I saw a card using this technique on a group that focuses on Stampin’ Up products and being a new demonstrator and also being new to card making I look for anything that will add a “Ta Da” to my cards….I thought when I first saw this I would not be able to do it…..however I printed your template and followed along on your video and I did it!! 🙂 So easy…thanks so very much!
I am a SU Demo from the Niagara Falls Ontario area, and I did a video, that I placed on Stamp Connection, where I praised your Blog, and your Braided Technique card, which I cased today. I gave out your blog address in the video, hoping you didnt mind….smiles…You are an amazing, talented Demo, and I’m so pleased I came across your video on YouTube. If you get a chance, please watch Stamp Connection, to view your card….I dedicated the video to you, my fellow Demo!….smiles
Hi! I love your card and think it’s great. I wanted to give it a try but was unable to download it. The link just took me to a page with a bunch of tiny lines and it wasn’t the right lines.
I love your carte ! She’s so beautiful ! Karine (France)
Thank you so much Karine for your kind comment. Thank you for subscribing and have a day full of Blessings! Brandy
Hi Brandy,
I LOVE this technique and I loved your video. Thanks so much for adding the bloopers at the end. It cracked me up!

PS. I had no trouble with the download.
This is a really neat technique. I can’t wait to try it myself. Thanks for including the template.
Hi Marie,
Awesome! So glad you enjoyed it. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. Hugs, Brandy
I love the braided card and your video was great. I was unable to download the template so I tried to measure off the screen which turned out to be too big for the card. Could you please give me the measurements of the long and short lines and how much space in between the lines. In the meantime I’ll try to figure it out. I found this card on pinterest, and am looking forward to seeing more of your stuff. Thank you. Kerry

thanks
Natalie
Thanks for stopping by Gegi!!! I really appreciate your feedback. I hope you have a wonderful day. Happy Stampin! Brandy
Brandy – I love this card!
I really like your video setup – your sound is clear, the light is good and I appreciate the way you film you with the project details and then flip to the overhead camera for demonstration – nicely done!!
Thank you Brandy for your amazing videos I love them.! when I downloaded and printed the template for the braiding it came out too small, only 2 3/4″ long Any suggestions for me?
Christi, mine was also too short but realized that my computer/printer was doing a “shrink to fit” so have just now printed full size. I’m hoping that will help though haven’t tried it yet.
Carole
Hi Brandy! Love this technique!!! It looks like the picture shows an extra torn layer in between the braided section and the embossed layer. Is that right? I didn’t hear you mention it in the video unless I missed it.
Brandy, you are adorable. Loved the braided card. Thank you for posting.
Oh, and I loved the Bloopers, I needed a good laugh
Hi Janet,

Your very welcome Nancy! Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers, Brandy

Brandy, I love your braided card. I also tried to put the braid on the front of the card. It is so cute .Thanks for all your wonderful videos….
I got the card bug about 3 months ago … T
Thanks again Carol
Love this card and technique! Thanks for sharing it with us on this great video.
Thank you so much for the template. I’ve forgotten twice when I was there to get a copy. You’re a mind reader and a God Send. See you Monday. I’m the “Hostess” this time, and I’m so excited!
That’s RIGHT!!! I am so excited for you to be the hostess. That’s AWESOME Alice!!! Can’t wait to see you Friday. Hugs, Brandy
Love this card. So versatile! Thanks, Brandy, for the videos. Like Mary says, I’m also a visual learner so these videos are great! Carole
I just loved this card concept. Thank you so much for sharing. I printed out our template to share with my card club gals next month. They will love it! Thanks again.
Hi Brandy – Love watching your videos & have gotten some great ideas! Especially love the braided card. Thanks also for the template – gonna make a Mother’s Day card using this – FUN!! Susan
Thank you soooo much for the template for this card! I don’t have the diagonal plate for the scoring board and that was the only way I’ve seen this card made. I loved the bloopers – you probably would have had fewer if the “male” behind the camera hadn’t been laughing at you, LOL. I enjoy your videos and thank you for sharing! I look forward to more videos.
I love watching your videos!!
Thank you Karen! I appreciate your friendship and support. Have a crafty weekend!
Hi Brandy! Love, love your card Rain or Shine. Was there a video posted for this card? I was not able to find it. I’d love to make a card similar to yours. I am a visual person so I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask. I really enjoy all your wonderful ideas!! Thanks. Mary
Hi Mary,
Here it is… I forgot to add it in the post after it uploaded. Oops!!! Sorry friend. Hope you give it a try. Super fun!
Maybe it’s too early in the morning for me, but I don’t see a video tutorial for how to make this very interesting card. Would you guide me to the tutorial? Thanks!
Hi Brandy,
It seems that the link to download the template is not working. Could you please send it to me?
Appreciated!!!!
Gabriela
Love this card! The braid is so different and adds so much to the card; however, I am unable to download the template for the braid. There is no link! I will come back again to hopefully download it another time. Thank you so much!
Hi Brandy
