Super cards, Natalie. Your trick of cutting the paper and then joining them to make a thin wide surface is genius! I will definitely use this, it really makes sense for multiple card makes.

Love how you created the backgrounds and how you compiled each design. Love butterflies too! Really like the Birthday stars card too. Thank you for all the tips, tricks and processes 😊

Stunning cards. I love how you do your backgrounds and then do the cards. Clean, simple and very elegant. Thankyou.😊😊

No need to apologize for using butterflies. They are pretty. Everyone has their "things" to use on cards. Yours just happens to be butterflies. Thank you for sharing. Audra

Good morning Natalie. What awesome cards. I too love butterflies -- my motto, "when in doubt use butterflies" -- great job. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊

You don't have to apologize every time I make a card I seem to be putting butterflies whether they did teeny ones Or big ones Thank you for being very creative

love the textures you have created and the way you look at it and add more where needed to complete the look you want. Thanks.

Amazing again!!! Love those colours. Who would think that putting extra black dots on would make so much difference!!! ❤

@wendywell4864 6 months ago

Thought the backgrounds were so effective that focal points weren't especially needed. Numbers 3 and 4 were my favourites!

I usually seem to learn something from your videos. And thank you for your devotion to inspiring those of us who follow you.

Thanks for all of the inspiration and beautiful cards. You stock me so full of ideas that I surely will never run out, but I’ll never stop watching. Thanks for all you do.

Beautiful background. Orienting the paper before adding co!or is SO helpful, yet I often forget to do it. Beautiful cards. Thank you.

@dawnkepler3748 6 months ago

Beautiful! I love the colors you used. You just can’t have too many butterflies!

@joycehitchen1046 6 months ago
