I have been binge-watching you a bit this week. I love silhouette stamps and your backgrounds just bring everything to life. Plus, you had me laughing out loud now and then with some of your comments/thoughts. I have learned so much and I’m looking forward to bringing out some forgotten stamps and trying some of your background techniques…splatter….faux bleaching…paint dots…whatever. Thank you! Gorgeous cards! 💕
Like this tutorial very much Jo and I had a really good laugh about your stories to share. Isn’t it lovely to have a pet nearby and crafting at the same time. Thanks for your always lovely work.
I have some lovely purple lightweight card that I would use to back your lovely card on Jo... such a simple design and just two colours but a beautiful result... thank you... 👍💕
So happy to hear you say you use your crafting to keep you calm during adversity. I rely on it also when my husband’s cancer and son issue overwhelm me. I actually felt like it was wrong to spend time crafting during these bad times. So it helped me a lot to hear you do the same. Thank for sharing.
I agree with Sharon. I love the art work. But honestly the easy conversation and humor is something I look forward to each day. I love listening to you, being American, your accent is awesome. Your cards are always so elegant. The way you take it step by step, often with rationale make me feel I can do it too!.
Thank you so much for your lovely words Linda, I really feel very passionately about spending time with everyone, and showing that anyone can create these designs. I feel we all need friends at the minute, and a lovely, safe space to create in….xx❤️
Lovely , so talented. I must say I did hold my breath when you went in with the stencil. 😱 , I would have ruined my card I’m sure . Thank you for great ideas .
I really love those colours together. These cards look beautiful 😍. Sorry, I’m just about to rewind you so hope you don’t feel too dizzy! so that I can craft along with you. Take care and Thank you. X
Oh Jo you have been through it. I really hope your son is well now. I have a son with mental health issues. Very difficult to get through everyday. Your videos cheer me up you are so lovely. Thank you xx
those cards are so lovely! I had to go on a hunt for the stamp and found it. I do love poppies and you certainly educated me. I just thought there were only red poppies. I saw a gorgeous photos of So Many Colors. Also I learned many butterflies are called a kaleidoscope. A few years ago I was watching a veterinarian show and they had a huge poster up with what all the groups of various animals are called and I took photos of it. It probably had butterflies but I don't recall. You cracked me up with the wash powder. My dad's been gone 32 years, but as a job he worked as an inspection foreman in a huge plant and walked 10 to 15 miles a day. When he retired he asked his wife what she was doing different with the laundry because his pants were shrinking LOL also just wanted to say that I love your amethyst ring. I'm slightly obsessed with the color purple so your card and your ring all made my heart Happy. 😊 also I subbed to your Channel. Oh and I wanted to say I am glad that your son is doing better and getting over covid.
I totally agree - it's the washing powder, Jo. This is a world wide problem you see, so it has to be the washing powder :-) As always, I enjoy my time watching you create your cards. Thank you for the inspiration. I'm one of those crafters whose mojo has flown out the window, so your inspiration right now is very welcome. You card is lovely and you're right, it will be perfect for any number of occasions. Hope you and your family all get all better soon. God Bless ~ Lena xx
I agree crafting as been my saviour my beautiful, healthy 9 yr old granddaughter died last year of a very rare brain tumour and thank god to you girls with your tutorials on you tube, otherwise I don’t know what would have become of me. I still have bad days but every day was black before crafting . I have just found you today and already spent too much at Lavinia’s lol
Orh I feel your fears, as you know I have epilepsy, and I was terrified of getting covid. I did end up with it, and I was bad😰. My epilepsy started when I was about 12, but went much worse, when I was pregnant with my eldest. You melted my heart, when you said you sat by Mikey’s bed side. You are a truly wonderful lady❤️. Love the card, as I always do. I’m getting through lots of your videos, and I’ve even ventured in getting out my brayer. Thank you for pushing me, to do new things.❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful design. Lovely tutorial thank you, you make me giggle too ! I’m going to give this one a whirl, such an adaptable card , birthday, thank you, thinking of you.... my favourite colours too.
I have just found your tutorial by accident but I think it was really meant to be. You have made me laugh and given me ideas at the same time, thank you for being such a lovely person.
Hi Jo I just want you to know I have made this card 5 times now. I live everything about it. I posted my make on FB a few months back and got some lovely comments. I have left FB now for various reasons but still watch you on TH-cam. I love your work and I’m always watching your demos. 💕Veronica Roberts 💕
I have only just started on my Lavinia journey, and I’m loving your demo’s Jo. I’m in Western Australia, and you sound like your from somewhere I grew up, I just love the sound of your voice. By the way I’m from Sale Cheshire, I’ve lived here in WA since 1974.
Hi Anne, so lovely to have you here and joining in with our Craft journey. How lovely that you are from Sale, I know it well. I am originally from Kendal in the Lake District but moved to Withington to train and work as a Therapy Radiographer at The Christie Hospital. I know live in Holmes Chapel in Cheshire…. So lovely to hear from you xxx❤️
Jo you’ve really inspired me to use my gel plates and blending inks x iv had some pan pastels for many years but never really used them until now after watching your demos on here x so Thankyou x
Thanks so much for your video. It was exactly what I needed today. Btw, you have the most beautiful hands🙌 . I hope your son gets better soon. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Absolutely gorgeous Jo. Yes my mojo has deserted me too, even after buying more stamps since Christnas.Before I saw your video I went in my craft room and was determined to make a card, I also used one I hadn't used for years. If I pluck up the courage I will share it tomorrow.xxx
I love it! What is your favourite colour to use for a background? Whenever I’m crafting I hear your voice saying- “we don’t want any pizzas”! I think it’s a great piece of advice I’m so sorry to hear about your son 😞 I hope he recovers quickly.
I loved you before, but I love you even more for sharing your personal family story with us. I hope it is theraputic (sp?) for you to verbalize these trials and tribulations. I had to be tested today and am on pins and needles awaiting the outcome. have not felt well all this week and so I am turning to you for some soothing crafting to watch! btw - I find it very relaxing to cut and enjoy doing so in bed (alone!). so we do share that in common. xo
Jo just beautiful as always thank you Hope everyone feels better soon. Your right at least we have crafting it really does take your mind off things. Love how you make a small card and than you can mat it and make it bigger genius. This card should go on a wall, mine lol Bat wings lol we call them bingo arms and yes the clothes are shrinking Do you make the acetate piece or is that the way the stamp comes?
Hi Jo from Victoria in Australia. I really love your work, it's beautiful, classy and inspirational. A while ago I purchased Lavinia's "Simmi" stamp after seeing it used somewhere on a card project (I am a card maker). Of course, since I bought it, I can't find the original inspiration, so I'm wondering if you have this stamp, whether you would consider doing a card project with it for a video? Kind regards, Heather :-)
Absolutely beautiful Jo. You inspire me so much. Hope your son gets better soon. Can I ask what paint brush you used with the inktense pencils, it looked lovely and fine. Your videos are a godsend during these difficult times, thank you so much. Stay safe, much love from Spain ♥️
Thanks Jill for your lovely comment, I must admit I buy my brushes when I see them , so not sure where this one came from sorry . On the side it has written, size 0, Artmaster allmedia series 10 , hope that may help xx
What a beautiful card ,I have just subscribed to your u tube channel. Can you tell me where you purchased the splatter brush from. From a very snowy north Wales ☃️
Hi Jo, I have been watching your videos for DAYS now, LOL! They are fantastic!! I have a couple of questions regarding the acetate with the images on them. Does the stamp come with an image on acetate already? Do you stamp the images on acetate yourself? If you do it, what kind of ink do you use so that it doesn't smear and do you heat set it? Thank you!! I love the purple theme of this card!!
Hi Shelly, thanks so much for watching these little videos. The Lavinia and Aall & Create stamps both come with the design on the acetate, so that is very useful. If I was going to stamp on Acetate , I would use a Staz-On ink and then a Staz-on ink cleaner for my stamps,,,xx
I have been binge-watching you a bit this week. I love silhouette stamps and your backgrounds just bring everything to life.
