Gorjuss Snowman Card Tutorial


It was a steep learning curve, and I have to admit that I very nearly threw in the towel... but here it is... my first video tutorial!  

Be gentle!  ;-)


The stamp I've used, Gorjuss Snowman, is available from Craft-A-Lot.  And while you're there, check out the new Gorjuss stamps!  I sure hope Colleen's put some aside for me!


And now, for your viewing pleasure... ;-)



Thank you so much for visiting!  I really appreciate all the support I get through my blog and this wonderful crafting community.  :-)

  1. Wow! You did an amazing job. I love how you explained how to use the prisma colour pencils and I have never heard of 'masking film'. I really must use my Distress Inks too, which I've had 'forever'. This tutorial was so professionally done, Danielle. If this was your first, can't wait to see the next. Seeing I'm in the middle of my reports, I'll give you an A+ :)

  7. Firstly that card is just dang stunning. Secondly, you are a star, girl. Your voice is so nice to listen too (sorry - that came across a little creepy, didn't it?) and your video is so professionally made, the step by step instructions made me have so many ah-ha moments...

  19. Thank-you, Danielle! That was great. Of course, now you've shown me more things that I need... I love your snowman card, he's totally gorgeous! Are you able to add the name of that masking film to your list at the end? That looks very cool.

  20. I am so glad you did not throw in the towel Danielle. This is a great informative video that has given me lots of incentive to do more colouring. I look forward to more of your instructional videos.

  22. Hi Danielle! This is absolutely amazing. Your colouring is so perfect. I just have a quick question..I have some mask-it at home and have tried the same sort of technique you are using here. Though, when I stamp on to the mask-it using my usual memento ink, it tends to smudge reeeeal easy so I have lots of troubles cutting it out and then it still smudges onto my actual paper. Is it meant to be this smudgy? hehe. Any tips you can offer would be most appreciated!! Thanks so much :)

    1. Thanks Alyce! I did that too with Memento ink, but it just slides right off! So for stamping on the masking film, I use Stazon ink. In the video I used white Stazon because I couldn't find my black Stazon... lol.
