Paperclipping 106 – Mix Your Own Paint Colors

Thursday, May 28th, 2009
Get the Flash Player to see this video.

Here is the free trailer for today’s episode of Paperclipping for our Members. This episode is all about color and how to mix your own colors from acrylic paint using just a handful of base hues. Even if you’re not into paint, this episode should help you with color in general. One thing to note is that video is not able to pick up the subtleties of color that our eyes see, so you’ll have to rely more on what I explain than what you can see in the video during some of the color mixing portions.

If you’re not a Member, please visit the Membership Information Page to find out how you can get access to this video plus over 100 videos in the archives.

How often do you stare at your table, with no idea how you’ll scrapbook a set of pictures? I used to do that all the time, and it was the one thing that sometimes made me not want to scrap. Fortunately that hasn’t happened in years, and today I’ll show you why.

This video is available to members only. Learn about a membership here.

Paperclipping 104 – Use Shading to Create Dimension [Members Show]

Thursday, May 14th, 2009
Get the Flash Player to see this video.

Today’s episode is for Paperclipping Members but if you don’t have a Membership you can watch the trailer we’ve provided above.

For this episode I show you the steps to take to make a window with a grouping of photos and to create a flower planter underneath that window. The idea is to create the feeling of peeking into my kitchen window to see the activity going on in there. Not only will you see the steps it takes to build the planter, I also share a couple of artistic and design principles and concepts.

I apologize for not having had the time to post a picture of the layout featured in the video. I’ll try to come back and add it later.

If you don’t have a Paperclipping Membership you’ll be happy to know that today’s episode is free for anyone to watch. In this tutorial I introduce my idea visual memoirs using mini-albums where we can tell a more complete story than what typical scrapbook pages and albums allow.

If you enjoy today’s episode, you might want to consider getting a Membership so you can watch all of the tutorials we release. For example, last week’s member’s-only video gave instructions on how to create the bead-effect on the cover of this mini-album. It also shared information on the various size and types of pages I used.
