My first post :)



well this is my first attempt at a blog (attempt being the operative word :)), I've seen other crafters' blogs and how they show their work and i thought, "well maybe i should give it a try".




I don't have any particular favourite crafting tools or stamps, but I am liking ProMarkers and The Greeting Farm stamps. I was introduced to ProMarkers at a crop and have loved them since.
Here's a card i made using both products. It was for my son's teacher after he left reception at the end of term.


I also used Anita's square cards and envelopes and ribbon,
black Stazon inkpad,
red Core'dinations card
buttons from the following docrafts Capsule sets: Verde, Red Hot and Sunshine.

The ProMarker colours i used were:

Skin: Satin, Blush (O729)
Eyes (eyeshadow): Lilac (V327)
Hair: Caramel (O727)
Top: Poppy (R565)
Skirt: Moss (Y334)

*has a phew moment*

well that wasn't too bad...

  3. That card is adorable! Congrats on your first fantastic blog :)
    I've never used promarkers (my son uses copic pens and I 'borrow' them sometimes)... Think I'll keep tabs on your blog see if I can pick up a few tips on Promarkers and I might invest in some.
