Hello Friends, How are you? Is your week off to a good start? I am super exited that I finished my card with that scene of the bears in the flower field. I started this card panel on Day 6. and Day 7. All finished now! Whew!
On day 7. I mentioned that I couldn’t find the flowers on theMFT’s web site … well that’s because they are part of June’s “Flowers Bloom Card Kit”! How exciting! Love how the flower field works with “Builder Bears”.
Today I have two giveaways and more on that below.
For the shadows on the grass I used a colored pencil.
GIVEAWAY! I have TWO surprise stampS and die setS from My Favorite Things for two random winners!
To qualify all you need to do is tell me in the comment area …..If you like my short videos? I don’t mind if you say no it will be valuable feedback for me.
Winners will be announced at the end of the challenge. Good Luck! I will have more giveaways coming!

Kathy Racoosin says
Excellent feedback, Dee! Thanks 🙂

Kathy Racoosin says
Melinda, thank you so much! I appreciate your feedback 🙂
Liz E says
I love the short videos! Sometimes details, like adding shadows, gets lost in a longer video so the shorter videos helps to emphasize it — and we pay more attention to these type of details.
Kathy Racoosin says
Thank you so much, Liz! I am grateful for your input 🙂
Sweta says
Swooning over all that shading, details and shadows! And absolutely loving the tips ! Shorter videos are good for quick learning or knowledge about a technique or how the project was put together… you are amazing !!
Kathy Racoosin says
Sweta, you are so very kind! Thank you so much 🙂
Andrea Hastilow says
Great that you finally found where your flower inspiration was coming from, it’s so annoying when you miss place things. Great work. On the topic of videos, I like short & long video’s, all depends on who it is, what they are showing ? If it’s you I will take any advice you have to offer long or short. Enjoy your week x
Kathy Racoosin says
Andrea, you make me smile! Thank you so much 🙂
Heather Innusa says
This is so awesome Kathy!! i always struggle with lighting and am terrible at shading because I always overthink it! I’ll give your idea a try!

Kathy Racoosin says
Good to know, Nancy! I appreciate your taking time to leave feedback for me 🙂
Amanda Fitterer says

Kathy Racoosin says
Vickie, that is good to know! Thank you 🙂
Pam says
I have to say, I like both the short and e long, so just do whatever strikes your fancy!! I must say I DO like it when you explain a little (lime in this video it was hard to see what color you were ado g and how). So instead of music, just a brief description would be nice.
I do love all your videos, I have learned a lot from them!
Kathy Racoosin says
Pam, that means a lot to me,! I am so grateful for your feedback 🙂
Jeanne Beam says
I love your short video, sometimes that’s all the time have to sit and watch a video.
Your card is adorable! Thanks for sharing…
Kathy Racoosin says
Jeanne, I am thrilled that you like my card! Thanks for your input too 🙂
Jean Chaney says
Kathy, I can’t express enough how important “short” videos are. Many of us crafters, love to learn more but not at the expense of having no time to craft ourselves. Several of my favorite online people have expanded their videos to a length that just makes me click off and not watch. Too bad, because I love their stuff but just don’t have the time to watch for that long.
Kathy Racoosin says
Jean, that is SO true! I feel guilty sometimes when watching the longer videos that I have to fast forward through parts. But there just isn’t enough hours in a day to color, make videos, read comments, and watch long videos. Thank you 🙂
JodyT says
I do like your short videos, I just don’t always get a chance to watch them.
Kathy Racoosin says
Jody, thank you for the feedback! I appreciate your stopping by my blog 🙂
Lily Benedicto says
Super adorable bears and those flowers, WOW!
I love both short and long videos. Short vids I watch when I take my coffee breaks at work and long vids for when I’m washing dishes and cleaning up at night.
Kathy Racoosin says
Lily, I am thrilled that you like them! I enjoy your tip for making time for videos. You make me smile 🙂
Laura says
I love all your videos. 8 could watch a livestream of you coloring all day long. I learn so much – short or long!
Kathy Racoosin says
Laura, you are so thoughtful to say so! You made my day 🙂
Amy Cooley says
I think there’s a place for both long and short videos, but short is definitely easier when your crunched for time.
Kathy Racoosin says
Amy, that is a valid point! Life gets in the way so often 🙂
Chark says
I do like them—they’re helpful and I don’t have to set aside 30 minutes. Thank you!
Kathy Racoosin says
Thank you, Chark! I am grateful for your feedback 🙂

Kathy Racoosin says
Thanks, Maureen! You are so sweet 🙂
Karen Atkinson says
I love your videos! I am trying to hone my skills and realized that I CAN learn from more than one master in the field and that no one technique is the be all, end all. I love how you use graphite and colored pencils to add details and interest to your water and copic coloring. Time for me to dust off my colored pencils and see if I can do the same. Keep the videos coming!
Kathy Racoosin says
Karen, get those pencils out! Mix different ways to color, but more importantly, have fun. I am always learning from other crafters. Thank you for your thoughtful comment 🙂

Yes – for sure, I like the short videos.
Kathy Racoosin says
Good to know, Sherry! Thanks 🙂
Sheri Kempke says
Kathy, amazing coloring, and even though I’ve always known you to be a great colorist, I can see from your current work how much you’ve grown since I’ve started following you! Proven point is that lots of practice is required! I love your short videos, this one showed the shadow detail perfectly, and I think it helps it get “etched” in my brain, longer video’s sometimes have too much info. This one perfectly focuses in on what you are trying to teach! Thanks! I’ve been participating this month, just doing bigger things or have less time, so not posting each day’s coloring, but finished projects, once I finish a few. It seems that some need a few days to “stew” before I know what I need to do next.
Kathy Racoosin says
Sheri, your well thought out and kind feedback is so very much appreciated! Thank you for your sweet compliment too. That means the world to me 🙂
DeNel says
I very much enjoy your short videos!! You have such a gift!! Thanks for the giveaway!❤️

Kathy Racoosin says
Thank you so much, Donna! You are so thoughtful 🙂
Anne Sturgeon says
Short or long, I sit down with a coffee and take a break…. I have been anxious to see this one finished. The flowers are so beautifully done, now the bears complete it. It was definitely worth the wait. Thank you!
Kathy Racoosin says
You are most welcome, Anne! Anything for a sweet friend like you 🙂
Olga Dendrinou Fink says
Wow this is fabulous Kathy! I like long videos because I get to see the process. But I also like short videos because I learn of a specific tip.
Xoxo Olga

The short videos are super, Kathy. I always learn a lot. I love the longer ones too because I feel like we get to see your thought processes too.
Kathy Racoosin says
Donna, I appreciate your thoughtful feedback! Thank you 🙂
Kathy H says
Found this short video concise and to the point. Although it is very brief I think it’s possibly more effective as it isolates the specific technique you wanted to highlight in a clear and simple manner without getting lost in a longer, more general video. Very much appreciate all your videos.
Kathy Racoosin says
I am grateful for your kind input, Kathy! It means a lot to me 🙂
Peggy says
A awesome card that truly displays your talent and skill, Kathy. Outstanding role modeling for one and all. I like the short videos. Some artists make their videos much too long.
Kathy Racoosin says
Peggy, you are so very kind! Thank you very much 🙂
Mirella says
I like the short videos. It’s like getting a quick tip about shading, details, etc. Not sure I would feel the same way if you posted longer videos.
Kathy Racoosin says
Mirella, thank you for your helpful insight! It is much appreciated 🙂
Megan N says
I do enjoy the short videos. Still good tips and tricks and easier to fit in my day!

Kathy Racoosin says
Awww, Sandra, you just made my day! You are so sweet 🙂

Leslie, you are the so lovely to say so! Thank you very much 🙂
Arianna Barbara says
I love your short videos!!! But all the long ones too!!! You’re amazing and very inspirational!!!
Deb Tilton says
I enjoyed the short video. Adding shadows always make it look better. I wish you would have shown how you did the green grass.
Kathy Racoosin says
Deb, I am so happy that you liked it. I believe I explained the grass in a previous 30 day challenge, if you want to look, but simply put, I use my topic markers, then add touches with pencil.
Michelle Hackett says
Your videos, short, or long, are always informative and are how a large majority of us find out about those extra little touches that really make a card stand out. Thank you for inspiring me to make cards I’m proud to send to my family and friends.
Kathy Racoosin says
Michelle, your comment has me grinning ear-to-ear! I am sure your family and friends are delighted to receive a card from you. Keep coloring, my friend. You are so kind; thank you 🙂

Cathy, I am so glad that you enjoy them! I appreciate your stopping by my blog 🙂
MandaLJ says
I have to admit that I rarely watch videos as my internet connection is sooooo sloooow, but I’d definitely prefer to watch a short video over a long one!
Kathy Racoosin says
That is a valid point, Manda! Slow internet connections are frustrating. Thank you so much for taking time to watch and leave feedback for me 🙂

Kathy Racoosin says
Good to know, Gwen! Thanks so much 🙂
TracyM #6773 says
SUPER CUTE and SO BEAUTIFUL too!
LOVE your bears, ADORE your flowers,

Kathy Racoosin says
Tracy, your lovely comment made my day. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. You make my heart happy 🙂
Joyce Boylan says
I love your videos! Always informative and I live watching you color! I have to confess that I only watch YT when I have time for longer videos so the shorter ones pumps me up to watch the longer ones – I hope that makes sense. Thanks for inspiration – truly appreciated!
Kathy Racoosin says
LOL, Joyce, that makes a lot of sense to me! I appreciate you too; thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback 🙂
Gail Plaskiewicz says
I love how you did the flowers! I would love to learn to do this. Can you come to my house? Hey, I’ll cook & everything, you just need to show up! LOL I love this card & how you finished it. You did an amazing job as usual.
Do I like your short videos? I like all your videos! After all, it was a video of yours that I watched to make my first shaker card without a die cutter! I love seeing how you do things. I am off to post more cards!
Kathy Racoosin says
Thank you so much, Gail! You crack me up. I can’t wait to see what you’ve posted 🙂

Kathy Racoosin says
I am so glad you liked it! You are the sweetest 🙂
stempelfrida says
I love your short videos to get insights on how you colour. Isn´t it funny that – though it is not necessary at all to get insights into the technique – I bend my head to see the design upside up? 🙂
Kind regards from stempelfrida
Kathy Racoosin says
Teehee, me too! Sorry about the sideways 🙂 Thank you for taking time to stop by my blog .
Barbara Chmura says

I enjoy watching the short videos as much as I love viewing the longer ones. Short videos help me to get a quick look at the new techniques you share, especially on days when I have a lot on my plate. I then watch the full videos on the days I am free.

Sweet card, Kathy! I do enjoy your short videos and do appreciate your thoughtfulness. There aren’t enough hours in a day to spend hours on watching crafty videos AND getting crafty as well. Time seems to be slipping through my fingers these days…

Hi dear Kathy,
Sorry I left other two comments answering two other girls.

I have to admit that I don’t really watch many videos at all; don’t have the attention span! : ) Or maybe it’s the fact I don’t have that much free time due to having 3 kids!
