  1. What type and brand of paper did you use? I don’t see it in your affiant links. I love the cards you made with this set. You used several different techniques to get such different results so if there is just one paper that takes marker color and ink from a pad that would be great.

  2. What a fantastic way to use all the ink left on a stencil. I look forward to giving this idea a try. Love your cards. It’s hard to believe you got so many different looks from the same products. Thanks for sharing all you ideas!

  3. Beautiful cards! What wonderful ideas, thank you for sharing! Altenew has has such great bundles!

  4. Your cards are beautiful and Altenew is an amazing company. They do flowers like no one else. But I also love that you teach techniques I can use to stretch my stash of supplies. Part of the fun of watching your videos is a bit of shopping 🙂 but I also enjoy puzzling together ways to use what I already have. Thank you so much!!

  5. Wonderful ideas Jennifer and I look forward to playing with my small floral dies and create a wonderful variety of cards. You truly inspire us to use what we have and improvise!
