Sunday! My favorite day of the week where I get to post my video and read all your lovely comments! Whooo hooo!
I have tons of new exclusice SimonSaysStamp products in the house, including dies and stamp sets. So will see me using them a lot in the future. And here is the card I made for you today:
and here is a closer look
I just love that tree die! It has so much potential. You can add hearts or little bows for cute cards, leaves for fall/spring cards, ornaments for Christmas cards, lollipops for birthday cards… I could go on for ever!! Actually every tiny stamp you have could be used to “dress” your tree.
I usually get comments saying that I make cardmaking look so easy, or how fast I work etc. Well you have to know that video editing is my BFF and I am just a messy cardmaker just like everybody else. So today I didn’t delete what happened in the end!
Watch and laugh! ha!!!!
You can enjoy the video below or at my YouTube channel in HD.

I am making an effort to post mid-week videos. I made it last week and I have another ready for this coming week… so yes, bonus videos will pop up more often.
Hope you had fun watching the video and got inspired. Happy Sunday everyone!
Had fun watching your video!
That card is beautiful!
Such a sweet scene!
TFS!! Looking forward to your mid-week video! 😉
Another great video Vicky!! I have that stamp set and matching die on my Christmas wish list for my family 😉 I laugh at the end of your video… wow! It’s nice to know I am not alone in the world making my cards upside down LOL!! A big hug to you!! Joan
I laughed so hard at the end. I do that all the time myself, and now I feel better about it!
YAY! You are human! 😉 Fun too see that mistake, I’ve had that before! Anyway, love the card. These sets are awesome, would love to play with it too. So, add it to my wishlist. Especially that tree die is fun!
I laughed out loud and my husband asked what was so funny! I do that sort of thing all the time! I wish 3M made a removable adhesive! LOL!!!
What a cute card…love the stamps and die sets! Always enjoy your Sunday morning videos over a cup of coffee! Have a wonderful day!
I really enjoy your videos- thanks so much for continuing to share them with us! And -yup-I have done that-more times than I care to admit! My cricut spatula is perfect for lifting the paper off of the card base! Thanks again- Diane
GORGEOUS card!
And yes it happens to me many times too..I leave the stamp front on the card…….cut it off and mount it on another card..I use different glue so I am not able to tare it off the card!
LOVE the tree and house!
I enjoy Sundays too and your videos with the bouncy music are lovely starts of the day.
Love your cute gingham house Vicky, such fun to see you make mistakes too, I have done this often!!
you make me smile-loved the card colors. Thanks for the continued inspirations that you give us.
Love your videos! I came to your blog from YouTube to get the name of that Authentique pad.. I just love the colors! Thanks for sharing 🙂 Can’t wait to see more with the dies.

You’re so sweet to show us “all of it,” Vicky! Fun video! Love this darling card! That gingham house is adorable and love your heart-filled tree! 🙂
Hi Vicky,
I loved your card, especially the matching stamps and dies-what possibilities lay ahead!-
It reassured me, that you are also “only human” when you glued the card upside down. Everything always looked so easy and faultless in your videos so far. Thanks for sharing that with us!! I always enjoy your cards, they are an inspiration and give me many ideas as well as new techniques. Thank you for all the time you invest in your crafting and share it with us.
Have a nice week and I look forward to your mid-week card.
Best regards from Germany, Gisa
Love this card and your videos are always wonderful – even with a mistake! You had good luck peeling back the adhesive – I probably would have cut the front off and mounted it on another card! All of us have done exactly the same thing! The stamp set & dies are fabulous! Thanks so much!
This card is created with such love and heartfelt thoughts (and yes, even the mistakes we card makers make all too often…)! Love your video and how you make the stamp set/die set shine! A treat to see as always, Vicky!
hahaha!! That was fun!! I love it when you have new goodies in the house. More fun for your blog readers! You are right, that tree has lots of possibilities for all seasons. Lovely card today!
Sweet card Vicky! Love the stamps in this set!
Love you sweet a-peel-ing card! I’m in the un-a-peel-ing group! I never have any luck peeling the front of the card off without destroying it. I’m a cut the card and remounting the whole front of the card. Thanks for sharing your story with us–we all do it!
Hi Vicky ~ Another absolutely darling card! Thank you so much for always making my Sunday a little “Brighter”!!! Looking forward to your next video, as always!
Adorable card. I love that tree too. Wish I had it! You’ve inspired me to go make a card. Love the BOnus videos!! Thanks….. .as always.
Vicky,
Such an aordable card! I wrote to you on youtube, as well, but I wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your cards and videos! I’ve been having a youtube video marathon watching all of your videos the last few days and I think I’ve finally seen them all now, lol!
Thanks for sharing. I have learned so many things and I can’t wait to try some new techniques!
Merilee
seen them all?! wow! listening to the same music over and over again?! LOL!! Thank you Merilee! you made my day 🙂
I have also seen them all!! And some more than once! What I LOVE about your videos is the fact that you don’t do audio. Sometimes I need to watch with the speakers off and with your videos I can! The sub-titles make sure I don’t miss anything.
Another lovely card. Glad you left your little blooper in, sometimes I think I’m the only one that does that kind of stuff. Glad to know even the “experts” do it. Thanks!
Great card and I just love the colors… it will be great for a Springtime project. I got a kick out of your video because I can’t count the number of times I have done the same thing. It is to the point that I keep checking the orientation before I place the layer on it, and even after I’ve checked I’ll check one more time. After all I believe there is a gremlin in my craft room that hides my scissors, adhesive, acrylic blocks and sponges and turns my folded card around! haha!
ha ha ha yes that same gremlin is visiting me too !!!
Oh! Vicky..thanks for sharing, I do that often..lol..such a cute card, I just loved the video..
Luv CHRISSYxx
Hi Vicky, Love your video’s and look forward to each one!
Just wondering what it was you used to pick up the little hearts before you stuck them down? I need a little tool that does that cos I have big clumsy fingers lol!
Thanks, Lee x
Hi Lee, sorry I forgot to list it in my supplies. It is called QuickStik and here is a link where you can get it http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/servlet/the-48157/Lifestyle-Crafts-QUICKSTIK-Precision/Detail
Love the card! You mean this happens to other people, too!
Always love seeing your videos no matter when you make them! So inspiring. Thanks for sharing and not leaving the oopsy. ; )
Vicky
I laughed my head off when I saw how you finished the card..I’ve done that before to but I just cut it off and re mount on another card stock.. I can never get it off the way you did.
loved the fun card..all your cards are fun
pat
I can also not get it off. I use the Green & White glue for all my adhesive work and the good thing about that is that it sticks. GOOD.
Thank you so much for showing us you make mistakes too! I do that all the time. Your tutorials look so easy. Thank you for sharing your great ideas. LOVE your blog!
HAHA… totally laughed when i saw ur fingers tapping on the mat. you must be thinking “oh shit…” hahaha.. Great card there!
Very enjoyable video and not only because of the “oops” moment. I always enjoy your video’s.
Eveline.
Yay it’s not just me doing things like that. Love this card. I especially love the tree die. It’s on my wish list. The hearts just finished it off too. Thanks for all your videos. Love watching
really cute card, thanks for the video
Gorgeous! So fun. I love the heart leaves 🙂
Vicky, I never miss your cards and video shares. This is another great one! Question that I hope you’ll have time to answer: I have a cricut, but just don’t use it a lot. I’m doing more cardmaking & less scrapbooking these days & have been thinking a die cut machine would be great. I keep going back and forth on which one: Cuttlebug, Big Shot/Kick, or something else? Cuttlebug, which I see that you use, just seems like the one I want….I love the idea of it’s portability vs. the others that look big/heavy. Any thoughts? Thanks for weighing in on this if you have time…
Hi Penny!
now that is a difficult question for me to answer. You see I own a Silhouette and a Cuttlebug but not a BigShot so I can’t really compare. Truth is I love my Cuttlebug because it does the job, is portable, easy to store and well… it’s cute! ha!
But I would love to have a BigShot Sizzix just to be able to cut larger and wider pieces. I might invest in one actually.
thanks so much for your input! I’ll be putting one of those are my Christmas “wish list”, or maybe my b-day, which will be coming up…..so thank you for your thoughts!
Adorable card. Love to see that I’m not alone in making that same mistake!! So glad that most times it’s fixable! Not always though… Super cute card and video, thanks for sharing!
Beutiful work as always!!! But where do I buy the tool that You used in the card home is where the heart is. And the adhesive paper that used when You colores this card? Thank you
