Still I feel I have got a fair bit done so far today and it is only 1 o'clock. I have had my breakfast and was deadheading and pruning in the garden by eight! The birds were singing and the sun was shining! 4 bucket loads of trimming later I came in to do some admin on my computer.
I have been surfing the net for things for Callum's room. The wall paper is ordered and I have stocked up on printer ink. I then decided to use Pinterest to collect ideas for bits and pieces for Callum's room I found a really fab duvet cover but it is in America!!! I am going to check out how much it would cost to deliver to the UK as I do love it but I have found a couple of alternatives if not ;-) Gotta be careful of that - Note to self: make sure you browse UK shops ;-)
I am going to post my latest video before I get some lunch. I have wanted to set up and film an Art Journal page for some time. I have only done 5 or 6 pages so far so although I did my first page in 2011. I am still a newbie really. Here is my finished page.
If you follow my blog you will know I have made several mermaid tags in the past and if you were wondering how I achieve the effect this is the video for you. I love editing these fast forward videos as I don't have to do much talking to myself. Saying that I did manage about 10 takes on the intro before I was happy with it.
If anyone pops by who makes videos I would really like to know how you manage to shoot videos from your own view point rather than from across the desk as I do currently. I think it would work best for this kind of video in particular but I have no idea how to set up my camera.
I also am led to believe you can rotate your film like you can rotate photographs - I may do a search on that before I eat. All help gratefully received with that little conundrum!
Hope you enjoy my video.....I had great fun getting all my paints out. I want to try some different styles of Art Journalling. This one uses paint and decoupage but I think I would like to try an inky stamping one next.
See you soon. Thank you for popping by x
Wonderful video! I know how hard they are. This page is just fabulous! I LOVE your mermaid...just a wow! Gorgeous color and design!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anita. I love making videos but you are right a 15 minute video take a couple of days to get it finished and uploaded. I spend may hours talking to myself!!!! ;-)
DeleteAnother winner Helen. Your mermaids are always so realistic and send me off on daydreams - As a child I used to wish I could be a mermaid. Now I'm more likely to sink like a stone, haha ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment on my tag last week, but mut ask, how do I 'put my name' on my quote?

Thanks Mo - I too would join you on the ocean floor!!!! But we could recline so glamourously I am sure ;-)
DeleteArt is the portal for your imagination.

DeleteI can't imagine you being able to sink, you're on the go far too much ;)
