Geri, I just love it when things fall together. It feels so good when it happens too. I’m glad that you enjoyed it.

Awe thanks Rachel. I knew when we met that we had a lot in common. It would be so great to take another class together again sometime soon.

Terry, You're so very welcome. I’m so glad you like them. I love this community and all the friends I’ve made in it. I’ve learned so much from and appreciate the opportunity to give back.

Shel with your skills I know you could! I def recommend watching Paula’s video to learn the folds. She makes it easy. Can’t wait to see your take on them.

Jean, Thats one of the things I love about mixed media, being able to take something you’ve learned from one craft and applying it to another. You never know how it going to work out and sometimes you get a wonderful surprise.

Aimeslee, I especially love working with the thin tissue Washi paper for that very reason. Always happy to share. Hugs...

Awe thank you Anne. I enjoy making things that have motion in them. I’m planning on taking the next step and making a Chinese Thread Book as soon as I get some free time. If you’ve never seen one, they are incredible.

Vicky-Anne. You just made my day. Thank you so much. I recommend that you follow the link to Paula Beardsall Krieg’s tutorial. It’s in real time and I found it easy to follow. Please share if you make one. I’d love to see it.

Ohhh, it makes me so happy to hear you say that. It would make a great present for grandkids. My Grandmother had a wallet that was based in a similar design and I still remember playing with it.

Thank you. I’m always looking for new ways to mix it up.

I bet that you two would make some beautiful pouches. Please share if you do😊

Carol, Who said anything about precision? 😂 I think the trick is to make it look like you’ve got a lot of precision. ...

Terri, I’m so glad I’m not the only one. No matter how hard I try I always seem to have ink on my hands. Even when I wear gloves, I somehow manage. Hmm maybe it’s osmosis😂. I’m glad you liked the boxes🙂

I love getting handmade gifts, but making them is even better. Thanks.

It really didn’t feel ambitious at the theme. Once I got into the groove, one thing led to another and things just flowed.... someday we’re going to have to get together again and make that happen!

Thanks so much Jackie for all of your kind words! I really do appreciate them. I never imagined that I would ever have my own stencils so it really is a pinch me kind of moment! Bear Hug back!

Awe thanks my friend! There is plenty that I do that doesn’t make the cut. But I consider them to be building blocks. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.... it also helps to surround yourself with some fantastically creative people like yourself. You’ve sparked some pretty good ideas😘.

Thank you so much. I used to do embroidery all the time as a kid and I’m having fun rediscovering it now. Thanks so much for your feedback.

I so enjoyed meeting you Peg and hope our paths cross again.

Rachel, thank you. I’ll have you know that I loved your panel so much that I went out a purchased a whole set of the Luminous paints. Started playing with them last night. So fun! Really glad to have met you. And if you ever go to Brimfield......😊

Tracey, thank you for the wonderful comment. I really appreciate it. Gwen has always had a huge influence on my work. She an absolutely amazing artist who is so generous in sharing techniques. I’m just loving her BoHo zgrunge style.

Kitty, thank you. I think we could have spent a whole week in class and still not have learned all of Gwen’s secrets. It was fun meeting you too. Hopefully we’ll cross paths again someday.
