/r/papercrafting
Do you spend hours on a scrapbook? Are you a creative card maker? Are you always making ATCs? Then this is the subreddit for you.
Post your latest projects, get help and inspiration and learn about the art of papercrafting.
Some rules:
1) This subreddit is for paper crafting. Primarily, we are aimed at building a community where scrapbookers, card makers and other artistically creative paper users, rather than those who make art out of paper (r/papercraft is more appropriate for that content). We encourage creativity in this subreddit and welcome seeing all different kinds of project.
2) Feel free to post links to your blog or youtube channel but please don't spam it to death. General rule of thumb - is your previous post shown in the last two pages of the 'new' tab? If so, then post it in there. If not, feel free to create a new post.
3) If you encounter any problems in the sub at all please immediately report them to a mod. Members should always be kind and pleasant to other posters. We operate a 'three strikes and you're out' rule to banning from the sub. If you have a problem with another member, please email a mod. Constructive criticism is allowed but must be requested. If it is not requested, please ask if they would like to hear your thoughts first.
We request that readers think and read the whole topic before they downvote anything. Downvoting is discouraged.
4) We have weekly 'rant', 'success' and 'goals' threads running. Please don't post content for these threads outside of this area. If you can't find the thread for that week, it may not have been made yet. Ask a mod.
5) Enjoy!

https://youtu.be/GtkVQ7sVNs8?feature=shared I really enjoy making arts and crafts. And started to share them online. It’s would be really nice if I could hear your thoughts on it. Thank you! ( Has English subs <3 for easy viewing )
When I laminate dark colored card stock it looks horrible. I have tried everything I can think of- Thermal lamination- Cold lamination - thermal lamination pouch- self adhesive lamination sheets, 3mil laminate, 5 mil laminate, running through when laminator is good and hot --and when laminator has just started to heat up. It only happens when I am using dark colored cardstock- Black, Navy Blue, Maroon.
Looks perfect when I use light colored cardstock. I am at the end of my rope - don't know what I have to do to correct this, I love the dark colors.
Composition: Tumbled glass, sea glass, edge quilling over layered paper cut, chalk (sky), acrylic paint, twigs
I know the design behind this card is hot foiled and I'm kind of researching this technique. I wonder if it's worth investing in a hot foil machine. It's soooo pretty and it looks... easy...? Any thoughts? :)
Am thinking of crafting something like that (but with my idol)😂. However, instead of making a paper square, I wanna glue it onto a rubik cube. So my question, what's better and lasts longer:
