**This is post number THREE for today!! Make sure to scroll down and check out the other posts!**
OMGosh - I did two separate videos for this card - and it took me FOREVER to get them edited and uploaded!!
The editing and uploading process for a video takes HOURS - and (for me) after it's uploaded I have more editing to do as I add links and annotations and whatnot and all of that takes time - something of which I don't have much of (that's why I have started posting and uploading more on the weekends as that's generally when I have a leetle more free time - for now anyway *grin*). And doing two videos for one project took a lot more time than I originally thought - but they're done and I hope you guys like 'em!
I DO enjoy the process though (now that I've done so many the sound of my own voice doesn't bother me as much as it used to - neither does showing my face on camera. After a while I got used to it so yay for that!). And I am glad at the response I've gotten from my videos - it's nice to know that they are appreciated and that some of you are learning new things from them!
**Also - I've had people ask if it's OK to send their friends links to my blog, or to my videos or to my YouTube channel. Yup it's totally fine! I do all this to share it with you guys so if you want to share it with YOUR friends/family that is great!**
Now onto the card:
This uses the new Coriander fairy image from the Sweet November line that was just released at All That Scraps.
I stamped the image onto CCD White Cardstock then colored her in with Copic Markers.
That's where the first video comes in:

After coloring her I added Lime Green Stickles to her dress and Crystal Stickles to her wings.
I did a second video of me making the card. After my first card making video I got requests for more. For me this is a more difficult video to make as I pretty much fly by the seat of my pants when making a card.
I don't plan much ahead of time - sometimes I'll have an idea for a layout, or know what papers I'm going to use - but generally I just sit down and create. So trying to capture that on video isn't easy - especially when my videos need to be under 10 minutes in order to upload them to my YouTube channel!
So I have to get creative with the editing in order to fit it all in:

I said in the video - the sentiments are from my new Big Words and Handy Additions sets. Since I've got these sets and started using them I'm finding that I really love stamping the Big Words in colored ink and the Additions in black ink. It's something I had in mind when I created the sets - but it looks so much better in real life LOL!
This was the inside of the card. I didn't include it in the video b/c I already had well over 20 minutes (or maybe 30? I lost track) that I had to cut down to under 10 so I just left the camera off and finished the inside and decided to just post it here :o)
I die cut a piece of white cardstock with a scalloped rectangle die then stamped a sentiment from the Handy Additions set onto the bottom of it with the same Garden Green ink I used on the front.
I matted that with crown cardstock and added some more patterned paper to the inside of the card and that was it!
