Hi Marion - I was "playing" with my wonderful new embossing products and "doo dahs" and I wanted to share with everyone what I did....I combined this video along with your glitter rainbow video (fawn lawn rainbow die); and I cut card stock strips that were covered with Elizabeth Craft double sided adhesive....then I glittered them different colors using Wow Sparkle! So I had glitter striped card...make sense? It was so cool - thank you so much for your wonderful inspiration and lessons - Janice, USA

Right off the get go as you went through your stash, I saw the spelllbinders dies that are supposed to be delivered tomorrow and had a chuckle! We’re so alike! I have a $200 cart sitting there of things I want now and they’re starting to sell out on me! Just don’t have the money. I have a kidney dr bill and the ER bill when I had to go just to ask how to taper off my medications because my dr wouldn’t ever tell me! And the ER dr couldn’t because they aren’t trained in that! Oh if you knew half of what I’ve been going through…. I think you’d want to come over to this side of the pond and give them a piece of your mind! It’s been a real nightmare. Watching you makes me so happy! I have strip dies from Simon says. But I had to buy 2 sets to get all of them. But I have used them and love the look! The card I made for you that you never got had a stripped circle on it and an embossed flower, remember I showed you a picture?

@@marionemberson being unable to do all the physical work I need to do and that it’s been very dry until recently, I’ve had time to make a bunch of cards! I did all my Christmas cards(30), and (15)Thanksgiving cards, (2) get well cards and (4) birthday cards! And an extra Christmas card that was for my friend in Florida! I’ve had a little break now . I just swept out all the debris from my large mulch beds yesterday and was in so much pain I couldn’t catch my breath! It took about an hour. So I’ve been busy making cards. I’m thinking of sending yours very early to see if it makes it there! Do you think that your post gets confused when I mark it “do not bend “ and “ non machinable “? I’m using plain cardboard mailers now for all my birthday or special cards. I can still decorate the envelope but I put it in the plain mailer and so far they have been getting where they should go. I’m convinced that because I decorate the envelopes too, there are some evil ppl that see it and think there might be a gift card or money in it and open it and toss the card in the garbage! So in the blank cardboard mailer no one knows what it looks like or could be.

@@marionemberson we have a special stamp that costs more and says non machinable and I stamp it non machinable. It tells our post department that they cannot put it through a machine they have to hand cancel them and then they should be protected from being smashed or ripped. But even if your post doesn’t know what that means it shouldn’t stop them from delivering it. I mean non machinable is pretty easy to figure out what it means. But I’m the white mailers I won’t have to mark them that way. I’ll still use the stamps I have that are non machinable and for mass cards for thanksgiving here and Christmas I’ll just use regular envelopes. But I’ll mail yours in a cardboard mailer just in case.

Hi Marion! Nice watching your videos as always. I'm recently working with the sizzing Big Shot and today I was triying some of the dies cut and finded out that the diying cuts are transfering in to the cutting pads ( I am quite upset because it's brand new). I have been watching videos and I can see that is something that happens to most everyone. Do you know any way to protect the cutting pads? Thanks a million

@marionemberson

Hi Sarah, sadly there’s nothing you can do about it, I get sad too as I love them looking all pristine, you can keep one for the cut side only and turn it over regularly to help with the warping, I hope that helps 🥰🥰🥰

Sad to say but they use extra tape on things not only to hold in place. But to detour any thieves trying to get into the packs.😊

Hi, these are the ones I used, the link is in the video description if you want to take a closer look. Size: Dies are 8.5" long and 1.5" wide. Each die cuts a different number and width of strips: Three 1/2" strips Five .3" strips Six 1/4" strips Eight 3/16" strips I hope this helps xx
