Videos, tutorials, etc., that you recommend?

I love Yana Smakula's videos. Also Carissa Wiley.

Also, if you've never seen the Online Card Classes crafty chats, they're pretty fun to watch!

For digital design (not really papercrafting, just general design), I like Teela Cunningham

And while they're not at all craft-related, I always love a good Slow Mo Guys video.

(And of course Jennifer McGuire is my favorite, but you're probably already familiar with her work.)

hope you feel better soon scrapnnana

paige evans has lots of mini albums on her channel; some are just shares but some tutorials too

Have you watched any card cut ups videos? He shows cards he made with various kits, 10 cards 1 kit kind of videos but without the process part. He's pretty funny. Or at least, he cracks himself up! > . < He might be pretty fun to watch while on pain meds

Justine Hovey has tons of stamping and card making videos. I really like her.

You might already know her but Mercy Tiara has a huge number of videos on her channel - layout process, craftroom tours, chatty stuff, all kinds of things. Some very long, extremely detailed organization/room tour videos.

Someone here recently recommended Tanya Hubbard's channel and I liked her. She seems to have a lot of videos - kit club layouts, memory planning, art journals, etc.

Hopefully something catches your interest

Also hope don't go too crazy and the meds are kind to you. After I had surgery I found the meds were worse than the pain, they made me feel so sick. I ditched the meds after a few days. I got really bored with laying on the couch and I got really lonely and frustrated. Hope you have some people around you who can help you stay sane. Feel better soon! <3

Morning scrapnnana , I hope you're recovering nicely?

Most people I watch are already mentioned. But here's a few more I watch for ideas on how to do this stuff in Photoshop:

Mike Deakin - British art journaler

Inkie Quill and Let's Get Inkie - Adele with scrapbooking/Project Life and art journalling

Inklipse - Simon, young lad who makes cards

I hope you feel better soon!

Check out RTS Scrapbooking channel on YouTube. Great layout ideas.

I hope you recover well ❤️ I’m not much of a you tube watcher(can’t sit still lol) but I find a lot of tutorials and inspiration on Pinterest. I also started keeping a small notebook handy for when I think of ideas

I like to watch Shellie geigle from j&s hobbies and crafts. She does mini albums.

oooh, one of my favorite pasttimes!! Feel better soon, Nana!

I like some of those already mentioned (and will try others)

I really love the creativity of Heather Tracy! heather tracy
I like watching (and listening to) Marta Maremi Small Art
I also really like Olga Direktorenko Olga

also, just type in something that interests you in the search bar, like alcohol ink, paint pouring, etc. I like to see what recommendations come up after I have watched something, too.

This is not craft related, but Carpool Karoake videos on YouTube are fun.

Someone just recommended YennyStorytale in another thread - she makes a lot of her own embellishments and seems to love Michaels and her glue gun. I have just watched one video so far, but she's a nice change of pace from what I usually watch.

I just finished watching some scrapbook process videos from Tina Gale, I really liked them.

A good web site for mini albums is My Sister's Scrapper .

She has tutorials on her web site on how to make the mini albums and she also has a YouTube channel.



Here are a few blogs. These are on card making.

Michelle Boyer


Melania Deasy
She does beautiful pastel coloring with Copics.


Laura Bassen
Her cards are usually bright and cheerful.



Scrapnnana, hope you have a speedy recovery.

For cards I really like watching Amy R at Prairie Paper and Ink. She posts almost daily on YouTube. Hope you feel better soon!
