First Video

Well I have plunged into the world of making crafting videos. Eeek! My first one is more of a demo showing Pan Pastels which I had used on this set of cards I made for the Hero Arts Blog Hop in January.


I had some questions about the product I used to get these vivid colours so here's my video to show you.




Here's the card using the Hero Arts Classic Fabric Design.

For the next two cards I used the chalks to colour the Hero Arts Engraved Flower.

The background for both cards was done by a fun "kissing" technique showcased at Hero Arts here.


For more info, the Pan Pastel website is here. There are links there to find retailers around the world.

In the US, Dick Blick carries them here.

In Canada, you can find it at Curry's here.

Thanks for stopping by!
