Dream and Grandson Jack

I did a card the Dream Girl earlier and just had to make a card with Dream the boy version by Mo’s Digital pencil he’s simply gorgeous. I coloured him with Promarkers and Flex Markers by Letraset and love the result.

I used Vintage seam binding and Stampin Up designer papers and also a Nestabilities scalloped oval, the balloons are a craft punch and a bit oftwine for the balloon string.

We had Jack with us tonight he’s such a busy little chap, he helped me water the plants in the garden then took a seat to relax after working so hard, I bet you didn’t know that I had my own real life garden gnome.

Here he is sitting on his toadstool.

Promarker Tutorial Video Winner

Gosh I nearly forgot to do the draw for this, I’m going to blame it on a lazy Sunday, I was shattered after the Promarker class yesterday I forgot just how much a full day takes it out of me, still suffering with a bad back and it tends to go from being very uncomfortable to being unbearable and there is no warning sign in between. I think my days of full days tutorials and full days demo’s are numbered.

I totally forgot to take pictures on the day, but the class was amazing and all of their projects were fabulous, many of them were just needing the guidelines and the confidence to do it. I’m thinking they will be Promarker experts within a few weeks of practice.

So here is a peek of what we did.

We covered lots of topics from hair colouring to drop shadows and backgrounds to curved shading.

Thanks Mo “ Mo’s Digital Pencil “  and Just Inklined for allowing me to use a couple of your images.

So on to the winners of the Tutorial Video's.

114. Eve Hammond and 433. Fiona

If you could both drop me an email with the subject marked as Promarker Video Winner and include your details I will pop them in the post for you.

Back to School with Spectrum Noirs

As a few of you had asked my opinion on Spectrum Noirs I thought it would be nice to road test them and give them a whirl, so here goes.

Firstly an image coloured with them.

Back to School by Mo’s Digital Pencil  was my image choice to try out the pens, one of the first things that I notice about the pens was that the nib needed to be primed by that I mean scribbling on a scrap piece of card to get the ink through to the nib, this ensured it would be wet enough to blend colours successfully, I also got best result by laying down the light shades first then building up the darker areas and then going back to the lighter shade and dragging from the dark through to the light shade.

In honesty a good value for money pen and can’t wait to see more shades in it.

For me the downside to the Spectrum Noirs has to be this….

My husband Chris thinks that he has shares on them ha ha.

They won’t stop me using other brands I still love my Promarkers and my Copic pens instead I will use them alongside my others and they do deserve a place alongside them..

Today’s The day

I have everything ready, tables laid, food for lunch and cake, now that is a must, nothing finer than a bit of sugar rush to keep you going, all the little packs made up, and I’m ready for a day of colour.

I can’t wait to get started and I know that those who are coming a feeling the same way, tutorial videos to take home as a reminder of how to do everything taught in class.

I’m hoping to get a few photo’s of the busy class and how they get on.

Now for those of you that can’t make it I do have a giveaway of 2 of my Tutorial Video’s.

You’ll need to get your name in quick as it ends tonight.

Come Hither……

I do hope you have some garlic at the ready and I suggest you hang it from your computer screen before you read on.

Come Hither by Mo’s Digital Pencil 

who could resist this handsome Vampire.

Coloured with Copic markers, I decided on none traditional Halloween colours as I wanted it to be a little Mystic in appearance.

It was a bit like challenge Aneka to make the card as both myself, Mina, and Mo were racing to get it coloured up, of course they won as some of us needed to go to work then have a Granny nap when they got home.
