“Here’s a small clip from my recent YouNow stream where I made two mini birthday cards live. I love sharing the real process — the cutting, layering, and little details that go into each handmade piece.”

“This clip is from a 27‑minute live stream on YouNow — a calm moment making two mini birthday cards.”

A few handmade cards I’ve crafted at home — selected from my box to show the care, detail, and personal style behind my work. These designs reflect the journey I’m shaping in 2026.

Tip 1: The Tacky‑Glue Clean‑Up Trick

____________________

“If you ever get a bit of muck or fluff stuck to your card, dab a tiny amount of tacky glue on your fingertip and gently roll it over the area. It lifts the dirt without damaging the card. I use this all the time when my cutting mat gets a bit messy.”

Tip 2: Fixing a Wrong‑Way Stamp With Layering

____________________

“If I stamp something the wrong way round, I don’t throw the card away. I cut a small piece of thick cardstock, glue it neatly over the mistake, and re‑stamp in the correct direction. It adds a little raised panel on the back, which actually looks decorative and intentional.”
