  3. Thank you for continuing the theme of “10 Cards”! When the video comes out, I make a cup of coffee and sit back to enjoy. I admire your attention to detail, even when simplicity is the hallmark of the card. It’s clear to me that you are a teacher because of the way you explain what you are doing…I have learned so much from you. Again, thanks!

  5. I usually in a state of open mouth and bulging eyes, wondering how you are able to create these beautifully delish cards. I’m in absolute awe. Your videos inspiree a bit more everyday to make a card (not quite brave enough) and when you do these monthly kits, inspiration is taken to a whole new level. Your creative juices are so yummy! TFS!

  7. I wish I could come up with the great ideas that you have. You are so creative! I think about all the things you make just by drawing them out. Like the suitcase you made for your journal and all the details you put into every project. Love it! I miss listening to you talk when you only have music playing. Enjoy them so much more when I can hear you explain things.

  49. I just love watching you make the 10 cards each month. I also get the Simon says stamp kit and if I am perfectly honest….I sometimes get a bit overwhelmed with all of the lovely choices provided. Your videos help to center me and focus my attention so that I have a better understanding of how to use some of the items provided. Thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous creations with us. You have such a calming affect and a lovely talent. Now…off to create my own cards and try not to duplicate to tooooo closely what you have made. Much adoration!
