A Magic Card video tutorial

      Several of you expressed the desire to have watched my tutorial on how to make this card, but I just couldn't publish it.  WAY to much of me flapping my gums.  LOL  I really think several of you just wanted a chance to get to chuckle at my twang, which by the way, I do NOT hear. LMBO  Well, you've gotten your wish and good or bad I've retaped the tutorial making the above card.  You can check it out here.  I've used another gorgeous Crafts and Me Sara Burrier image for this one.  She colored with Copics and a wee bit of Prismas.  The papers are Prima.
     Isn't that sentiment gorgeous!  It's one of Paulette's beautiful creations from Create with TLC.  She so graciously gives the most beautiful and witty freebies on her blog plus she has a store full of lots more.  To match the sentiment I printed out a beautiful verse of scripture from the Book of Psalms.  Those are the best shoulders I know to take on my burdens.  I hope you have that same reassurance.
      I tried to get a close up shot so you could see the dimension of the image.  She's popped up on foam, but I glued down her hand and foot so she looked more realistically perched on the ledge.  It didn't show up very well in the photo.  :-(
     Hope maybe you can get some help from the video if you'd like to try this card.  It's really super simple but gorgeous and unusual..  Thank goodness Marianne has such a creative mind!  :-)  Don't forget you can check out her picture tutorial right here.
     I'd like to enter this card at Make It Monday and the Oozak Challenge.  :-)
     Happy weekend!
