Best Friends

This is my favorite card as far as blending with markers so far. I love it.  I have been trying to get alot of practice in. I have seen a lot of beautiful coloring in challenges and on pinterest. Im geting there...im getting there..lol.

What I Have Been Working On Lately

I have really been working on my blending. These to me are some of my best work. I watch a lot of you tube how to's to help me to hopefully get really good. My favorite out of this batch i would have to say is 3rd pic. I guess i should give them names I am a big fan of spectrum noir. I almost have them all. Soon very soon. I have 1 24pk and 1 6pk to go. I catch all my markers on sale.

HIMCR #135 - I'm Blue Without You!

Here is my entry to the HIMCR #135 challenge..I'm blue with out you.

I am glad how it came out. I don't usually use flowers but it need something so i went thru my stash and this fit perfect.

I feel like I am growing and getting better. I am using more colors and remembering to go thru my stash for accents...I have a lot of crap so i am getting used to going thru it and even organizing as i go.

HIMCR #134 - For a Loved One

Doing the weaving on this card drove me nuts. The strips were easy enough to cut but boy I tell you weaving it was crazy. They moved and slid and unraveled. I glued portions of it down thinking that would make it easier. But if I forgot where I put the glue or moved it to high when lifting the strips the the blue wouldn't hold. Let me tell you it was a mess. It took me 2 hours hour to get the weaving right. Just the weaving. And I got mad and I took 2 breaks and I got mad some more..But I was determined. I had a vision... LOL. It took me about 20min to finish the rest of the card. It came out ok. I wish it was neater and more even with the weaving. But to say the least..after I was done I took my butt to bed for the night. I think I watched a movie. This was last week. So here it is. One of my hardest tries so far ever I think.


Pinterest Inspiration

This card was inspired by a card that I saw on pinterest. The color idea was from my daughter. I just asked her to give me 2 colors quick without thinking. And she said blue and purple. She did know what I wanted the colors for. So that kinda made my task a little hard. I didn't think those colors went together well at all. But I did it. Ir came out cute. The plaid paper was cute from a sheet but the rest were scraps. I'm pleased how it came out. And my daughter said that's why you asked me for 2 colors. Its cute.

Now this card was motivated by the fact that I hate this color combo. I have seen the combo on curtains, bedding pillows etc. I don't like it. I think its an ugly combination. I saw this ribbon at meijers and thought what the heck. I am forcing myself to work out of my comfort zone. Step out and start working with colors that I don't normally work with. So this is my take on it. And this card is also made from scraps. And I am pleased with this card to. And look at me trying to put a lil scrunch up with the ribbon.
