Getting back into the swing of things!

Happy Monday and welcome back!
I recently posted a make on facebook and a kind person asked if I had a blog.  Gulp!  Yes...technically.....but it's been severely neglected!  I haven't done too much colouring lately but thought I'd update with what I have done.

First up I'm getting my first pair of glasses and this image inspired the pair I picked.  I love the nerdy-chic look of her! It's cupcake girl from Saturated Canary, and she's part of a faces pack.  I have to thank owner/designer Krista Smith especially because she was kind enough to send me these images after an Instagram contest.

Copics used:
Skin: E000, 00, 21, 11, 13, 04
Hair: E42, 44, 49
Tshirt: black, C05, 07, 09
Bow: B23, 45, 37, 39, 99 and white paint pen


Next up is a card I made for my Nana's bday.  The girl reminded me of Rainbow Brite (for anyone not familiar, a cartoon from when I was a kid) which is where the idea of the rainbow hair came from.  Again, she's another Saturated Canary image called Starshine 
Copic Used:
Skin: E000, 00, 21, 13, 04 R20
Hair: R32, 35, 39 YG21, 23, 25 Y13, 15, 19
Dress: B02, 04, BG07, 09, 78

And last but not least I thew my name in for a contest over at the Simply B stamps fan page.  The challenge was to use one of the fundraiser digis (I chose Prom Rio); and use 3 designer papers, one ribbon, glitter, colours black and gold, and make it punk/grunge.   The prize is the rest of the year's Friday Fun digis. Wish me luck!
