  2. Kathy Weishuhn says:

    Our church is doing a campaign for healthcare workers at local hospitals this would be a great way to use these cards.

  3. This is a wonderful idea, Jennifer! Thanks!

  4. Vickie D says:

    Such a great idea & wonderful cards!

  5. Meghan Kennihan says:

    This is such a clever idea! So sweet! I LOVE the rainbow one!

  6. Pam says:

    Love the rainbow!! Neat idea for a card!

  7. Kim U says:

    Such a great idea! Your cards are always so uplifting and this new release from Simon Says Stamp is great!

  8. Autumn Bell says:

    Thanks, Jennifer! The card inserts are the perfect way to share kindness. I will definitely give this a try on a white card base so the next person has a blank canvas. And that rainbow-shaped card…. AMAZING!

  9. Gail says:

    Now it'[s official! I’ve been known to send a card with a detached note, so it could be sent along to someone else. Now I can just stamp that idea.

  10. What a fabulous idea for sharing cards!

  11. Jeanne Irwin says:

    Would love to have a link to the padded envelopes you use to mail cards with dimension. Thanks

  12. Carolyn Peters says:

    So many great ideas!

  13. Barbara-Jean says:

    Great idea and such cheerful cards!

  14. What an absolutely fabulous idea! The recipient gets to feel great twice!

  15. Monika Davis says:

    Oh, these are super cute! I love the rainbow shaped card! So cool! That stencil set is amazing too… oh, I just love this whole release! Thank you for the inspirations and the tutorials! Be safe and God bless!

    1. Allison Gilbert says:

      Love the pass it on card panels. What a great idea!

  16. Vivian says:

    Love the idea of passing it on and sharing.

  17. PHYLLIS FREESE says:

    Your cards are always so inspiring. I love the idea of having an insert encouraging people to send the card on to someone else who could use a lift. I’ve done this with a little typed insert, but it’s so much nicer to attach the insert with washi tape so it will remove easily.

  18. Cheryl Gerdes says:

    What a neat idea, love your cards!

  19. Barbara Chmura says:

    Great idea to share cards1

  20. Candy Clay says:

    Not a surprise that you would choose the pass on kindness part of the release!

  21. Lori Spitzer says:

    Hi, there –
    Thanks for the great exemplars and for making me understand better how to do a “pass this along” type of card. I thought I had the idea, but I did not think of using sort of a “post-it” note format.

    The cards you shared were/are just darling. Thanks!

  22. Percy Vincett says:

    Hello Jennifer, My name is Percy and I live in Canada. I love making handmade cards. Many , many years ago I started doing the removable inserts in my cards. I would stick a note into the card telling them they could re-use the card. After removing the insert they had a blank card on which to write. Now, the funny part. One Christmas one of the people I sent a Christmas card too, contacted some of my friends that I sent the same card to and asked them to to re-mail my card bake too me ! What a surprise I received when I started receiving my own cards back. LOL I used re-positional tape or a Zig glue pen to adhere my inserts. Love your video and the insert stamp set used. Please keep up the good work you do for oue crafting community. – Thanks and safe safe.

  23. barbara lassiter says:

    This is an awesome idea and a great way to pass along some kindness and caring. Your cards are awesome too and I loved all the products you used here!

  24. Jane says:

    Lovely cards!

  25. Aly Ricke says:

    Beautiful cards! I love the idea of being able to pass them on!

  26. Teri S. says:

    What a great idea these inserts are that allow us to give a small gift to someone. I give a variety of a dozen cards as part of a gift to my friend at Christmas & she says she is always thrilled to get them as she sends a lot of cards out.

  27. sharon Gullikson says:

    So cute. I am always looking for new and different…

  28. Mary Holshouser says:

    Love that smiling sun. The clouds
    behind him are fantastic. Great cards.
    thanks for sharing

  29. Carol Wortman says:

    As always wonderful ideas… today the one that jumped out to me was the use of the clear envelope!! We get so much rain and snow that may become a staple for me. Awesome video! Great stamp set!

  30. Cindy Aguirre says:

    Beautiful cards! I love the pass along inserts! Thanks for sharing your cards!

  31. Stella Sieber says:

    I’ve been adding insert cards for years. It’s great to have a new stamp set (to my one and only stamp) for stamping on the insert card. Recipients LOVE the idea of giving the card to another person. Thanks, Simon Says!!

  32. Lagene says:

    Awesome creations! Awesome Pass It On ideas and stamps!!!!!

  33. Mary-Anne V says:

    Fabulous cards…love how you can send some joy and then have it multiplied by using these inserts!

  34. Mary G says:

    Jennifer, all these ideas are excellent, as is your video — one need not use the pass it on sentiment for all ones cards — this is with respect to your comment about decorating the interior of a card — I find that some of my cards are made with a specific recipient in mind anyway, so I actually don’t expect them to pass the card on. For all the others, having this stamp set is really lovely. I find that sometimes I don’t think of that option until I’m finished with my card or sending it out.

  35. vtloulou says:

    Great idea – like the stamp with the pass it on sentiments!

  36. Judy Ellis Czarnecki says:

    Love your videos and love these sunny happy cards!

  37. SueB says:

    Love your cards. They are always an inspiration for me.

  38. Janelle says:

    What a great idea to add to cards. I know many people I have made elaborate cards for read them and drop them into the trash. This way there is a chance all my hard work could live on to brighten someone else’s day.

  39. Cherie says:

    These would be GREAT encouragement cards for a friend or ANYONE!

  40. Patty Eifert says:

    I love this idea!! Think I’ll start by sending some to my coworkers who I haven’t seen in months, and then some family members! Before I got to the part in the video where you suggest adding a second blank insert, I was already thinking of that! I think it would make it so much easier to send a second insert and envelope! Then all they have to do is stick some postage on! I like the idea of the slits because I’ve had my paper torn with washi tape in the past!

  41. Flo Swinford says:

    As always, great card. I love this whole idea. Thanks Jennifer

  42. OMG I have to have that stamp set!! I always put a sticky note on the card that they can remove the panel and resend but it would look so much better with the stamp in a light color.

  43. Kelly B says:

    Love this idea!!

  44. Wendy says:

    These cards are so cute! I like how you made the inside greeting removable so the card can be reused.

  45. AnneM says:

    What a good idea – stamps and your cards. Thanks for the inspiration.

  46. Fonda Rush says:

    I love the card inserts. What a great way to recycle a great homemade card!

  47. TKS says:

    I usually encourage my friends when receiving one of my card, to cut the front panel and attach to another basic card to reuse. I like your idea much better. I have always like to recycle and this is a great way to do that, thanks Jennifer for this wonderful idea.

  48. Susan Ott says:

    Your cards are always so uplifting and gorgeous. l love the idea of pass it on card! So thankful for all your videos during this pandemic.

  49. BECCA YAHRLING says:

    Cute cards! Love the rainbow shaped card; so cheerful!

  50. Jo Ann says:

    This new stamp set is exactly what I have been wanting! I appreciate your inspiration on how to put it to good use!!
