February 28, 2026 at 9:40 amOh. my. word. where to start, I guess at the beginning . . with your stripped up background, but not a typical stripped up background, No indeedy (is that a word) You took the Laura Bassen trademark stripped up background to a higher level by using the new Retro Daisy stencil to make an impression on your stripped background, which made for the perfect background for the new little Basket Bunny to strut her stuff, she looked sassy & like she was on a mission strutting down the street. Thanks for not only sharing your adorable card but for filming your creativity at work process, ADORABLE card Laura, as per always watching your video was time well spent, you save me googling things, I learn from you both cardmaking tips, tricks & ideas but also other important information and you entertain me all at the same time.

Patty A Eifert
March 1, 2026 at 3:37 pmI absolutely love your commentary on your videos no matter what you’re making!! Always love when your strip up a card and that embossing just gave it a little something something! I too try to slam my dies onto my work surface and most of the times it works. But when you talked about using your pick to get a thin sentiment out and it gets all out of shape I almost lost it because it is so true. I have experienced that many a time and sometimes they even tear! Anyway…your little stripped bunny card is adorable and the video piece where your class all sang the dimension is life phrase was a hoot!
