I made a technique video which resulted in a color theory faux pas (I thought that I could be bold with my color choices, but that decision came around to bite me in the butt!). Instead of re-shooting, I'm showing you the original video. Maybe it'll help you realize that everyone makes mistakes, but hopefully you'll still leave having learned a trick or two.
Watch the video below, or in HD on YouTube
Here's the new and improved card....you'll have to watch the video to see the dud!! :)
I seriously love your videos. They are so fun and you explain things so well. When you did the pointing and the original card appeared I clapped and giggled like a kid. You are awesome, and your card is totally awesome too. :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW I miss the 'Awesome video' screen at the beginning!!
BTW I totally have all those glitters too. Will do a comparison with you someday! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's one's not such a dud...but I loved both your original card and this blue/green one, as well.
ReplyDeleteBurnishing with glitter would be one of my favourite techniques. There's nothing wrong with the card on your video, it can be salvaged! Thanks for enabling Jennifer!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for showing how to do this. I love the idea and I too have all those wonderful glitters from Martha Stewart. I'm glad I'm not the only one who has colour ideas that dont work so perfectly but the good thing is there is always a way to use something that didnt quite work at first. Never throw anything away either.
ReplyDeleteGreat video! Love the tips and the technique in general.....I will need to go get me some more glitter!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your video Jennifer, wonderful technique! I have many Martha Stewart glitter and I don't know what to do with that, but after see your video, I have a light bulb :D....Thank you so much for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteYou are an EXCELLENT teacher (of course you are...you're a professional)! LOVE your card and your video!! Thanks for sharing how you make this amazing card!
ReplyDeleteGirl, I love your honesty!! This technique is uber cool and would be so fun to try! Way to make the best of a boo boo - I love it either way!
ReplyDeleteStunning! Thanks for the video...great technique that I will have to try!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your video!!!! I love seeing your scrap paper, too! It's like getting a peak at behind the scenes work you've been doing. I feel totally inspired to try this glitter technique!!!! You rock♥
ReplyDeleteI love your card, but I love your "dud" more. I REALLY like being able to see that someone as brilliant and talented as yourself can and does make mistakes... or at least makes things that they don't really like! I don't think the first card is bad, but I definitely like your second take! Great job :)
ReplyDeleteJennifer, I so enjoyed your video! I appreciate you showing the learning curve to Making the PERFECT card! But you know, the not perfect one was really wonderful, too! And I am glad you are going to "salvage it"! I am so glad I found your blog!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the video, Jen! The technique is very cool! Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteGreat video, Jen! Can't wait to try out this technique!!
ReplyDeleteGreat video & beautiful cards - even the one you weren't happy with is lovely!
ReplyDeleteYour videos are amazing!! You are such a natural! I wish I could keep scrap papers (like your printer paper) like you do...I throw them away left and right!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I think we have the same glitter set. I too bought it on sale, and it was a huge pack.
one last thing, I thought your card in the video looked pretty cool, and as you said, if you hide the splotchy area with a sentiment, it would look fine. The pink to white area looked great!
you are such a natural in front of the camera. I feel like a loser now with my videos. Gonna have to get more professional, but I can't stop saying um...
ReplyDeleteTotally awesome technique, video and tutorial...thanks for sharing. x
