Lots of Prep

I'm all packed up and ready for my day at The Papeterie tomorrow. And I'm really looking forward to seeing Andy Skinner again. Andy is incredibly talented and has some amazing techniques to create a huge variety of different effects on paper and other surfaces.
So if you're in or around Aberdeen tomorrow then pop in and see Andy at work. 


I'll also be demo-ing tomorrow, so if you want any promarker or flexmarker hints, tips and advice then come see me. If you want to learn more about the new flexmarkers then I have a class in the afternoon where I'll be covering the basics of colouring with these brush tip alcohol markers, and how they work independently of or alongside promarkers.
I have updated my demo/class page - so please check it out, for details of where I'll be demonstrating and teaching.


I thought I'd share a Bella card with you today
Image: Bella Sleeping, from Wild Rose Studio, coloured with promarkers. I coloured an extra Bella and decoupaged her.
Papers are all from the Bella paper pack from Wild Rose Studio, Greeting is from the Birthday Circles set from Wild Rose Studio
Bakers twine - all supplies available from The Papeterie
I'd like to enter her into...
Ditzy Craftymess - Baby theme
Moving Along With The Times - Cute n Cuddly
Stars and Stamps Midweek Throwdown - Cute Characters


Thanks for visiting, 
I appreciate any comments

Oh this is beautiful I was looking at the flexi markers at the nec as I want to pad out my copics and heard that the promarker pinks are much more softer and pastelly than the copics which are kind of remind me of highlighters from school. Is their a pack of pinks or do I buy individually?

This is rather lovely - I especially like your positioning of those gingham panels & the combination of colours you used for the image in conjunction with the twine. You can tell it rather caught my eye!

Hope it all goes well over the weekend.
