La La Land Crafts 'Faerie Marci'

Morning all,

It’ time for inspiration Monday over at  the La La Land Crafts Blog

This week the theme is 'Pastel Colours'.  I decided to colour with pink because it is my favourite colour (you may have guessed that by now lol). I picked Faerie Marci. She is coloured with Copic Markers and Prisma Pencils. The photo doesn't really show it that well but she has been  blinged  up with some stickles on her wings and a few clear gems.
 
 
Copics I have used are:
Skin: E21, E00, E000, R20
Hair: E43, E42, E41, E40
Dress, Crown, Tights: R83, R81, RV000
Wings: BV04, BV02, BV00
 
Pencils: Tuscan Red, Dark Umber, Burnt Ochre, Black
 
Stamp: La La Land Crafts (Faerie Marci)
Dies: Spellbinders, Crealies
Ribbon, Flowers, Pearls and Gems are from my crafty stash.
 
Thank you for visiting my blog today.
 
Take Care,

Saturated Canary 'Princess Zella'

Hello everyone,
I have had another crafty afternoon today as it has been snowing most of the day,
although it hasn’t settled. There is nothing better than sitting crafting whilst it is
freezing cold outside. I have a busy week ahead of me so I have spent this week
orqanising myself so that all the upcoming birthday cards and DT cards are done.

Today I am posting a Saturated Canary card. I was given this digi for Christmas, but this is the first time I have had a chance to ink her up. It took me hours to colour her, although I think I still need a bit more practice. I am also trying out a few new colours with my copics and it is not quite the shade of purple I was hoping for, I think the problem is it is too pink. Unfortunately this shade of purple doesn’t photograph very well either so apologies for the quality of the photo.


Copics I have used are:

Skin: E21, E00. E000, R20
Hair: E37, E35, E33, E31
Dress: V09, V06, V04

Pencils:  Black, Dark Umber

Saturated Canary Digi Stamp: Princess Zella
Die: Nellies Multi Corner
Ribbon,Lace, Pearls and Flowers are from my crafty stash.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
 
Take care

 It is time for a new challenge over at Marvelous Magnolia and the theme is Floral Bonanza yaay another challenge right up my street.
