The hardest techniques to learn was coloring, followed by masking and designing. The easiest technique was stamping, then embossing and die cutting.

The results of the survey show that Design, Stamping and technique information was the most frustrating things about card making. The easiest included die cutting and pattern papers. And the majority of people wanted to see techniques in the perfect Card Making Manual, followed by pictures and step by step instructions and design principles.

I really appreciate everyone who took the time to complete my Card Making Manual Survey! It has really helped me decide on the best layout and content for my manual.

Now on to the winner of my Giveaway! I used Random.org to find the winner:
