Video Tutorial Monday #40 – Superman Dad Card

Well, it’s another Monday and time for another Video Tutorial Monday. Can you believe that it’s been 40 weeks in a row now? Holy cow! I don’t know if I’ve ever done something that consistently for that long before. Haha. (Mostly because I’ve been a perpetual quitter of hobbies… like ballet, soccer, basketball, and pretty much everything else non-crafty… but that’s for another blog post. Lol!)

This week is a crazy busy week around here, so hang in there with me if everything seems a little out of whack this week. I have a lot of deadlines and classes are just starting again, so there won’t be an All About Stamping lesson this week. Don’t worry, though! I have lots of fun posts and even an exciting announcement tomorrow to share with you. All About Stamping will be back on a normal schedule next week Tuesday with a very, very special post. You’ll see. :)

Here’s the card we’re making this week:

The card mostly focuses on these awesome patterns from the Rocket Age October Afternoon 8 by 8 paper pad. I’m going to be using these patterns a lot in the future. They’re classic.

Here’s the video for this week:

And for you Trixie lovers out there, here’s a picture I snapped of her this morning when photographing the VTM card. I realized that this is part of my morning routine. I eat cereal (generic frosted flakes + Lactose-free 2% milk) while she sits on my lap and purrs. When I’m done, I let her lick the very last of my milk out of my cereal bowl (which I know I’m not supposed to do… but how can you resist that purring?). There’s something about a purring cat that just makes everything feel better.

Note to self: scrapbook this! :)

Hope you’re having a wonderful Monday. My morning started off questionably with me tripping up some concrete stairs right before class in front of about 30 people (I think I have a bruise on my knee and there’s a little scrape on my hand, but I’m fine), but everything is looking up. I’m getting things done and it looks like it’s actually possible to meet all of my deadlines this week. Woohoo! See you tomorrow for a fun announcement.

Love,
Britta
