I love that cute laminated tree. Great idea to use the laminator! The tiny elf stamp is adorable and I love those silver strips. They add so much to a card. Wow! Faux vellum and laminated paper napkins! What creative ideas!😲

Hi, to make your trees or anything else have a clear glass finish, Linda Bedinger from Ink and Ingenuity (you tube video) explained how she used a wide clear packaging tape. It might work a bit cheaper that lamination sheets. I have bought some to try this out. Your cards are lovely and given me another idea to try this out. She used them to make Christmas hanging balls and they looked good. Thank you for sharing your ideas. I have just subscribed to you channel🙂

🎉✨🎈✨🎉YAY JULIA... well done, and congratulations for reaching over 1000 subscribers❣❣❣ 🎉✨🎈✨🎉 I am so delighted that more and more crafters are finding your channel. 😀 As you make so many Christmas cards for the seniors you are very organised, and it is fun seeing your thought process as you put the cards together. Julia, when you glue the faux vellum with the laminated side down how well does it adhere, and will it eventually lift up because the surface is laminated? Also, if you apply glue to the laminated side do you still see the glue once it dries? Your faux vellum is very versatile as you can use either side, and the more subtle side would have also looked lovely on your third card. I must say my favourite card was the second one you made 'Joy to the World', with the nativity scene. Have a wonderful, and productive day in your craft studio with Cordelia. Blessings, love and hugs from your Aussie friend Gloria❣ 🥰☕🍰💐💖💝💕

Hi Gloria - Such wonderful, thought filled questions! So far, I have not had any Art Glitter Glue showing through once it's dry. The ATG tape runner did show on the laminate to paper side and needs to be covered up. And I haven't had it pull off the piece. I will be checking them again in a couple of weeks. Will update if there is a change to that. At the point of lamination, you have to choose which side of the serviette you want to have the laminate on, unless of course you are doing plain white. If you laminate on top of a designer serviette it really brings out the colors. And the back is obveously "The Backside". That's why on some of them I split them and laminate half on the front and half on the back. Does that make sense? It allows me to choose shiny or textured. But you can't really change your mind on them and just flip them over, it just doesn't look quite right. I love than "Joy to the World" card too!!! Sending you Hopes for a Beautiful Day in your neck of the World! Julia

Hi Ellen - Glad you enjoyed this one. To answer your question - My glue of choice is alway Art Glitter Glue with the fine tip. It works 100% of the time; with just enough drying time to give you a little squiggle room, but not too much. You also can get by with less than you think - I probably use way too much. Hope this helps.

Hi Susan and Welcome to My Channel. I use the laminator for a couple of reasons. First to add clear laminate shine; you could use packing tape for this if you don't have laminator. I also like to use it to stiffen tissue and paper napkins, so you can use like regular paper. The lamination process gives structure to those papers. Hope this helps!

These were just leftover strips and they were varying length. The widths varied also if I recall. If I were doing it with packing tape - mine is 2 inches - I would cut the final tree 1 3/4 inch wide by 3 1/2 inch tall, or close to that. On the 3 I made I did a zig/zag cut and got all 3 trees out of 1 piece. It was about 4 inches tall by 6 inches wide...more or less.

Hi Wendy - I put those small scraps in a laminating pouch together and then cut them apart. I only laminated one side so there would be a good glue surface on the back. To do this I put 2 sheets of copy paper in between layers. My go to guru for laminating is Ann Melvin and she just published a fabulous laminating video today - here is a link - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eMqKi7d7mZq8aJ8.html I show how to do the faux vellum in an earlier video - here is a link - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLN1hsiSqdTGmoE.html
