I remember going to a computer class many years ago and being asked by the tutor "Do you know anything about computers?" To which 80% of the class said a most emphatic "NO!!!"
She then proceeded to tell us to use the mouse to add the cursor to the search box ... and click, add the title "Whatever it was.... " and hit enter.
Most of us spent the next few minutes looking for furry creatures running around, wondering what a cursor was, why we needed to hit anything and where and what it was we were entering.
So a not very helpful tutor and a not very explicit lesson, as she clearly didn't understand the answer "NO" to her own question in the first place.
I know when I started to make cards it was something I had never come across and I couldn't find a detailed answer to my question "What is matting and layering?" ....
Having been asked the same question ... and not wanting to be tarred with the same brush as my earlier tutor with the PC's, ... I decided to make a short video to explain exactly what Matting and Layering is.
It is aimed at those people new to this hobby who don't know all these terms that are bandied about.
It has had a good response from lots of people ... so I seem to have hit the correct level and I am happy to be of use to the many many people joining the growing band of new cardmakers every single day.

What a fine idea to get down to basics. I've been crafting for centuries and appreciate you taking the time for many of the newbies out there! I sort of feel the confusion when it comes to Spellbinders dies, which for me are still a challenge! Please stop by and say hi...
