Congrats Beate! 75K is something to be proud of. :D

As for tutorials. . . . Can you do a tutorial on how to get a 3.5 y/o DS to eat his meal in a reasonable amount of time???? J/K! (Sort of) ;D I love to see all the different folds for cards, I’m just usually too scared to try them; so I’ve never tried the explosion box.

 
 
Lois Michael Says:

Congratulations on all your hits. Any type of fancy fold cards or boxes would be great.

 
 
Louise Says:

What wonderful blog candy and congratulations! I would like a tutorial about how to use a brayer and an inkpad. What kind of brayer? What kind of inkpad? How do you ink it up correctly? And how do you clean it after using it? Thanks for being so generous with your time and ideas.

Allison Says:

You are the queen! I did your triangle tri-fold last night (finally) and I love them! (It’s great for me to make smaller cards since I have all these ridiculous little envelopes that need to go!) I would love to see more tutorials on similar ideas (i.e., cards with special folds, openings, etc.)…I don’t have any specifics but that’s why you’re the queen! Cheers! Onward to 100K!

Jessica (jessrose21) Says:

How exciting, Beate! It’s so nice of you to share with us as you celebrate. Thanks! I was reading through the comments and I agree with Renee who suggested a tutorial on design elements. It’s always interesting to get artists’ interpretations and tips on that.

 
 
Amy Hoogstad Says:

Wow Beate, I certainly understand why you would get so many hits. You are a very talented lady and a true inspiration especially to a lot of Canadians.

Take care and God bless.

michelle rose Says:

I would love to see the new nuggetbox tutorial from the New Mexico Regionals! I saw the picture on the SU website and fell inlove right away, but wasn’t sure how to make it. You amaze me with how you can figure those things out!

 
 
Dawn N Says:

Congrats on hitting 75,000! I’d love to see you do a “Step it up a Notch” tutorial. Start with a simple but nice card. Then step it up with one or two small details or additional stamping. Then finally take the second card up still another notch for the ultimate bling! The key is that each card must stand alone on it’s own merit and is a nice looking card unto itself.

Can hardly wait for you to hit 1/2 million mark. Betcha it’s just around the corner! Thanks for a great website!!

Congrats on the skyrocketing numbers!! I love your ideas…they really are fresh and fun. The explosion box tutorial would be great or something about using pearl-ex on a card.

Hi Beate, I’m way down here today. I would love to see a tutorial on using markers to fill in outlines with color. I don’t like the way SU’s marker come out. Yesterday on a blog the Prismacolor markers were used and it was fantastic. Do you think there is a special trick to usings SU’s? Thanks for asking.

Congrats on all your hits! I love all your projects and your tutorials are so well written and easy to follow. Being a relative stamping newbie I would love any tutorial that you want to share.

Wow, you are SOOOOO popular!!! I would love ANY tutorial, but I NEED one on brayering backgrounds and making them look really integrated…no lines, etc….but I’m sure everyone else already has this down pat! I’m a little behind! LOL The explosion box would be terrific!!! :)

Way to go on the BIG hits! That’s awesome! I would love any tutorial - they are all so helpful to me since I’m a visual learner (more or less). And I never know that I “NEED” to learn something new until I see the example and the tutorial - then it’s great!
I love that you offer so many prizes on your blog - keeps us coming back for more, especially love the cards you post! Thanks so much for sharing!

Love your helpful hints, and a tutorial on that cute little coaster album that was highlighted in the April edition of OnStage would be great! It’s probably very simple, but you deconstruct things in such a way that they’re very easy to figure out! Thanks so much for all you do, and blog candy too! We’re blessed!

 
 
Rosella Says:

Have a great time in San Antonio. Great place!

I love your cards. They are my inspiration. I would be interested in the explosion box with multiple boxes.

 
 
pjbstamper Says:

I don’t want to see another tutorial here! I wanted to see one in person while I was in Tampa, but no! You decided a trip home to Germany was more important then a mini reunion of friends. Where are your priorities anyway????

(note: I decided that perhaps guilting you in to picking me to win the goodies might work better then the chances of getting my number drawn. Did it work?)

 
 
Sarah Says:

I too, would love to see an explosion box tutorial. I’m not even sure what it is but am always willing to learn new things! Your tutorials are so easy to follow. You do a great job instructing others.

The expolsion box would be awesome. I really learn everything from your tutorials so if you have done it I probably haven’t tried it so whatever you do will be wonderful! I love the blog so keep it up!

 
 
Sheri Thomas Says:
