I was just wondering if you have found a stamping video channel that you enjoy? I like Jennifer McGuire's tool/crafty product recommendation videos but my stamping style is very different so the tutorials aren't useful to me. (I like to color and use lots of embellishments.)
I also follow a couple of the companies (like MFT and Simon Says Stamp) so that I can see a variety of people in the same spot using products I enjoy. Those are people you could follow individually, so maybe try a few company channels?
Thank you Adriana! I appreciate the reminder about Sandy Allnock - great Copic instruction and what a great idea to follow companies I like. I'll do that!
I love watching Natasha Foote....she is very much "use what you have". Well done videos with not a lot of chit chat---has her supplies ready to go....her accent is fun too, she is from New Zealand. I've gotten my small card making group watching her too.

I love Lindsay, The Frugal Crafter. Lindsay goes into the art side of things like Sandy.
I love biblescraps.. She is very into vintage stamping. Apparently there is a “clique” of stampers that are into that now. I have watched a few of them and they are all really talented and inspirational. She is very religious. I am not. She does these devotionals that are really nice. I have been recommending her a lot because the way she does them is like getting together with your church group. I know so many can’t do that now. She is filling the void. I haven’t seen many crafters doing this. I think it is unique and makes her channel stand out. Her laugh is infectious.
Disclaimer- Clique I mean a good social circle sharing lots of inspiration and info. Not cliquish like high school cliques
Love roxyfur. She is a doll. A lot of us have known her for years and years.
Not a lot of stamping but lots of embellishments. PutSomeBlingOnIt, Craft Eccentricity and CutseyShelf.
I love to color too but I haven’t seen a lot of stampers coloring. Recent years it seems to be more technique driven. SU seems to still focus on coloring. I love the adult coloring book world. Some of the best stamping/ embellishment videos are coming from them. If that helps any.

Oh my! Thank you so much everyone! I have learned a lot (had no idea that there were coloring technique videos for the adult coloring book world) and I am really looking forward to checking out all of your suggestions. If only I didn't have to work for a living. :-) I appreciate all the terrific recommendations!
I like K Werner Design. Kristina is fun to watch and I have learned a lot of watercolor techniques from her. This is great since I'm a newbie with them. She designs products for Simon Says Stamps and often debuts them on her channel with multiple ways to use them. She seems like she would be a fun person to know.

Thank you for recommending this channel! I watched her most recent video and she does have an infectious laugh! I also love her joy and her devotionals. She seems like a lovely person.
Thank you for the most recent suggestions. I'll check out K Werner Designs for sure. I do enjoy Lavinia's tutorials but they're dangerous for me because I don't have the type of supplies she uses and want to buy everything. :-) (Of course, I couldn't resist getting some of her stamps and paper.) She makes gorgeous, unique cards.

WOW - just watched one of her videos - what a joyful spirit!! And she can SING!
I like Kristina & Jennifer as well, even if I wouldn't make all of what they do. I really like Sandy Allnock's watercolor and colored pencil projects.
I do like many of the artists on Ellen Hutson. Carissa Wiley and Therese Calvird are two of my faves over there.
Besides many already mentioned, I regularly watch the tutorials below. If you have a paper, stamp or other manufacturer whose products you like, do a search on YT for them.
I recently started watching the Lavinia Stamps' you-tube channel and have been enjoying the tutorials so far.
Oh, yes! I love them! Tracie and her ladies have inspired me with their lovely background techniques. They are responsible for my fairy stamp addiction, VersaFine Clair inkpads, and new paint markers. Oh, and they are also responsible for my remembering that I have holographic glitter that I should (and will) be using!
She isn't on YouTube but has Facebook Live videos and her name is Elizabeth Price of Seeing InkSpots. She does AMAZING things with Stampin' Up!'s Paper Pumpkin kits each month!! I've been taking her classes and watching her lives for 1-1/2 years now and every time I learn something new.
Another person I love is Lyssa Zwolanek of Song Of My Heart Studios. She also has Facebook Live videos and hers are super easy to follow, with pretty and doable ideas. I love her sweet style! For those that like people who keep it short and sweet and get to the point, she does that, but still remains friendly and relatable and fun.
Robin, I was getting ready to mention Sam Calcott; she has such a variety of projects and explains things really well.
Her noice is lovely, she doesn't repeat herself, and I can easily hear her, all of which are major plusses in my book.
Another one I enjoy is Corene's Creations I've recently decided I want to do a mini album; she has wonderful tutorials on this subject, and also makes beautiful cards.
I love watching Carrie Rhoades She has such an infectious personality.
I found a great channel for tutorials on mini albums, My Sister's Scrapper The lady's name is Ginger Ropp and I noticed she hadn't posted in a few months. Through another YouTuber I watch, Annette Green, I learned that Ginger has passed away this past September from COVID. This may sound weird, but I was devastated. It felt like I had lost a new-found friend. I had just posted on one of her videos that I looked forward to learning so much from her. I'm sure she is missed by many.

I didn't know Ginger passed away!!!! OMG! That is devastating. She was a sweetheart, just an absolute sweetheart. I am in such shock now. I can't even convey how upsetting to find out she died from Covid. She was so full of life.
Sherry Wolfe https://www.youtube.com/user/SherryWolfe/videos passed away a few months back from Covid too. I think she might have been a member here. She was an angel with such a big heart.
I really enjoy "CraftyPaws" for stamping and cardmaking because the creator uses lots of colors and embellishments, which sounds like your style. Another favorite is "Vicky Papaioannou" who has a playful and artistic approach to stamping, offering lots of creative ideas and techniques.

These channels have great editing, making their tutorials easy to follow and visually appealing. This inspired me to start my own channel focused on craft tutorials, where I try to maintain a high standard in video quality. I use Movavi for editing, which helps a lot in creating clear and engaging tutorials. If you're into making your own videos, Movavi might be worth checking out at https://www.movavi.com/.
