MACM - Accents & Elements 101
Hi all!I'm still obsessing a little bit over Accents & Elements kits, so the card for this week's video uses another kit. :) These really are awesome kits... But enough of that. I'm sure you're all sick of me going on and on about them.
This week's card took 17 minutes, but only because I couldn't decide what to do! It took a bit longer because I didn't really have a plan before I set out to make the card. Sometimes I'll have a glimpse of an idea, but other times like when I made this video, I have NO idea. Anyway, I'm sure if I cut out all the indecisiveness, it would have taken me about 7 minutes. :)
Something to note about the video: I have a typo in it about half way through when I use the felt flower. The Flower Fusion Accents & Elements kit is actually $14.95 US. Sorry 'bout the confusion. I really should upload a new version of this video, but I didn't want to make ya'll wait until tonight to get the new MACM.

I didn't think it was possible for me to love A&E more, but I do! Love it, as always. Thank you for doing this!
Thank you for a wonderful blog. I check it out EVERY day. I love your style - you inspire me.
Great card, love those colors together!
Thank you for your videos. I love MACM so does my daughter who is seven years old. Ariana will say to me "You know what tomorrow is mom? (She says this Sunday night) MACM!
Love it, Kristina! Love the music, too - Keane is fabulous! I love how you've put together so many of the embellishments and layered the button on the felt flower! Beautiful as always! Happy Monday!!!
You are so inspiring. You make me want to just play with paper all day long. I think we should have MACE....make a card everyday. I love it.
Never noticed this item before -- thanks for sharing info about it !
Wow. Gorgeous card. I need those felt flowers too. Can we have MACED (Make a Card Everyday)?
I gotta tell you, I saw a SU card in the recent issue of Paper Crafts Mag and she used Pumpkin Pie and Purely Pomegrante CS...I know you go through these colors phases...thats my phase now. Love it!
and I gotta know...how many packages of dimensionals do you go through. I use them a lot but you make a lot more cards than I do!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your MACM!! I also am glad you shared informaiton on the A&E's. I'd never considered buying them...now I just migh!!
As always, you are such an inspiration!!
Thanks!
I think I'm addicted to your blog; always look forward to see it, especially on mondays...... You've EXCELLENT ideas for unique handmade gifts!! I luv it all....... THANKS
Hi Kristina!
I love all your cards. You make me look forward to Mondays. Your inspiration is infectious!
Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Again, INCREDIBLE card! You are famous in my eyes, for sure! By the way...not that I could teach you anything new....but here's a little Dimensional trick. If you just stick your thumbnail in the middle of it to make an indentation, then you can easily pop it off. Hope that helps! :) But...you are AMAZING and I SO APPRECIATE the time you take doing your blog/videos/cards, everything. You're fabulous!
My first MACM I am unable to view. :(
It reads that the video is no longer available. Using iBook G4 and Firefox ?
love the card
after leving my first comment; video work fine :D
Great job - love your videos
Another awesome card. Thanks so much. I have learned so much from watching your videos. You're very creative!
Great card! Thanks for a peek at the A&E kits. They're not something I had paid any attention to before. My 4yo daughter and I look forward to watching your MACMs together. She loves them as much as I do!
Gorgeous! You always inspire me!
great video, as always; thanks for the inspiration.
Diggin' the card! Thanks!
Love the card! How exactly did you do the button stitching??
I am MACM FAN too! I look forward to Mondays too.
Love your style and your Blog. Thanks for sharing.
Wow - another beautiful card. I really like the A&E for making a fast card. I like that I could use the items in my scrapbook too.
Just curious -- It is Sale A Bration over at SU --- which set would you choose if you could only choose one? I am going to a SU party on Monday, and can only afford to spend $50 right now, so will only be able to get one and am having a hard time deciding!
Kristina, can't wait for the next video card lesson. Thanks for sharing your lovely talent. God Bless I watch you everyday.
What lovely cards! Very inspiring!
Lovely, lovely card! Love the colors and layout... thank you for sharing your amazing creativity with all of us!
LOVE Hopes and Fears by Keane, LOVE Damien Rice, LOVE your cards!! Can you move to Seattle and be my new Best Friend?
Oh and now I have to buy me some A&E's!
Keep the good stuff coming, please.
Love it! You do really lovely work! My friends and I love to watch these Monday videos! Makes Mondays a BIT more bearable!
A question though...do you actually use your cards or do you save them? It must be hard to give them away! LOL

Hey Kristina, just lil ol me down here in Australia. Have to say I find your whole election/political thing sooooo strange! It's all soooooooooo different down here where it's compulsary to vote. They check off your name when you go in, then you get give a couple of sheets of paper, one of which is about 4 feet long... yada yada... anyways, nobody ever asks out loud which political party you want to vote for! Your name isn't registered on the pieces of paper, just that you did your duty and turned up to vote. So that means it's technically an anonymous vote and you can't get in trouble if you don't fill it out properly.
Anyways, that's just a different perspective on how a different country has to vote! I sure wouldn't be voting over there if it meant feeling ridiculed, oh boyo! Anyways, the whole political thing is a bit crazy all over the world ;)
Ciao Kristina,
I love your blog and videos!
A question for you: can I know the precise name of the ruler that you used in this video?
Thank you,
