YouTube - my first video for a while

My first YouTube video for a long time - and I am showing all the stash that was piled up on my crafty table in my last blog post ....

and I nearly missed out the bag of goodies from the CraftWorks !

(Getting this video created and edited has been several hours over several days - and more than once I was very close to giving up entirely!  However, I am stubborn - and didn't want to lose all the video I filmed.  I had purchased a very good video editing software in the past, Filmora, but that was with an old email address, so now I need to try and access my account again.  Therefore, I tried a few different free video editors, but they either had very steep learning curves, or in the case of iMovies on my iPad, I did not have enough storage space left to upload it.  Eventually I found that there is a very good Video Editor on Windows 10, and that saved the day.  This video is 'rough and ready', and I will get more professional as time goes by, but at least you get to see my stash and my craft room.  Getting music to add to just the start and finish titles was a step too far today!  I will also be adding subtitles.)

WOYWW 614 - adding to my Crafters Companion 'A Year of Craft'

Morning, everyone - from a windy and wet Pembrokeshire.  Hope everyone is happy and that March is being kind to you so far.

I have some new additions to my craft room in the past week.   There has been some crafty projects finished (Thank You cards and ATCs).  Check out my Instagram for photos of those (@aliwadedesigns).  I also show my progress in my latest Diamond Painting project over there.

I bought a bag of random wood shapes from Etsy to do some different pyrography projects.  I also saw one of the latest Facebook Lives by Craft Buddy with their latest stamp sets for  crystal art (aka diamond painting), and couldn't resist the set with the daffodils (my favourite flowers).  I bought the main set of drawers for the Crafters Companion 'A Year of Craft' at the beginning of the year, and they promised further additions.  I happened to turn on Create & Craft last week, and there it was - another layer, and perfect to create my Mothers Day and Easter cards.

Lets get straight to the photos.

I am going to create the teapot-shaped card for my Mum today - and will do a separate blog post.

Edited to add - here is the finished card.

Definitely going to be keeping indoors for today and tomorrow, until this storm has passed.
