Captain Thunderpants

The challenge this fortnight at I ❤️Promarkers is

 'Birthday'

and the sponsor for this challenge is Dr Digi's House of Stamps with a prize of 2 digital images of the winners choice.

For my design creation I have used the Dr. Digi's House of Stamps Captain Thunderpants image, such a cool image and so much fun hahaha.

The image was coloured with Promarkers and then I designed the star burst sentiment on Illustrator and then also coloured with Promarkers.  For the background I used some Union Jack paper I have had for ages and die cut it with a jigsaw die, the pieces were then mounted on dark blue paper.  Up until now the card was going quite well but I had some stray ink on my working mat and only discovered that when I lifted the card blank up grrrrrr - ended up stamping the back of the card to hide the small spots.  Now I am not sure what planet my head then went off to but think it might be because I enjoyed stamping the back but I decided to stamp the red backing paper I had used to cover the front of the card - I know it does not really match the theme of the card but it is the only large suitable for males large stamp I have.  Overall I do think the card has a super hero look about it, hope you do too :)

Promarkers used : - sunkissed pink, dusky pink, blush, ivory, warm grey 4, crimson, ruby red, royal blue, china blue, ice grey 4 3 & 1, gold, tulip yellow

Snow Fun

The challenge this fortnight at I ❤️Promarkers is

 'Christmas'

and the sponsor for this challenge is Dr Digi's House of Stamps with a prize of 2 digital images of the winners choice.

For my design creation I have used the Dr. Digi's House of Stamps Snow Fun image.  The sentiment was added digitally and then printed with the image.  I then coloured the background with watercolour paints.  With that done I then coloured the image and sentiment with Promarkers and added white heat embossing powder to the tops of the letters and the hat along with some clear stamped snowfall for that little bit of texture.   The snowman was coloured with very pale blue/grey for the shadow areas and finished off with a clear glitter pen for some yummy sparkle.  Finishing off I used a snowman image and stamped my backing paper with silver then die cut the snowflakes out of white glitter paper.
