cool! Thanks for the video
I love your no-nonsense approach Erin, you make it seem so easy. Looking forward to trying this…of course, I’ll end up looking like a showgirl when I use glitter…that’s how I roll. 😉 Also, thanks for the tip about the sticky roller and pulling a cut out of a die…I love that!
Love this technique, Erin! I can’t wait to try it!
ERIN, you are genius! I love how you did the sentiment on the half-half die. I always dread lining anything up, but you’ve given me a great way to avoid that. Thanks!!
Nice article! I love it.
Beautiful card! Great tip about the lint roller too :D. TFS!
Erin, this is a great technique video! And I use the leftover foam bits as well … I feel so virtuous when I do! 😛
Could you please tell us what site you recommended to follow? I didn’t understand it.
Thanks for the tips in this video!
Loved the card, too!

great technique Erin, LOVE this idea,, always learn from you. love the music that starts each video, puts me in a happy place.
Oh, neat. I like the glitter look and in this case it resembles rain coming down with the clouds and the umbrella. Thanks for the tips with the sticky roller and the embroidery thread.
Thats really pure!)
The card is great – love the colour scheme, but I especially loved the tip about using the leftover bits of foam tape! I do that too and have always wondered why they make it with so much potential waste!
