I'm super shy and have pretty much always stamped alone, so it felt a little weird talking to myself on the video. {grin} Hopefully I didn't ramble too much, or go off frame for too long. I'll try to get better and more frequent with videos. (And learn how to zoom out at the end). :)
Other than the stamping and the bow, I designed the entire card live on the video (about 15 minutes). The stamps are from the Small Packages set and I die cut the frame with the coordinating Cupcake Frame Die Set. The distressing was done with two shades of distress ink, a paper distressing tool, a bit of water and a paper piercer. All in all, a quick little heartfelt thank you card.
The video tutorial is embedded below or you can view it directly on my YouTube channel. If you like it, be sure to give me a thumbs up and let me know what types of things you'd like to see in future tutorials. :)
