Hello everyone,
I’ve been playing with my new toy, and am delighted to have a video to show you today. I hope you like it.
just a few things… (disclaimers if you will..)
-This is my first attempt, I don’t expect to be able to produce something amazing first time round, so please don’t be put off if it isn’t as good as what you would like
– I don’t have a camera tripod or rigging set up yet. I have big plans to make my own DIY rigging, but this was made by balancing the camera on a piece of wood that I had wedged between my stomach and the table. I had to reach around it to work, so it isn’t ideal.
– Also, i didn’t have any lights on except the normal craft room light, which gives the video a yellowy tint. I am aware of it and plan to fix this as best as possible.
– Isn’t it weird to hear your own voice!!
so all in all, I know that there is room for improvement, but i hope you still like the card I made, and enjoy the video. Please leave me a comment so i can feel encouraged, and will persevere as this video stuff is still really new to me and takes me ages to make, edit and upload.

How lovely Lesley – never would guess this is your first one. It’s better than some ‘pro’ ones I’ve watched on the Tube 😉
Aww thank you Carmen, you sweet little Duckie!

GREAAAT card! very inspirational! I would have never of guessed that was your first video!
Hi Lesley,
Loved the card!! Need the stamps!! Where do I find Gaia?
Thanks,

HI terri
The stamps are made by a french company called ‘Gaia’ and i bought them on holiday in a scrapbooking shop called ‘le temple du scrap’ – they have a website but i cant see any Gaia stamps on there now. I bought the hearts and the butterfly sets – both can be found here – http://www.idcreatives.fr/boutique/liste_produits.cfm?type=49&code_lg=lg_fr
the bad news – its in french. if you click at the top left (Enregistrez-vous) to register, then you should be able to buy then hopefully without too much issues with translation, ive checked the terms and they do ship internationally.
bon chance!
