    When I hear you talk, I think of how gracious you are and so easy to listen to. When you do mindless crafting, do you realize that what you are doing turns into a "happening," which is old style Hippie talk from the 60s? I've had a few "happenings" come about from time to time and it's like it was all effortless, no work and as though someone else was creating things. They turn out to be my favorite pieces of all and give the most satisfaction. It's like that when watching you all the time! :D

    Hi! I love to watch and sometimes just listen and glance if I am in pain and can’t watch continuously...It is so relaxing. Crafting itself is relaxing to me. You have great ideas and for recycling as well! I count you as an online crafting friend! Have fun! Do more!

    First timer here. I'm surrounded by a lot of crafty items and was looking for something to fill my time. I made a belly band earlier today (a challenge with specific items to include) and now have cut some tag bases to work on your ideas. The nicest thing about this video was listening to you "talk to me" across the table, it was like having a friend join me.

    Loved your creative and beautiful designs. You not only make it easy to watch but your instructions and voice are just so soothing. I can't wait to watch your other tutorials (especially the paper flowers, beautiful). I want to do it all but I need to only do one a week right now or I won't be going to work. I love crafting and I am glad I found your tutorials. Thank you for taking the time to teach. I want to one day open a craft store of crafts made from trash (not really trash but recycled goods). I am a girl scout leader and one thing to teach the girls is recycling. What better way than with crafts. Thank you!

    Thanks for so many cute ideas. I work with senior citizen ladies and this is one of our projects for the coming holiday season. Your creative tags don't require so many fancy emblies to work with, but they always come out so darn cute. I also feel so relaxed when listened to you, your voice has such a calming effect, thanks again and God bless.

    I just discovered you while watching the State of the Union speech. I love the fact that you use your scraps and don't depend on the fancy tools most of us paper craft artists depend on. These are perfect for the people who don't have a ton of money to spend. Perfect for donating to nursing homes or senior centers and teaching them how to make pretty things out of pretty much scraps.

As i listen to you i feel like I'm listening to myself.. Not the voice> just the things you say such as the dog in the background, husband making noise in the kitchen..Why cant they be quiet when they prepare and eat? Banging cabinet doors etc..LOL I cleaned my entire Artroom and organized EVERYTHING...then i started working and KABLAM!

    Thank you for the inspiration. You got me into "stitching" and it really makes the tags and embellishments look so professional and beautiful. Please keep them coming .
