Compact Note Pad and BLING Lipstick Pen Video Tutorial

Here is a photo of the Compact Note Pad and BLING Lipstick item I made for convention.

I finally finished my first every video tutorial! I have a whole new appreciation for those of you who do video tutorials! There's a few bloopers in there, that's for sure! Also, after I made the video, Erin McMilon emailed me and found the BLING pens SUPER INEXPENSIVE at this website HERE. THANKS ERIN!

UPDATE on where to purchase the round post it notes!! Dollar Tree has them in with the school supply section. They are SO CUTE and will match the pens. (They are different than the ones I have pictured, but are just as cute. There is a stripe in the new ones.) They still come 2/pack.

thanks for all the effort you went to to make this tutorial!! this is so cute and so creative. i don't have a circle scissors plus, so cutting circles in those specific measurements may be a challenge, but i'm going to try to figure out something.

there's a dollar tree on my way home from work...may have to stop by!

You did a GR8 job for your first tutorial. Filming is not easy even if we are just doing them for family memories. :-) Very cute project for your first live broadcast!!

i am so glad i had seen your blog and tutorial on the lipstick pen and compact earlier. i had meant to order the pens but like so many things, i put it off...when lo and behold, i was at target today (Jan. 6, 2011) and there were the bling pens!! i immediately took all they had. i want these for all the ladies in my family and office for valentine's day.
