Perfect day for Dog walking.

Hello - Its been a pleasant day here so I've been out with the pooch on the fields having a bit of a run around. Its muddy but it cleans off so who cares! We have caught up with the family and soon its time for Sunday dinner... Perfect! I really am a girl of simple pleasures.
So I loved this image as soon as I saw it - This is Dog Walking Doreen from Dr Digi and I've tried to create a little scene around her. Not sure the perspective is quite right but its artistic license...

 The image is coloured with copics and die cut with a My Favourite things stitched edge die. I used freebie papers from a magazine that I've had for ages and added a little dark green lace and a banner sticker. I haven't decided on the greeting yet... see what I end up using it for I gues.
 
Hope you are having a lovely Sunday,
Liz (:(|)x
P.S. No mention of the rugby this week - Gutted for England but the team did so well against New Zealand... I think that was our final!

Promarkers Colour Journal & Colouring class.

 I've recently signed up for an colouring class with Kit and Clowder. I've only managed the first two classes so far but they have made me look at skin tone combos for Promarkers. I've found it really hard to find tutorials and combos for Promarkers on line as most are geared towards Copics or Spectrum Noir. I love my Promarkers (Soon to have the full set of both Promarkers and Flexmarkers - Whoop Whoop!) but the class teaches techniques which you can use with any medium.

At the same time -  Some Odd Girl started a Colour Journal project - Just the motivation I needed to record all my colour combos and practice colouring. It was Fate!! And I've loved decorating my Journal with this ace Stamping Bella image and Doodlebug letters.  I punched the edge tabs and then cut them in half and coloured them with Co-ordinated Promarkers. I used them to separate every two pages for each colour.

 
 The lovely Kristy posted a Copic colour swatch YG03 which I matched a close as I could to my Promarkers as Lime Zest. Here's the page I made so far... The image is "Cockatoo" a digi stamp from Some Odd Girl. 

 

So I'm going to share my combos with all you other Promarker users out there. As Some Odd Girl add the next colour so will I. And as I practice I will add more images to each page. My next class is Hair tones so that will be another page.

 Hope you find them useful - I'll keep adding my promarker colour combos... Ive also created a new folder on my Pinterest board. Please feel free to share but please link back to my Blog as I'd love more followers.

Thanks All, (:(|)X
