It was fun to do something so personal. You need the Jars of Happiness, I create with that set almost weekly!

Thank you from Australia 🇦🇺 It’s so wonderful to have you all to help keep us busy in these challenging times. This is what I love about Blog hops, discovering new people and their work. Thanks for the fantastic inspiration, keep it coming💖
Thanks, Sharon! I hope to go to Australia some day. Hugs, stay safe!
The A2 dies would be what I’d love to have. I don’t have a lot of dies and I think those would be very useful as a base for my cards. Love your cards! Thank you for the opportunity to win!
Thanks, Gina! They are very helpful!
Thanks for sharing such cute cards!
Thanks, Dawn!
Beautiful cards showing off all these great products from Waffle Flower!
Thanks, Amy!
The floral card is beautiful! Does it fit in an envelope?
Thank you! I am going to need to make an envelope before it, it is just too large with the blossoms hanging over. I have an envelope punch board that I will use to make it.
Beautiful cards! I love all of the bright colors and the backgrounds on the Happy Birthday and rainbow cards. Thanks for the inspiration.
Elyse, your video highlights a couple products that I needed to see in action to appreciate. I currently am in the process of switching out some of my color mediums. With the current social distancing I’m finding time to identify my coloring products and inventory my stamps and dies. TYFS.
Yes, the silver lining of this is that most of us have a little more time to craft! Thanks, Denise!
I really like your cards. I know I will use some of your ideas. Thank you
Thanks, Christina!
Lovely cards!
Thanks, Julie!
I loved that you had categories. Very informative video too.

A delightful array of cards featuring your Top 6 selections! I especially adore the ‘squeeze’ and hugs cards; we could all use more of those (virtually, for the time being) these days. The A2 rectangles: going on my already long list immediately! Thank you for the smiles!

Elyse, your cards are all so sweet but I am determined to not purchase any more stamps until I get those basic WF products you shared! 🤣 I want the media mat first and then all of the water colour swatching sets they have. Those are such valuable sets to have in our crafty stash. TFS and stay well!
They are definitely great sets to have. Thanks, Teresa! Stay well!
Beautiful cards. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Debbi!
Super cute and fun cards! I’m crazy about the flower bouquet and the Jars of Happiness is one of my favorites too. I have a weakness for floral stamps.

Thank you for the inspiration.
Thanks, Ethan!
My fav card(s) of yours are the birthday girl with that flowery dress and the group of animals hugging! I have not invested in the WFC media mat but I do use their dies often! Especially the ovals and A2 ones. I bought the organization stamps /package set a long time ago but have never used them. I need to! It is brilliant.
Side note, we plan to retire to Ft. Worth soon. My FIL went to TCU and my son who is nine, loves all horned frogs related items! We all do. Craft on!
Small world 🙂 Thank you, and Go Frogs! 🙂
Enjoyed your video with your 6+ favorites and recommendations. Such great cards!
Thank you!
Wow! Beautiful cards…I really love your flower girl card…must get that stamp set. TFS and Happy 6th Anniversary Waffle Flower.
