Skin blending!!!!

Afternoon......me again......

so just a bit of an update.......
found anaesome video on youtube on skin blending, search for colouring with claire. She has loads of awesome videos.I had a try at colouring an image by hannah lynn using a combination of prismacolour pencils (pictured) to show the combinations I used. Watch the video and see how easy blending is....

Here is my first result.......




These are the pencils used!!!! (darkest to lightest) + fineliner to go back over any faded black lines





Thanks for looking

Do you believe in magic?

Afternoon guys......

so this is my newest make of the day..... I decided to try doing some designs in box frames, would love to know what you think of this first one........





Here is how I created it......

I firstly created the centre image using the hunkydory dots to diamonds set, I chose this design and used two lavinia stamps using the do you believe in magic phrase and the fairy. Then using the ink dusters I brushed ink from ink pads around the edges of the page and also around the mount in the frame to make it all match. 





Next I added more gems around the edge of the picture and placed the image and the mount inside the frame. finally I added some ribbon to the corner of the frame using double sided tape.

And now we have the final article, as pictured above. 


so let me know what you think

take care and thanks for looking
