OMG, Jill, are you kidding? Your videos could never be boring or too long! You have provided me with so much inspiration throughout the years. I usually don’t buy anything but Penny Black stamps anymore these days, and watching how you mix whimsical and lovely is so inspiring. I have started to do more of the mixing floral die cuts with critters and I love the way they bring the card to life. Thanks for allowing us to see your creative process. I am so much enjoying this series. ❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks for such kind words, Kimberly!

[@vivianmorgan7071]

Thank you for slowing down and giving details about how you create. It’s really helpful to know.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Vivian!

[@andrewnoden9117]

Hello, this is Andrea... many thanks for sharing. Your videos are never too long. Always thrilled to see your creations and get inspired. Thanks again. God Bless.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Andrea!

[@karrielasater]

I like them all but the blue hugs just really stands out to me! So adoreable. Thank you for sharing your process. It is really helpful!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Karrie! That's one of my favorites, too!

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Awesome suggestions to make ones card making experience flow smoothly; beautiful cards created!🎉❤🙏🏾💜✨

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you, Gwen!

[@gaylerobinson6224]

These are so darn CUTE!!! I like them all but my favorite has to be the one with the four heggies running across the card! The group just cracks me up and I smile each time I see them! I like how you put critters in the letter "U" of the word "HUG". So, so sweet! I see how it makes things easier when you have "bits and bobs" of things all ready to go. What fun to pick among all those items that are already finished. You can pick and choose making different arrangements until you're happy with the look. I love your style/designs! This has been a GREAT series. TFS!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you so, so much!

[@oma1657]

Thank you, I love your ideas for making cards. To have all your things ready when you need to put a card together is so great. Thank you for sharing the way to do things.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much!

[@mez9574]

I really appreciate your videos showing the whole process. Very inspirational. Thank you Jill.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks!

[@larettaosterkamp2229]

I love seeing the process. It gives me ideas on what to do. They are all so beautiful!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, LaRetta!

[@RickAdkins]

Absolutely love this series and the avoid crafty fatigue videos. It’s been so helpful

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you so much- so glad to hear that!

[@kandrews6356]

Jill... another interesting and informative video. I like seeing the process and not just reading or hearing it; I enjoy it more and also grasp the creative 'lesson' easier. I really like all the critters and the florals, and Penny Black's quotes, verses, and words are so inspiration and nice. Thank you for sharing.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you!

[@JM-nl2cd]

Absolutely adorable - each and every card. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you!

[@barbaramcgirl2825]

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Harriett!

[@elisebb3765]

This was one of my favorite videos of yours showing the process! I've learned so many techniques from you and gotten a lot of wonderful inspiration! Thank you, Jill! My favorite critter stamp is the one with the 2 little mice and the big flower. They are so adorable, but not in real life!!! LOL! My favorite cards are the HUG cards! So adorable! Thanks for sharing this series, Jill!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Elise! And yes, I love the mice on stamps only! Heehee! :)

[@iartistdotme]

Your cards all come with a smile! I love your work and this series so much.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks for such kind words!

[@9critterchris877]

Jill, you are such an amazing inspiration! I love your ideas and your beautiful watercolors! Thank you so much !

[@aufan7134]

I love them all, but especially the HUGS with hedgehog popping out.❤❤❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks! That's one of my faves, too. :)

[@sibylleherbe8260]

What a wonderful video! Thank you for sharing the whole process. I really enjoyed watching all the cards come together from start to finish. They are all so cute that I don’t have a favorite. I love them all!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Sibylle!

[@sandranorth0009]

Hi Jill, I think that your cards are little works of art and would look lovely put in frames on the wall. I hope their recipients think to do this. I loved your 'blue hugs' too and the little mice under the flower, so cute! 🎉😊

[@PennyBlackInc]

How kind- thank you, Sandra!

[@sharonjones4509]

Thank you so much for this, I have loved seeing the whole process. I get myself into a real mess. So it was really good to see how easy, how much fun you have made it. Xx

[@PennyBlackInc]

Awh! Thank you, Sharon!

[@carrieclark4561]

I enjoy your process videos. Making design decisions is the hardest and most time consuming part of card making for me so it is helpful to watch your videos. Love all the cards today! Thank you.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Carrie!

[@antoinettelempicki9775]

All the cards are very whimsical and display a soothing color palette. My favs are the blue hugs and red boots!. Partial to boot rain boot stamps and dies.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Antoinette!

[@dorothymurberger306]

I like them all but my favorite it the big hug with the hedge 'hog. A must have set.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Dorothy! That's one of my favs, too! :)

[@lesleysimpson8801]

All of them, Jill is so talented xx

[@julieweber2155]

I love them all, but the hug hedgehogs are adorable. Thanks for using critters. I struggle to incorporate them and this video helped so much. I love your longer videos also. Thanks for sharing.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Julie!

[@jerryclark7872]

Love the cards, Jill. Thanks for sharing.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Jerry!

[@KathySparkle1]

“I don’t wanna drag out all the things…”. BOOM. You voiced my thoughts every time I walk by the craft room, thereby stifling a creative urge or the deadline of making a graduate, baby, or birthday card. So I just keep walking by and don’t attend family gatherings because The Card-Maker Didn’t Make Any Cards! Jill, you’re quite the therapist that will help get me off the depression couch! Thank you! Ok, back to Part 2!

[@PennyBlackInc]

You got this! Just one step at a time makes it so much easier for me. :)

[@ruthwerbecki7823]

I really enjoy watching your videos, your tips and ideas as well which are great. The cards are all terrific. Thank You.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank YOU, Ruth!

[@donnaricardo2109]

I found it very interesting watching your process of planning and creating the cards 😊

[@suefitzsimmons9751]

It'll be a shame when no10 is done.Ive really enjoyed watching all of them.Thank you Jill.

[@cindyanderson863]

Excellent video! All of your cards are adorable! Love the process. Thank you for sharing!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much for watching and for your encouraging words, Cindy!

[@ednam7]

HUGS with the Heggie are my favorites but they're all cute.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Edna! That's one of my faves, too! :)

[@michelleharris4014]

I love the long videos showing your thought process from beginning to the completion of each card. So much information that I can give a try. My favorites were the watering can and the blue hug cards.

[@trudievick2359]

Love the blue Hug. Hard to chose....love them all. Thanks for sharing.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks,Trudie!

[@louisamochizuki9432]

I love all your examples. I know this video is over a year old, but want to say that the big Hug with the hedgehog with the flower is my favorite card 🥰❤️

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Louisa!!

[@familywise-wj7nh]

I’m not gonna lie, when you cut off the hedgehogs butt I literally gasped out loud. But the finished card is stunning and has me looking at all my critter stamps with new eyes 👀. So thank you! And your video is not boring.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much!!

[@raelenepittman1387]

I LOVE watching the process. The video is not too long. I am new to watercoloring and any information is helpful.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Raelene!

[@chrisbraun9782]

Another great video with lots of inspiration! All the cards are beautiful but I love the blue hugs one most of all.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks! That's one of my faves, too! :)

[@annihilator45]

I love both of the hugs 🩷🩷🩷🩵🩵🩵😊

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Kathleen! I love that big HUG! :)

[@wendybachelier9749]

I love your approach to making cards. I was getting to the point where making cards was so frustrating. You have given me a whole new non stressful way to begin the process! I bet I have made 50 cards since following your videos. AND I have used things in my stash that I really love but didn't know what to do with them. I am loving all your videos and I find your explanations to be easy to follow. You are extremely talented. Thanks for sharing your ideas and skills with all of us!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Wendy, your note just made my day! Thank you SO much!!

[@christineray165]

Love this collection of cards and I am slowly going through your demonstrations, i am so pleased I found you, you are so inspirational ❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Appreciate your kind words, Christine! :)

[@jancastle77]

My favorite is the blue HUGS card! Although I must say, each one grabs my attention!!!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you, Jan!

[@lindaruschmeyer5298]

So hard to choose a favorite. All are adorable. TFFS

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you, Linda!

[@pegboydscrafty]

So beautiful and you make everything look effortless and great. Really adorable stamps and dies as well❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank YOU!

[@dianafleury4629]

Love all these cards. Right my style

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you, Diana!

[@lucindasell5153]

Adorable cards and love the power of your simple, clean designs. Thanks for sharing! I’ve enjoyed this series!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you, Lucinda!

[@ellenweber4904]

I like the purple hug the best. I get stumped when everything is monochromatic, but you brought in a few flowers and leaves and the purple just pops! I love watching the decision process of creating one item at a time. I too have a stash of mostly white die cuts on hand. My favorite videos are watching you paint. I learn so much about shading, and different techniques that encourage me to pull out my paints and cards and just get lost in them. Tfs.

[@barbaralassiter259]

No way! A video from P B & J that is too long! Lol! Thanks this was so informative and so awesome. Love them all but if I have to choose favorites....the big HUGS! 🥰

[@PennyBlackInc]

Heehee, thanks, Barb!

[@skunnavatana9407]

You have so many great ideas. I have loved your videos. Please keep them coming !

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much!

[@jeetylala5064]

Jill, your I am so captivated by your amazing work, it's the first time I've come across you and Wow. I love water colors and adore Penny Black stamps thank you so much for sharing and I don't think your post could ever be too long. Jeliena from Tasmania ❤❤❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Awh! Thank you so much for your kind words, Jeliena!

[@debrasalon1]

Love love love your cards and creativity. Thank you for teaching us.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much!

[@sandycooper3188]

I love them all. I’ve had hedgehogs for years and sadly on February 7th my sweet little girl passed away. Seeing all your adorable hedgie cards is bittersweet. They make me smile. Thank you. Take care ❤️🦔

[@PennyBlackInc]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Sandy. Hugs!

[@anniegotakindlee]

I love seeing your videos and using your ideas and you are so encouraging. I love Penny Black. I have a lot!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks for your encouragement, too, Dianne!

[@bonnieklass5697]

Fantastic, Jill! Thanks for sharing all these tips! I'll be watching this over and over.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Bonnie!

[@AnnaWeaver-ps2fm]

The Hug card (blue one) is my favorite-- so cute!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Anna!

[@karenbeecham826]

I love this video. I’ve been looking for something like this, to help me come up with my own designs instead of copying others exactly. Thank you 😊

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Karen!

[@user-rd5hp7xf1c]

I love watching you play with the pieces. So creative!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Betsy!

[@marzs1214]

Love your planning process. Such cute cards. The more I learn from others, the more I grow as a card maker. Thank you❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you!

[@susielessard4304]

Your video’s communicate a warm and comfortable style of sharing ideas and processes that encourage, teach, and benefit every crafter. My favorites? I loved the simple cards as I enjoy gifting a set of cards tied with ribbon. And who doesn’t need a hug? How can you resist the Hedgie sweetly nested in that die-cut? It brings a smile immediately. Can you imagine randomly handing out several of these cards when you’re out doing errands? A smile and a hug, we can all use one. Thanks so much, Jill.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Awh! I love that idea, Susie! Passing out hugs while doing errands is brilliant!

[@dchrisweberful]

I particularly enjoyed watching the details of your process in preparing and developing the layouts, doing it progressively to keep it from being overwhelming. It has helped me tremendously and inspired me to use my watercolors as well!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Fabulous! Thanks, Chris!

[@anniegotakindlee]

The hedge hug is my favorite!

[@melissakidwell7978]

I love your work and I adore Penny Black stamps

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Melissa!

[@joannecolombo3656]

OMG. Truly beautiful 🤩 cards. Love them all.

[@annknight3169]

Love the whimsical mugs .

[@wendyharbarger1445]

Adorable!!! I love them all!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you so much, Wendy!

[@Kateseyes]

Hi Jill, I absolutely love your videos. Especially how you lay things out ahead of time . I love how organized you are. I am going to try this, I think that it will help me 😀❤ looking forward to more videos… and I never think that your videos are too long. 😅

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much for such kind words, Kate! :)

[@kerrymcconnell9905]

All of your cards are fantastic! I am definitely drawn to the blue hugs card with the hedgehog. So adorable!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Kerry! That's one of my faves, too! :)

[@carolrietzke6295]

The blue hug card is my favorite. I love this series seeing your process. I am so glad you showed some. Of your painting in real time as well. Great inspiration. I’ll need to try your getting ready process as I usually make one or two cards at a time and feel like die cutting lengthens my time to make a card too much. The old rubber stamps are the best!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Carol!

[@carolhinojosa908]

I love all of them. You are so talented.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Carol!

[@sandyvillanueva4679]

So cute! I never tire of watching your videos. ☺I've gone back to re-watch already. Beautiful.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Sandy!

[@sherikem7760]

Thanks so much for this video series. It really helps us stress less and be more spontaneous and creative. I'd love to see more videos like this! I've watched all the videos in this series .

[@PennyBlackInc]

Awh! Thanks so much for your kind words and support, Sheri!

[@maggiehughes4283]

Good ideas. Thank you.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Maggie!

[@TPTCC27]

LOVE this! Great ideas, loved seeing the process!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Kim!

[@janellestallkamp9240]

I’m a fan of the Hedgies and love listening to your voice and great ideas. Makes sense your process and makes me want to dig out all my Hedgies and create similar ideas. Thank you!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Hedgie time! :) Thanks, Janelle!

[@normabears1927]

Loved seeing beginning to end. All your cards are adorable. Your series have been so helpful to me. Thank you!

[@PennyBlackInc]

So glad to hear that- thanks, Norma!

[@joannecolombo3656]

❤❤❤. They are all beautiful.

[@kimcreate1]

They ate all fabulous. Thanks for the ideas.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thank you!

[@laurelsummers4716]

Your videos are wonderful! If time is limited, I can always watch in two or three short segments. Seeing the whole process is SO interesting and makes me wonder why I haven't done this before. Maybe I have - sort of - on a much smaller scale, thinking of how to use a stamp 3 different ways for cards. But this intentional production and assemblage in stages, on the scale you've demonstrated here is brilliant. Thank you SO much. I craft with a friend once a week and it is usually in her art room so I need 'portable projects'. This is perfect and I appreciate the (enormous) time and effort you have taken to film, edit and post this. I, too, love PB critters, and am delighted to be using them with this process!!!

[@PennyBlackInc]

What kind and thoughtful words, Laurel! Thank you!

[@SueD.]

Love all of these! Thanks for sharing your creative process.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Sue!

[@Annemuziek]

It is hard to pick a favorite. They are all beautiful. How nice it would be to receive a set like that!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much!

[@dianao1428]

Hello Jill, just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I enjoyed your presentation today. It inspired and encouraged me and it was not too long...! Thank you for sharing. I subscribed! Blessings... Diana O.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much for your kind words, Diana, and thanks for subscribing! Happy stamping!

[@lynn8487]

Very interesting and helpful to see your process, thank you. Now need to see what I can do with what I already have (and resist the urge to shop for what you just used!)

[@PennyBlackInc]

Happy stamping, Lynn! :)

[@tanabeverly1306]

Love your videos and the inspiration. These are amazing. Thanks for sharing.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Tana!

[@ernataylor-stark4593]

Ooh, dear! Favourite???????? very difficult, but I love the watering can and the big hug.{ the green one because of the colour) But, I love them all.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Erna!

[@cathylaycock5598]

I enjoyed watching your thought process and how you organize the pieces for each card! My favourite is the hugging mice, but they all turned out gorgeous! I’m not good with using wood stamps. I really like using my stamp positioners. ❤️😊🇨🇦

[@shirla1976]

I love watching the process you do in card making. It has inspired me to do the same. The videos are never too long.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much, Shirl!

[@suerhodes7830]

Love seeing your videos. LOVE seeing the whole process❤..Great ideas, bulk stamping and die cutting..loved this ..feeling Very inspired😊

[@PennyBlackInc]

So glad you're inspired! Thanks, Sue!

[@audreyfluent7439]

Absolutely, I agree with you on the two favorites! Especially the blue Hugs. But they’re all just adorable! And you do inspire us with all the detail and creative process. It’s actually a fresh simplified way to just enjoy creating. Thank you! Your joy always comes through!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so very much, Audrey!

[@dianafleury4629]

Love this idea.

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Diana!

[@shelleyhenry4846]

There is no such thing as a too long video from you. The sometimes all you need is a hug card is probably my favorite but they are all adorable. Thank you so much 😊

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Shelley!

[@kathybutcher7794]

I love your process and your tutorials and cards!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Kathy!

[@reneecassidy7279]

That was so much fun to watch! I think I love the blue Hugs the best, but they are all wonderful. I see some sentiments I need to have!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Renee! Gotta love the sentiments! :)

[@inspireyourlearning]

I really felt this video was not long enough, I could literally watch another marathon of your work with these stamps. So sad to know we’re almost over with this series. Love your work !❤

[@PennyBlackInc]

Awh! Thank you!

[@bethjackson8727]

Something I haven’t done before is to make so many dies then stamp and then paint. I thought I was organized but this takes planning final card one step easier. Mix and match. I guess tomorrow I’ll be cutting wagons, eggs and more flowers. Maybe a couple of hedges too. Maybe I’ll have one pulling a wagon. I really feel badly that you only have one more video. These steps have been enlightening. Way to go!

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks, Beth! Happy stamping and die cutting! :)

[@Kazzandshazz]

Hi Jill, I do really enjoy watching your entire process, my favourite card well ….. all of them

[@PennyBlackInc]

Thanks so much!
