Collage style card



I was watching a Facebook live hosted by Sarah Hardy a week or so ago and Sarah made a beautiful card that I wanted to try for myself.  Sarah is a very talented Stampin up demonstrator  and she makes the most wonderful cards.
During the fb live She reminded me that I used to make videos too.  I didn't make many because I had technology issues.  I was okay making the video but uploading it to my pc was a big problem. That was about 9 years ago and I haven't made a video since. 
Sarah suggested I start making them again so a week later I 've decided to reproduce her card using different stamp sets . There are a lot of techniques used in this  collage style card.
I left a week in between watching Sarah's video and making the card myself  because  I wanted to see just how much I remembered from her demo. The things you forget and the things you do differently make the card yours and not a direct copy.

 The first video  is just to show you how I did the colour wash it is not the piece I used on the card. I made the second video first then realised, I hadn't mentioned the washed background.



   I had a bit of a mishap towards the end and had to edit a section out. I think it would have been quicker to remake the video than edit it. But I stuck with it.  Once I had taken out the section and tried to upload the video to my blog , BUT....Blogger kept telling me the video was too large. Grrrrrrrr.  
 I  spent the next two days  trying out different programmes to find one that is simple to use and would  condense the video easily.  I managed it, but I really don't know how.

 Here are the  finished videos. 
 I don't have any editing skills so forgive my mistakes.   
 If I am honest I am really nervous about posting these videos. 
There are so many crafters making great videos that posting  this really scares me. 
Please be kind with your comments.
