Stripe Inlay

[@cherylscrivens3560]

Beautiful cards and great technique, Jennifer, and what a wonderful cause. My grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's, so this is near to my heart. And what a blessing these cards will be to many! Hugs!

[@mindyreed2625]

I love this idea Jennifer. My mom was in a nursing home for a few years before she passed away. She had dementia. She and others in her wing would have and would love to get cards. I live in Loveland, OH, near you. She was in Loveland Health Care Center.

[@rigmorolsson4765]

Beautiful cards, Jennifer! :) Such a great cause! I don't know anyone with Alzheimers (thank god...) but my dear grandmother passed almost a year ago and she had Parkinsons.... Hugs from Sweden!

[@jo-annefoster6496]

Wow Jennifer... Thank you. Through your videos I've learnt sooooo much stuff. You are such a talented lady, keep up the good work, I look forward to watching for many more years to come. Thank you xxx

[@maggiebaxter610]

Hi Jennifer ~ Once again you've totally rocked the video world! I love this idea of using up some scraps and you've shared several fun color combos. Inlaid die-cutting always looks incredibly elegant and the receiver of the card asks, "How'd you do that?" Thanks for continuing to inspire me and for constantly encouraging all of us. I hope you're enjoying your weekend! ~HUGS~

[@julieb8946]

I cannot believe that I amJUST NOWSEEING THIS! What beautiful cards, as always, Jennifer! ❤

[@judybrown1513]

I love this idea of using scrapes to make backgrounds or panels for cards. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@krissyskreations]

Jennifer, you are so talented and creative!! I love watching your videos because they are original. Thanks for sharing! Much love and many blessings to you!!!

[@marybuxbaum7847]

What a great technique -- so many possibilities. And the cause for which the cards will be donated is near and dear to my heart, as my own dad had Alzheimer's. I would love to donate some cards.

[@lisanorstrom4656]

Great cause and beautiful cards - thanks for the tip about smoothing out the bumps/impressions left by the dies. This is the way I flatten my watercolor designs if they get too warped and will not lay flat on my card. I was so excited when I thought of this I wanted to share it with the world - since that is not a reality for me I will share it here - lol. (Not claiming this as my idea - just something that popped in my head during a moment of desperation). Jennifer I have followed you for years and I truly admire your kindness and not only your passion to create, but also to share with and inspire us. Thank you for blessing us with your precious time in this life to do so!

[@teresadoyle1396]

These are all so beautiful Jennifer. Some of my card friends used to make fun of me for keeping the strips from my glittered and metallic papers but they knew I would use them. This is what I did with mine as well but I used mine for backgrounds rather than the focal portion of my cards. Lots of great tips here for new uses for those scraps. Thanks so much for sharing AND CARING!

[@loueejackson6189]

I love how you focus so much on kindness and gratitude. You're a genuinely lovely person. And this is a great technique! I have so many scraps to use up.

[@CardsbyMaaike]

Alzheimer is relentless, so how wonderful to support this cause, your cards are fab as always.

[@marandawithana6232]

What a GREAT idea! Guess I know what I'm doing with my scraps! Thank you, Jennifer!

[@lisaroettger4700]

I really love your videos. The ideas are so creative and your step-by-step instructions are easy to follow. Thanks for all the hard work that I know is behind each one.

[@ironbarklyn]

Great video Jennifer - very clear and concise instructions and so easy to follow. Thanks heaps

[@pattiepan]

Really great cards Jennifer...so handsome looking clean and simple but still a lot of work...a great video...thanks.

[@bevpallenbelbin7100]

I love all your videos and am always amazed with all the different wonderful and creative ideas you have. Beautiful cards. Have never heard of your card drive but will surely be looking into it. What a great idea to help our those who may not have too many visits, and show them they are not forgotten. Fantastic.

[@kmscrap]

Love this technique. Will certainly check out the stamps and dies. My father has quick progressing Alzheimer's.

[@Pebblesmas]

Thank you Jennifer, you are so creative and looking at all your youtubes always makes me so happy and creative to !! THANX for all your efforts.

[@grannydorsey1388]

Jennifer once again you make card making look so easy. I have some of the items and I can't wait to get started today. TFS

[@2848Adriana]

Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for this technique and it is a great idea, and all your cards are beautiful. Cheers Anna.

[@jeanbullock3076]

Awesome! I learned two new tricks today. How to smooth the bumps and how to create my own striped background. Can't wait to try it.

[@susielessard4304]

The card drive is a great idea. My husband and I are part of the Pastoral Care Team of Daniel Island Fellowship on Daniel Island, SC. We provide a full Sunday service including communion to Summit Place Assisted Living facility. The community of elderly there have experienced memory loss, stroke, etc. But... those that can still try to interact and be as active as they are able. They love cards! And if fact, I'll be helping them toward the end of October with a little card class. Everything will cut and prepared for them - all they will have to do is glue the elements of their card. Thank you for thinking of our elderly. How we treat our seniors and elderly says a lot about who we are as a people.

[@marywhiteside1061]

I live in West Ashley. Do they accept cards from outside? Like could my kids and I make some and bring them there?

[@suzanneO6924]

These are beautiful.Thanks for the tip you gave for flattening out ridges on die cuts. And I'll be checking into this wonderful card drive. Thank you!

[@terrie1226]

I'm looking forward in the Card Drive....I did it last year and going to do it this year again.... Your stripe inlay card turned out awesome....what a great way to use all of the scraps....I have plenty of it....tfs

[@sharonmesdag7687]

A wonder cause and beautiful cards, as always I have learned something new. Thank you

[@CassieDA17]

What a great cause. My going to try to make some cards for this. I often use this strips of paper technique, but have always use my patterned paper scraps. I love the look of the solid colors with the words die cut into them. Definitely trying that!

[@biamakani3548]

Great cards. Thank you for the tip. Those bumps definitely used to drive me crazy.

[@orderstephslc6988]

I've been watching you for 5 years now started when i got married. never thought your video would make me cry i almost stopped it. i was my mothers care giver she now stays in a nursing home in texas. I wanted to make everyone a card but, alez/dem. seeing my mom fade makes it IMPOSSIBLE (for me) mom looked too young to be there (at 55 she looked 35)but in just 4 years she has aged. your video the people behind your video touched a nerve. im at a cross road now. we fly twice a year to see her and im dreading going this year. on top of it im disable which is why I started crafting keeps me positive but now my strong husband is fighting a losing battle with his leg. which will probably cause us not to travel but yeah when it rains it pours. i cant believe your video has me 😢. i promise to cheer up cause i bet i am not alone many people deal with ageing parents. ok happy thought happy thought. i will try your latest techniques to take my mind off

[@JeanneJordanexteach]

I can relate. Same with my mom, but we lost her three yeas ago. Stay positive. You sound like a strong woman. You can handle this and all future hurdles! :)

[@jennifermcguireink]

sneding you love and hugs. and could love to give some cards for you to take to her nursing home! prayers.

[@orderstephslc6988]

your making me cry again. I would love that. I'm glad this is a digital reply because my words are not Audible at the moment.

[@debbiehorton8130]

Order SLC a

[@joannportell2593]

Dear SLC, My heart goes out to you and your family! I lost my mother last December and have a 14 year old quadrapalegic grandson (he had a stroke a year ago). I too craft and make cards....I like to send them out and made some for my son and daughter-in-law to send out to the dozens of people who reached out and funded equipment for Timithy last year. Hang in there, you are loved and people do care. I will be praying for you and your husband. Please know that you are not alone.

[@pctchr]

Now I know one way use my pins on my coloring palettes board on Pinterest....I can use those as inspiration for my strips of scrap papers--I have a lot! Thanks for the ideas!

[@MaryK-iw9xo]

Great cause. I will check your blog for info. Thanks for sharing the tip on how to get rid of the bumps and ridges. They drive me crazy!

[@donniefauber5669]

I love the stripe cards!! I have so many scraps that I refuse to toss. Thank you so much for such a fabulous video!!!

[@emmari0601]

Loved the cards and this technique and THANK you so much for the flattening advice! Game changer!

[@jennifermcguireink]

You are so welcome!

[@melstampz]

There is no end to your ingenuity, Jennifer. I am always in awe. Thanks for the inspiration! P.S. that trick to get the debossed bump off. Dang! Love it.

[@coopie624]

This technique would be perfect for bookmarks!

[@AyaBlue22]

I always adore the colors you choose. These turned out beautifully.

[@ChristyVelasquezTheStampCycle]

These are gorgeous and what a fantastic idea! Thank you so much for the tip about smoothing out die cuts...the bumps drive me insane!

[@joannportell2593]

Jennifer, I am so thankful that you have closed captioning on your videos! Don't know if it's part of your video or a part of the You Tube experience. Either way, I have a hearing loss and find turning on the closed captioning helps me not miss out on videos or tv.

[@jjellii1228]

Love this idea for using scraps!

[@moaahlgren5193]

just beautyful in so many ways! Love it.

[@bubblesetcetera176]

[@robinleonard8862]

[@corinne1691]

I just love, love, love the green & teal combo! Going to be doing that color combo for sure.

[@roxannetucker5813]

Love this idea. I have so many pieces of scrap paper from making my handmade cards, this is wonderful. Thank you, so much for the idea!

[@LilCraftyNook]

Yes on the Alzheimer's Assoc!! My bf's father passed with that, so we are both very active in the cause!! Bless you!! Beautiful cards!!

[@npatriciacastillo6671]

I got my email from Vera 2 days ago. I'll be taking cards to my local nursing home again. ❤ it!

[@vickigersey8138]

N Patricia Castillo, sorry for this stupid question, but do we make Christmas cards or cards from the kindness stamps? 😊

[@npatriciacastillo6671]

Vicki, not sure I understand the question but I'll answer it the beat I can. For the caring hearts card drive, you can make any card from any company with any sentiment but these will be delivered around Christmas. I've been helping deliver the cards to a local nursing home for several years now. Does this help? ☺

[@erikakjellsson1756]

Beautiful cards! I lost my father in Alzheimers in 1992. He was only 59 years old when he passed away. Great cause!

[@jijopera]

amazing project here! so inspiring. thank you so much!

[@pattymongolo9643]

I love this technique! There have been days when I sat at my craft desk and just put together card fronts like this....now I have a file full of ones ready to use. I think I will try this with some Christmas colors or Christmas scraps to make some Holiday cards. I wonder if having a subtle stamped off image on the background would look good?

[@videokkrazy]

so beautiful!

[@MultiplicityCrafts]

Great idea!

[@CraftingMyWorld]

Love these cards! Such a cool technique to create the striped backgrounds! Thanks so much! :-)

[@charlenekergoyan102]

Hi, Great video Where I can find this glue paper ? Thanks

[@bethostrowski6089]

Great idea for the card drive, we do that here in WI also! Quick question but do you have a tutorial for heat embossing? I just can't seem to get it right and you make it look so quick and easy. I have the Milwaukee heat gun but my paper either burns a little or curls. Any advice is appreciated.

[@Squid8Vids]

www.jennifermcguireink.com/techniques/heat-embossing found this on her site, hope it helps! Jennifer does have the best videos.

[@Karicar90]

could you make more videos on how to use up scraps? I'm drowning in them and I don't know what do to!

[@dianewalsh258]

Where can i buy the Misty stamp positioner tool from and what is the correct name and maker of the misty?

[@barbaratroxell6682]

very beautiful Jennifer.

[@dljohnson0]

can you show me where the stamp kindness matters in the script you used is on the sugar pea stamp set kindness matters ?
