No card today, but a video instead

No card from me today as I have not been able to grab my photo’s off my camera as my Photoshop has gotten corrupted somehow.  After spending hours on Google it appears that CS3 is BAD news, lots and lots of problems so now I need to go and get another edition of Photoshop.  Me no happy!!  So I will not get my card up till the weekend when I can go and get another.  

So, instead of my hAnglar card I thought I would share the Copic and Prismacolor video that I made a few weeks ago.   I am not Copic certified or have any Copic qualifications at all, all I know is self taught so please forgive any errors as I have made the video as I colour and it works for me :)  I have had to split it into four parts to get it on You Tube (what a journey of discovery that turned out to be lol).

Hi Bev
thank you for the FANTASTIC tutorial's, it's so good of you to take time out (in your very busy life), to show us how to colour our images. You have made it look so easy, and it was sooooooooo good to see that you sometimes go over the lines (and how to correct it, when you do) lol.
once again a HUGE thank you Bev.
hugs

Fabulous videos Bev, I so enjoyed watching you color! Can't believe this was your first, you did an excellent job, I hated it to end. Thanks so much for doing this, I so hope you'll do more!

Diane said...

Fantastic videos, Bev and thank you so much for taking the time to make them. You did a brilliant job of zooming in on the image allowing us all to see the detail of the colouring! It was also very useful to see how you used the Prismacolor pencils - I think I need a little less of them in my images!

Karen said...

Hi Bev, thank you so much for taking the time to make these really helpful videos. So much better when you can actually see something being done rather than just read how to do it. I think you will be the Delia of the crafting world so I had better go and order some Copics while they are still available :-)
I love following your blog and all your cards are amazing and give lots of inspiration. Thank you.
Happy Crafting

Helen said...

Hi Bev, thanks for taking the time to make these videos. I have just watched them all (nice to hear the dog snoaring in the background; I got surround sound as mine are sleeping on the coach and doing the same). These are really very helpful. Did already a course with copics, but learning every time again from people like you. I guess I just have to practice a lot. Thanks for a fabulous job done here. Hugs from Holland, Helen

A wonderful tutorial, Bev. I'm still a novice stamper and I use Promarkers not copics but seeing your videos I think I may be able to apply your techniques to develop my colouring skills. Using Prismas pencils has really brought the image to life, too. Many, many thanks for the time and effort you've put in.

Janie Printz said...

Hi Bev, you've certainly made my day with this amazing video !!! I've wondered how to use the Prisma pencils that finish your wonderful cards off so beautifully & now I see how you blend them to perfection. Absolutley the best tutorial/video I've seen to teach this wonderful technique ...
I don't see how you find the time to share your talent with us but certainly hope this is the 1st of many inspirational videos. They are much appreciated ...
Hugs, Janie

What a treat!! Thank you for helping a beginner understand more. I absolutely enjoyed your videos plus getting to hear your lovely voice. Thank you kindly!

Hunnybunnycards said...

Hi Bev, thank you so much for the videos, really really enjoyed watching them and learned alot! You make it look so easy and love the way Copics can be blended with the Prismas. Sweet to hear Ebony snoring too, lol!!

Huge thanks again Bev, you are one talented and generous lady.

Hugs, Barbarax

Tracy said...

Thanks so much for posting these videos Bev! I was really wanting to know more about using the Prismas with the Copics and you explained it so well. hugs!

Sue said...

Hi Bev, Thanks for sharing! Great videos. I have just bought some Prismacolor Pencils so it was good to get some tips!

Hugs Sue xx

Kelly said...

Thank you so much Bev! The videos are fantastic

Paula said...

Outstanding Bev. I was glued. The use of highlights & colouirng only small areas at a time, plus the dabbing I found really helpful as one hears so much about the circular motion but I find the dabbing/stoke action far easier. I have never seen how to add the pencil shading & love how it makes the image really 'pop.' Thank you so much for doing this - really invaluable to see it being done whilst being talked through it.
Hope your health is improving.
Much love & thanks.

Natali said...

Thank you so much for share this vidio with us. It is fantastic!! I have no Copic (and Promarkers as well) yet, but I hope one day will have it. Imiges with color markers are just "a live". You have "gold hands"!! You are natural talanted!! I love absolutely all you cards.. (but cannot write comments every time becouse my English quite pure)..
Thanks again. Hugs. Natali

Sharon Peele said...

Ohhhh all my Christmasses have come at once LOL - this is absolutely what I've long been hoping for, but didn't want to ask you to do as you're SO busy. Just perfect for those like me, who're endlessly frustrated to the point of almost giving up before even getting properly started. Thanks SO much Bev.
