Love your ideas for using up those 6 X 6 pads that I have way too many of. I love to hear you talk as you go with extra little hints and items you like or don't care for. It helps us to know what are bargains and what are just a "spur of the moment" purchase...not really necessary. Thanks for being an inspiration!!

It has been a while since I checked in with your channel (I have been SUPER busy and haven't been making as many cards) and I used to watch under my personal account. I love the fact that you talk. I can watch you on my TV or like tonight while I am crocheting/knitting. I love learning and seeing new things while working on other things. The fact that you talk through your process has taught me a lot, things I wouldn't have considered as a beginner without you. There are other people who have similar themed content to you but I still send people to you constantly as a wonderful teacher. Knowing the process has been incredibly useful for me and getting into paper crafting. I love your channel and I love watching your whole process! Please keep that the same! I am still learning so much from you!!! Carrie

I always enjoy watching your videos. You inspired me to do cards for Hospitalized kids, and I think I've sent off about 200 to them in the past year and a half. I do post many of those cards on various facebook groups, but I've never thought that it might make me look like I'm bragging that I do charitable things. Instead, I hope that others will be inspired to send their cards off to various groups. So many of us love to make cards but don't know what to do with them.

BECAUSE you're telling us how your brain is thinking, the process, the color arrangement, etc. and it helps me - who can't figure out how to match my clothes... - making better looking cards. I find that our Michaels in town (x2) don't carry much pretty 6x6 pads. I love Scrapbook.com but the Customs are killing me. Looking forward to the next video and I wouldn't mind the stickers either as I think they would match an Amy Tangerine pack that I have. TFS, Nicole
