Challenge - Sketch and Recycle

Another birthday card . This is for  a couple of challenges.

Catch The Bug - Sketch Challenge 103
I Love Promarkers - Pink and Purple


The image is a digi stamp from Bugaboo, called Ava Cupcake and isn't is just adorable! I love the Ava and Decan stamps! Anyhoo, it's coloured with Promarkers. The photo doesn't show the colours up to great, I need to take another one in daylight I think.

Sugar Bowl Challenge - Sketch and Paper Piecing

Here's my entry for this week's challenge over at The Sugar Bowl.


There's a sketch to work from, which I've chosen to rotate as it fitted with my image better, and an optional theme of paper piecing. I've paper pieced the dress and apron. I always forget how awesome paper piecing looks so I must make an effort to do more. The rest of the image is coloured with Promarkers.

Gorjuss Calendar #3

Another 2012 calendar made with a Gorjuss stamp, coloured with Promarkers. I really love how the backing paper looks on this.

Promarkers Ultra-fine nibs

As awesome as Promarkers are, there's sometimes a little bit of some stamped images that are a bit too small for the  fine tip end of the marker. Well, here's the answer!


I got these Ultra-fine tips a few days ago and have only just got round to doing more than a quick doodle with them. Colouring small areas and adding fine detail is so much easier now!

Basically, the tip just clicks on the fine end of your Promarkers and then after a little scribble on some scrap paper, the ink flows as normal. They can be cleaned so you don't need one for each pen you have. I've got three of these and it seems to work fine. I've even found that if you're just changing to a different shade or a similar colour then as long as you scribble a little bit before applying to your image the colour turns out fine.

They come with their own lid so you can leave them attached to your pen if you wish and they're even fine enough to write with.
