[@sarahhunziker4162]

Bless your tender heart, and bless your fur baby. Prayers for her speady recovery. The card is gorgeous!

[@marcialemaster8684]

I saw the card on Instagram and made sure it was the first I watched today. It is beautiful. My dog has had so many surgeries in his 14 years and I cry every time I have to leave him behind. Sending prayers for Molly and everyone who loves her.

[@AggieScrapMom]

That card turned out just gorgeous!!! So happy Molly had a successful surgery and hoping her recovery goes smoothly!

[@Bkchester78]

Once again a beautiful scene card!! I’m so happy that Molly is in recovery and continued prayers! I’m so glad you are on the Hero Arts team so I can be inspired each time my kit comes in the mail!!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Thank you!

[@marysharvey]

I am so glad Molly came through her surgery just fine.

[@tammybutters7904]

I am so happy I'm not the only one to admit that I cry every time I have to leave my fur babies!!!! Go Molly!!!!! 💜💜💜

[@aundriab.9538]

Glad Molly came through surgery alright, and that she's now home to recover. Appreciate your letting us know she's ok.

[@lltpgh2012]

Best wishes for Molly! Wish Molly a quick recovery.

[@lisagheno-cuevas6191]

The scene you’re created just pops off the page! You were truly heavenly inspired as you colored and cut out, popped up and highlighted, adding dimension and realism to paper and ink. WOW❣️ Hugs to you fur momma and to Molly as she recovers.

[@dotydiva]

So glad the surgery went well. She is in my prayers. They are so precious and so much joy. I hope shes in little pain. hugs..

[@elviamunguia8397]

This card is a wowzer!!! Pretty wow! I’m so happy that Molly is on the mend! God bless you Kelly! You sure are a great artist, amazing mom and I know a super wife!

[@margarete6888]

This coloring reminds me of the sunsets in New Mexico. There is a reason why they call it the land of enchantment! Beautiful.

[@lorie1508]

Beautiful card. So glad Molly's surgery went well.

[@JumpinJellyfish]

This. Card. Is. Incredible!!! 🤩 Looooove the colors and the dimension - it’s literally perfect. I’m also thrilled that Molly’s surgery went well. Thanks for keeping us updated despite having such a busy schedule! Much love and prayers. ❤️🙏🏽

[@reneecassidy7279]

Living in AZ, I just say wow to this card! Great color choices! Glad your fur babies surgery went OK and I hope for a good recovery for her. When I had fur babies, I always cried taking them to the vet! It is upsetting to see then frightened like that, and I’m sure most of us animal lovers are the same way!

[@rebeccah1635]

Sweet Molly! I am a total wreck about such things & completely understand crying about it. Add to that the anxiety you have about driving and wow, what a day! Continued prayers for her recovery and many more happy years together.

[@joanngirimonte9349]

I'm so happy Molly is home 💖 prayers for a speedy recovery!!! Gorgeous card Kelly 💖

[@christinesheppard5759]

Yeah Molly! The white gel pen highlights add so much to the card.

[@stylesformiles79]

What a great card! So glad to hear that Molly will be ok in the long run. You're such a great fur mommy!

[@CatherinesCreations7]

Gorgeous! And so glad that things went well with Molly's surgery.

[@conniefossi1327]

Beautiful card love your coloring/stenciling techniques. Glad Molly has had her surgery. Hope she recovers and heals well.

[@richardspeakman2608]

The card is stunning. I love it. I am so happy to hear that Molly did well with her surgery. I would of cried too. Poor baby doesn't understand what is going on. Worst feeling in the world. Praying for a quick and complete recovery. - Beth

[@sherrywoods4630]

Beautiful card. The colors are so striking and all of that dimension….how fun. Yay for Miss Molly - glad you both survived the ordeal.

[@jafountain3177]

Kelly, I am so grateful to hear that Molly had a successful surgery. Our first boxer had to have ACL surgery and it is was a job trying to keep a 6 yr. old boxer calm after that procedure. I will be praying steadily for Molly to have a successful recovery. Beautiful card and savvy techniques as always. Thank you for being you and bringing story time to the channel, it really is like catching up with a girlfriend. 💝

[@laurac8568]

So glad Molly’s surgery went well!! ❤️ Your card is stunning! Truly!

[@kareneaton433]

Continued healing prayers for Molly, thank you for update

[@sandrashaw8343]

Wow this is amazing! I'm so glad Molly is recovering. I'm thinking of her and all of you. X

[@mecheledunlap4301]

This card is beautiful, thanks for showing all your bloopers & how to fix them. Glad your sweet dog is okay

[@bettyhornberger1470]

Hoping that Molly has a fast recovery!

[@mrsmcphate]

Beautiful card! TFS! Wishing a speedy recovery for your daughter!

[@pattieduffy4992]

Absolutely Beautiful, as are all your cards. So creative and talented. 🙏 for Molly's full recovery. Our shih tzu Is our family, the baby... Thank you for sharing your Talents.

[@KDVoller]

I love this card. I lived in NM and the sunsets were gorgeous, most from the sand and dirt in the air. Still gorgeous.

[@Cards4Cancer]

This is just amazing Kelly. I am so happy to hear Molly's surgery is over and she is healing. We went through a similar situation when our miniature poodle tore his ACL on both back legs. My vet didn't feel that he would ever be out of pain after the surgery. It killed me, but I could not see him suffer any longer. We had to hold him up to go to the restroom. It still brings me to tears. 14yrs of love and devotion. Forever in our hearts.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Oh no I'm so sorry.

[@TheLotte64]

Always a stunning card. Love the creativity, to turn the stencil around 👌. Love to hear the great news about sweet Molly❤️. Lots of love to her, and a speedy recovery ♥️

[@georgesgentry5835]

Gorgeous card. Love the desert. Your card is amazing. So glad Molly doing well. Wishing you many more happy years with her.

[@clarellechevallier-siclait2507]

I love how you gave it your own special twist! Thanks for sharing!

[@kiminalaska9363]

What an awesome card! I love how you added the stenciling to the background for depth. I am so glad that Mollie came through the surgery well and I hope she has a smooth recovery. I have a small dog who is near the life expectancy for his breed and I know when that time comes I am going to be a total wreck and will have to take time off work to mourn.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

It's so awful to lose them. Hopefully you have a lot more time left.

[@brandonschwarz5024]

Beautiful card. And hope Molly is recovering well

[@barbaraglorioso7370]

Kelly this card is definitely jaw dropping! 💜

[@kraftyenchantments]

Happy to hear that Mollys surgery was successful. This card is stunning!! I want to vacation there in your card!!

[@pamelasertich9850]

I haven't watched you create in a long time and this was such a treat. You blow me away with your coloring and your sense of design. I WANT that card. I want to frame it. It is gorgeous. I love this kit this month. I live in San Antonio so it is fitting. We are frying here. :). So glad Molly is doing well. I know all about driving terror. I have a complete fear of bridges. I used to live in New Orleans and driving back and forth you had to cross so many long bridges. One night when traveling from San Antonio to NO, I had to pull over and find out if there was anyone that could help me get across the lake. I don't know what I was thinking. Have someone hold my hand, who knows. So, I know all about terror on the road. Bless you and your family,

[@jodinicholas890]

This card was so beautiful. As an Arizonan, it reminds me of what I see around me. Thanks

[@ellenfisher3302]

Kelly - this is one of the most stunning cards I've ever seen! Thanks much for sharing. Best wishes to Molly girl.

[@lindalanges7058]

Looks amazing Kelly. Love all the different coloured layers - so good! Hope Molly heals well😘

[@sass818]

Absolutely stunning. What I love about you is your transparency…I want to thank you for sharing your love of crafting with us. Blessing to you and your family (dog2)

[@KellyTaylorCards]

You are so welcome! Thank you!

[@mominator-inator]

Kelly, I have to tell you that I am not a fan of the desert. BUT your coloring of this scene is GORGEOUS! And thank you for the update. I was just wondering about her yesterday. Prayers for a full and speedy recovery for Molly!

[@dingfriesaredone]

This card is insane. Such a good amount of dimension. Glad Mollie is ok. You’d hate to drive in Tennessee.

[@mycreativebent]

I had to run and order this kit. Love it. Your card is fabulous. So glad Molly did well. Thanks for the update. Continued prayers for a quick recovery

[@denisestine2141]

I LOVE this card!!! Beautiful!! I am so happy that Molly"s surgery went well! Back roads, My Daughter lives in a little villiage outside of Fredrick Md.... the main road to get to her house is all hills, dipps & curves ( just like a rollercoaster) & she thinks that it is crazy fun to go over the speedlimit ( for most of it, not the curves, Thank God!!) and lift people out of their seats, even though we are wearing seatbelts!!🙄😬Oh, and it is a 2 lane backroad!!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

I would be dead. lol

[@ruthwerbecki7823]

What a beautiful card. Thank you for such a lovely scene.

[@michelleortega6005]

Love this card. So glad your Molly is doing good.

[@debbiepiccolo7846]

Fantastic card. Glad to here everything went well with Molly.

[@michelegourd5742]

Beautiful !! Glad things went well with Molly!!

[@elainewood7719]

Absolutely stunning sunrise/sunset. So pleased molly's surgery went well, I always hate to leave my babies st the vet I sleep with them on the bed so it's hard. ❤🐶

[@joannewong3282]

Love the dimension. It looks fantastic.

[@nancyallin525]

Wow! Your card is gorgeous!! Sending Molly well wishes. My dog had the TPO surgery a couple months ago. He’s doing so well now, and has returned to his happy self. I’m sure Molly will do the same❤️

[@heatherfergusonsuprfoxdesigns]

Great card. Glad Molly is on the mend, I had one of my girls years ago have that surgery and it gave her so much back, she was an Aussie mix

[@madelinelittman1863]

Beautiful scene! Everything you do comes out amazing!,

[@bertas-cards]

Love this month’s kit & add-ons. Reminds me of home.

[@teriwilson897]

Kelly - your vision and coloring amaze me…I could only hope to be this good someday 🤗

[@rhondallyons9842]

You really have a talent for the color blending!

[@dinacarroll9211]

Beautiful colors on this scene card.

[@mrsdlouro]

Totally sunset! That’s the night sky out in Arizona!

[@lindailey2225]

So glad to hear that Molly’s surgery went well. Hope she recovers quickly. I have a left knee that probably needs surgery. I’ve been told I have arthritis in my knees. I had a MRI on the left one and I have two tears in the meniscus and a small cyst. Gotta go see an orthopedic surgeon and I’m having a hard time calling one. Now to the card, I am amazed at the dimension and the wonderful color you got. Your talent shines through on this and I’m going with sunset.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Oh no. I'm so sorry to hear that. I know that both my Dad and my Father-in-law had to have their hips done and both said they wish they wouldn't have waited. I hope you get some relief!

[@tootsiebelle8891]

Awesome card! Reminds me of Monument Valley ☀️🌵❤️

[@jillbarger2593]

I'm not a fan of desert/cactus type scenes, but you are an inspiration! I so loved this card that I ordered the kit and can't wait to give it a try💕💕

[@maryhughes6390]

Beautiful card. Yeah Molly!

[@jacquelineasmith178]

It’s good to hear that Molly made it through her surgery well! Looking at the card, it could be either sunrise/set. I’m thinking the biggest difference would be created by shadows in the foreground…over thinking it. It’s so nice to see something made and the process you go through to create it. I get their kits, so it gives me a starting point to jump from. It’s too bad my brother just moved from Arizona to Florida…lol. I could have used it for a Christmas card idea. I still might…🤷‍♀️🙄

[@karenmarie2282]

Love this card! So happy to watch your videos!

[@kathryna5912]

Love the vibrant colours! And I’m so glad Molly’s surgery went well, and is over with! Now, hope she heals quickly.

[@martharodriguez4864]

Love ❤️ the card….thank you so much for sharing!

[@saranieuwenhuis]

Beautiful card! I do love the colors!

[@kristinevencel2898]

Beautiful card design!!! I already ordered this kit since I live in Phoenix and this looks just like where I live. One may think we have sand here, but it is soooo dry …usually ….that the dirt acts just like sand. It blows everywhere. I am happy to hear you made it safely, albeit anxiously, to the vet. It is so strange that what you think is terrifying is so exhilarating to me. Meaning rolling roads. The faster, the better!! That’s what makes the world go around. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Haha I'm glad someone like it!

[@karatekate89]

Cool card! I understand the driving anxiety. I can’t drive over bridges or in traffic. I actually hyperventilate to the edge of dizziness.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Bridges are terrible for me too. I get tunnel vision. It's awful. Hugs my friend!

[@kathleendougharty3210]

Great card. Totally southwest! Take heart with Molly. My Grace blew out BOTH her knees at the same time. She had 2 separate surgery’s a year apart and had no issues up to the time she passed. She was 9 at the time of her surgery’s and passed at 15. She was a run and gun kind of dog so we had the metal option done.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Thank you for the encouragement!

[@743linda]

Absolutely beautiful card! So glad Mollie's surgery was successful ❤️. Let me know if I can help in anyway! Continued prayers for a speedy recovery!

[@sherrifredrickson2509]

Such a pretty card! My best to Miss Molly!

[@GodsDesire4me]

Beautiful scenery love it 🥰

[@kellyjoskreations]

Wow! That card is gorgeous. I’m so happy Molly is coming home. I’m keeping all of you in my prayers. I know how hard it is when our furbabies aren’t well😻🐾❤️

[@lorena617]

Wow what an amazing card

[@cidji7799]

Beautiful card 😊, thank you. I have oxide inks but I'm looking for another more vibrant ink, without a chalk effect. I'm hesitant to buy distress regular ink as I imagine it's harder to blend and hard not to get brown.... I'm a beginner. But you do it so easily ! Congratulations !

[@katherinepowell3856]

Beautiful.

[@rebeccah1635]

Oops I was thinking about Molly so much I forgot to talk about the card! I gotta say I wasn’t too excited when I saw what the MMH kit was this month (no offense Southwest lovers, just not my thing)…but now? Wow! Your card is a stunner! I agree that all the variations in color create a tremendous amount of depth and really make things come to life. So we’ll done!

[@aprilsodoski4696]

This video made me buy this card kit!

[@lauravance8261]

I ordered the kit so beautiful.

[@Songbirdcraftsinc]

WOW, WOW, WOW 😮

[@julieclose6175]

Such a beautiful card 😁

[@camilleanzelmo6275]

Your card is beautiful! I have this kit but mine isn’t close to yours. Love yours!

[@sheridanielson3740]

you just blew me away! wowzers is all i have to say

[@bluesbabe73]

I purchased my adhesive eraser at the Dollar Tree. They work great and only cost $1.25

[@cindyadair3550]

Love your card! Beautiful colors Kelly! I feel your pain about fur baby we just went through knee surgery we are now 13 week post recovery and we also need the other knee done. Good luck!

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Glad yours is on the mend. Hopefully the second knee goes as well as the first!

[@reneeayling8238]

I have to take my puppy in to be spayed and I have heart break over it already and her appointment isn’t for 2 weeks. Absolutely beautiful card, love the detail.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

I hope everything goes well!

[@reneeayling8238]

Thank you. Also thank you for sharing your life with us. It’s comforting to know others have the same nervousness about things.

[@aufan7134]

Where do you get your who’s it what zits? Lol. Love this western card.

[@aufan7134]

How fast are you going driving on hills that makes your tummy flutter?. Just kidding. Love your stories.

[@norinemueller4588]

Glad Molly did well nice card. When you use the glue on your stencil do you have to wash it after?

[@KellyTaylorCards]

I don't. I just stick it back to it's packaging and peel it off as needed.

[@joyceliebe2364]

The card is so much more than I would have expected looking at the kit! Nice job! As for anxiety while driving, our adult son has that - was more just over bridges/high spots. Then they were hit by someone who ran red light, he was driving. He can hardly drive anywhere, his wife drives 99% of the time. Luckily they work together, teachers at some school - managers at same City Summer Camp program. But I worry a bit about him. By avoiding driving I think it will only get worse…. Do you have any advice? He has some mild anxiety anyway & has/discuss with his Dr., so he’s not hiding it or ashamed.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

It's so hard. A lot of times I just have to do it scared. I know it's worse if I don't drive for an extended period of time so I make myself go out. For me I turn on Christan music and roll the windows up. I also make sure I have a hand on the gear shift (when I had one) or the arm rest. Gripping it helps me feel more grounded. The extra noise adds to my anxiety. I also read my bible and pray about it. I'm not sure if your son has a faith he can lean on but it helps me quite a bit. Sending prayers for your son.

I haven’t started watching this video yet but, so I don’t forget, I wanted to tell you that this didn’t come up in my notifications. AmyR says the KZbin algorithm won’t give notifications etc to her followers unless they subscribe, ring the bell (set it to ALL), AND people like and comment on her videos. I always look for your videos, so I saw it.

[@KellyTaylorCards]

Thanks for letting me know. I wonder what's going on with that.

[@aufan7134]

How fast are you going driving on hills that makes your tummy flutter?. Just kidding. Love your stories. Actually, I hate that butterfly feeling and I live in a very hilly part of Alabama. Stay well.
