For my second YouTube live of the year, I’m playing with some VERY fun products from my friend, Tim Holtz. Even though half the live was spend putting foam squares on the letters, the reveal is worth it! Or at least that is the story I’m going with!

I only had a few technical difficulties today, so here you are:

Very appropriate sentiment in lieu of what is happening in the world. I missed the beginning of the live so will have to watch the video replay to see the start of making this card. Looking forward to seeing your new craft room.

Hi Cathy, I watched most of the live but somewhere in the middle (after I made a comment about a train wreck when I wasn’t prepared to buy Tim’s product when he introduces it), there was an actual train wreck right behind my house! House shook, lots of black smoke. Seems there was some miscommunication and an express train hit a construction truck working on electrifying the tracks. Some dicey moments but now there just cleaning it up. No trains coming through here for a while though. I came back at the end of the live but I’d missed the part about posting on your blog so I posted on Instagram. I went back to see what I missed and saw about posting here. Great card. I waiting with baited breath for my switch. Hopefully, it will be here soon.

I tried leaving this comment on YouTube, but it wouldn’t let me. Anyways, I love all of your cards, but this one rocks! I love the colors! I liked the unblinged card so much that I was apprehensive when you started booping, but the bling REALLY did bring the card together. It was amazing to me that simple, well placed sequins can make such a difference. Thank you for sharing your inspiration!

I love this card- and that stamp set! I know it will end up in my SSS basket!
I have been using the Switch for a little over a month now, so far so good! I randomly got the only one at our Hobby Lobby, it’s a pretty melon color, love that it can use the smaller cutting pads as well as the size it comes with.

Hi Cathy, I did miss the LIVE but the replay was AwwweSOME!! You always have funny (but cool) comments which is ONE of the reasons why I’m a ‘Subscriber’! I’m really excited your hubby gave you the go ahead on moving your CRAFTing area UPSTAIRS!!! WooHoo for you!!
Will your weekly YouTube be at 12:00pm CDT since we get to do that craziness tomorrow or ET?
