Good morning!!
By request, here's the instructions on how to complete the Valentine Nerds in a Video Tutorial! (p.s. I love the request... so, keep it up!!) When you're done with the tutorial, make sure you read my Side Notes (you might be rewarded).
Video also shows you how to use the Gamsol/Mineral Spirits with the Prismacolor Pencils.
Side Notes........ I know, towards the end I kinda messed up, but I'm a stamper, not a movie maker..hee hee. It's hard getting the camera at the right angle.... and I think my image might be a little blurry. I normally film my tutorials on my vanity in my bathroom...BUT, thanks to our frozen pipes today, my vanity as well as my counter tops are loaded up. Good News, the little heater unfroze them after about 8 hours...now we just gotta pray they don't refreeze!!
Here's the info you're looking for.....Everyone that posts a comment on this tutorial will be entered to win one of these boxes (minus the Nerds, that way it will fit in an envelope :) I will draw a name at noon on Saturday Jan. 5th!
Thanks for checking in!!

Great tutorial. What was the little bottle that you kept the OMS in? I have been having to dip my stump in the big bottle. This is so cute to give for Valentines Day. I will try it. Thanks for taking the time under adverse conditions to film this. Glad you are back to normal.

Yeah!! My whinin' paid off! Thanks for posting this. I guess now I have to order the valentine bundle (smile)! I'll do that at club. I really appreciate you putting this together, under the circumstances. Hope things are better now!

Enjoyed the video on the NERDS box as I have enjoyed all your other videos. How does the mineral spirits with the pencils technique differ from using the blender pens? Or is this just another technique to get a similar effect?

What a great idea and video showing how to make it. I might just have to do this for valentine's for the kids to take to school for their clasemates.

Love it! I was trying to figure out the box of Nerds yesterday - thinking that it was one of those mini boxes - wondering how you attached it! Duh! Now I know. Thanks for the tutorial. Maybe I can do some for my Mom & Me class!
