Passion for Promarkers #52 - Mythical Creatures

Oh I've finally got the opportunity to "do" Edward!! woohooo
Tracy has chosen the fabulous theme of Mythical Creatures over at Passion for Promarkers this week and rather than choose a unicorn, or fairy I decided to go with a vampire!
In case you've been living in a cave, Edward is the lead character in the Twilight Saga - and like half the female population I completely fell in love with him when I read the books, although I have to say I'm more of a Jacob fan when it comes to the films (especially with his shirt off, wow!)

Anyway, moving swiftly on before I get carried away thinking about half naked Jacob mmmmmmmmmmmm
This week you can win 2 lovely Mary Hall stamps from Sugar Nellie - Party Parade and Big Bunch of Love
Are you ready to meet Edward??
Image: WS Flirty Edward digi from TGF coloured with promarkers: Satin for his skin, Chestnut, Cinnamon and Pastel Yellow for his hair, Blue Pearl and China Blue for his jeans and Ice Grey 3 for the shading on his shirt, and black for his shoes. I then covered all of his skin with glamour dust to give the effect of his skin being covered in tiny diamonds.

Papers are all from the Papermania Touch of Teal kit that has been sitting untouched since I bought it ages ago, card is all core'dinations, pearls are from Hobbycraft and the punched bits are Stampin' Up word window punch.


Here's Edwards close-up, I've tried to show how his skin sparkles...

Remember to pop over to the rest of the DT for more inspiration, they are stunning. And I'll look forward to visiting all your fab entries this week again.

Upcoming Demo Day

Well I'm pleased as punch to let you know that I've been asked to do a demo day down at Kitty Krafts in Dundee on the 12th June. You'll find all the details over at the Kitty Krafts blog - and I'd love to see some of you there. Its a great day out, 1000 square feet of crafty heaven - Louise only stocks the best of crafty materials. So if you fancy a wee splurge - and want some tips on how to use your promarkers, or even fancy giving them a try - mark the date in your calendar now.


So I'd better knuckle down and get some samples made and try out a few new techniques.
