Colouring drama!

Good evening blogworld,

I was feeling quite pleased with myself after my first attempt the other day at no-lines colouring so thought I'd have another go.

This time it's gone Hmmmm!!! I think I might've picked the wrong image for my level of non-expertise, it was blooming hard! So to help me along a bit I decided to stamp another of the same image and colour that in as well.  I'm pretty sure the paper I used to stamp my ordinary image onto, was not Copic friendly even though it was in my Copic paper folder. It did not go well! 

The no-lines image was definitely on Copic paper - it blended wonderfully, even if I was struggling with the image itself. However, the other one - my goodness it just would not go right! I struggled along but was about to bin it when TTT came home. Showed her the two images, talked about my colouring woes and she said 'but what are you worrying about - I like the one without lines the best, but they are both really good'! This from my biggest critic! So I said I'd carry on and turn them both into cards, which I finished today.

Here is the evidence for y'all to take a look at:

No-Lines

  Memento Ink pad:

Supplies used:

Rubber stamp:

Stamping Bella - Uptown Girls: Pattie and Dottie friends forever

coloured with Copics

Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips : Friendship

Dies:

Catherine Pooler - 'Bestie'

My Favorite Things - Fishtail Foundations

Pretty Pink Posh - Scallop Borders One

Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips : Asymmetrical 

Anything else:

Dotty paper

Hobbyhouse rhinestones

fineliner for the doodling

Martha Stewart - essential colours glitter set

white gel pen

I'm not going to do the 'This is what I did' bit as it's repetitive, other than to say the no-lines colouring image went on the card on a large panel of Copic paper and the Memento Ink stamped one I fussy cut out.

Never say that I'm afraid to share - or even over-share - warts and all!

Hope everyone's colouring (if that's what you're into) has gone better this week.

Signing off now,

See you soon,

Sarah

As You Like It Challenge: True Love or Fabulous Friendships. Hmmm, well as you can see it's Fabulous Friendships for me. I'm not sure I believe in 'True Love' - a divorced person here, although happily re-married now. Although having said that, also not got many friends either! Oh my goodness, makes me sound terrible doesn't it, better in real life, honest!
