I've never thought about decorating the entire card before. Just that lil bit of extra makes it special. Thank you!

It really gives you a lot more opportunity to use up scraps and left over ephemera. And, use more stamps!!

Glad you're back. I love to use up my scraps. Helps keep my scrap room a little neater.

Great use on your scraps. Yeah I too have difficulty with a lot of uses but the more I watch you more confident I’m getting. I like the additional paper usage on the inside/backside of the cards. Thank you💌

Great to see you! Loved the video! Can’t wait to see more in the future. I been watching a ton of your older videos and have actually been making some cards each day thanks to your videos inspiring confidence in myself. I am still trying to wrap my head around all the steps and prep work it takes to make fabulous cards. I even like what I have made. Woo Hoo! Be good to yourself and take time to simply relax each day. Have a great evening and a wonderful day tomorrow.

Seeing your video up here tonight was the perfect way to end my day! I was thinking about you today as I was settling my craftroom up here in GA, as was wondering if you were "up north" crafting away! So happy to see you creating again! I love the idea of decorating all of the card real estate! Thats a wonderful idea! I enjoy watching you use paper wishes products for your cards. I have a bunch of their sets from my scrapbooking days and I recently started using it for cards. They have some beautiful sets! That first set with the purple wild flowers is lovely and I am certain I have that same paper. That was clever how you saved the card that that you didn't like the back panel, nice save!!

Oh Maureen I am so glad you enjoyed it. That is really lovely paper and I am always happy to use up a bit of it. And, it's amazing how much more paper you can use when you use more card panels. We are still only in GA once a month for now. But, making real progress on the farm now.

What a clever idea.

I've inherited so many SU woodblock sets from my mil. Frankly I'm so used to the very large stamps/dies now that I just didn't know what to do with these sets. Lots of very small stamps and "border" stamps. Thank you so much for all of the great ideas of how to use them! :D Plus...I really need to use up this patterned paper--more than a lifetime supply! 4 sides to decorate...yaassss

My dear friend Julia... hello! 💖 I was delighted to watch your video, and even though out of focus a little it was still very easy to watch comfortably. Well, my friend these cards are a little different and a perfect way to use up lots of scraps in one card. I have never thought of using up all the 'Real Estate' on my cards, and these cards were a complete surprise for me especially when you opened up the card to reveal the centre. I had a plethora of Martha Stewart punches, but only have a few now. When I was going through my studio a year or so ago decluttering the majority of my punches left my craft studio because I NEVER used them! Even now with the punches I still have I NEVER reach for them as they don't appear to fit the type of cards that I make. Julia, how do you find it working in your new craft space? I pray that you have lots of fun and continue to create beautiful cards. God's blessings, love and hugs. Gloria 🤗☕🍰💐❤

Hi Gloria - Oh I was so disappointed when I got back to Tennessee and discovered the camera was out of focus. I am using Jon's old phone camera now, and just didn't have all the settings quite right. I had to open my phone settings and go line by line to compare his old phone with mine. Hopefully, I have ever little thing set right now. Next video will tell. I record in Georgia and wait to get back to Tennessee to edit. It's just the way it is for right now. I am feeling much more love for the GA studio these days. Each time we go, I get a few more things unpacked. And I am adjusting to the smaller space...Love and Hugs back!! Julia

Beautiful cards.

Glad you enjoyed it Jan! It certainly helps to use up some extra paper scraps, by covering all the panels!

I try to decorate all the inside,most times scripture on the left side and sentiment on right. Don’t do much on back except my made by stamp. Loved all of what you did though.
