Make a Card Monday - December 3, 2007
This week's Make a Card Monday is brought to you by Heat & Stick powder and a whole lot of glitter! As you can see in the video, I had NO idea what I was doing! I started out thinking the card base was going to be white and then later changed my mind. Oh, well!Anyhow, I hope you all enjoy it! Actual time to create the card: 23 minutes.
NOTE: The song used in the video is "Nattöppet" by Detektivbyrån. Get a free MP3 download of the song at www.detektivbyran.net. I absolutely loved this song in the Sprint commercials, so I had to track down the song and artist. :)

I really like the comments you add to the video :) I think it's fun to see your creative process, thanks!
Oh my goodness...you totally rock! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this card! And I'm really enjoying the make a card monday. Sometimes it just helps to SEE someone make the actual card! I love your ideas! THANK YOU!
I love, love, LOVE this card! And video is so great too! I love the simplicity (so many projects I see out there are way too complicated and busy in my opinion!) Thanks for the inspiration!
I love this card and the video Mondays
The colors are beautiful.
Ok Kristina, I'm going to whine!! I am on dialup because we live out in the toolies and nothing else is available. So, I cannot view your videos - well I could but it's quite frustrating seeing them in teeny, tiny bits and then waiting and waiting for the next teeny tiny bit. Is there anyway you can provide these tutorials for any of us on dialup. I love your stuff and really miss learning from your tutorials. *sniff* please. :0)
Thanks for this great tutorial - love the card - I'm going to try your idea! And... I'm so glad you tracked down that song - I really like it too!
Love it! Love the music, the cute card, the simple style, your direction....all of it! Keep 'em comin'!
so you know: not only do i truly enjoy your stuff, but my 6yo dd ADORES watching your videos and thinks your videos are the best. thanks for making me look good because we watch your videos together!
I'm just really glad to see that it takes you a while to get the backing off your dimensionals too! Really lovely card. Thanks for sharing it with us and for the peek into your creative process. Looks a lot like mine...how come my stuff doesn't come out the same, eh?!? ;)~
Your videos are so fun to watch. I'm amazed that you can sit down and do this not knowing beforehand what you're going to do. I think I'd buckle under the pressure. Great job, great card.
Just saw this card on SCS so had to rush right over............L O V E the video! Perfect music!
Great card and I love your video!
Very cute card. Love the colors. I have always wondered about the Perfect Layer tool. I might have to try that out now!
Thanks for another great idea!

You have totally inspired my Christmas card this year! I love it when you use glitter!
thank you for "make a card monday"!
FUN!
I LOVE make a card Monday. I can't believe how quickly a card comes together for you. It would have taken me an hour to come up with something that brilliant!
Beautiful card, Kristina! Love it AND the music! Off to download it now! ;) Oh, and EVERYTIME I watch one of your videos or see one of your beautiful creations it makes me want to stop whatever it is that I'm doing and go and create something. Love that. Thank you! :)
Oh I love your videos I am loving Make a Card Mondays! You sure know how to make a girl smile on a Monday! TFS :)
I'm off to see if I can make my own version now :)!!
Wow, I love this!!!!! I'm totally inspired and really think that I MUST go make this card right now!!!!!!
Alright, I'm hooked! I visit your blog at least twice a day to see what's new. You are such an inspiration for card making. Thanks for sharing your wonderful ideas. P.S. Looks like you've lost some weight. Great job with WW. I love your cards!
I just wanted to say thanks for the MaCM videos! I like to see your creative process, and how a card develops into the final product--even if it doesn't go exactly as you had initially planned. I love your clean and simple, but elegant style!! Thanks for sharing.
My daughter is 8 and she likes to watch the videos with me. She calls you the curly hair girl because of the video that just shows your eyes.
Really, I learn so much and I was going to work with my heat and stick powder today to make ornaments. My upline uses a baskin robbins spoon for glitter which I love because it is cute, small and pink.
So first, I must say, when I opened your site and saw the card, I whispered, "Oh, WOW." HA!
Then I watched the video and my 3 year old came over and watched it on my lap. He said, "Why is she so fast at making that? (pause) She's really fast!" ha again.
LOVING that card!
loved seeing someone else's creative process at work. :)

This video just blew my (tiny) mind - it was amazing! You are one talented lady. Now, off to make the card....

I love EVERYTHING you do, Mondays are now my Fav day of the week... Just because of make a card Monday... Thank you for sharing
Cool! I just love your videos --- very inspiring. We are getting ready for a snowstorm here --- so I knwo I am going to be doind some stamping -- thanks for the idea. I love how you made a Christmas card without using a Christmas set. :)
thanks so much for sharing how you come to the final version of a card. i have to get some ziploc containers for my powders now, and get heat and stick! your work is an inspiration...
Enjoy your videos and adore your work. Do you find that you get better results using sticky powder and glitter, rather than using a sparkling embossing powder? Just curious...
ALl I can say is: DITTO....to all comments that came beeeeeeeefore me!....ROCK-a-LICIOUS!!
Love, love this card! What did you use to tie the ornaments (hemp/linen thread)?
Many thanks for amazing and inspiring designs.
Love the design! So simple! And I'm so intrigued by the fact that you use a hobby blade to cut everything, rather than a big bulky cutter ... I find I never cut anything straight with those!
Keep the videos coming! :)
I look forward to your "make a card monday". I often wonder about using dimensionals behind a larger panel. I always thought you had to use a strip, but you only used 5 "dots". That proves to show your videos are so informative.
Thanks for sharing your talent.
Your videos are amazing and mesmerizing to watch. It's so good of you to share your clever and creative card creations with others. I look forward to every new video; thanks so much!
My mind is changed about Stampin' Up! So many cool little tools and you are def. really creative with all your ideas. I made two cards last night using the idea of your technique so keep them coming!
Hey! I have never seen a perfect layers tool in action! I am sold! I have hase customers ask me what the point would be to use it...now I know, thanks! Oh, and do you have any great ideas for baby announcements???!! :) I will be making about 60 of them for our brand new daughter. They need to be somewhat impressive(people look to me for inspiration you know, if they only knew how much I cheat!!!), but I am making 60, so not totally time consuming. I love the "Oh Baby" announcement you have on your site, but don't have that set. And I have looked around for a "stitches" stamp, but I can't seem to find one either. Anyway, I know you are busy and this is that a "service", just thought I'd ask anyways 'cause I'm greedy for ideas!
I really enjoy your blog and Make a Card Monday. I think it's great that you tidy up your stamp area after each step...I thought I was the only one who did that! Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing your ideas and creations with all of us.
I love your song suggestions and the songs you use for your fun videos! What a nice chance to win a CD! thanks!
I am a new stamper, and to watch your video, it help me out alot. I just love how you make it look so easy. I can't watch to see more of your videos to help me alone.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE looking at your website. You have the greatest little U-tube videos. I love your style!! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas
I just wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your video --- makes me think I can do that! Great ideas, great cards and I'll be back for more.
I just love this videos. Great inspiration and just plain fun to watch. I just love all of your creative ideas! I can't wait to see the next one.
c'est superbe j'adore !!!!!!
I am soooooo excited you showed how to use the perfect layers tool!! I have debated about that item!! Not anymore! Going on my next order!!!
