I just began coloring, and the Spectrum Noir marker videos have been wonderful. I would never leave a negative comment and can't understand why someone would waste their own time doing so. Please keep sharing your talents with us!! I love to stamp, use my Cricuts, use my Spellbinders, etc. BethAnn M.BethAnn Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09463897713783124095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545508832846267166.post-40900949835865886222013-03-22T06:42:36.602+00:002013-03-22T06:42:36.602+00:00Crikey.

Your card-making magic website was the first one I found and has been such a help to this newbie. Many thanks. As for the green card I love the colour! Such a pity it won't have a recipient at the end. I love the die you used - have added it to my wanted list.

Just imagine the stamp companies if we all started to learn to draw they would all be out of buisness. Oh my that would go down well and none of us would get half the cards made if we had to draw them as well :O)You have a great week and don't let someone with nothing better to do upset you. Guess she is just not a crafter. mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07235697335276353922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545508832846267166.post-41741965290821222022013-03-21T15:44:27.141+00:002013-03-21T15:44:27.141+00:00Lovely cards Christina and, lets face you (like th...Lovely cards Christina and, lets face you (like the rest of us) are human and therefore can make the occasional mistake - I know I do... frequently!! That's part and parcel of crafting, sometimes a 'mistake' can turn out to be a wonderful thing, other times it's not but we learn by our mistakes, and lets face it all it takes is for a slight distraction from what you're busy with and it can all go pear-shaped - ha ha! I'm sure you'll sort it out and, if the only solution is the bin then so be it - the next one will be perfect!<br /><br />As for people leaving negative comments - they're sad and to my mind just trying to get a reaction from you. Constructive criticism is acceptable (if from someone who knows what they're talking about!) but not sheer negativity, that's just plain nasty! My son is a fabulous artist/illustrator but he doesn't get this talent from me - I can draw - but it would take me forever to come up with something I'd feel happy enough to use for crafting/cardmaking etc therefore I use stamps and digital images as the people who produce them are much better at it than me and that's why they produce and sell their artwork to us crafters.<br /><br />Su xSuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073254556390782528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545508832846267166.post-43962882760365755702013-03-21T15:07:20.654+00:002013-03-21T15:07:20.654+00:00Both beautiful cards.

That person was just probably not having a good day and had a severe chip on her shoulder.<br />I love your cards so continue doing what you do best; giving us all great inspiration. You got my support.

I wouldn't criticize your 'wonky' pearls as I know that mine would all be wonky :) Hey ho there are some very sad people around and also many that don't listen - was that person aware that you were using a digi image? You hadn't drawn it? Or was that the point they were trying to make? No I can't draw that is why I use digi and stamp images!

I see what you mean about the Green one. I would do as you suggested, take it apart and use the Die Cut bits. I do like the design of it though. We all do these silly things at some point. <br />Oh! How awful to get a nasty comment, rest assured you certainly do not deserve that. There are some really SAD people out there that are to be pitied that they lead such terrible lives.<br />Chin up and keep on creating all your beautiful creations.<br /><br />Patricia xxx<br /><br />Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08760759649434363723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545508832846267166.post-63557279988056129872013-03-20T16:47:32.698+00:002013-03-20T16:47:32.698+00:00You know what they say Christina "There's...You know what they say Christina "There's nowt so queer as folk!" Very strange indeed. As you say, that is why the artists are doing their work, so we can do ours. I agree, I would never leave a negative comment because if we don't like it they have put a lot of time and effort into their work. Anyway, I love your new dies and the cards are great.

The first one I saw was the spellbinders beginners where you recommended a set of dies and I've been hooked on everything you do ever since.
