One for my girl!

>> Tuesday, May 14, 2013

We are already a couple of weeks in our 'One for the Girls' Challenge here at Mad for Markers and my card is for my daughter who is turning the big 10 on this coming Thursday.  This will be a sad but happy day...she will be into those double digits; not sure where the time with my baby has gone!

I should tell you that this card nearly didn't get finished, as during the process of making it I spilled a full cup of tea all over my craft desk and to some miracle the card was the only thing that did not wear it!

Also my daughter is always telling me to "stop putting things on it or you'll ruin it" so I have not gone overboard with the flowers and embellies on this one!


Copics Markers Used
Skin -  E000, E51, E11, R20
Clothes & Shoes- RV21, RV23, RV25, RV29
Apron -  BG15, BG11, BG01, YR07, YG06, Y06

Flora's Sitting Pretty

>> Saturday, May 4, 2013

Hi, Deneen here!  It's hard to believe we are already into May.  The Mad 4 Markers Challenge this month is One for the Girls, anything for a female will fit the bill.

Card Size:  4.25" x 5.5"
I used the digital image called Flora found at Funky Kits.  She's so pretty, even before colouring her up, and the great thing is that the shading is already on the image to help you along in your colouring.  I try to keep my cards a little more simple so that it doesn't overpower the image that I took the time to colour.

Copics Used:
Skin - E000, E00, YR00, R12
Hair - YR30, YR31, Y32, YR24
Eyes - B14
Dress - V22, V28
Flower Greenery - YG45 (& Fuchsia Flower Soft)
Ground - W0, W1, W3
Sky - BG0000

Recipe:  Sugar Nellie Simply Adorable Digital Image-Flora, CTMH CS-White Daisy, Bazzill CS-dark purple, light purple, cream & green, Heartfelt Creations Die-Decorative Blossom Corner, Spellbinders-Petite Ovals Lg., Flower Soft-Fuchsia, Martha Stewart Frond & Branch Punch, White Netting, Foam Squares, Pearls, Prima Interlude A Roses, Recollections Roses, Copics.

You have the month of May to join us for the One for the Girls Challenge. There is a prize for the winner in May as well as the opportunity to be our guest DT in July.

Mad for Markers DT Autumn #3

>> Monday, April 29, 2013

Hi All

Well I looked at the calendar and OMG this month is nearly over and I have had 3 Challenges
                                          with the  Theme "AUTUMN" This is a cutie.....
From Sassy Cheryl - A Penny for your thoughts.

I have not been too well in the past few weeks but zoning out in my craftroom I call therapy.
Helps me to not think!!! of the outside world...
I have a quiet a big lump in my breast and it was caused by (They think) a infection, so firstly to remove the pain Drugs.... lots of Antibiotics for infection and this week a Ultrasound, now the swelling is down and not so painful (I gave it a 11/10 pain ratio).  Then they will determine where to go from there.
Pretty snappy person ATM. Being back at my real job helps me as well. But I do love to colour and love to create very imaginative Cards. Enough of the old cow (Thats what I call myself)... Mastitis!!

This card is as close to autumn as you can get. I know my neighbour hates our Canadian Maple Tree this time of Year... So this is me and my dog in the backyard with a tree thats dropping leaves every split second... Think of her having a cry over leaves on her driveway......
THATS LIFE!!! Suck it up princess. Tress are nature. 

Copics Used.

Skin: E000, BV00, E11, R30
Hair: E70, E74,E77
Jumper: R11,R000,E04 (Combination I found at Crafty Mumma and love it).
Shorts: B32,B34,B37.
Shoes: RV29,R46,R85.
Dog (Jack): E33,E35,E39 finished with E30 to blend.

Embelishments my trustly Silouette Cameo my best friend.
Charms my own stock of Jewels.

Yours in Craft
Jane McNally. (Nannymac)
Hope May 2013 is much better month...

Colouring book with Lily Rose in autumn colours

>> Tuesday, April 9, 2013

Hi..I would like to show you my first april project..It is a kind of album.
This idea was given to my blogfriend Rachel.
You can collect cards or other things inside. I was thinking of a copic colour book.
I still have to work on the inside, but I wanted to create different pages with each colour group and perhaps also some colour combo's and trials. At the moment I can only show you the cover.
The pretty digi called Lily Rose is from Sammi ( Mad4Markers ) ,
a lovely fairy on a giant mushroom...
but I have added also some little stamps from Don and Daisy of Marianne Design ( DDS 3334 ) .
Thought they were a fun combo.
This month challenge :  autumn colours..
I have chosen the earth ( E ) copics some warm greys (W)and one YR.
Here is my list of copics used:
mushrooms: W00, W 02, W05, E 31, E 43
leaves: E 31, E18, YR 23
clouds : W00, W02
quirrel: E25, E18, E 57, YR 23

Sunset

>> Saturday, April 6, 2013

Hello, Deneen here to bring you my first Autumn themed post for the Mad 4 Markers Challenge.  I chose to do a sunset with yellows, oranges, and reds.

 Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"
I printed my image onto CS, cut it out using a Spellbinders die, and then coloured it using my Copics.  The image called Swingin' Silhouette I found at Free Vintage Digital Stamps.  The sunset is a super fast way to colour using your Copics.

Copics Used:  Y11, Y13, Y35, YR04, R14

Recipe:  Free Vinatage Digital Stamps-Swingin' Silhouette, CTMH SS-Childhood Portrait, PP-BoBunny Forever Fall 6x6 Collection, CTMH CS-White Daisy & Black, CTMH Ink-Black, Spellbinders-Marvelous Squares & Decorative Labels 8, Corner Rounder, Foam Squares, Copics.

Here is the Mad 4 Markers inspiration image for April's Autumn Challenge. 
You have until the end of April to link up your Autumn creation!
 
Enjoy,
Deneen
