These cards are sooo special. Too many techniques if you are making a lot of cards, but great for those extra special people in your life. Also a great idea for other themed cards throughout the year. I think I will be referring back to this video in the future. Thanks for all the super tips. Now let me go get my wallet out!

[@cynthiatuczynski9491]

I love these cards and the techniques you shared. Thank you 😊🤗

[@rtd1791]

A few videos ago, I noticed you answered a question about your fingernails. I hope you don’t mind my question being off topic and about your manicure. Ever since you’ve gone back to polished nails, it seems like there is something different than your prepandemic manicures. Like the polish is thicker or more domed. Are you using a different polish? It’s a small thing, but I look forward to seeing your manicure and which right hand ring you will be wearing. 😆

[@jennifermcguireink]

I use nail wraps now. They last longer. 😊 My favorite brand is Vanity Table Ohora.

[@ninameeker4323]

I love these ideas! The text behind the ornaments really adds to the design. Thanks Jennifer

[@paulienvandenbosch3857]

Such beautiful cards. Love the Holly die-cuts behind your beautiful multi layered Holly stenciled panel. So many amazing details in that card. ❤️ it. The ornament card is also very gorgeous. Love the multicolored stenciling and again your details gives so much interest. The silver bows are just the perfect little touch.

[@dizzinese]

Blew my mind on the holly card and I’m positive the ornament one will as well. I do not like red and green for Christmas but this holly card is fantastic! All those extras are fabulous! This is nice for really special ppl in my life, but I couldn’t make 36 like I do every year. But it’s so beautiful!

[@rtd1791]

Amen to this. I’m consistently amazed not only by her techniques but also the brilliant sophistication of her designs. I love that I can instantly pick out her work whether it is from years ago or more recent. I have never once thought one of her cards was over done, like I find with my own. Even these stenciled cards--- even though they have many layered techniques, each technique is relatively simple and in the end becomes a harmonious part of the whole design.

[@jennifermcguireink]

You are so welcome!!!

Thank you Jennifer! I missed this one when I was unwell, so I'm happy to catch up with it today. I love how you're willing to showcase the tiny details that take time but bring these cards to the next level of wow. ❤️👏🏻❤️

Love the fact that your script stamps use upper case letters. So few do.

So pretty 😍

[@barbaralassiter259]

I particularly love the holly on the kraft card stock but both cards are beautiful. I'm finding it is lots of fun to play with stencils and have created several Christmas cards thus far. Even my older non-layering stencils are good to use! Thanks for sharing tips and ideas like these.

[@lynellevanboening9078]

Great cards. I need to get more stencils.

[@janetbuettgenbach1264]

I loved the video. I wonder if you would add the source of the cardstock and stencil holder you were using, as well as the frame the ink pads were held in. Thank you

[@jamakrueger7460]

Great tutorial

[@Babs-Veterans-are-Family]

When your anti static tool runs out refill with cornstarch. I use a cheap fluffy makeup brush and a bowl with lid dip the brush. I also have a powder foundation with the Kabuki brush from the dollar store cleaned out the powder filled with cornstarch. The anti static tools dry out my hands and some smell like baby powder which makes me sneeze

[@jennifermcguireink]

Lots of good options. I am enjoying the new Rabbit Hole Designs powder tool.

[@pamelasertich9850]

I was trying to get a retractible brush from Amazon because it was out of stock, however I couldn't find one that did what I wanted. When I received mine it was just amazing. You pump it and the medium just goes to the middle of the brush. There isn't any big release of powder and it has no scent. It really is a wonderful tool and very well thought out. I hope you will try it.

[@rtd1791]

@@jennifermcguireink Do you specifically like the clay powder better? I read that clay powder was better and cornstarch is “bad” because it is a thickener. I don’t understand why a thickener would be bad in terms of embossing.

[@cindyhenry1410]

You can attach a bulldog clip to the powder bag so you don’t have to touch it....

[@irinan.9881]

Hi jennifer, thanks for sharing the great tech! Will you also tell us what the name of the tool is with which you press the stamps onto the paper? I mean this square with the globular handle. Thank you and greetings from Germany

[@trevanji]

"Dry embossed". I am not used to this phrase. Is it as apposed to heat embossing wherein I guess you could say it was a 'wet or moist' procedure. Always love your work and brilliant video's (?) - no extra speech or fumbling - just pure professionalism :-).

[@jillbarger2593]

Really loved these background techniques! I have a question though...Inks. There are Pigment, Die & Oxide inks. As many know inks can be a major expense in crafting & I've held off buying in any large quantity. To add to the 3 types listed many videos feature different brands to boot. I wonder if there is a clarifying video on which ink should be used in which technique & why, along with the advantage to the different brands, if there is any. If you've already done a video on this, just point me in the right direction...TA 💖

[@jennifermcguireink]

Jennifer is taking a bit of time off so I'll do my best to help... Here is a video that she did that shows lots of information types of inks. www.jennifermcguireink.com/2021/02/my-favorite-crafty-things-2020-inks-tools-giveaway.html If you want a deep dive into oxides vs distress inks search KZbin for Tim Holtz distress oxides vs. distress inks and he goes into the comparison of those. Hope this helps! Jana for Jennifer

[@jillbarger2593]

@@jennifermcguireink Thanks so much! I'll ck it out ;)

[@krisvanallen]

when you stamp and die cut several greetings and use only one, how do you store the unused greetings? I use leftover cellophane envelopes from products that I've ordered, and put the extra die cut greetings down inside the storage envelope with the stamps and die. Seems to keep them flat and safe.

[@jennifermcguireink]

Answering for Jennifer as she is taking some time off -- that sounds like a really good way to do it and I believe Jennifer does it as well. Jana

[@navoff1]

Is there some reason you didn't use the GREETINGS stamp from the Pretty Pink Posh Holiday Scripts stamp set instead of masking off the stamp from the other set?

[@jennifermcguireink]

I just missed it. 😊
