Janet has participated in numerous solo and group shows and enjoys these opportunities to see, first hand, that spark of connection her art can make with its audience.
'25-Year Journey' was commissioned as a wedding anniversary gift: a beautiful reflection of their time together as a couple.

Amazing Puzzles
The whole package is my most important reason for the five stars ... from the beautifully crafted box, to the library type card for puzzlers to sign, the card with the list of pieces to find along the way and of course the wonderful puzzle itself that is so lovely to put together and watch the colours become the art work that it is! Then sit back and see where some of those specials shapes are in the art itself! Nice job StumpCraft! I've had a hand in putting four of your puzzles together and enjoyed everyone. Thanks, Lynn
A Wonderful Experience
My neighbours received this puzzle as a Christmas gift. They passed it on to me and I was thrilled - what a wonderful experience it was, completing my first Stump Craft puzzle. The puzzle was incredibly well made and was challenging, without being frustrating. I am now a Stump Craft fan. Thanks!
Exceptional Puzzle!
What an exceptional puzzle. Not only was it fun and challenging, it was very well made. Each piece was cut perfectly and the pieces fit together so well. My first puzzle made by Stump Craft and now, I'm buying my second. Thank you so very much!
