spiral flower video tutorial {my first video!}

THANK YOU
those of you who contacted me and expressed interest
in how I made the spiral flowers for this
Mother's Day card

Rather than try to answer each of you
individually, I decided to go ahead
and try my hand at a video tutorial.

{please be kind, this is my very first
video tutorial!!}

Here she is...

spiral flower video from rae barthel on Vimeo.

If you have any additional questions after the video
please feel free to leave your question in the 
comments section below and I will get back to you
or shoot me an email at
raescards {at} comcast {dot} net

I would also love your feedback
{good/bad/ugly}
about this video
before I make another one some day!!

have a great day!!

Hi! I read about this on the 'Bits and Pieces' blog.
I really like this idea! I like the simplicity of it, and how many colours and bling that can be used.
Thanks for the video, i thought you did great.
