Vicky, your cards are beautiful as always, but I love how you used the wax seals on your cards and not just on the envelops — even using the seal on an envelope as the focal point of the card! How clever you are, you never run out of ideas! TFS.
Oh it’s a great idea to use dye cut leaves which will stay forever fresh. Am new to commenting on blogs so pardon if it doesn’t show up. Hope you have an amazing day =)
Great tutorial on using the wax stamps. Also love that little envelope card!
I love all of these and especially the imperfect wax seals. That is the vision I had for them and I love the look of them on the cards! Thanks for high-lighting them! The cards are beautiful and of course up to your great standards!
I used to use sealing wax many years ago and I’m excited to see it coming back!
Love the hugs card sealed with love. Those sprigs have so much dimension.
The new wax seals look like fun. Thanks for the tutorial. Beautiful cards!
I used wax seals years ago, what’s old is new goes for everything I guess
Hi Vicki! Love your work! Such great ideas for the ssax seals. Brings back memories from when I was young. My mom used wax seals on her Christmas cards when I was young. And no, I won’t say how long ago that was! ?
Thank you so much for the tutorial about how to use the wax seals. I hadn’t thought about using them on the actual card. I love the effect. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful cards!
So glad the wax seals are back….I loved them years ago and love what you did now!
OH my wax seal in action — projects are fabulous using the wax seal— nice work viewed here TFS
Your cards are beautiful! The seals add such a nice touch.
I love that you used the wax in the cards instead of just on the envelope so creative.
These look like so much fun!
I love that you use new and past products to create such lovely cards!
That’s a great idea — put the wax on the inside so it doesn’t fall off the back of the card in the mail. And thanks for the video — always helpful
Such lovely cards Vicky! I’ve been interested in wax seals for awhile, & Altenew comes up with a way to make them which is great.
Your cards are always so wonderful and pretty. I like how you used the sealing wax on the cards. I’m going to have to try it now. I use to put wax seals on my envelopes but that was 50 years ago!
Beautiful cards! I love how you incorporated the wax seal onto the front of the card.
Fantastic ideas for this wax! Makes me want to order!
Thanks Vicky, always enjoy your videos!
Gorgeous cards! I still have some of the wax from years ago when you would seal your envelopes.
Thanks so much for sharing…
Wow, what’s old is new again. I used to use waxed seals with my initials and flowers on them when I was in junior high school in 1967. My friends and I would write and send each other letters with waxed seals on the outside back of the envelope.
Oh how well you instruct on the wax sealing process. Those are just a few of my favorites in the set. I can’t wait for my stamps to arrive.. Beautiful cards Vicky, Have a great week.
Interesting use of a wax seal.
Beautiful cards! Thanks so much for the tutorial on making the wax seals! I have been fascinated with wax seals ever since I was a kid watching them used by the aristocracy in movies. So excited that Altenew has provided us with the means to make our own.
What a great idea to use the wax seals on the cards themselves, thanks for the inspiration 🙂
