Day 6

Hello,
     Just a quick pop in for day 6 of The Daily Marker 30 day challenge. Today I decided to work with my Zig Clean Color Pens. I cut some Strathmore Bristol paper to 4 x 51/4 then using my MISTI I stamped on one side of the paper the flipped it and stamped on the other side so the flowers would be framing the sentiment.
     I used my Zig pens and a paint brush to water color the flowers and leaves. Stamped the sentiment in the center and mounted it on a blue card. That it!

Products used:

Strathmore Bristol paper

Altenew Best Mom (flowers)

Altenew Fresh Freesia (sentiment)

Kuretake Zig Clean Color real Brush Pens

Ranger Archival ink black

I will be adding this card to:The Daily Marker 30 Day challenge (Day 1)
Thanks for stopping in.

The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge-(Days 4&5)

Hi All,

      Had some difficulty linking my project to Kathy's blog, but I finally figured it out. I guest when I read the first blog I forgot that all Links are to the first 30 Day challenge blog. I did post them on the 30 Day challenge Facebook page, but now that I know where I'm going I will be posting through my blog post.

       So (Day 4) was a Penny Black slapstick/cling and my Altenew markers. I haven't used the markers much yet but after watching several YouTube videos I went to work coloring this beautiful stamp. When I got done I decided to fussy cut it out, I love to fussy cut, and pop it up on a spellbinders A2 card creator die. I was very happy with the result.

Products used:

Penny Black #40-428 scented beauty

Altenew markers set A

Spellbinders Card Creator #S5-218 for A2 card

     For (Day 5) I went back to my Prismacolor pencils to see if the card I created with them on day 3 was a fluke. LOL. I used another Penny Black stamp and went to work. This one, I got for Christmas from my Hubby and I just love it. It has several different flowers and leaves so I could use lots of color, I was very excited to see how I would do.

     After I finished coloring it I went back and used my black pencil, very sharp tip, and  outlined the leaves and some of the flowers, this made everything pop and I love it.

I then added a few extra touches. I used my Tim Holtz brick stencil and some distress in to create a wall in the background and a sentiment from Penny Black. I used foam to pop the whole thing up on the card.

Prismacolor pencils #The Daily Marker 30 Day

Hello,
      Well here it is day 3 in, The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge. I got a set of 132 Prismacolor soft core colored pencils for Christmas, from my wonderful hubby, and to tell you the truth I was having a little trouble getting used to them. Water coloring is my go to, but I really wanted to expand my knowledge and do something different.  So, I watched some YouTube videos on Prismacolor pencils,
I saw several different ways to use these pencils and picked the one that I thought would work best for me. Then I got to work. For a first try I think I did well.
      I used 3 shades of red and 3 shades of green and a black. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out and I will definitely be working with my pencils again soon.
       After I colored the image I fussy cut it out and using my Xyron I adhered them to another piece of card that I had stamped my sentiment and the outline of the flower, I used Distress ink to shade and popped it up with some foam on a gray card.

Products used:
Penny Black divine #40-372 and heartfelt #30-286
