SN coloring ...

Hi Everybody,

Todays card is created with Spectrum Noir Pens and Pencils

Colors used ...
Pens   CR8  CR11  DR5  TN2  CG1  CG2
Pencils    017  024  027  033 096   from the Primaries set.

The background is Pointillism and all that means is the effect is created with the fine nib being dotted over the paper.

I have used the three colors ... from the ones I used to color the flower ... to  create the background ... TN2  CG2  CR5

The pens and pencils are available from JGD Crafts

  21. Wow! STUNNING! Would love to know where to get the stamp Christina! Love this card ... every detail is just great, and LOVE the colour! Can't wait to see you on C & C again, and I really do wish I lived nearer for your workshops! I wish you good luck with all the above dates!
    Can I ask, will you be making a video on the create a flower daisy? I am in the process of making one with my new dies, but it seems so laborious ... and I am not entirely sure how many times to cut each of the pieces ..... I do know the the petals need to be done 10 times.... but I am not sure about the rest, or even which of the pieces is for setting your petals on, or what some of the other pieces are for! So I am cutting them ALL out 10 times ... apart from the leaves that is! So if you ARE going to make a video, I will definitely be watching it and saving for future reference!
    Thanks for all that you do, and share with us Christina, I for one, very much appreciate it!
    Hugs,
    Karen xx
