I’ll admit, I was saying to myself, “what the heck is she doing?” And then the light bulb went on 💡 and I said, “ohhhh that’s ingenious!” You always give such great tips!
I love this make your own stencil technique! I will be making about 100 Christmas cards for the Dementia facility my mom now lives in. So this technique will help me out a great deal. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I always appreciate you sharing your clever talents. 😊💕
Jennifer thank you VERY much for this video. Perfect timing…I stamp w/my mentally retarted sister & always buy the stencils to make it easier for her. Many stamp don’t offer the stencils & the thought of having to cut them out seemed like a big chore to me. Not anymore. She sells her cards for pocket money since she can no longer work @ McD’s. (She crushed her pelvis in a fall @ home & then had cancer surgery & 20 rounds of chemo. She’s also almost 70.) Thank You so very much for breaking this down so easily I truly appreciate it.

You've got some serious "McGyver Skills"! What a brilliant technique!!! There's no way I would have come up with an idea like this! TFS!!! This is GREAT!
This is one of the coolest techniques I've seen lately! I love the look of coloring but do not want to spend the time. This is the perfect hack! Thanks, Jennifer!
This video was SO helpful. I have stamps that I like but don't use because the images are time-consuming to color. Jennifer gives the perfect solution! Thank you for showing us this hack!
Thank you Jennifer for your colouring hack video. It helps a lot when you are short on time when you have a little bit of help with time-management. Your cards looked great!!! TFS. 🇨🇦
Jennifer, this technique is a REAL TIME SAVER for mass producing cards. Thank You so much for sharing your creativity and your engineer brain !!!! Rest and recuperate from your surgery.
This could nearly be headlined "make your own layered stencils" - so worth the effort, I agree 100%! The only issue I have is I don't have time to follow through right now, LOL!
You’re so clever, Jennifer!! I’ve seen you do this in the past, but forgot about it. Great reminder, especially with holiday card making coming up & as color layering stencils are so popular right now!
Genius! You rock! Prayers for a quick recovery from your surgery! I didn’t go through the same surgery, but they had to cut into the part to put a rod through my Humerus bone, that I broke! Had to go through the same recovery and physical therapy! I did awesome and so will you!💞💞💞💞🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Oh boy! I had just decided not to get Tim Holtz stamptember release. Then I saw this video. You are such an enabler!🤣 I love the idea to make my own stencils. Thank you for all your inspiration.
I love this Jennifer!!! I dont mind fussy cutting. I am taking a four hour drive, which I could get them prepared with fussy cutting. Yeah, you are making my drive more torrible. Thanks. I am going to stamp enough, fussy cut and get ready to stencil when I get to the coast . Hugs to you!
Thank you so much. I would never have thought of creating my own stencils. I love to color but this gives me a quicker option for repetitive production. :)
When I saw your cards on Tim Holtz live yesterday, I remember thinking that the coloring must have taken an age given how great it looked. I pictured you slaving away with markers. What a genius hack. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Believe it or not, I was thinking of asking on the fb page if Jennifer has bulk produce card videos using cute kind of images - i mean this sort of images and not flowery - and here this is! I can hardly believe my luck. Second time watching the video 😂 and enjoying it so much. Than you Jennifer ❤
… Incredible!… I always learn something new, every single time I watch your videos!… I wish I had known this technique before I painstakingly made all my Christmas cards… LAST WEEK! I should’ve waited 😂 Thank you, Jennifer. It’s always such a joyful learning experience with you
I love your videos. You have an amazing and creative mind. I can see why engineering didn’t make you happy, but it does help you come up with awesome ways of doing things. Btw, I pray for you often.
These are some Fantastic cards and tags Jennifer. I just love them ❣️ And Thank you for sharing this great hack for quick coloring. 👍💋 Sending you healing hugs.
What a fabulous video. I learned so much. I thought to myself as soon as I get done watching this video I'm going to make those masks. Well, I was getting the cart ahead of the horse since I just ordered the set. Oh my gosh. Too much excitement in being able to order the stamps and dies. It was Christmas before Christmas. Also, I looked for an e-mail address for you but couldn't find one. I just wanted to say that on the video at 24:50 the postage dies are not the Modern Postage dies. I didn't want anyone to order the incorrect dies. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you Jennifer 😊 love this idea and hope to stretch the use of some older stamps that didn’t have stencils as I too am not the best at colouring. Hope you are recovering well from surgery
Thank you for sharing I tried this for some birthday invitations I was doing and it was so simple and such a time sharing idea! I hate fussy cutting but this is not the same and so very simple. Appreciate you sharing a great idea
This is the idea that I have been waiting for to help me with my problem of also not being the best at coloring in or using ink and staying within the lines! I have tried my best to stay with the lines and no matter what, I always end up messing up with going outside the lines! This is the perfect solution!!! Thank you so much!!!
I used to teach stamping with Close to My Heart a LONG time ago - - - i had used this technique on a thanksgiving set that I had.... when I saw you start this video, I just started to laugh - totally forgot about doing that.... FANTASTIC!!!!
I love how’s these turned out. And SO FUN to make coloring masks the way you did. I love coloring stencils because I can get more use of my inks to color the images. This is just a fantastic idea! Thank you so much for this!!

clever and they came out great. that one layer santa with the gray background is to die for
That little bit of 11:49 brown really gives it lots of dimension
I love this hack, Jennifer. I've done this with mass production on several of my projects. I always enjoy your videos and techniques! 🥰
I’m amazed you could do that fussy cutting with your shoulder! Brilliant idea! Hope you are recovering well!

So clever! It’s kind of like making your own layering stencils. The cards are adorable.
Genius! I love coloring with markers, but since I send out 100 cards, I am always scrambling to get them done. This will help immensely. Thank you!
Loved all your makes on Tim’s Stamptember Live!! Couldn’t wait to see your hack you are my first stop after the Live!!
Jennifer, this technique is a REAL TIME SAVER for mass producing cards. Thank You so much for sharing your creativity and your engineer brain !!!! Rest and recuperate from your surgery.
I really like your coloring hack but I love the background with the images on the Santa card.
Oh. My. Gosh! This "simple" masking tip is going to save me sooooo much time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Cool tricks, it's like a custom made mask/stencil for your stamps! Thanks for sharing. 🙏

I love this technique! Sometimes I like coloring but it’s too labor intensive when doing multiple cards. Thanks for sharing!
Genius! You rock! Prayers for a quick recovery from your surgery! I didn’t go through the same surgery, but they had to cut into the part to put a rod through my Humerus bone, that I broke! Had to go through the same recovery and physical therapy! I did awesome and so will you!💞💞💞💞🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Oh my goodness!!! Everyone…. Meet Jennifer Einstein! Incredible!!!
This is such a great idea. My problem with red is that it tends to bleed. You solved that problem. I cant wait to try this
This is brilliant. I also am not great at coloring and I don't have patience to take coloring classes.
That is SO smart! I hope you are feeling better as each post-surgery day goes by! Hugs!

This is soooooo great. I'm so intimidated by coloring... this hack will make me look like I can color! Thanks.
Great video, Jennifer 😊. So basically you've created layering stencils out of paper. Makes sense to me!
Super cool idea! I love this idea as I have a lot of Santa’s to color. What a time saver … thank you Jennifer !!!
