Darn Jennifer, is there anything you can't take and make better, easier, faster? I love when the engineer in you comes out. None of these are hard, but they're so striking and effective. My style is usually the chunkier the better. But those are great for personally giving to someone rather than mailing. For mailing or giving as a gift set to someone your style is sooooo much better and way more practical. Thanks for encouraging me to go outside my comfort zone. And... WAY-TO-GO MAMA!
My friends and I think you are the most creative stamper alive. So creative even when you think you're not. I have gotten a multitude of valuable tips from your videos. Thank you so much Jennifer. You inspire and teach us all. Have also cost us a bit of money because we JUST HAVE TO HAVE the things you have demonstrated. 😁 💖💙💜
I do use what I have, but some of the things are just too irresistable! And yes, forgot to mention that you are the Technique Queen! And I love your little tips on how to do something that looks complicated, but you show us how easy it is to a accomplish. Invaluable! 💖
You've done it again Jennifer! You must eat, sleep, and dream crafting to come up with all of these wonderful videos you make for us. I am very grateful you are so generous and share your skills, without charge. You are a pro and you have helped me develop my hobby that keeps me engaged and always learning during my retirement years. Crafting is my therapy and it allows me to affordably gift others in a way that no retail purchase can. Card making and sewing are my passions and they bring joy to my life. Thank you forever and always.
Love all you very detailed techniques & love the cards you have made. I hope I can get close to duplicating some of them. Thanks for sharing & giving such great instructions.
Like everyone else who has commented, I love your videos and techniques. How do you wrap your cards when mailing when they have dimensionals, like the pearls, on them? Bubble wrap, foam, etc.?
I don't know how I took so long to discover your videos, but I'm addicted!!! Your videos are always so clear & concise, and your projects turn out beautiful! I love all the various techniques you share, too! Thank you so much!
You are so inspirational and I always learn so many tricks and tips. Thank you Jennifer! You are amazing. I can't wait to try this idea. Much appreciated!
Love your set of cards. Defineately a theme, but each are individually stunning. Mojo comes and go. Inspiration can come from the most simplest things. Time in dappled sun is my go to place. It soothes the soul. Cheers Lisa
Amazing! Each technique is just amazing! Thanks for the time you put into each tutorial Jennifer! So much information given and easy to follow! God bless!!!
I just had to comment again. You have the most incredible talent, not only card making but as a truly nice human. Your talent in slump at your worst is me on my very best day 😊. How you are so humble is beyond me, you Jennifer have such a strength you have no idea, have faith in yourself you are such a good teacher, person and example to the young. Love overload over!! 💕😘💕 Cin xx
@@jennifermcguireink no need to edit it out on my account. I actually appreciate the length of your videos. Its like having a crafting class with up front seating and a truly amazing instructor. Not only are you very creative but you are a wonderful teacher. You explain things so well, so patiently. You are my morning coffee buddy.
Really fun. I love to see all of the bright colours. Here in Maine we are rain rain and grey clouds for days. This was cheerful. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for sharing your tips and techniques.
I always learn so much from your videos. You help me to be a better stamper. Thank you. And you are filled with techniques I am not good at, so a added benefit!
Are you able to mail your cards like this with the foam and pearls in a regular envelope or do you have to use a padded mailer? Could you just put a heave piece of cardstock on top of the front of the card inside the envelope to minimize the bumps from pearls? It has gotten so expensive to send a padded mailing envelope. Beautiful cards! Thanks for the inspiration.
When I first bought Versamark many years ago, it was for its watermark abilities, not embossing. To get a good watermark, you needed to try to stamp in a slightly darker ink than the paper -- then came Versamark. Stamping on colored paper will give that subtle watermark for a fantastic background. Embossing with it was a perk! I had an embossing pad before that.I really loved how you used white on white before inking for such amazing looks! I'm with you: cutting up would be easier for me, except for the last one with the stripe masking. I must try these. Thanks, as always, for beauty and inspiration!
Thank you so much for sharing. I am glad to know that I am no the only one who changes my mind constantly!! Many times I start out with one idea in mind and part way thru come up with a new idea.
You have fixed a wonky problem I've had. Moving the cut pieces apart without the additional cutting is something I'd never seen before, except on another one of your videos. Thank you
Love the bright colors... can I ask about your enamel pins? My daughter in love collects them also... I am bedbound so don’t get a chance to run across them out and about to find fun pins for her... do you have any place on line that you love their pins? Thanks for sharing your talents and gifts...love your videos, also you have a smooth, pleasant, relaxing voice that makes watching very enjoyable beyond learning about what beautiful creation you are making!
I wake up every morning to see if you have a new video ( no pressure) lol You Address of the normal not really talented, crafter and I appreciate that so much your voice is very calming I’ve told you this before and I truly get up every morning and look for you to have a video so thank you for when you find the time in your busy life to do them
Do you have a video about the blender brushes? Do I have to buy one for each color, can they be clean or wipe clean? Your videos are wonderful and I want to try making them but most of the time I don't have the items you used. So I have to order them. Thanks for all your ideas an tips they help me a lot, Gari
i haven't done a video specifically about them - i try not to do product-specific videos often. you can clean them - wash or wipe clean! i just keep one for each color family :)
Thanks for the beautiful inspiration! I love Lara Bassen’s style after seeing it in an interview you did with her. As a quilter I’ve always been drawn to bright clear colors and I find my card making tends to go in that same direction. Thank you for the time you put in on these videos, I like seeing so many examples of each technique. Have a blessed day!
Great video as always! Love all the inspiration. A little off topic, but where did you get that band for your watch? Is it an Apple Watch? I’ve been looking for a new band and love that one!
I really loved this video. I have been in a slump for a while and your slump gave me some great ideas to play with. By the way, I have been using the foam for my dimensional look ever since you first introduced it. I save my scraps of foam and cut them to fit another project. Thank you for all of your wonderful ideas!
I can relate... 🤪. I’ve been in a slump for a while as well. Luckily, I only teach classes when I want to. I’ve learned that recycling old ideas with a current twist sometimes works. But, with all the new releases each month, I can see how difficult it can be when you’re in demand! I don’t have a solution, but you need to give yourself permission to just “create what you love”. Your followers will love you nonetheless - I do! 💕💕💕
Wow, these are so stunning and bright! I have to ask you this, though. The only MISTIs I've ever seen, including mine, have pink ruler stickers on the edges. You have a blue one, though. Did it come that way or did you replace yours with blue? I've seen other shades of pink on RUclips as well, but mine is a bright, almost neon pink.
Wow, these are awesome. I saved this to my how to playlist for reference. I love how your engineer's brain comes up with so many creative ideas! Thank you for sharing this:) Now, of to SSS to buy some stamps!
Why trim pieces? Wouldn't it be easier and have less scraps to store if you figure out how much space you want and cut the size paper then stamp and seperate? Much less trimming this way. If nothing else draw it on scrap paper to figure out your spacing.
sometimes when inking, the edges aren't great. so i like to start big and trim it down. also, i like the thing scraps for fun backgrounds on other cards. but you can definitely start at any size you want
Thank you for another amazing video. We all need to take a breather at times! Just to restore our soul!!!!!
I can always count on you to give me awesome ideas! Thanks so much for sharing 😀
WOW!!! Thank you for these helpful techniques, Jennifer! I’ll definitely give these a try. Thank you for the inspiration! Very much appreciated 👍🏽🙌🏽💕
You are so creative. I love all of your videos as you take the time to show and explain everything. Thanks
Love the color blocking techniques. I will try them all. Thanks
Very pretty, love the color blending.
LOVE your artistic ideas ALWAYS!!! 🖍

Like everyone else who has commented, I love your videos and techniques. How do you wrap your cards when mailing when they have dimensionals, like the pearls, on them? Bubble wrap, foam, etc.?
extra postage for thick cards. padded envelopes for bumpy or special cards :)
@@jennifermcguireink Extra postage for sure but I hadn't thought of the padded envelopes... ha. Thx.
You are so clever and generous with sharing your talents. Thank you.

thank you i appreciate this so much. i struggle a lot, so this means A LOT!
I appreciate that you share changing your mind during the creative process. Makes me braver to do the same

Always in awe of you. You inspire me so much.
Absolutely beautiful!
I am always so impressed with your videos. I enjoy watching you work as much as making the cards.
I love your videos. You are so inspiring. You always give me new ideas on what to do. I'm a newbie and all that you teach us is very much appreciated!

Beautiful cards! Thanks for the inspiration.
i like to use padded envelopes, but you can put a piece of clear recycled packaging inside the envelope so it doesn't tear it.
Wow! Great techniques! Thanks!
The blue card is stunning!😊
Trying this tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration. We love you Jennifer Mcguire!
All of these are fantastic. Great ideas for sure.

all crafters are talented in different ways! :)
So pretty. I’ve got to say that the masked are smoother and more visually appealing to me than the cut up pieces. Tfs.
I love doing color blocking on cards. It's a unique look.
These technique are so awesome and thank you for sharing each one of them....you are so creative and I truly enjoy all of your videos.

Oh my, have to say your creative slump is so much better than my creative best. LOL. You are inspiring and I thank you for that.
I was thinking the same thing! I can't wait to try some of these ideas out.
Those altenew ink colors are just glorious. I knew I wanted them , but now I'm completely convinced.
Your videos are truly amazing! Thanks for sharing!

I like the tip for centering the stamp on your card front.
This was you in a slump! my slumps should be so good. Love all the ideas, thanks as always for sharing.

@@jennifermcguireink I had NO idea they sold those! That's awesome! Thank you for the tidbit of info! :)
I love your watch band! I had to replay your video because I missed some card techniques while busy admiring your left wrist :) !
I really enjoyed this video! Great technique on the color blocking. Good job. ; )
Hi Jennifer...Gorgeous cards 🐳🐊🐨🐸🦔
So many techniques--I can't keep up!
What a shame the Good Job Mama stamp set is now discontinued!
It must be especially hard for you when you'rer in a creatine slump, as you can't go watch Jennifer McGuire videos!
Oh yeah , and slump, my butt. We should all be so slumpy!!!
I have been in a huge slump... things have drained me. This was me coming out of it. Creative therapy is helpful to me.
Just absolutely beautiful Jennifer. You are amazing! Bev (4/25/2019)
