day 2 LOL. I think if you want to stamp on fun foam it will have to be Stazon.

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
