Love those three cards. Will have to buy those Faber Castel pens.
Always love your cards and your blog! These videos are fabulous. Makes my Monday! PB is lucky to have you. TFS your talent with us!
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing your talent and techniques with us. Lovely cards too!
Thank you so much for the video to go along with the cards. Just loved them and learned some new techniques – loved the “candy” – I’ll have to buy some.
Love this video, Jill! Your techniques are so great, how wonderful to have you demonstrate them for us! Love that name PB&J, too!
I’ve adored PB stamps for years and have many of them and within the last 6 months added Jill as a favorite and now you two are together, just like Peanutbutter and Jelly you guys are awesome!!! One of the things I love about the video is that Jill used the same set of stamps for all three cards…fabulous!!!
PB&J…I love it! 🙂 FABULOUS tutorials – it made my Monday too.
Loved the video and the cards. What a great new feature and the name is great! Jill is the queen of distress.
Thank you for such good clear and user friendly instructions. These videos are going to be a delish addition.
I really loved the techniques in these cards. Jill is definitely the distress inks queen! Inspired by the cards on her own blog, I have got myself quite a few distress inks and I can’t wait to try out these techniques. I absolutely loved the paisley backgrounds (tone on tone). The green one reminds me a lot of Indian henna designs! In fact, that dark moss green is called Henna color 🙂 Thanks for sharing these!
This is a lovely idea & much appreciated. The vibrancy of the flowers is amazing.

Wonderful video, Jill! I have often wished I could take one of your classes and so I am very
excited about this feature on the Penny Black blog. A big congrats, Jill– your talents are
certainly being recognized.
I enjoyed the video for these darling cards so much that I’d like to make some. However, I’ve searched & searched for the little ‘Candi’ paper pieces & cannot find them for sale on the net in the USA. Any suggestions where I might find them in my country?
Thanks, Margaret for your sweet comments! Just emailed ya–hope it helps! 🙂
