My first card ....

.... using my Promarkers. I've been fiddling about with them, and this is the first image I've coloured. Few observations, first being that I used the wrong paper, it was quite difficult to blend the colours and they bled a bit too, but I'm happy enough with it as a first experiment.

I've followed the lovely sketch on this week's Sugar Bowl - I've used their sketches before, but hadn't used Sugar Nellie stamps, so couldn't enter the challenge. Well this week, as I've got my Gorjuss Girl image, I can enter - here's my card:


There was an extra requirement to use lace. Well, I don't have any lace, so I used my MS Doily "Lace" punch, hope that fulfils the brief!! The papers are Cosmo Cricket Lil Man - I love 'em!!

Thanks for looking - and thanks for lovely comments left on my last post.

You did a great job coloring, especially for the first time. I am still playing with my copic markers and figuring out the shading. Cute card, Julie!

Rosanne said...

Oh this looks great! I'm still learning how to use my copics too!

This is gorgeous Julie, for a first time colouring attempt. You are already a pro. Love the design and colours on the card as well.

If it helps, I find it easy to use Marker Paper, you can get it from most art shops or Letraset. But it is very thin (though durable) it does need to be backed onto thin card when you have coloured it. No bleeding of colours though - and it's cheap.
