  9. I would like some tips on successful heat embossing for delicate sentiment or intricate images. Does it boil down to the products you use, or are there ways to increase success? Thanks for the opportunity to win such generous prizes. May you have a happy and prosperous 2017.

  23. Your projects are wonderful! Would love to see more cards made using the clarity brushes!

  24. Hi
    i love looking at all the fun cards you create but don’t have much in the way of coloring skills or time. Can you do some cards that aren’t so time intense with all the coloring needed?

  25. I love when you share new and different techniques with us. It’s fun to learn something new and use existing stamps to create a new design! Looking forward to new art loft (but not in the loft anymore!) retreats in 2017!

  26. Happy New Year to you Chris & Mr Harley. Congratulations on your successes in 2016 & best wishes for even more successes in 2017.
    Everyone has given great ideas of what they would like to see from a tour of your craft room to more pic of Mr H. I would be happy to see any of the suggestions

  27. Wow, Jenn you make such amazing creations and I am always so inspired by them. I would love to see more technique on using the Zig water color pens:)

  28. Happy New Year! I’d like to learn anything with watercolor techniques! I just got a set of metallic watercolors and haven’t played with them yet…if you have any tips.

  29. hi Jenn, Happy 2017! You already do so much, but I would LOVE to see more videos on YouTube of you assembling your cards, how to’s, your favs. etc.

  31. Oh gosh, I don’t know what to tell you that you’re not already doing! I love crafty short cuts and quick tips. I always enjoy seeing your projects pop up over at SSS too. Your whimsical creations always put a smile on my face.

  32. Hi Jenn,
    It seems that pop up cards are all the rage right now and so many new dies are coming out. Would love to learn more about how to make them. I also appreciate all the new card designs you share so please keep them coming!

    Best,
    Melissa

  33. Hi Jenn! Big congrats on being published – first, but not the last time, I’m sure. Even bigger congrats on returning to your beloved Cape Cod – lucky girl you are!
    Anything you are ready, willing and able to teach us is fine with me! I love learning new techniques so bring it!
    Happy, heathy 2017 to you, Chris and Mr. Harley.

  34. I’m pretty New and struggling at watercolor, tips on that are always welcome.
    Happy New Year! Love the cards in your post!

  35. I would love to see more no-line water coloring. I would also love to your new artsy space. Perhaps Mr Harley can give us a tour?! 😉

  36. You DID have a big year. And, all of it was great. I think the icing came toward the end with your first time being published. I didn’t say CONGRATS, yet, so I’ll so that right now, Jenn. No one deserves it more. Hmmm, what do I want to see in 2017… I guess more design ideas. I understand the basics of coloring with different mediums and just need to practice, but I am running out of ideas for card designs and find myself repeating the same ones. BORING! Happy New Year to you, Mr. Harley, and Chris! My best to all of you.

  39. You can never go wrong with more adorable pics of Mister Harley! Such a cutie! Adore your work! Happy New Year!

  42. I would love to see more techniques for using the Misti. Aside from multi piece stamping, i dont know what to do with it!!

  43. Thanks for sharing in this awesome blog hop! Since I just got the brush markers for Christmas, I’d love to see more tips for using them.

  44. I really struggle with small stamp images. If they don’t almost fill an A2 card space, I don’t even look at them. I’d love to get some help using those adorable small stamps that I ignore. Thanks for the chance to win a great prize! Happy 2017!

  45. What a lovely sunset photo at the top! And so much else is inspiring…
    May you have a most blessed 2017.

  46. Thanks for such a great prize! I would like to see how to use all those little bits and bobs that some with stamp sets. It is easy to use the main focal images but what to do with all the little bits! Cheers.
