If you’ve ever said “I’m not creative” you’re in the right place!

Hello, I’m Jessica Taylor and I’ve been helping people make their own greeting cards for over 20 years!

I especially enjoy helping women who say “I could never do that, I’m not creative.” discover that they CAN make cards that look good. My “there are no mistakes in stamping” attitude allows for a fun environment for learning card making.

On this channel, you'll find videos where I share card making tips and techniques using supplies that can be purchased from my online store at shopinkitupwithjessica.com

Ready to make handmade cards? Make sure to subscribe and leave a comment on a video saying hello.

Happy Stamping!

    I find the new format confusing, but change is good. I like the card sketches and the addition of the ephemera ( e fem era). Online shopping is moving forward for SU. More product can be offered online as I keep reminding my ladies. If you use the silicone mat for the liquid glue you can paint small die cuts to adhere them to your project

    Jessica, what a sweetheart you are! I love your emails. LOVE my catalogs! I always look forward to the new one!! My first one is 2006! I am sorry but I really do NOT like this last one! Just isn’t a catalog, more like a magazine. Also, I don’t like to refer online for more. My catalogs are so rag tag with notes and bookmarks. The new one just doesn’t work!

    Thank you Jessica! That was a fun go-through with your thoughts and ideas. Yes, I love Stampin' Up and you! There are some good ideas in this catalogue and how they organized it. I think you need to go through a few times to notice all the things you pointed out. But that's the fun of it! 😉I'd have to say, one of my favourite bundles has been Seaside Wishes - it's incredibly versatile and the embossing folder is absolutely stunning.

    I really appreciate your walk thru of this catalog. It is not my favorite. I find it very hard to find products which makes it frustrating to shop. Your information was very helpful. Thanks for keeping it relatively short. My attention span is about 30 minutes.

    Thanks for your feedback Kathy, I really appreciate it. Most items are easy to find when you shop the online store, especially when you select "Shop Products' from the Menu because it divides things up into categories.

    I must say I do not love this catalog. I am older and have sight problems so some of the images such as white on pastel and vice versa are difficult for me to see clearly. And I don't like having to page through the catalog to find adhesives, tools, etc. I prefer the old layout where each were shown in sections. I do like the tips and card sketches and of course, card layouts. The index print is very small. Not sure I like being referred to the online store to see more of something, I prefer to see it in the catalog. Perhaps I am just showing my age. Thanks for your look-through of the catalog. I did enjoy that.

  • @inkitupwithjessica

    Change is hard. And so is seeing some of the things in this catalog, I agree! I also prefer the old layout with sections and like items grouped together. In the past, I used the catalog as a reference tool and I can't really do that anymore. But I also like seeing how different products go together as they are shown in this catalog. Online stores are a sign of the times and they are easier to add new products to on a regular basis. Thanks for looking through the catalog with me and letting me know your thoughts!

  • @inkitupwithjessica
    @inkitupwithjessicaАй бұрын

    I don't have any spellbinders 3-D emboss folders but have you tried it with the same sandwich that I used here for the Stampin' Up! 3-D folders? Base Plate - Folder - Specialty Plate. If your sandwich is too thick to go through your machine that way, try Base Plate - Folder - Clear Plate and if that's too thin to emboss your paper, try adding a few extra sheets of card stock on top of your sandwich until you get the embossed depth you like. Hope that helps!

    Hope the crick in your neck is feeling better! There can be a variance in the weight of card stocks but most work well for card bases and all will work for mats. Glad you were able to rewatch the video to figure out where you went wrong in your notes. Replays are a wonderful thing!

  • @inkitupwithjessica
    @inkitupwithjessica4 ай бұрын

    The roller isn't moving at all or it isn't grabbing your sandwich? Make sure you try staggering your plates and sometimes it can help if you change where you are putting pressure from the top while you're holding it. Sometimes I put a little pressure to gently tilt the machine just a little bit towards myself and then it will grab the sandwich better.
