Fast Friday Thank You Card


I'm back everyone with a Fast Friday Thank You Card! I used my new favorite SEI Windsor velvet pattern paper. I know...I know...you're probably saying, "Use something else!" I'm going to try to put it away for a while, but first wanted to pair it with this rich purple velvet ribbon. I made a ribbon flower and that was the hardest part!

Tonight, I worked hard filming the "How I Stamp Guidelines" video and well, I was a bit long-winded. So, I'm going to have to shoot a faster clip this weekend. This is going to be harder than I thought! I'm surprised I didn't totally goof, but it was just LONG...16 minutes worth and I have to cut it to 5 minutes. So, I have a lot more prepping to do to make it look like it's done, similar to those cooking shows!!

I'll be back tomorrow with a color challenge posting. I made a card tonight for it, but mmmm not sure if I like it! :) Have a great weekend!

Hello, thought i would let you know that apparently vimeo allows longer video, as does blip tv. I do not know much about any of them, but here is someone's synopsis.

I have never uploaded video, so I do not know anything about the process, but it seems that at least you would not have to edit so much!!

Can't wait to see the video.
