  1. Love all the ways you used the vases. I noticed you stacked a solid die cut under the die cut with the designs. The set doesn’t seem to come with a solid die the same size/shape, so I’m curious how you created that look.

  2. So loving this release! Your cards are wonderful. I must say that I’ve been so focused on the wonderful Boho Vases set that I completely overlooked the amazing Decorative Enamels Dies. It’s getting crowded at the top of my wish list!

  3. Beautiful cards! I loved how you used the stripes die for strips of card stock on your card, genius!! Loved the other ideas you had in this video for inside of cards. Thank you!

  4. Hello Jennifer, Sorry to leave this comment here but I didn’t see a “contact you”. I wrote you several years ago about the same issue – not being about to follow you for emails of your posts. I did see several errors in my profile which I corrected except for the username which “cannot be changed” – I must have created these errors using a dot com address by mistake. So I ‘d like to get back on your email list – if there is anything you can do, I’d appreciate it. The message when I attempted to rejoin said “compliance” & “bounce”, I have no idea what that means. Thanks, Denise

  5. Loved these cards and have made a number of them with ideas for more. Such a great look! You are such an inspiration to me and I appreciate so much the work you put into these videos. You may already be doing this, but I find it so quick and handy to use the mini Anna Griffin plates in the regular Empress machine. I have the regular plates on hand but rarely use them. A mini set is only about $29.

  6. Hi, Odessa from North Carolina USA. 😲 So many beautiful card designs. I am new to stamping and stenciling. I can’t wait to design great cards!

  7. I’d like to know if anyone has any tips on diecutting that “Rattan Stripes” die. I’ve tried MULTIPLE times and it simply will not cut all the stripes completely thru – I keep having to go in with a little pair of scissors and manually cut the portions that my machine (have tried on both my Big Shot and my Vagabond) won’t cut. I’m feeling extremey frustrated right now, because I’m really wanting to make multiple cards – but it’s just taking so long. Have tried taping the die to the cardstock and running it thru 2x and that STILL doesn’t do the trick. Arghhhh!
