[@LindaM-w8r]

I love watching your videos. You move right along and get the job done without a lot of unnecessary chit chat. Congratulations and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

[@shellycarter155]

I love to use the background die plates with a mid to heavyweight acetate. I poke everything out and now I have a stencil! So much fun and expands the use of my dies! It’s the typical quick wipe down and I store the template with the die.

[@MargaretSchedel]

I've been using the new packaging !

[@lannberg]

LOL Of course my husband walked in right when the penguin mask went on. He was confused to say the least. I just shrugged and said "crafts."

The awkward die cutting was hysterical! All the techniques were great! The penguins are the best! Great Job!

[@jajmav]

I like your humor Simon! Thanks for sharing your talent. You are a great teacher! I learned some new tips and techniques! I especially like your tip about cutting your cardstock down and putting it in a divided bin! ❤

[@jajmav]

Oh! And I think the penguin dies are adorable!!

[@Msjudibeefl]

I loved all three of your cards that you made but more than that, I appreciate your expertise and willingness to share your creations with us all of these years! I believe I have only known you for the last three or four years, but I know you're contributions are important for our card makers in this industry. Well done, Simon Hurley! 🎉😊

[@bethgintx]

I’ve always love the awkward die cutting but you have taken it to a totally new level and I am here for it. The penguins are absolutely adorable and I love how you thought thru making them different and being able to use them all year round. Great job.

[@katmajic]

I also enjoy the faces you give us for ADC (awkward die cutting)

[@KathleenG-w1z]

Those little penguins are beyond cute! And thank you so much for all the great tips, very helpful.

[@LoriA2024]

You are a joy to watch and you will always be in style!

[@theresamueller7112]

Hello! I find your videos to be the most straight forward instructions. I dislike when the demonstrater spends their time saying hello to everyone under the sun! I’ve been card crafting maybe 4 years. You do a perfect presentation!! Ps loved the hat!

[@aliciaenderle195]

This is such a fun collection. Love the penguins and the tip for using the cover plate as an embossing solution is fabulous!

[@lynnmandeville1163]

[@sandrasuploads6202]

The blue snowflake with the red glittery greeting is my favorite!

[@queenofscrapbooks]

OMG! I loved this video I was cracking up with the tributes to the penguins! I needed that to wake up this morning! Super Cute card Simon! Well done! 🐧❤🐧

[@conniewilson123]

Simon. Too cute! For me, the fact that Spellbinders dies come separated and are smooth is of the utmost importance. I’m so happy that you have chosen to go with them to produce your dies. I’m off to buy some penguin dies!

[@brucewanda9564]

You are a hoot...love it! Makes watching so much greater. Thank you for being soooo human.

[@elenamatusiak4117]

Love the penguin mask/costumes… really made me laugh 😂

[@raehenderson]

Loved the unexpected delight of the penguin mask and hat LOL. So glad I have that adorable penguin dies! I'll be using them soon! ❤

[@DonnaDepner]

I like the way 2 different colors die cut at once. Cool.

[@davinachittenden2865]

Simon you organize your cardstock exactly like I do! It truly helps me to not waste so much cardstock.

[@annaromero6312]

LOL you were to funny on this video. The awkward die cutting always makes me laugh but today you out did yourself. These dies are wonderful but my favorite are the penguins. You have such a creative talent. 🥰💕

[@junestengel18]

LOVE your penguins! They will probably work well with last year's Tim Holtz penguins. That Astro paste will definitely be coming to my home! Great shine! 🐧🐧🐧🥰

[@carolkohl5298]

Oh my goodness. This was so informative and funny. This is one of your best videos. Thanks for sharing and the laughs. You definitely have my attention and never boring. I absolutely love the penguin head gear! I watched this a couple of times. Thank you for being who you really are. We all could use some laughter in our daily lives.

[@marianhillier4847]

Just purchased the Playful Penquins from my local crafting store. So excited to play. They are so cute.

[@lindasimas4834]

Love love love the sequins. Thanks for showing just how to put them together. Hugs

[@sandrasuploads6202]

[@andreasdesigns]

I am new to the craft so I enjoy and learn from your old videos as well as your new ones. Keep making your videos for the veterans and for the newbies coming in every day.

[@jeannewagner8133]

Ooooh Simon, I love this release! Those penguins are really adorable! They are so versatile too! I'm always looking to see if a product can be used in more than one season or event. Your products deliver! And those snowflakes were genius! I do love Spellbinders product too, and I think it's awesome they have teamed up with you! Thank you for the amazing demos! Don't you worry about that shiny and new thing... it's great and all but longevity is better, and you got the goods. ;) Oh yes... the awkward die cutting. HILARIOUS!!!

[@corinarazo1404]

Cuteness, 💯. Thank you for sharing what you do to all of us here on KZbin. All the card makes are great and the tips are helpful. Cheers to more!

[@avrawilliams8675]

I’m ready to set up your hack for A2 sized colored cardstock! I’ve been thinking about it but seeing it in action for die cutting sold me! And I love these penguins and snowflakes-they’re going on my wishlist! Thanks, Simon!

[@melaniesibson5862]

Wow! Kudos Simon! I am so impressed that you keep going. You are one my favs. Very creative. I enjoy all your ideas, tricks, hacks. The crafty world is “shinier” 😝 because of your creativity. 💜😀

[@MelissaRoseberry-e8j]

This is the first video of yours that I have watched. I want to take my scrapbooking to the next level. Your video gave me some product knowledge and I feel confident to try. I’m going to get down with the Astro paste. 😊

[@jen.u.inelyMade]

That mask... HYSTERICAL..and I love that hat! Silly is great! Ty for the giggles!

[@wendeepease9001]

Simon you are so fun to watch and I love your ideas and tips!

[@reet_creates]

Thank you so much for all of the great tips. Those penguins are so adorable! I love, love, love the glittery snowflake background. Totally gives aurora borealis vibes. ❄️ 💫

[@kittymauger7041]

The penguin dies are so cute, but I burst out laughing at the mask! A fun video with great ideas!

[@maconfino9825]

You rocked the penguin masks! I enjoy your videos and all of the helpful tips! Those penguins are so cute!😊

[@kimfrazier3717]

Penguins and snowflakes! Two of my favorite things! Love these Simon! And you crack me up with your awkward die cutting. I want that hat!! ❤🐧❄️

[@jukes243]

Those penguins! Love their little feet. Tiny pieces drive me mad though. I just don't have the patience. But, I enjoyed watching YOU put them together. Too cute. Thanks! Simon

[@lisam6730]

I'm watching right now on my TV. I'm up to the snowflake coverplate, but logging in on my phone to comment. @simon.hurley - I'm really impressed with & appreciate your thoughtful design and attention to detail! The way you designed the penguin dies to reduce the teeny individual detail pieces, the multiple ways the coverplate can be used . . . *chef kiss!* You did a great job! And I enjoy the energy drink & penguin mask/hat, too. 😂💗

[@TheLakingc]

Second watch. Thanks for being so real! I am trying to get my son with Down Syndrome interested in die cutting and cards. He loves to "write stories" with a few words and lots of stickers. He is very creative. I wish he would switch to die cutting, but... maybe that is how he is doing the independence thing, I don't know 😂 He really enjoyed watching the video and got a kick out of the penguins. I can hardly wait to order.

[@michelle224]

The penguins were soooo cute. love all the tips you give. 🐧😀

[@katnjun1]

Wow, great tips! I just found you (and so glad I did!) as I finally have time in my life to immerse myself in this cardmaking hobby. I really enjoyed the way you presented everything. At first I didn't think I'd watch the whole 40 minute video, but you definitely kept me engaged -thanks!

[@bettyfenwick6337]

Such adorable penquins! Great tutorial!

[@shannonfox617]

That penguin hat is the absolute best!

[@Sylvia.Torres]

You will always be shiny! ✨ Thank you Simon! I love all your videos and products. ❤

[@lauraingersoll981]

[@donnamarieharrison1125]

I love the penguins! And you gave some cute ideas for using them!

[@kareneaton433]

Love the snowflake plate and large snowflake die. I make larger cards so I like cover plates that don't have borders. Hat is great

[@Peggy2316]

Simon, those penguins are so adorable and so are you in that penguin mask/hat!! I love how you can dress them up!! 🐧🐧🐧

[@beckymcgoun1912]
