Exciting news: Paper Crafter's Library

You may remember that back in January,
I was asked to be a guest designer on the Paper Crafter's Library blog.

Well, in February, Andrea Walford, of Paper Crafter's Library contacted me and asked if I would be interested in making videos for PCL.

Now, I have to say, I was very super honoured to be asked, but I didn't have a camera that could take videos, so I didn't think it would work. 

Then, shortly afterwards, I took Jonah to our local computer/appliance store 

because he wanted to figure out how to get Mods for Minecraft. 

While he was doing this, I started browsing the clearance table.... and happened upon a $180 Pentax camera that takes video for $20! 

Needless to say, I snatched it up immediately!

So, to make a long story short, I've started making some videos, 

which you can see exclusively at Paper Crafter's Library. :)

What is Paper Crafters Library? 

The best way to describe it is it's a video tutorial based website that provides tons of lessons, 

videos, tutorials, PDF’s etc on everything pertaining to the paper crafting world… 

It doesn’t matter whether you are a cardmaker, scrapbooker or altered items designer, 

there is something there for everyone. 

You are taught various techniques and how to make the best use out of your products. 

There are over 1600 videos in the library right now! 

It is a membership based program, so be sure to click here to check it all out! 

This collage features some of the projects I have made exclusively for Paper Crafters Library.

 With each video, you also receive a PDF complete with directions and supply lists. 

It really is quite the site and definitely worth checking out…. 

The videos are broken up into different categories for easy searching/viewing 

if you are looking for something specific. 

You can also sign up for the member newsletter and it will email you each week 

all of the new lessons that have been added throughout the week.

They have really thought of everything!

I hope you will check them out and let me know what you think. 

If you're interested in reading about their story and how they all came about, click here.

If you do decide to sign up, I would very much appreciate it if you would use THIS LINK, 

or click on the badge over on the right sidebar. 

It lets them know that you came from my blog.

Thanks for looking!

Great news X 2

I have two very exciting things to share today....

First up....

I was thrilled to be asked by Paulina Nakamura of Pretty Pink Posh to join her design team!
I've loved being on Paulina's 10 Minute Craft Dash DT for the past six months.
While I was saddened by the fact that she won't be continuing with the Craft Dash Challenges,
I was happy when she asked me to be on the DT for her shop!
She's awesome and I'm super glad to be able to keep working with her!

Here are the rest of the PPP designers:

Lisa Elton
Joni Nina Andaya
Maureen Merritt
Stacey Schafer

Paulina has the sweetest embellishments in her shop, including this fabulous kit,
some of which I used on today's card.

Here's my card:

I was inspired by the card that Ashley made for this week's Make It Monday.
I loved how she added the sequins to her tree, so I decided to create a card using the same technique.
(Note: I also used her Angled Backgrounds technique,
so I'm linking this card up to this week's Make It Monday.)
I used PTI's Mighty Oak cover plate to die cut my tree, with some SSS woodgrain card stock.
The sentiment is from PTI's Happy Trails.
The patterned paper is Fancy Pants' Beloved.
And, like I said before, the sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh. :)

I'm also super excited & honoured to be asked to be a
Featured Artist/Designer on the Paper Crafter's Library!

Here's a peek of the card that I have featured there today...

Thanks for looking!
