Some Wonderful Comments after I left Tonic Studios and Create and Craft. These were left for me on my Facebook page. Links are placed where I can, otherwise, comments are copied and pasted. My original post about me leaving is here - This was on FACEBOOK A lovely post with lovely comments on the Tonicaholics site on Facebook.
Guys. For anyone who isn't on Jo Austin's facebook page. It's with a heavy heart that I can confirm that she has announced that she has left Tonic. I think variety was wonderful and thoroughly enjoyed her style of demoing. I wish you well Jo. No matter what you do, you will shine and bring happiness to those around you.
For anyone wanting to wish Jo well, please feel free to pop a comment on this post.
Diane Mills Good luck Jo xxx
Vicky Woodham You will be sadly missed Jo, loved your demos & inspiration, good luck in you new ventures whatever they may be xx
Eileen Montgomery Aww that's a shame. I loved Jo and her crafting style. All the best for the future xxx
Mandy Homer I had a funny feeling she was, last time she was on c & c , her body language was different and when she was asked when she was back she said she didn't know. That said I wish her the very best of luck in whatever she does. Xxx
Jo Austin I only decided yesterday xx
Mandy Homer Will miss you, you always crafted with love. Good luck and best wishes, I'm sure you will shine and be brilliant. Xxx

Nicola Barnett Really sad to hear this Jo. U will be sorely missed xx
Jill Stoneham So sorry to hear this news, loved Jo's demos, wishing her luck and happiness for the future x
Lynne Nicholson Oh "Jostin" I'll miss you. First time I saw you was mid show and Dean was calling you Jostin it was several shows later I found out that wasn't your name. You are the reason I started my Tonic journey. I think because you made a mistake in putting the bits together but then corrected it. Made me realise I could do it and I didn't need to worry about mistakes. Good luck in your future venture.
Jo Austin You never need to worry about mistakes honey. We aren't perfect. Xx

Kate Rockett You'll be greatly missed Jo, but I'm sure it won't be long before we see you on our TVs again. What I love about your style of crafting is that there's none of this "celebrity crafter" persona about you, you're just like the rest of us crafters! Don't ever change xx
Claire Rhodes-Brandon That is so true of Jo, shed loads of talent and yet so humble and unassuming :)

Jo, you are far too lovely and talented to stay away for long.

I'm stunned Your cards are great - I don't ever think my cards will be that good. I've just started making cards, and have got loads of ideas - I just get frustrated when I can't make my ideas happen. My husband wants me to be a whizz and make all sorts of fancy pop up cards, but I feel hapier sticking to what I know works at the moment. Well done. Al

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello - I don't expect a reply to this email but I just wanted to tell you again how much I enjoyed your cardmaking demonstration last Saturday - I've only just started card making and have lots to learn - I wish I could come up with so many ideas. I get a bit of help from a friend who has been making cards for years but seeing your demonstration was inspiring. Anyway - thanks again. Regards, Janet ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Jo Thank you for a brilliant and interesting morning at Brigg today. As I explained I am very new to card making and would be interested in the details on the classes we discussed. During your demo you explained that the instructions for making the boxes are available on the internet, I would appreciate you giving me the site details, as you would expect I've forgotten already. Although I did manage to remember how to fold the stand up card and and flower petal and written myself some instructions since I got home. Many thanks again for a well presented demonstration. Kind Regards Margaret Pender ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hi Jo, thanks for the link to your blog - i LOVE how you have coloured in the Magnolia stamps - been and bought about 30 promarkers today after seeing how you have coloured the images in!!! Couldnt leave you any coments so thought I would email you instead. Hope the trip went OK - have a great weekend Jan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hello Jo I really enjoyed your demo at Brigg on Saturday, I got lots of great ideas and tips Thanks Ann Richardson ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Jo, This is Betty that came from near Worksop to see your demo at Brigg. Really enjoyed my day out and congratulations on a super demo. It was lovely to see you again at Harrogate and for you to remember me from all the people that you must meet. Sorry not to be able to chat to you on Sunday but I could see that you were busy catching up with other people. I have also enjoyed reading your blog and am absolutely shocked to hear that you have a lump!! This is just dreadful for you. Hope you are getting it seen too straight away. I understand that Rotherham Hospital are very prompt at dealing with these things!!! I send you all my love and best wishes for a quick recovery. Betty xxx ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ christine501 Posted: 06 April 2008 07:36:00 Hi Jo I'm so glad I came to see you yesterday, thanks for the folding lesson!! Your cards are inspirational! Maybe we will meet again sometime soon, I hope so Christine x ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.docrafts.co.u...&s=1&name=Card%20Making Do Craft Ddemonstrater Hi Every One, I just wish to give a Big Thank You to Joanne who did the Do Craft Demo at the Range Doncaster last Sunday. Joanne took the time & patience to explained each technique so that both beginners & more experienced crafters could understand, I had intended to just nip to pick up the goodies bag’s for my self & some friends, but ended up staying for nearly an hour, only problem I spent double the amount of money that I had planned to mmmmmmmmm just need to explain to hubby who Joanne is and why it’s all her fault she made me (HONEST) lol Many Thanks Grace ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ juliadon (3014 Posts) (19 gallery items) view my Gallery 14-May-2008 0:58 I have always found Jo to be very good and patient and sunday was just the same thanks Jo ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you very much for having the patience to show me how to use stamps today. I am hoping to have more confidence from now on with my own stamps . As I said to you it can sometimes be difficult to learn things without knowing other people who have the same hobby. I thought that some of your ideas were very good too. I hope that I can manage to achieve a good result when I try them out at home. I didn't get chance to buy much today as my husband was feeling poorly and wanted to go home, but I will be buying the cutters ,water pen and blending pen soon I hope. It would be lovely to see you again sometime. Perhaps you could come over to Barnsley when you are not busy , you are welcome to my home any time. Kindest Regards Jill Griffith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please see comment below. 'Hi everyone, Just wanted to say went to a demonstration at the wkend in Southport at The Range. the demonstrator there was Joanne Austin. What a lovely helpful person she was, she sent us away with many inspirational ideas and helpful tips, nothing appeared to be too much trouble for her. She is a credit to yourselves and all crafters everyehere...Our day just flew by. Thank you. Leigh' Hannah4 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just found this on the card making forum: Fab Demo I just want to thank Jo for a fab demo at Bolton Range today. She was really brilliant, very bubbly, lots of ideas, exactly what a demonstrator should be. There was a permanent crowd arond the table all day and everyone was enjoying themselves. Thanks Jo. Liz ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- an email from Saturday's demo** Hello Jo Thanks for such a super demo this afternoon at the Range. I really enjoyed it and am inspired to try the "concertina" cut out card tonight. Hope you had a safe journey home. Looking forward to your next visit and also seeing your demo on Create and Craft. Best wishes Kath Fox ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I must say, the girls were right in the range... you were very good, and i thoroughly enjoyed the demonstration you did. Could have sat there all day!! if it wasnt for me needing to get some food! i have to eat regularly, as i have a blood sugar problem. Well done! i look forward to trying some of your ideas tommorrow Looking forward to your reply Yours Kindly mandi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Thank you Jo, I had a lovely time watching your demo at The Range Doncaster today, and came away truly inspired (and a little poorer!). Thanks for your patient explanations and some great ideas - I came straight home and tried the ink on the embossing folder/debossed image technique you showed us - success! I think that will be a new favourite. Thanks again, Angela
