The Stamp Basket YouTube Channel

Hi

I was really honoured to be asked by Janet at The Stamp Basket if I would produce a series of Video Tutorials. Of course, I was happy to oblige and I am really excited to announce the launch of The Stamp Basket YouTube Channel !!!!!

The first video tutorial has gone live this morning.  This is the first of a weekly series of videos featuring some of the new Wild Rose Studio Christmas Stamps and a variety of colouring techniques.

Today's video shows how to use your Grey "C" Copic Markers to colour Polar Bears.

If you visit on Thursday, I have a completed project to show you using the same stamp featured in the video.

Enjoy!
