I am an advanced card maker. These cards are simple but so beautiful.. The decorative envelopes just make them look so wonderful.
Are you kidding me? I LOVE when you show your process and chat with us! Thanks for what you do !
Hi Amber, Thanks so much for sharing these little videos and the chatting! I've been listening to you while I make your projects. I got out of paper crafting a year ago. I took up a new hobby of making soaps, lotions and other bath products.I even have signed up for about 10 craft fairs from Sept till Christmas. This is the first time I have ever done fairs. Thank you again so very much for your "best sellers". At least with them I know I'll at least make my booth fees back $50 - $75. I went through all the pads I've saved for ever and found amazing things! What a gift. I have cards and envies cut (80) ,pad stacks 36, Tea pockets 25 for now, bags of nuggets wrapped and 2 boxes of the Swiss Miss. More of both to wrap for Christmas and for fall. With so many fairs coming up I'm thinking BIG, hoping I can make enough for all the fairs. I can't thank you enough. Eagerly awaiting your next project. Until then I'm off to watch more of your videos. Hugs& Tea~ Leslie
Amber- How creative to make cards with these 12X12 paper pads ! They are super cute! Thanks for sharing!
WOW! Pocket Blossom is in front of me this minute! Thank you for all the ideas. I am finishing your whole video.
Amber, love the simplicity. I tend to overthink but love a simple craft idea. I am not in the US, but I am now craving those hot buy paper pads. Thanks for doing this again. You are awesome and such an inspiration to my and my little one, who loves your videos as well.
Hi Amber you have such great ideas for your stuff each year. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us. Blessings!
I want to thank you for all your inspiration. I guess this is the channel for me. I particularly like watching the parts were you show each and every one of the things that you made individually. Kind of gives me warm fuzzies and like I said earlier wonderful inspiration, thank you so much!
What a great idea to use up the 12x12 pads that I have been hoarding. Thanks for all your great ideas you share!
I just love these cards and your tutorials. Thank you ever so much for taking the time to share your creativity...
I was excited to see that you are doing craft fair ideas for 2017!! Thank you so much!!
I like that you share everything with us not just the tutorial. Thank you! Virginia
I'm SO happy to see this series again! Thanks Amber for sharing your ideas!
What a great way of using up the paper pads. I have so many that I purchased at Michael's as well. Thank you so much for taking the time in doing these videos. I Love Them!! You chit chat all you want. xoxo Carolyn
Hi, I dont sell or do craft shows but i love watching your videos. Thanks for sharing
I really enjoyed this video. I like how you showed how to use up your paper pads. It's so easy to hoard paper. It does you no good if no one ever sees it. I'm adding this to my to do list: cut up paper pads to make cards and envelopes. TFS!
Wonderful idea. You are right - people want cheap at craft fairs, so this should work. TFS
Awe....Amber you may have killed the paper packs but girl you hit the project out of the PARK! these guys are just fabulous. You are so talented, and I super love all your videos. I am a retired teacher who is looking for a way to still teach and be at home. I am disabled and need a outlet to get all my ideas out. You have inspired me to start a channel and get started. Your sweet personality has just built me up and given me such inspiration. AND I PROMISE.....if I use any of your IDEAS to give you all the credit. I have loved every second of every video! Keep Craftin' Nancy
I LOVE EVERYTHING YOU MAKE!!❤️❤️❤️ I LOVE the inspiration you give! My only issue is that I want to make EVERYTHING on your channel! ❤️❤️ It’s so hard to choose! I get aggravated when life gets in the way of my crafting! 😝 Love, Love, Love your channel! ❤️❤️ Thank you for all your great ideas! ❤️
Love it! Thank you for your ideas, I am pulling out my pads that I'm not using and doing the same thing. But I think I will donate them to the air base here for our men and women over seas, so the can write letters to loved ones!
Thank you Amber, I watched both of your videos and will be making both of these projects for a craft fair that I will be selling at in November. I have the envelope maker and it is my absolute favorite way and now only way I make envelopes! I have used several other systems and by far , this is the BEST!!
So glad I found your channel! Love how you explain and talk through everything and go over your pricing.
This is so creative and I have tons of paper pads and I've been stuck on what to do with them...lol and you've inspired me to make some greeting cards. I've loved using stationary ever since I was a little girl and not too often I can find some greeting cards that I like, so you have solved a problem for me...make my own! Thank you so much for sharing your crafting gifts and I look forward to watching more of your tutorials. Have a blessed day Amber.
Your videos are so sweet and valuable!! I am not a craft fair participant but I do send gifts through the mail and it is nerve racking to find small things to add to the main gift being sent. Your ideas are marvelous! This tutorial and also the one with the 3 notepaper pads stacked, are PERFECT for what I am looking for. Thank you so much for being a caring sharing crafter. ( I have some of these "Hot Buys" pads and this will be the perfect way to use the gorgeous foiled papers for paper note pads and card/envelope combos!)
I'm so excited! Thank you as always for sharing and showing us your projects. I love watching how things turn out.
Thank you for your craft fair videos! I just bought the envelope punch board a month ago ($10 @ Tuesday Morning). I'm now taking it out of the package and going to use it thanks to you! I'm using a bunch of your ideas for gift items. I'm glad I found you! I love making paper crafts and find it relaxing and fun. Subscribed and binge watching your channel, XOXO
I managed to make some envelopes- obviously not with the same range of sizes, using the WRMK box punch board. I also bought envelope glue, which seems to work well. This is a great idea! Thanks! I may make a mini card set, like 6 x A7 cards and envelopes in a box. And make them themed. I also love the idea of making a customised letter and envelope set. I make crafts for charity so I'm always looking for inexpensive and easy items to make. Btw, the reason I enjoy your videos is the chatter and descriptions! It motivates me to craft- it's like when someone on a cooking show is describing the smells and taste. It's nice to see someone get enthusiastic about paper, I am the same. When I'm feeling down I find it comforting to look at my beautiful paper, but I have a hard time using them up, I'm a bit of a hoarder.
I am doing this with some plain target dollar spot cards. I am making sets, like you mentioned. I agree that cards work really well for craft fairs. 😊 can't wait for number 2!
You do it YOUR way. I've learned your way and I know how to move on if I'm short on time. I love your ideas and I thank you so much for doing the videos and sharing your talent!
Amber, I watched last year getting ideas and I am thrilled to listen to you chat and learn some new ideas for our craft fairs. Keep on chatting 🐹
I'm so excited I watch each year for you to start your series, I love them!!!!
Wow!! I love love love these cards!! And what a fabulous way to use those paper packs!!
Well you seemed to convince me after cardmaking for ten years to get an envelope punch board. I swung by HL, and they didn't have it!... BUT... they had a new and improved one from We R that makes even larger envelopes, plus boxes and bows! I can't wait to play! 😍🙌🏼 Thanks for the push!!

What was it called?? I want one :)
I was super excited to see you start your craft fair series! I just love all your ideas and have incorporated them in my own life...I love making the hot chocolate packets you made last year! Such sweet gifts for the kids..or just to give as little stocking stuffers. Thank you Amber for taking the time to share your ideas and creativity with us! It is appreciated! Can't wait for the rest of the videos!!! - JoAnn
i love the way you make your videos....i think you provide info when you are talking about what you made, and when you add what you're going to sell them at definitely helps, I always feel like I have a problem setting my prices, my hubby tells me I underprice all the time....he tells me that I put in way too much time and love into all my crafts to not be charging accordingly
So cute! I think the foil flower and donut cards could stand on their own without a sentiment. I may have to do something like this, even just for gifts.
I love and appreciate your videos and your tutorials. I love all the crafts and ideas that you do for us. I always watch all the way through...lol You give a lot of information and I really appreciate it. I don't do scrap booking either. My daughter and I have decided not to do craft shows anymore as I was losing motivation for my crafting. She is very busy also. Plus with all my health problems it was hard for me to help with loading, unloading and setting up and taking down. I am finally enjoying my crafting again and what I am making are things for my grandchildren to hand out in school such as teachers, classmates. Your ideas make great gifts and favors.
Amber! I just love your videos! I have watched many others, but yours are, by far, the best I've seen yet. And I appreciate you sharing those whom you feel are good to watch as well! Thank you so very much for sharing your talent and your gift with us! From sunny Florida, I wish you happy days ahead!
Thank you for this video! I am so excited to use up my 12x12 pads I've been hoarding. I've got a friend that sends out at least 20 cards a month. I've been wanting to give her a ton of cards for Christmas but the ones I've tried making for that are too time consuming. This is perfect! They're super cute but not crazy involved. I'm looking forward to watching all of your other videos. Delighted to have come across you. Thank you again!
I just adore how passionate you are about your crafting and the ideas you come up with for your craft fairs are so clever. Much success at your next show!

Zoya Delune That is so sweet of you to say. Thank you so much, Zoya! xo Amber
I'm in LOVE with this idea! I adore your content- especially the craft fair series. Can't wait for the next video!!
I look forward to your craft fair series and maybe this will be the year I make stuff and sell at my church fair! I have tons of paper!! Thanks for sharing your clear bag info and your talents!
Amber, you never disappoint! I loved these! I have gotten so much inspiration from you! You are an amazing talent! Thank you for sharing your talent and ideas! Can't wait for the "scrap" video. Hugs from MN
Hi Amber, these are so nice and I hope you sale everyone of them. I love your sweet little voice, so encouraging and good instructions. I'm looking forward to seeing all you have for us this craft season. Thank you for your ideas. A fan in North Carolina.
LOVE this idea. Full disclosure I wouldn't be able to help myself, I'm sure I'd have to add a little glitter. TFS. Keep the ideas coming.
Oh my gosh I love the chit chat feels like we are there with you! So fun! Please don't ever change! Hugs

Lynette you are so sweet...thank you! xo Amber
I wait every year for your craft series. Thank you so so much
Another awesome idea and tutorial! I have so many paper packs that I've been hoarding and this tutorial has inspired me to use them up for cards. I'm not a scrapbooker at all but I love making cards so your idea is perfect. Thank you very much for sharing. Cheers!
your cards are lovely, and making your own envelope adds class. online you can find envelope adhesive to make at home (even kosher), and use just like the lick and stick envelopes at office supply stores. i honestly think you should consider this option. i have watched several of your craft fair videos -- you are delightful, knowledgeable, clever and creative. thank you for sharing with everyone.
Hi Amber, long time viewer, your videos are great, the chit chat makes you human and likeable. Your not a machine...so glad for that. I enjoy your videos new and old. Keep the ideas going. Thank you for sharing, Chris
Love Love Love your channel.... I may not give a thumbs up every time.... my hands are busy... but I love them all!!!!! You are such a great craft-educator!!! Keep up the great work!!!! (and talk all you want!!!)
Another great craft project! I have been anxiously awaiting your craft fair series for this year. I still go back and rewatch your past videos. Last year I made a few of your items as gifts for some friends and family. They really loved them! I have probably around fifty 12x12 pads. This project is an awesome way to use them up. I've been collecting paper pads since way back when Joann's used to sell the dcwv pads in those collections (had stickers, mat stacks, big and small pads, etc.... everything matched). So I have really got to get myself to start using some up lol.
Thank you so much for doing this tutorial for us Amber! I live in a very small town with only a Walmart. That being said, we are fifty miles to the closest town that we could take lessons at a Hobby Lobby or Michael's! You and you videos are a huge blessing to all of us that live in the country. Thanks again and God bless! Hugs from North Louisiana! 😘
Love them! What a great way to use up paper pads! Thank you for the great ideas 💜
You're such a joy and inspiration, Amber. ❤️
Ahh...I'm so glad I found your channel! I have been hoarding my paper pads and I'm ready to use up what I have. Thanks for the inspiration!
Also, starting to share your love of Project Life. Bought my first today ... Christmas Wishes; 130 piece pack. Working on your pencil/paper pad idea. That little pack is awesome!!!
I love your craft fair series. And I also love making envelopes.
Thank you so much, this has go to be one of the best ideals that I have seen, in order to use all of the paper pads that I have no ideal what to do with. Love this
I wait for your craft series. Thank u so much. I could never do what u do. I am so grateful
Amber! You have Awesome tools 🤗 I am always crazy about to collect your craft tools Thanks.
Okay, seriously! I have cut up 1 whole pad of paper and am waiting, so impatiently... for your next video!!! Cannot wait to see how I can utilize all these scraps! Thanks for the awesome ideas! You're the best.
Love this Idea!! I do not do craft fairs, but I have about a bazillion ppl on my Christmas list.. Birthday list... etc.. These would be awesome to just have on hand.. Or give multiples as gift sets.. So many possibilities.. ! ( I am excited to get to it! ) Thanks for sharing this idea!! Cheers :D !!
These are so pretty! I LOVE them. thank you for sharing
Love your idea for making these cards, they are so quick and easy. Live your videos.
Brilliant idea, Amber. Love your videos and your personality!
I absolutely love your projects and your videos!!! I love that you chat with us and take the time to show us your work I absolutely love your craft fair series!! 😊
Thanks so much for doing the craft fair series, loved your last ones and can't wait for each of the new ones. They are so helpful and I love the way you do them. Your very good with the directions, what we need, and where to get the items. Thanks again fro sharing.
I just love the simplicity of your beautiful cards I am inspired
Beautiful! They are so polished and professional. I can see how they would fly out of your booth for a buck each. I would buy at least $5 worth. Just lovely!
Hi Amber, you are AMAZING!!!! You are so creative and generous for sharing your talent. I love the manner in which you explain the process. I thoroughly enjoy EVERY word you speak and the lead up to the project itself. Continue to run YOUR channel in the manner you see fit!! After all, I'd say you have had success with your process and I think it's a winning formula. I look forward to viewing more of your fantastic creations!!! Bless you for being you!!! All the best of everything, ALWAYS!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!! ☺️🤗💕💕

Aww thank you so much, Tamala! ❤️ Amber
Love your cards. Fabulous idea. TFS!
They look adorable! I would mix up envelopes and cards just for contrast. Tfs.
This is such a great way to use up those paper pads! Your cards are just gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your process!
I love this. I have the envelope maker and never thought about doing sets. YIKES!
Great idea, looks like a fun and relaxing project!
Thanks so much for sharing! I love project, and that each one uses just one sheet of paper. I do question whether you actually make anything, considering the paper, the plastic bags, and your time. But, I would totally love the price if I was the one buying! lol Anyway, I have SO MANY sheets of paper, and really need to use them, so this is perfect! Again, thanks for sharing.
These cards are so adorable. Love your techniques with the 12 x 12 sheet. I'm definitely going to try this out. Thanks so much for sharing and good luck with your craft fair.
Don't change what you do I love watching you craft and I love your Idea's
Amber, I love your videos! You do a great job of explaining each step of the project and its so helpful that this item can be mass produced in a short amount of time.
Love your videos! Great ideas and tips! Thanks for sharing! I watch the whole video!!
I love your videos & projects. Thank you for sharing your ideas and tutorials with us. God bless, Peggy
Yeyyy!!! It's that time of the year again! I always look forward on your craft fair series. I can always get ideas for Christmas gifts. And this year I am planning to contribute some craft items on a craft fair. Tfs Amber! xoxoElaine
I love this idea! I was just wondering how to finish up my 12x12 pads after I use most of it for other projects. This is a crazy good solution! :)
Thank you Amber, another wonderful tutorial!
I am definitely doing these for my craft fair in May. Thank you for all your ideas.
I love your chatty videos so chat away!!! What a cute idea these are!!! Good luck with them!!! Cannot wait to see what else you have in store!!!
Hi Amber, this is a great idea for quick and easy craft show projects and they are super cute! Thanks for sharing with us and I am looking forward to this series, Lisa.
Love your craft series. Thankyou for sharing!
Great tutorial! i just bought three pads at Michaels for 5.99 each! I will sure put them to good use with this card idea! Thanks so much!
