Hi from New Hampshire Anna. I'm watching the replay today. We were celebrating our 53rd Wedding Anniverssary yesterday. Keep up the good work..... Love your videos.

[@marjbr9572]

You’re an excellent teacher

[@ptlboodeb1]

Thank you for the tool tips. I love your talks at the end.

[@Lizaxoxo3]

Great video , and of course great chat of life , amen keep spreading life my friend

[@peggyharwell3674]

Greetings from Tennessee. Your video us spot on Anna, great tips for using the tools, and creating a beautiful card. It sounds like the book would be very helpful for everyone to read and gain a new prospective on living life to the fullest as God has set forth for us all. Blessings to you.

[@roseschatz3052]

Read that book many, many years ago. My pastor also preaches those things. Personal experience, and the Bible confirms, that often the understanding comes after the action, not before. I highly endorse the book as well. Marriage changer for sure. Keep being faithful Anna.

[@janicelutz5536]

I haven’t been heat embossing for awhile, thanks for reminding me. Nice card Anna.

[@wandakuzyk]

My husband and I are both also on our second marriages. It’s been 26 years that we have been together and there have been a few bumps in the road but we weathered the storm and lived to talk about it. Cute card. I must agree the trimmer and acrylic blocks make a huge difference. I have had my stampin up blocks and a few punches for over 20 years. They are still my go to’s. I bought 1 thin acrylic block and I think it went into the garbage. Thanks for sharing!❤

[@tracyevans8838]

Hello Anna Beautiful cards, thank you for your tips 😊❤😊

[@katrinaassoumou1531]

Thank you so much for these items and I will be purchasing some of them. Amen

[@Intotheblue95]

Beautiful card. I totally agree with everything you said. 😊

[@bethjackson8727]

New tip for me was to use acetate with my punches to make stencils. Simple idea but very useful.

[@joansensing8504]

Very pretty card!

[@lauramoore4064]

Lovely card. Will have to check out that book.

[@susanhammond9916]

Hi Anna,Watching replay from Theodore Alabama.Love your techniques video. Happy 4th of July.

[@katyjudy4943]

Thank you for making us aware of how our tools can be used and the information we need when purchasing supplies.

[@debolson2720]

Good tips---beautiful card ! The chat on life is good too. I find myself dealing with things that make me want to follow the attitudes of the world but God reminds me how he would have me to respond. Our reward is not here on earth but when we get to heaven we will be rewarded for following His ways. It's not about me it's all about Him.

[@marilynprice8132]

Where can I buy that punch. I love this card❤
