New YouTube Channel

10 Comments

I’ve decided to open a YouTube channel in addition to my blog and Instagram platforms.  In my very first video I show how to use modeling paste, I talk about some new Crafter’s Workshop products and give a tutorial on a stencil technique I developed using left over, or as I like to call it – craft overs, modeling paste and sprays.  You can find the Crafter’s Workshop products at Bluemoon Scrapbooking.

Please check out the video to see how I made the card shown below on my brand new YouTube channel.

I hope you like this video.  If you do (or even if you believe I will get better – lol), then please subscribe to my YouTube channel to get notified of new videos.
