Beautiful Magnolias Technique Tuesday

Hi again,
My wonderful Parents have just celebrated their 55th Wedding Anniversary and I thought that I would share the card that I made for them.

I've used a mixture of techniques to make this card, some embossing, die cutting and a couple of different colouring techniques.

I've taken a close up of it and hopefully you can see the shimmer on the flowers. I've also used the new frames dies and embossing folders which pair together to make 2 different frames, they are absolutely fabulous, and once you get the hang of lining them up they are easy to use.  I'll try to put together a video showing how to use them in the next few days.

That's all from me for today,

Happy Stamping

Did someone mention You Tube???

Hi Everyone,
 I hope you are all enjoying the warmer weather and getting lots of crafting done inspired by the sun?

Here at the Crafty Yellow Camper HQ I've been in a dither...... I made a promise to myself at On Stage  in April that I would get to grips with You Tube, I know how to watch it, search it, and loose hours at a time on it, BUT I hadn't ever recorded or uploaded to it.

I've had my tripod for my mobile phone sitting in a drawer for a few months now so thought it was about time that I dusted it off, yes it's been several months!, and have a go at filming etc. So, I've made a 3 part video on making this card and if you get a spare few minutes I'd be honored if you'd hop over to you tube and give it a look.  There's no mystery to why it's in 3 parts and they aren't long videos, i just haven't got the hang of pausing instead of stopping when I'm recording as I can't see the screen!
If you don't watch You Tube you can also see the videos on my Facebook Page, The Crafty Yellow Camper.

Here is the finished card, happy viewing!
