Good morning!
Here's another Make a Card Monday video. This week it's pretty long again, although there's no conversation with Jen in the middle this time. But I do talk a bit about another giveaway, so hopefully it's worth watching all the way through. :)
Anyway, enjoy! The video below is in HD. To watch it in normal quality, click here.

Very Cute Card. I like it when you show new punches/gagets & stamps, of course, on your MACM. Be well.
What a gorgeous card! that robot is too cute.
Love this card, what a cute stamp!
Too cute. Thanks for Monday mornings.
Best part of my Monday is watching MACM with a good cup of coffee! Very cute card and easy to make with your help.
So cute card =) I can't wait for the giveaway, as I would love, love, LOVE to have Stampin' Up!s scalloped edge punch =)As i live in Norway, there is no way for me to purchase it, so being given one is my only opportunity to get it =( I wish so bad that Stampin' Up! would start up here in Norway too. I would have been such a loyal customer, if not a demonstrator too =)
Cute card! I wanted to mention something I noticed about commenting. I had tried to comment one day and as you mentioned in your video I put in the wrong jumbled letters. When it came back, the comment I had typed was gone which would have meant I would have had to type it again. Is there a way you can set it up that the comment remains in the box and we just put in the letters again? I hope that makes sense. lol
Forgot to say one thing:
To avoid clearstamps stamping uneven, like what happened to the first robot you stamped, you can use a foambase under the paper you're stamping on. Check out my video on "The secret weapon" (the foam base) to see more on this, where to get it etc.

Thanks for another great video ( I love MACM and Finally Friday )
Oh my gosh! I totally love this. It's so adorable, and a nice departure from your standard Valentine's Day Cards. Too cute!
This card is adorable! I can't wait to be able to watch it from home. Love the little popped hearts.
Got to have that speech bubble stamp. You always make it look so easy.

Hey Kristina! Another great card from you! Simply love those stamps and colours! :D Thanks for the vids!
Complete relaxing 11 minutes of video. I don't mind if you make a long video. I always time my midafternoon cup of coffee with watching your video. Then I'm ready to start cooking.
What a cute looking card. That robot is adorable.
Eveline.
Really love to watch your videos. Great ideas and art.
Thanks
Awww that card is sooo sweet! You really make the best cards, never seen anything like it before.

I have a thing for robots, so I instantly fell in love with this card!
I still marvel about all the work you put into your videos and projects on your blog. Great job, so glad you keep it up!
This card is so cute...and I have never seen the blender pen technique and really like the look...I would love to win those tools! Great give-away idea...
This is such an A*D*O*R*A*B*L*E card!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
Love this robot! Excellent card for the men in our lives!
This card is so cute! You are the best!
Very cute robot card!!
Simply adorable. I really like a lot of the robot stuff out there...but sometime it looks a little boyish...way to girl it up Kristina :)
Once again you have showed us something fun, fresh and fabulous!
I always enjoy your videos. Thank you!
Love the robot. What a great way to show an alternate use for a stamp that seems so boy/child. Thanks for all your videos! They're a great inspiration for me.
I LOVE that robot stamp. He is so cute. I am very interested in trying out a blender pen, but am a little concerned because I am not much of an artist. Also, do you use the classic or craft Stampin' Up stamp pads? I want to get a set eventually, but am wondering which type to buy.
Great video and card! We love robots. My 5-year old is obsessed with anything robot-related. I just ordered these cute robot stamps this weekend:

Thank you for the great videos week after week! This card would be perfect for my nephew.
Have a great week!
I love this video today! It's so LIVE!!! I've done that before where I stamped the image and didn't work out and I would say...Oh! Shoot! Your videos are so real and we get to see how you solve them!
The Robot stamp is Awesome! Love it!
Hey!....on that twitter comment on who hit your car. Was it really bad? That is really, really rude. I guess that person who hit your car decided not to make honesty and not being rude a New Year Resolution! My goodness, I hope it was at least a minor hit that it wont cost you a lot!! Please keep us posted! Poor little James. (isn't that what you name him? your Mazda right?)....lol! See I do remember a lot! Im such a fan of your blog! (giggles)
Are U really serious about Paris having a Scrapbooking line? Geeesh! Why not huh? If Martha Stewart is doing it, why not her! Betcha' that her stuff is going to be way lot hotter than her stuff! Yeah! Way Hot!!
Take Care! And Happy Monday to ya!
Yaneri ;)
this little robot is so cute. thanks for the tutorial.
I love how you always make a simple card look so dang cute! I also loved how you anchored the robot with the Grey. Also, thanks for giving so many of us something to look forward to.
I don't know if you collect Awards but if you want to pop over I have one on my Blog for you!

Great card! thank you for posting and sharing your talent! hope your car's damage is not too bad - it's happened to me a few times and it's the pits.
Love your card - thanks for sharing!
Loved the card! So cute. Wouldn't you know that is not the fisker's border punch that I have really like it. I love the touches the border punches give a card. I watch your video's every Monday! Enjoy all that you do and thanksfor allthe helpful hints!!
Hi!
I just wanted to thank you for all your videos! I am new to card making and your videos have been a real inspiration and a great teaching tool for me. Thanks again and keep them coming. Oh! and I'm on my way to buy that Robot stamp...too darn cute!!! :)
I love your blog.
Thank you for the inspiration
Love the robot...I've been looking for a non-girlie idea for my son's valentines. I think I'll write "You are out of this world!" for the message inside. Thanks for the inspiration!
Hi Kristina!
I love all of you videos. You are so creative and make simple cards look fantastic. Your MACM videos provide me with great inspiration.
You are fantastic!
WOW great card each time i watch a video the cards get better and BETTER :)
It's always a pleasure to have you as a teacher.
My cards are usually too frilly for a guy.
This is a great masculine card for giving a boy. Thanks for sharing your talent with us in a video. :)
Note: on the person having trouble with comment posting. I had that trouble before and my daughter told me to always right click after highlighting all of your comment and click on copy. Then if it happens you can always paste it back on.
I love this card! I also wanted to thank you for your tutorial a while back on the silhouette. I just got one, and I use a mac, so it was really helpful! I would love to see another tutorial with you using the silhouette! Thank you so much again!
I truly enjoyed you video. Can't til next Monday.
Love the card.
I wish I could make cards like you. just come up with them. I can copy card, but to just come up with one dont happen.
I love this robot card. You inspire me to go and work on my projects.
So cute! How do you come up with these great cards! Keep them coming because we Love them!
You don't have to tell this girl twice! I got my glue dots in my StazOn the first time you mentioned it. I love when you offer little tips like that. It was such a quick thing to do, but ultimately eliminates a big hassle every time I use my Stazon! Cute card!
You're an amazing card maker. My son (8 years old) watched your video and were in awe of your colouring. The blender pen is amazing. And the robot is so cute. I love coming to your website.

Here's hoping I can post this time!!!....Love your MACM's ...thanks!!
HOLA ME ENCANTA TU CREATIVIDAD......TUS DISEÑOS SON UNA INSPIRACION PARA MI...(DISCULPA POR NO ESCRIBIRLO EN INGLES)
My goodness, I LOVE that little robot!
So cute!
Your coloured in images are always done wonderful!
I seriously love that robot. Seriously. I would marry him if he were a real guy. :)
Love your videos, they're the best....and the cards: always beautiful and creative.
This is just adorable. Your video rocked!
Cute! I like the way you shaded at the bottom. It's amazing how something so simple makes a huge difference.
Hey Kristina..
I became a fan of your through a friend of mine who was crazy about your MACM videos over on YouTube. Weren't we happy to find your blog as well. I've given you and award over on my blog, cause let's face it, Your Blog is the Coolest blog around!
Have a great day and thanks for inspiring all of us!
this card is super cute love that robot
Hugs

This card brings a smile to my face its just so cute!
Hey Kristina,
Love the card! I've been shopping around for a cute robot like that.
I have a tip for you to avoid the problem you were having with the clear stamps. Because unmounted stamps have no built in cushion, you need to use a "stamp mat". Any foam sheet will work. You can even use a mouse pad! Just place it under the paper you are stamping on. It should come out perfect every time!
I have begun a card swap club at my church, because I have been so inspired by you! Thanks!
This is super cute! I love Bampop products! They have some really cute stuff! TFS!
I love your cards! I am always excited to watch your videos! Thanks for sharing all of your terrific ideas!
LOVE this card! When you use those border punches you can punch them perfectly if you start in the middle, then do your sides. The edges will then turn out perfectly.
sooo cute, i love it!
Thank you SO much for sharing your time and talents with us! I enjoy your tutorials and look forward to them every week:)
Warmest Regards,
Dee Gilcrease
