[@chrisharman4399]

Very informative video, Jennifer. My I want list, will grow some more. Thanks for sharing these videos with us.

[@elfincrafter]

Hope all works out with the family issues. I have always looked for advice on different embossing powder & thought I would mention that the Rangers Platinum is amazing. It is extremely fine & gives good details on sentiments & images. 😊

[@CardsbyMaaike]

oh thank you for the tip of shimmer spritz in my empty wink of stella. I;ve also been using the nuvo shimmer pen for months now and i love it

[@earlinekeepingitreal]

Take care of yourself and your family and thanks for the tutorial Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@cwest496]

As always you create wonderful informative video. I always learn something new along the way to use in my craft room. =) Take some much needed time out for your family and you as well. Merry Christmas Jennifer! Enjoy your holidays. =)

[@bertas-cards]

Loved this video. If you haven’t tried Wow!’s Unicorn Magic glitter embossing powder, you are missing a beautiful treat.

[@sassymouth2056]

These videos are great but the more important thing is to handle whatever is going on with your family. I wish you God's grace in your obstacles. And don't worry, we'll be waiting with baited breath for your return. Merry Christmas!

[@jennifermcguireink]

[@NancyLynn]

A ton of great info Jennifer...thank you!

[@jeannebrinkman8889]

Thank you💕 Your videos are excellent reference 💕

[@DeeDee-yz9ku]

TFS! Have a Great Christmas, enjoy your family.

[@cheekysaver]

Sometimes I take Mom out and we hit craft stores and dollar stores looking for supplies. This weekend we had 55% off coupons at Micheals.... and we found the collage medium. We were so happy to get it for under $6 Canadian. I was not planning on spending $ there... we went to 2 stores and I managed to keep my total under $20.

[@icemark2la]

It may be 2019, but this was extremely helpful! Thanks!

[@potsiefighter]

Thanks for sharing Jennifer! These videos are amazing! ❤ xo Lisa

[@donnaokoniewski3761]

Very informative, as always. Thank you for sharing.

[@loiscarrie8153]

Hi Jennifer.. I just love everything you do and I have learned so much from you. I have a really hard time with the Nuvo drops - they always have a peak on them. any tips? thanks Lois

[@karenverhagen3885]

Thanks Jennifer - great information! I appreciate the time you take to make all of these videos to help us avoid product that don't perform as well as what you have used. Do you have any tips for keeping the Glitter pen (and their clear glaze pen) from not working after one use. I find that if it sits for awhile I can't get them to work again. I store them point down, could that be the problem?

[@jennifermcguireink]

hmmm i store mine point up. not sure....

[@jonieisenberg2794]

I have the Spectrum Noir due to the price point. I have a couple of Wink of Stellas which I bought on sale to try. I love love love the shimmer spritz. I also bought the Nuvo drops, most of the different types, just because they were on sale. I prefer the sequins without the holes. I couldn't wait to get the wobblers for my grandson's cards. Since he couldn't stay on earth with us I just couldn't buy them. I really don't have any kids in my family. I guess that's why I love to see Lila so much. Give her extra Christmas HUGS and tell her I know Santa will be extra good to her because she's so sweet.

[@leenewton5872]

I am so very sorry you lost your grandson. Hang in there and . . . God be with you.

[@jonieisenberg2794]

Lee Newton, Thank you so much. I never knew anything could hurt so much. You are so very kind.

[@creativitybyhelena1580]

Sending you lots of ❤️. I am so sorry for your loss😔

[@jonieisenberg2794]

Helena Nyberg, Thank you so much. It's been very difficult.

[@jo-annepikebrintrup1500]

I can't imagine losing a child or a grandchild. It's the most awful thing in the world. My best friend just lost her son way too early. God bless you, Jonie.

[@Kitchensurprise]

I look forward to all your tutorials. So helpful. What is the difference between Glitter Drops and Glitter Accents? I have both and the Glitter Accents don’t make nice drops. Just wondering if they were made with a different use in mind.

[@norinemueller4588]

Thank you happy holidays

[@MrsSchwarzwaldmaedl]

😵 😵 😵 I assume that I will need to get ALL of those products.. 💜

[@margiepalmeri343]

Jennifer where do you get your containers for your jewels?

[@kathihyde4388]

Thank you very much for your videos. I know they must be a lot of work. I was looking on your website to see if you have a download of the chart for the Nuvo drops? I could not find one or am I just overlooking it?

[@McCoko]

I don't know if you found it but here is a link to it jennifermcguireink.com/2017/07/drops.html

[@yuliyazinkevych5310]

Hello! I love your designs! What supplies would you recommend to buy for a begginer who wants to start making cards? Thank you

[@cardmakingwithcraftconfect9786]

Yay, just love ❤️ these videos

[@elizabethnetzer5633]

Thanks so much, really helpful.

[@susangreen9308]

thank you for all the great information.

[@jeama123]

always enjoy your favourite things videos (as well as all your videos!) I'm curious about something - what do you (and your fellow youtubers) do with all the cards you make? You must have quite a stockpile of them as I'm assuming for each card you video, there is a prototype card as well.

[@jeannetrumbull5561]

Very informative. Thanks so much!

[@sharonolsen6579]

This has been SO incredibly helpful !! Over the past month or so as I have been feverishly making Christmas cards... I have run into some issues with the choices I made for embossing powders.. One that was supposed to be gold glitter, but when heat embossed .. (and yes just barely turned melted) it lost all glitter and was just kind of a baby food yellow.. I was very disappointed.. It was not on your list by the way.. ; > Also , the whole which shimmer pen was best .. and the white pen questions.. which is best.. Your exhaustive research is so very much appreciated !!!! : >

[@w3ndi973]

Thanks Jennifer, very useful. In respect of embossing powders, can I suggest you try Tonic Nuvo powders. Excellent quality and price point and colours match their embellishment drops so look great together. I wish you and your family a peaceful and happy Christmas and health and happiness for 2018

[@jennifermcguireink]

i haven't tried them all. just a few and they were great.

[@misstorina3]

Hello. I apologise for writing here. Is it possible that lucky clover is missing from the distress ink swatces? Thank you!!

[@ruchapande40]

Please make the current crafty favorite series for 2018 please

[@brookeberger2103]

Super video. Hang in there. Family comes first.

[@handmadebykitten2504]

Very useful video! However, I do have a question that may be silly. I noticed that you sprayed that Tsukineko shimmer spray on your crafting mat which I have accidentally did to. I’m just wondering how did you clean it? Somehow I ended up with a black sparkling mat now. 😂I make crafting videos too and it really add some unpleasant glares sometimes. Just wondering.

[@cherylbook885]

One question I have is when you use versa mark ink for embossing, how do you get that off your stamps?

[@wendyodell356]

Hi Jennifer, thanks again for doing all the hard work in putting together the 2017 favorite things videos. I know they are an awful lot of work for you and it DOES NOT go un-noticed. *One thing I did notice when you were comparing the Hero Arts Whie & the Gina K Detail White, I would like to point out. The Hero Arts white is not a true white by looking at your images. It's an off-white, kinda cream, while Gina K definitely looks true white. That would make a huge difference for me, in making a decision as to which to buy or even which use on my project. Could you please just give a close look for us, I'm sure other folks noticed too, and leave a comment back? If that's not an option, then, address it in an upcoming video please? It would be so much appreciated, just like all your wonderful teaching/beautiful card making videos.💟💟💟

[@leenewton5872]

they looked equally white to me?

[@wendyodell356]

Lee Newton Okay, good to know. Thanks.

[@wendyodell356]

Lee Newton Thanks, it must be my eyes or phone. So good to know.😁

[@pummeled]

Wonderful! Can you do a video using scrapbook paper on cards?? I have a ton and I don't know how to use them!

[@jennifermcguireink]

i really don't own them anymore. :(

[@sandystein7972]

Jennifer, do you have the templates for the Nuvo drop products samples?

[@breinaburgin1438]

Can you refill your Wink of Stella with water and Perfect Pearls?

[@mghilbun]

Do you no longer use the katana jewel picker?

[@jo-annepikebrintrup1500]

I absolutely love my jewel picker, thanks to Jennifer!!!!

[@terryeggen1303]

Hi Jennifer, when you get a chance can you help me decide on what Copic markers to buy? I am a beginner but would like to give them a try. The big set is almost 200.00. That's quite an investments for me. They have smaller sets but how small should I go? I appreciate any feedback you can give me as I value your openion. Smiles Terry

[@susan2657]

✂️ I agree with{ for the love of bacon below } you take care of your family merry Christmas ✂️✂️

[@phyllisnufer]

I've had a lot of trouble using WOW's glittered embossing powder. It appears to stick but brushes right off. I use Versamark, then a heat and stick type powder, which I heat, then immediately apply the glittered embossing powder. I just can't get it to stay stuck. Any suggestions? Thanks so much for all of your videos. They are wonderful. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@jennifermcguireink]

they have plain glitters in jars that look just like the glitter embossing powder. are you sure it is an embossin gpowder?

[@phyllisnufer]

It is embossing powder, but I misspoke on the brand. It's Ranger, not WOW.

[@CricketsBay]

Use Versamark and the embossing powder with a heatgun. The sticky embossing powder doesn't go under regular embossing powder. Sticky embossing powder is for sticking foil and stuff to cards.

[@phyllisnufer]

It didn't work with just the Versamark, so I thought I'd try the heat and stick. That didn't work either.

[@lorraineturner2817]

Thank you Jennifer for this informative video tutorial. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us crafters. Merry Christmas to you and your family. :O)

[@online22much]

What is the difference between the Collage Medium Matte and the Matte Medium that you always used to use?

[@jennifermcguireink]

try this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqG3c3aQpNiMjsU

[@online22much]

Thanks so much for your quick response, Jennifer. I will definitely give this collage medium a try! Happy holidays to you and your family.

[@lnaperez6682]

Great video, Thanks

[@gloriareynolds3292]

Jen, I first became acquainted with you through my HeroArts discovery so long ago; I'm glad to see you are still a Hero Arts gal, as am I. Big question: I share a love of embellishing and finishing touches with you...how in the world do you keep cycling through all your goodies so they don't become "stale" without frequent use? My biggest nightmare/failure has been the Signo White Pen: I just threw away another one just this morning, because it just doesn't work for me if I ignore it for a month!

[@jennifermcguireink]

pens are really the only things that "run out" over time. I just use them so much they last until the run out for me!

[@Scrapcoreseartes]

Amo seus videos,

[@thirdeye1957]

can you point me to a company that makes clear stamps I am trying to get my name signature stamp

[@Fit_Kitty]

I got my personalized stamp from Joy Clair. Here's a link to their Custom Stamps section - I provided my own artwork and font because I knew exactly what I wanted but I'm sure they can do whatever you want. Highly recommend! www.joyclair.com/collections/customized-stamp-sets

[@1tinac]

Thank you.

[@chachadodds5860]

Jennifer, l love your videos & admire your talent. I pray all is well with you & your family. I did go to your website & couldn't finish registering because the box to change password wouldn't work for me, & even when I tried to email you about the problem, it wouldn't let me send it. Kept saying there was an error. I'm disappointed I won't be able to follow along & receive your posts. Contacting you here as a last resort.
