    I was given some “slimline” envelopes a few years ago and have been making cards in that size. It’s nice to work with a new size that fits some elements better than A4.

  41. Vicci says

    Goodness, Cathy, I so enjoy your videos. Your humor always makes me smile. This is the first time I have seen the mini slims and that polka dot stencil is adorable.

    Easy but pretty cards. I like way you used the colors with the stencils to make your own background.

  92. Diana says

    I have just started with the larger slimline – the mini’s will be the next one I try. I always enjoy your videos.

  96. Rebecca Hood says

    Very nice! Your word dies are some of my favorites. The sassy mom stamps are great! Also – glad you gave sound effects some props! They are highly under rated :o)

  99. Sheila Bacon says

    I’ve been receiving your emails with videos for some time. The videos are well-organized, informative, and well-paced. I always learn something new and am inspired to use different designs (e.g. dots, stripes). You are very talented so keep creating.

  102. Lee Miner says

    The thing is, there is not P in ROY G BIV so the Pink shouldn’t be there. And when it combines with a neighbor it becomes almost Coral. Nope – not there. And if they were gone you’d have room for Purple but why — I ask you WHY?– have you dumped Indigo!? Two thirds of the dot card were RPOY, for goon’ess sake. So. That aside, adorable cards, the dots and stripes are both must-haves, love the font you use and these are great simple cards. (Hope you know the rant is just teasin’).

  103. Carol Wortman says

    Love the simple/ sweet/ rainbow/ easy/ clean card! Your designs are my favorite! 👉 loveing the All the Feels release!

    Though I haven’t made any yet, I am really liking the new mini slimline cards. Your stenciled backgrounds look fantastic and offer the opportunity to add some fun colors to each design. I personally need more stencils!
