I have been teaching card making classes for over 2 years now and it is my experience that most people, myself included, want to get the most out of the stamps they buy. They are an investment and we want to make the most of them. Although I am still working on the details, the intention is to sell a set of stamps with 10 online classes. I can supply to anywhere in the world subject to postage and packing and if people have the stamps already they can opt to purchase the online classes without the stamps.
Each set of card classes will include simple and more complicated designs and they will all explore lots of different stamping and card making techniques. There will be itemised tool and material lists and the lessons once purchased will be available to use day or night 24/7 always. Once you have purchased a set of lessons you will have the links to the tutorials so that you can use them whenever you want to make a particular card.
Whilst I am making my videos I also intend to make tutorials for things like how to create inners for cards, all the different card folds, tips and techniques, etc. which will eventually grow into a useful library resource - particularly for those that are new to card making.
I am really excited about setting this up. I will still be working on workshops to fill up my ETSY and Blog sidebar shop. These workshops will focus more on home decor projects and mini scrapbook projects. I think I am going to be very busy!!! There is a fun Advent project coming soon!
Today I fired up Photoshop and set too making a new intro slide for my Stamp Club Videos. I think you can still recognise it as belonging to The Craft Project but it looks different to the videos that are on my free You Tube Channel. So here is a sneek peek!!!
I have also set up the credits (you know the bits at the front and back of my videos!!) and I have changed the intro music. It is very odd hearing a different tune on one of my videos but again I think it is worth doing. By the time I have made the first set of tutorials and am ready to launch my first kit I will know for sure if I want new music!!!
I videoed the first tutorial yesterday so I am ready to edit tomorrow! I will keep you posted of my progress. If you want to leave me some feedback on the kinds of things you would like from a Stamp Club I would love to hear what you think.
It has taken me two years to get to this point and now it is time to step up a gear! Wish me luck!!!!!
Thank you for popping by X
Oh I do wish you loads of luck Helen! What an exciting adventure you are embarking upon. I do hope I can come along for the ride on a regular basis. :D
ReplyDeleteI'd be interested in more help in using the distress products for stamping and layering, but I look forward to learning different card shapes & styles. :D Mo x
