Beautiful cards! Thank you!
Bless your heart Jennifer, When you said “I use to be an Engineer”.... dear, you will always be an engineer, now you’re a paper artist/Engineer. It’s quite an accomplishment to have an Engineering degree, own that and enjoy all your beautiful facets that make Jennifer, Jennifer! 👏🏼👏🏼♥️

Exactly! Any time I watch her videos with a friend or one of my sisters, I always catch myself saying, “look, look, she’s so smart” when Jennifer shares some amazing time-saving technique or a tip that reduces a whole lot of stress that card-making could lovingly bring (i.e the type of stress you get when forgetting to add acetate to a shaker card, and ending up with beads absolutely everywhere!)
Another super easy way to achieve striped designs is to use quilling strips. No cutting and longer strips than these dies will cut which gives you more options. You won’t be using up your scrap paper if you go this route though. For using up scraps I use small dies like hearts, flowers, and circles. I like to have these kind of multi use die cuts on hand. A few years back I decided to stop buying Washi tape and ribbons. Instead I use paper strips. Usually I stamp or stencil before cutting the strips. The decorated strips serve the same purpose and are less expensive. Less stuff to store too.
You know what’s great? Being busy and not going on KZread for a while, and then coming back and finding 50 of your videos ready for me to watch. There’s my weekend sorted. 😂
“I used to be an engineer”. I really think that ‘once an engineer, always an engineer’. 🤓. Love your cards, love you.
O' be still my heart!!! Cardstock strips on cards, my absolute Jam! Thank you thank you for showing so many ways to use these on cards and the quilt squares are my absolute favorite! I know what I'll be doing tonight!!! Thank you so much Jennifer!
Thank you, as a retired office manager/bookkeeper nice to know I'm not the only one to use graph paper. Love the ideas.
I so appreciate the little details you share because they are the little details that give your cards the beautiful polished look I want to achieve as well. Thank you.
I love that you and Cathy Zielske are friends...I love you both. Making my own pattern paper from scraps is one of my favorite things to do... so addictive. I love these ideas to step it up!
Wonderful stripped cards,, ha! When you made the quilted squares my heart was happy. Also loved the stenciled strips with the new SSS stencil done in white. Lots of ideas to save for another day, but they’re so fun. The dies to cut perfect strips are genius. TFSharing, Jennifer! 💕🌈 💌
A great set of ideas! Those square ones especially have a air of "how was this made?!".
Jennifer: nobody is ever gonna see this. Me: 570 of us have seen this. 😆😆😆 I know you mean the recipient, it's just so funny when you say it. I need to work with paper strips more anyway. Thanks so much for the ideas!
Another great video! I like the grid paper idea. My hands are bad shake etc. So the grid paper will be very handy. Yet another item to add to my shopping list! The embossing is great looks so classy.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💕💕💕💕💕😍😍😍😍🐶🐶🐶🐶🇬🇧🇬🇧
What? I casually drop by KZread and my favorite Queen has posted ?? Yessssssss

I bow to your genius! Wow, so much more I’ve learned today. Your kids are so lucky to have you helping them learn this year. You have such a clear illustrative way of explaining things.😁
Thank you so so much for focusing on a beautiful method with new ideas that doesn’t require running out to spend $50 or more to be able to use your technique. I know you need to showcase products to earn an income, but it is very thoughtful to offer some ideas that are not $$$ demanding! Thank you. Thank you.
Love the "bummer" usage and paper sander is great idea!
I have taken on a few more jobs lately and didn’t have much time for videos...WOW! I learned so many things by watching this video. Thank you so much for being so generous with your talent! It is such a gift to us! God Bless You!
Jennifer, I just love these cards Thank you for sharing all your information and tricks with us so we can also make beautiful cards.❤️
love love love the way you interact with your friends. I completely get it, I am also an introvert.
You never cease to amaze me with your creativity! Watching your videos is a happy spot in my day!
Can not get enough of your tutorials. I dont even make cards. Just love your ideas
Just watched more of this video. Wow! So many incredible tips! Best video ever! Thank you!
Every one of your videos give me ideas. And your presentation makes is such a pleasure to watch you create. You're a blessing. Thanks
Jennifer, you and Cathy Z and Gina K have so upped my card making! Thank you. I’m a beginner and you give such excellent step by steps. You are an engineer AND a great communicator!
I do like the look of cards with paper strips and it’s a great way to get rid of scrap cardstock. Thank you for the new ideas and for refreshing my brain on some of the ideas you’ve used before. I also like the “love your guts” die and will be sending that to all of my grandkids. Thank you again for your time bringing us these great videos. You are such a blessing in this world!!
I especially love the way you used the strips in this video. I can’t wait to try it with products I have!
Thank you! I would never have thought about grid paper. Great tip!
I always love to use cardstock up and makes stripey cards! As always you cards are inspiring Jennifer, thank you! Xx
It would have been so cute if you Jennifer Maguired the tiny card in the envelope! Maybe cut some tiny die cuts and stamped it and turned it into a tiny version of one of your cards! These were so pretty and clever, whoever gets these is a lucky person!
Love your ideas, Jennifer. You are such a blessing to us!
These are all beautiful Jennifer. I love to use all my scraps this way, it always makes me feel good to not waste cardstock. The stencil and embossing folder examples are particularly gorgeous!
I think your channel is the BEST channel on KZread! You always have the best ideas and your work is so beautiful and meticulous! I have implemented many of your organizing ideas. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cards.
Wish i saw this last week when i struggled with stripes on a card. Thank you for the great tips i can use for next timev
I LOVE these cards Jennifer. You ALWAYS inspire me with new ideas!!! TYVM 💕
I absolutely can't wait to play with this idea. Thank you so much Jennifer.
Every idea was great but my personal favorite Tiny Tidbit picked up from today's video: Using the Misti corner to get layers lined up perfectly (I struggle with eyeballing it)! Thank you.
This is a great reminder to use those scraps! So inspiring Jennifer! Thank you for all your brilliant ideas! 💡
It was so fun to watch you make the beautiful card & envelope that came in the mail today! 💜 Thank you for brightening my day, my friend! 😘
I love you!! I just cut up scraps leftover from Christmas trees knowing that eventually I would look up on if your videos, and here you are!!!
This is one of the best creative videos. Thank you!
You always have the most brilliant ideas and tips! Thank you!
So I just rewatched this video... still love it! I'm thinking of doing something with strips for a craft class at my apartment building. It'll be a free class, so cost of supplies has to be low. Thankfully I've a ton of scraps ready to be used! Thank you so much for all of your wonderful ideas!
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial! Love finding creative ways to use scrap papers. All your cards are great!
Loved the ideas today for using up strips so goodness knows how many cards I will get from the strips I have amassed. Thank you again for sharing ideas and tips. Always learn something new each time I watch your videos.
Loved the scenery card made with different sets of strips.
Love love your cards. So therapeutic and always look forward to watching your videos!!!
Love these ideas for colored cardstock. So wonderful card examples. 😍
So I was late to the party on this video, but God’s timing is always right on point! I lost my mom in May. It’s been very hard on both my sister and I as this marked the 10th year since we lost our brother. Mom was an avid quilter. When you turned those last designs into a quilting look, I felt my heart leap! Mom had lived with me since 2013. Before COVID, my sister visited every 3 weeks. Since lockdowns started in 2020, my sister was only able to visit one time, although we video chatted and such frequently, it wasn’t the same as that loving touch she was able to get every three weeks. My sister is having an exceptionally difficult time and just this weekend told me that she is afraid she will forget the sound of mom’s voice or even her soft scent. Mom had exactly two extra unopened bottles of the perfume she had worn for as long as I can remember. I had planned to send one to my sister tomorrow as a surprise. And now I have the perfect card design to send along in the package. God had given me the message to write already, but I was struggling with the card. I actually made several cards today, but none seemed to visually convey my heart. Jennifer, I don’t even know how to express gratitude to you, and many others, for so generously sharing on KZread. I know it takes considerable time. I know you risk someone stealing your designs for their own financial gain. I know it makes you vulnerable to immense unkindness. I just wish I could hug all of you that share without hesitation and let you know that you are making a difference in this world. For the record, it’s not just cards you share. I’d say you’re truly Sharing Kindness! May God always bless you and yours!

First, I am so very sorry to hear that you lost your Mom and I am glad that this reminded you of her.
I am so happy you showed us how to get our strips straight using the grid or printer paper!! Thank you so much!

Wow! That butterfly inlay card and the Boho stencil card are phenomenal! For once, I ordered the products before seeing YOU use them haha! I knew this release was going to be fun!

WOW! This video is jam-packed with ideas! Thank YOU, Jennifer!
Beautiful cards! Thanks for sharing so many great tips!!
I notice the little things too! Like, a white shirt in the craft room? I love that you show us how to use bits and pieces and how to stretch our dies. I don’t know how you keep coming up with more ideas.
This is exactly the fu I have with quilting squared. Must try this and stitch as well. Fun stuff!
You are just amazing Jennifer. I would love to be able to be as creative and inspired as you. Bless you for sharing ♡♡♡
Jennifer you truly are amazing. I just cannot believe how much time and detail you put into your cards. I am an engineer also so I totally get being obsessive about some things.
