10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge #20

Hey everyone – been a busy week here for me so haven’t crafted as much as I’d like!  Would love to not have to go to work!!!

I’ve made another little You Tube video for the 10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge over at Pretty Pink Posh – this time the colours are pink, yellow and grey – gorgeous combination!

I went for the brightest pink I could think of – Neon Pink from Hero Arts along with Butter Bar and Smokey Shadow (Papertrey Ink).

Here is my video and the final card:

The sentiment I’ve chosen is totally wrong – I wish I had picked a more bold, solid font but hey ho!!!

Thanks for stopping by.  My weekend is going to consist of packing and loading the caravan ready for us to head off on Wednesday to the Glastonbury Festival!!  So excited about it – really hoping for no rain though, lol!!  Not sure sure what the chances of that are in England in the height of summer!!

Cheerio for now,

Craft Haul Video # ONE

So I made another You Tube Video!!  After getting over the nerves of the first one I did for the 10 minute craft dash (see the post below) I thought I’d make a haul video.  I just received an order from Simon Says Stamp and in the same week (happy happy happy) Steph sent out the new dies for previously released stamp sets from Clearly Besotted.  I am known for being a bit of a blether so if you do decide to watch it – feel free to fast forward through all the gabbing!!!!

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,

10 Minute Craft dash #19 – and first YT video!!!!

Hello!  I’m here with a card for the current 10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge over at Pretty Pink Posh.  This is the first time I’ve played along but it was LOADS of fun and I can’t wait to do it again!!

I also thought it was a great time to make my first ever You Tube Video!  I have been pondering for a while about doing one and recently bought a sweet little pocket camcorder just for the purpose!  I love watching crafty videos on YT and have seen quite a few made for the Craft Dash challenge so this is what finally made me take the leap from thinking about it to doing it!

Here’s are the colours for the challenge :

And here is my video and the card I created :

As you can see I couldn’t resist adding the sequins – I guess that means I failed the challenge doesn’t it?  My 13 year old tech-expert son told me – I am a total “noob” (?) when it comes to this so hopefully with a bit of practice I will be able to offer a slightly more polished performance in future videos!!!  I won’t have my head in so much for one thing, lol!!

I am actually working on my next video already – a craft haul I got today from Simon Says Stamp!!

See you soon,
