LEST WE FORGET

Hello Peeps,

I am here with my piece for Remembrance and I really enjoyed colouring my poppies. I used my Promarkers. I really love poppies and I'm very pleased that they do grow out here in my garden :-D

I used a FB Freebie from DELICIOUS DOODLES  for the main image and Poppy Paper also by DD for the background. The handsome young man pictured in the corner is my late Father at the Burma Star Veterans' chapel on the Isle of Wight for the Remembrance Day memorial service  a couple of years back now.
I loved seeing Father so proud wearing his medals and now they are safe with me :-)
We shall be forever grateful for what they did for us. All gave some but some gave all.

The image was printed out 3 times and then fussy and mounted with foam pads to make it 3D. The red card is from my stash.

Thanks for visiting today.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN COLOURING :-D

Hello Peeps,
I am having so much fun today cuz my new mega pack of Promarkers arrived yesterday AND my set of 120 Spectrum Noir pencils :-)  Well - I just had to play today didn't I ??? :-D
Here is what I made ..............

I used this rubber stamp by Rick St Dennis that I got from a friend and I stamped him with black Stazeon. Then I coloured the Bear using Promarkers, Copics and then enhanced it with matching Spectrum Noir pencils.... sooooo coooool ?

I made a dotty background around the image using three of the orange range Promarkers that I had used on the actual image, then I cut him out with a Spellbinders 'Peppermint Twist' die, and inked around the edge.

I embossed a piece of patterned card to set him on and then raided my snippets box for the other papers and made a die cut paper bow to match.

I used:

Copics - E00, E11, E13, E15

Promarkers - Starfish, Bright Orange, Heatwave, Soft Green, Pressed Leaf, Forest Green, Sleigh Bell, March Hare, Cinnamon, Pineaplle crush

Spectrum Noir Pencils -  15, 20, 22, 89, 91,95,115

I really enjoyed myself and am going to try blending the Spectrum Noirs with mineral spirits next :-D

Thanks for stopping by xx

SCHOOLDAYS ARE HERE

Well - it's that time of year when the kiddoes either start or return to school and it all goes very quiet at home - Yes ?!!
My Grandson is 4 + 1/2  and starts his first full week of school this week and he's very excited I can tell you :-D I expect my youngest Grandson will find it pretty quiet at home now !

I decided to make a little school report card using "Google Eyes Duck" by Creative Bug.

I coloured him with Promarkers and set him on a 3D card type background using 'Schools In Session' by Vicky Day and '1st Day of School' Chalkboard by AllClipArt.

I made it so he can tick the boxes when he was polite/helped someone/raised his hand etc. :-D
