No you don't sound like a dork. Paper at least does what you tell it, computers on the other hand have a mind of their own!

Happy to find such a talent. My membership over at yahoo is pending!

Love those art pieces...the one for Guys is great, but it's really hard to say which one would be used more than the other. All are great.

The Art by Hand set was my first Studio 240 and I have been in love ever since. Now I need those art parts, too! lol..

Marijane said...

You did a great job on your video... the end was the best part! Ha! I hope to see many more. I love your Art Parts but probably my favorite set, and the one I use the most, would have to be the leaves. They make great leaves to your flowers but are also pretty embellishments as flourishes on frames, album covers, etc. I've already been to SSS and ordered.... great sale!

Becky said...

Thanks for the enabling alert! I took advantage of it...boy howdy!

Gabrielle said...

Ok. I have a new obsession! I thought I was obsessed by art parts but I've discovered that I'm combing Twitter etc to discover what this secret is you've been keeping! Loved the video! You're so much braver than me! Thank you for yet another giveaway - you're very generous!

Elaine A said...

Great video Wendy. Dorky? You? NAH!! I loved your tip on the using the silver for the scissors and for how to stamp the Art Parts with stamps. Thank you for posting the video, its nice to hear your voice every once in a while.

Jodi Alsteen said...

I wasn't familiar with Art parts before and am loving them. The chipboard with the matching/fitted stamp is great! So many possibilities! I have new enabler!

Anonymous said...

You do not sound like a dork at all! And don't apologize for the video. Cameras, computers, all that stuff sometimes just does what they want to do, not what you want them to do. Guess I'm sounding like an old geezer, huh? LOL!
BTW, LOVE those scissors!
xoxo

jill said...

I thought your video was great..informative and warm and personal. You should do more!! Now I must scurry over to Simon Says to spend my paycheck!

Cardgenie said...

There is no way that you sound like a dork - very professional! The video on the art parts was very timely as I've just taken advantage of the savings on the SSS site and ordered my first lot! Jean.xx

Dorothy said...

I thought the video was great!!
I actually hate my voice so I would never do one.
Thanks for the video!!

You are right - the scissors are stinkin' cute! Can't wait to see Sharon tomorrow at BSS to buy the set.

Mary Luxa said...
