Scroll to the end to watch a SNEAK PEEK Holiday Catalog product video!!
Just thought I’d do a little catch up and share some thoughts today… I’ve been really dedicated to provide you with a free crafting, card making, product review or organizing video tutorial every Friday. I made this commitment over a year ago, and have been able to create and share 60 videos with you over the last year!!!!
Sometimes I get stuck and don’t know what I’m going to share until the day before. Other times, I have boxes of projects lined up to share on my live videos! Often times I’ve had to rearrange the planned project if the product is unavailable from Stampin’ UP! at the time.
Recently, I thought, hmmm. I just wonder if I should keep doing these videos. Like any major component of any full-time job, it’s a big time commitment. Then, I happened to receive a few very kind emails out of the blue last week from viewers sharing how much they’ve learned from my videos and how much they enjoy them.. so… my friends, I’m still here with live videos on Friday, and the replay on my blog and YouTube channel shortly thereafter 🙂 I’m so glad you enjoy them, and thank you to everyone who leaves a kind comment!
THANK YOU for your kind words and comments during the Live or later on the replay!
I’d love to know if you enjoy videos or blog posts better? or a combo of both? Comment Here.
If you are unable to catch the weekly videos Live 11am (PT) Friday videos on my PattyStamps Business Facebook Page, you can also watch the replay on my PattyStamps YouTube Channel.

MY FREE VIDEOS tutorials
Your cards are awesome and I love getting ideas from your blog. I enjoy videos that are no longer than 30 minutes (shorter is better yet).
Patty, I love your videos. I sometimes struggle with written instructions but your videos are perfect. I have learned so many tips and tricks from you. Your ability to explain and demonstrate different techniques is exceptional. I often go back and watch them several times when trying something new.
Please do continue to do your Facebook lives. I usually watch the replay later that day. Your presentations are so well organized which I appreciate. I have learned so much from you.
I like the Facebook live videos;. Sometimes I watch the replays depending on my schedule. I’ve always liked your blogposts ! Thanks for sharing your inspiration! Most recently, I really enjoyed the alcohol technique on vellum!
Love your videos Patty.
Hi Patty. I love reading your blog and seeing the great projects you post. The videos are wonderful for explaining how to do a technique, so I love watching them too. Thanks so much for your inspiration and I appreciate your time, as I have learned so much from you over the years.
Positive feedback is always good…..I’m sending you a boatload. As another Demo (in Cameron Pk) I appreciate your consistency and sharing of ideas, Carry forth my friend….and thank you.
Yes, I love all the new tips you give me on techniques. Keep up the good work.
Yes I do! Beautiful cards and gifts. So many great ideas and tips.
Love both of them!
I love all your classers no matter video, blogs or whatever. I try to get all I can and love the way you teach and layout stuff for us. I often craft along during your Friday videos and make a rough copy in ordinary paper and after the class, I thn make the card[s] with designer paper that I have. I really enjoy your teaching …, you could have been a school teacher. You are very clear and everything is easy to follow. Thank you for all you do.
Don’t stop the videos or blog, both super great.
Just recently started following you. I watched your video on alcohol ink on vellum. Loved it. Made a beautiful card the other day that I was thrilled with. Many thanks for your vast knowledge.
I love the combination of both! Your ideas are so creative and inspiring. You provide us the details and specifics for the cards/projects, so reproducing them is doable. Thank you for the time you devote to this.
I love your videos. I started watching you when you did the alcohol ink on vellum. I like the fact you show us techniques that I would never think of myself. You’re very talented. Thank you so much for sharing.
I love to watch you with all your ideas that you share with your videos.
Please continue sharing your talent with us. Thank you.
I love watching your videos and getting inspired by your beautiful projects. Love all the fun tricks and tips you show us. Plus you are so lovely to hear!
Thanks so much for sharing your ideas.
I love your videos and blog posts. Keep them coming.
I’ve really enjoyed your videos and usually in each one there are many tips that you drop in passing that are very helpful. For example, the tip about using a bone folder to smooth out the ink on a new ink pad for the best stamped image (5/14/21 Expressions in Ink) !!!! That was a big one for me and I so appreciate the time you take making videos for all of us. Actually seeing you make a project makes it so much easier. Thanks Patty.
Thanks!! I use that tip often for several of my stamps now!!
I know the weekly videos take ALOT of time but I enjoy them! I’ve gotten so many great ideas from them. Sometimes we get into a slump & need a fresh idea to get motivated again. I truly appreciate all the work you put into them!
I love them both!! You always have great ideas.
Hi Patty,
I enjoy and learn alot from your video’s. They’re full of details on making fun projects. I also learn alotnand enjoy your daily blog posts with lots of instructions and product information. Keep doing your great work! I love it all.
Hi Patty, yes I love your demos they are so inspirational. Thank you. Xx
I love your video’s. You are very detailed and so very pleasant! You do a great job!
I like both formats. I may not watch on your day, but enjoy the replays
Enjoy your videos have learned things
I love both formats. So please keep up this amazing work and the tireless dedication you have
Hi Patty from the very very first day that I chose you to be my SU demonstrator I have been watching your videos and learning everything I can. So much so, that I have a special folder dedicated to “Patty stamps” on my iPad that has every single video so that I can refer back for instructions and inspiration. You are so organized, dedicated and very loved. 🥰
I do enjoy your videos! I always learn something new or get ideas for a card! You are great to watch. I love your laugh!👏👏👏
Most definitely !! You have a wonderful gift of gab. 🥰❤️💞
Yes I watch! I enjoy seeing how others do the same things I do. Some times with a much easier way of doing it or tips to make it go faster. Please continue to do videos. It is fun to watch and learn. Thanks 🐝
I love your videos and watch whenever I can
Love your videos Patty! You are an excellent teacher, I have learned so much from watching them and have been inspired by your beautiful projects. Thanks for sharing. Regards Shirley
I watch your videos, but not usually live. I like to take the time to go back to a section if I didn’t understand something. I appreciate the videos I’ve watched. Thank you!
Hello Patty
I just want to send a huge Thank You for your videos. I know it’s a big time commitment and sure appreciate it. I discovered your videos a few months ago and have found them very helpful. The tips you share are always useful. I’m a fellow demonstrator from Canada, only 4 years in.
Thank you for all you have taught me!
I like a combination of both video and blog posts as sometimes it’s nice to hear you share why you’re doing something or what you found helpful for yourself when working on designing a project or even what we should avoid. The written format gives an easy reference to things maybe discussed/shared in your videos so there is no need to go back and try to find what was said in the videos. Thank you for providing such great content!
I watch your videos and read your blog posts and they both are very helpful. I also enjoy your helpful tips which help us newer stampers. Please continue.
Patty, I always enjoy your informative videos. You are so sweet and love to hear what you have to say about all the goodies. Your videos are NEVER too long. Learn so much from you about crafting and storage and love to hear about your personal life also. Thanks for sharing with us.
I follow your blog and also watch your video’s. I appreciate all the work that goes into producing both. Truthfully I generally watch your replays, rather than catching you live; but occasionally I do manage a live. Thank you for all your hard work.
Hi Patty I enjoyed both your videos and your blog and thank you for sharing your creativity and your love of paper crafting with us. My latest project has been making a mini album of my granddaughters graduation and several graduation cards. Blessings!
Yes I do watch your Friday videos.if fact I often watch the. Over and over. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and inspiration with us.
Thank you for all the time & talent you share freely. I’ve seen how much time & energy goes into making the videos & also getting things ready for the card it’s self. I love watching the videos & enjoy the replays to refresh my memory.
I rarely get a chance to view your live broadcasts but really, really enjoy your videos. I watch both on YouTube and your Blog and they are always an inspiration for me to make something with a SU product that I already have. Keep up the good work
I love your videos and blog posts! I wish you did one everyday! Your designs, explanations of how to do a technique, keeping us up to date on specials and what’s happening is excellent. Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Patty, I enjoy both! I am not always able to catch the lives, but usually go back and watch the replay when I catch the blog posts. I understand the time commitment as my crafting time has really been cut, but the effort is appreciated!
Patti: Yes, I watch all your videos and learn lots from them. Truly appreciate the time and effort and am glad you plan to continue them. I like both blog posts and videos.
I like your videos.Thank you so much
Very informative thank you. I thought if one punched out the shimmer stars could you use a small star die and punch out more stars. I am a demonstrator also but enjoy your videos.
Patty, you are always a source of inspiration and I greatly appreciate the time and energy you put into making the videos. I watch your videos every week. (I’m not a blogger.) You also share your joy of creating. You are warm and helpful and very, very patient. I pray that God will continue to bless your Stampin’ Up! business as you use it to bless so many of us.
THANK YOU!
Cathy from Virginia
I hardly ever get to watch the live video because I miss it. I’m going to have to set my alarm!! However I do watch your videos later and even though I’ve been stamping forever I still learn things!!!
Patty
I enjoy your videos very much. I get so much information from them. I really don’t know what I’d do without them. Realize it’s a huge commitment but hopefully you’ll be willing to continue to share your amazing talent with us
I like both. I get tired of watching videos all the time. I do really like seeing your blog with stuff you made and some tips and all the stuff you used to make it. So I really like both. Sorry! I suppose that’s more work for you!!!
I watch the videos on replay and I do learn something from them. However, it is a huge commitment, more than most people realize. I follow a few crafters who commit to twice a month and some only once per month. Because I follow several people, it gives me time to try what I’ve learned from each one. The ones I follow usually have a calendar that shows when they post, which is usually on the same date each month (or close to it). That’s just a suggestion to help you decide if you want to cut back a little. However, you explain your project very well and I enjoy learning from you. It’s OK to do what is best for you. Our stamping community is kind and wants what works best for you. Thank you for all of your efforts to help us.
Yes, I do post at 11am every Friday morning (pacific time).. you can follow my reminders and schedule on my business page: https://www.facebook.com/pattystamps/
Hi Patty, I love to watch and learn through videos. It’s a favorite thing of mine. I am not on Facebook, so I can’t do the live videos, but I catch them on your blog. Thank you for sharing your tips and inspiration.
I do enjoy both. You make it easy to duplicate your work by viewing your videos and reading your blogs. Thanks for sharing your methods so that I can learn various methods and means to improve my card projects and to get the best out of the SU products.
You’re my go to gal Patty!!
Depends on the day :Blog or your replay! Saved dozens
Love from Jackson, WI
Dear Patty,
I am a “hobby” demo, and I love your blog, videos, tips, etc., because I don’t have a fraction of your creativity and I can not see how to translate stamps to a scene. I learn so much from you! I do not have classes, followers, etc., and I stamp for my own family and friends’ occasions. Thank you very much for allowing someone like me to be “in” on all your ideas!
With great appreciation,
Nancy B
I have subscribed to your blog probably not long after you began. Beyond any shadow of doubt, I have learned so much, have taken in so many tips and ideas, watched in amazement how you break down how a particular technique is done and samples of not only what you created live but others to see you have completed before. Your blog and videos are first rate, very organized, the love of paper crafting is so contagious as it is so apparent with your voice and what comes off of paper, ink and stamps that is so special. You share so much and go beyond the ordinary that you leave everyone with the enthusiasm to keep going, even if it hasn’t been the best of times. Thank you!
I love both. I may not watch all the videos exactly after you make them but they are there for when I have a few extra minutes. I appreciate your insight with the products and would hate to lose the videos. And I have purchased products to remake your cards.
Try to watch Live
Look at blog to research more on project
I’m a demonstrator
I love both your videos and your blog posts. Your instructions and photos are a great help to me.
You are my most absolute favorite demonstrator and one of the VERY few I follow. I usually have to watch the replay and I watch it every week.. I love your designs and tips and share them with my own customers. I have a small team of hobby stampers and they mostly do this for fun but they look to me for help which I mostly get from you! Thank you so much for all your hard work and sharing your talent and excitement for the craft.
I ready every email and video you post. Thank you for being there.
I love love watching your videos & reading your blog
Oh, I love your videos! Great ideas and inspiration.
I love the videos best. I’m a visual learner and this works for me to see the cards ,the instructions and watch you put it together. Thank you for taking the time to make the videos!! Excellent job!
Sherry from Texas
Hi Patty,
I appreciate your dedication sharing videos ad techniques every week. I can’t image how much time each on takes.
I love them both and look forward them.
Patty, I enjoy both visual and written works. I definitely will be watching
your videos. I am not on Facebook so will be watching them later on
YouTube. Thank you so much for your time and energy you expend to
provide us with inspiration and “how to” instructions.
I follow your blogs AND watch your videos. I need both to be able to recreate. If I had to see just one, I would probably choose the videos because you are so thorough and explain so clearly the steps in making your projects.
By the way, I have used the email luv2stamp2001 since 2001. I’ve used it with yahoo.com, att.com and others.😊
Hi Patty, I really enjoy your videos. I have never watched live but I watch the YouTube replays since I don’t do Facebook. I don’t have time or the patience to read blogs. Thank you for the ideas & tips. Keep up the great work.
Yes. I love watching your weekly videos. I love your organizing ideas and have been so inspired by your cards. Thank you for doing them!
Love watching weekly videos, but also enjoy your blogs. Keep em both coming.
Patty – your videos are one of the most helpful and informative of any SU demonstrator! Please continue.
Your projects are always beautiful.
Your videos are so appreciated!! I’m relatively new (one year) as a card maker and demonstrator. I’ve learned so much from you and appreciate your beautiful cards. Keep up the good work! I prefer the video tutorials, but go to the blog for more info when I especially appreciate a technique.
Patty, Yes I do watch your timely video’s. You keep me inspired!
I love the videos
Both
I enjoy them both!!
I love your videos Patty, I usually watch later. I have learnt so much from you. I really do appreciate you sharing your skills and knowledge.😃
yes i love them it helps me a lot i teach 5 women every two weeks Kathy
Love, love, love them both! Thank you!
thank you…a million times…
I am new to you and I enjoy all I have seen! Thanks!
I love your videos. Your designs are something I can use.
Patty,
I personally love the videos. I learn better from watching and also you tend to give tips while filming and that recent video you did where you laid out your thoughts on how you came up with the idea and your thought process was extremely helpful. I also Love that you post your measurements. I think I speak for a lot of people when I say – Thank You for ALL you do!! 💕
I love a combo of both blogs and videos, but videos are my favorite!!
I love both videos and blogs and I also love the youtubes. Thank you for everything you do . I know it is alot of work and time but I am so appreciative of all you do. I’m a visual person so I enjoy all your cards and ideas.
God Bless You,
Helen
That’s how I found you was from watching you on utube I get a lot of ideas from you and things I would not have orders I like after watching you please keep doing them
I usually enjoy your videos – especially those for which I have the stamps/embossing folders/etc.
I enjoy your video’s – please continue to do them Patty
I enjoy the videos!!! They are very helpful & Help me purchase the correct items…
Thanks a million… Keep the videos coming…
yes, i do most of the time! I have learned a lot from your videos.
Yes watch your replays all the time. Please keep up the videos. You do a great job,
I watch your videos after the live ones. You are my inspiration. I get so many ideas from you! I stamp for a hobby. my demonistrater teamed up with another demonstrater during Covid and we do Zoom. We do four cards a month and swaps. I use their ideas and yours. Right now our church is still on Facebook for services . we have an Out Reach Committee and they keep in touch with the congregation via cards, phone and visits. I make cards for my group of 10 and I’m also doing 10 extra for someone in our group and hand deliver them once a month! I have a lot of swaps from conventions and get togethers in my area. I also supply cards to the church secretary to send out when people can’t do it.
Congratulations on selling 2 million $ of Stampin Up supplies. That takes a lot of effort and I know creating different ideas for your videos takes a lot of time and planning on your part. I’m a former 1st grade teacher of 48 years so I know what planning and creating is all about! Do what is best for you! Think twice if you are . leaning toward giving up the videos. Think how much you are helping those who buy from you!
I love your videos and usually watch on You Tube. I love that I can pause the video as many times as needed if I have a question. I love your style of delivery and appreciate your talent and knowledge. Please know that you help many people to create art which can then be shared with others to help brighten their day. Thanks again.
I Love them both. Can easily go back to blog post for details if I forget something.
I love both!
I became one of your customers and then a demonstrator from watching your YouTube videos and still love watching them because you always have such great ideas and tips. Please keep them coming and know how much we appreciate the time and effort it takes to make them. Thanks so much for your dedication and congratulations on your new achievement.
I love, love your videos. You are one of the most artistic people I have seen. Everything you do is clearly stated on how to do the project or technique. I for one appreciate all you do. I know how much time it takes to devise a project. It is very clear you love what you do. So, I just want to simply say thank you.
Ihave just recently found your videos and I love them. Your projects are always beautiful. I know it is a lot of work but I hope you can see your way to continue them. I enjoy the blog posts also.
I love them both. I like to watch your videos because I am a visual person, but I also like to go back to your blog to see in depth photos and dimensions and products used, etc. Thanks for your videos! Love them!
Patty I absolutely love the cards you make. I love your style! Your blog and videos are so helpful and inspiring as well as fun and enjoyable. Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into them.
Hi Patty! I watch your YouTube videos and love them! I should have probably thanked you before now so I’m glad you posted this email to give me a chance to do so. I totally enjoy them and pass them along to stamping friends! You would probably be surprised how many times during a lunch or phone call that the lady says, I watched that Patty Bennett video and then we talk about the featured card or technique. We love your videos and hope you’ll be able to continue them! Thank you!
Patty. I have never been able to watch you live but I ALWAYS watch the replay. Your videos are very helpful to me and I love seeing what you do. Thanks
I am a visual learner so I really enjoy your videos and of course, the photos of your cards and projects. I appreciate the time and effort that you put into sharing your crafting. Thank you.
I so appreciate you sharing g your expertise! Yes, I love your videos!
I rarely subscribe to blogs/videos but yours are exceptional! Thank you for sharing your expertise and creativity.
Love your videos as well as blog posts that include details and measurements. You are very talented and I love your style and designs!
I love the video’s Patty:)
I am a visual learner for sure .
Keep them up! Your hard work is very much appreciated 💛
Love weekly videos. Actually look forward to them as a part of my weeks activities! Thanks so much, and I look forward and hope you will continue♥️
I love BOTH your videos and blog posts. You have such great ideas and explain things so well. Please don’t stop!
YES, VERY MUCH!!!! If I did not have a S Up rep I would choose you immediately! Love everything you post … The instructions are Fabulous. Please keep up the great work and keep me on the list.
Patty,
Thank You, Thank You for your video showing a lot of the new items in the Mimi Catalog and Sale A Bration flyer. It is super helpful to see the products before hand. You also shared SO MANY wonderful ideas , tips and information. So thankful to your commitment to the stamping and crafting community!!
You not only have a lot good ideas but you share often and take the time to video and post all your measurements. All of which takes a lot of time but it’s easy to see how you really care about those who tune into your site by all you do!
Also loved that you shared your personal story about your grandfather and other family members passing along their pocket watches from back in the 1900’s. How wonderful to have a piece of their history still with you!
Love your videos. Just can’t thank you enough for sharing your great idea’s and taking the time as well.Once again thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I enjoy both your blog posts and your videos … thanks so much for sharing 🙂
I ALWAYS watch your videos. You explain techniques, ideas, etc. so that they are easily understood (especially for us older ladies). I would like to see more videos by you on how to make fun fold cards. You have videos on a few, but I wish you had more. You are one of my FAVORITE demonstrators.
I love your videos! One thing I really like about you is your love of coloring.
Hi Patty,
I have enjoyed all of your videos for many years. I get so many wonderful ideas and helpful hints from you. If I didn’t already have a Stampin-Up
Demonstrator, (which lives an hour drive from my house) I would certainly be ordering from you. Thank you! 🙂
VIDEOS …….. I like when you’re able to explain what you’re doing …… Thank You for ALL your helpful thoughts and ideas.
Thank you for all the different styles of cards that you make. I like to watch your videos but I also like the directions perhaps on a blog too so I can copy it for use now and for later too.
