starofmay is our On The Rise featured partner for June!
With a background in graphic design, Kristina has always had an eye for aesthetics. Her channel hosts over 500 videos dedicated to cardmaking and multimedia craft projects. Kristina’s videos contain eye-catching and easy-to-follow instructions as she teaches viewers the nuance in homemade card design. You can learn how to create a card using leftover ribbons and scraps or how different crafting tools and supplies compare. Love the idea of hand-crafted cards, but worried that your chicken scratch might make it turn out like a doctor’s prescription pad? Fear not - Kristina even has videos that will help make your handwriting worthy of the elegant cards you create. Learn more about Kristina’s channel and check out some of her other favorite videos below.
The very first video I posted on YouTube was a knot-tying video way back in October 2007, which was later re-uploaded with different audio. (Be nice!) Who knew where that would lead to six years later! To this day I think video is the best way to teach and share the cardmaking process, and YouTube has allowed me and thousands of other papercrafters the opportunity to share our love of cardmaking with people all over the world! We crafters are a friendly and creative bunch, and I'm so happy to share cardmaking with even more people. I want to thank each and every one of my subscribers for their support. You guys are awesome!
