Freshly Made Sketch 143

 

My order from the new Stampin’ Up! annual catalogue arrived friday and ive been busy playing with all my new goodies, high on my favourites list are the new Blendabilites… here i have used them to colour in a new stamp Blended Bloom…

My card sketch is based on this weeks challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches

I will admit my first few attempts i wasnt very good with the alcohol markers, but im improving the more i use them, i love that i can colour gems and pearls with the markers as their alcohol based – Stampin’ Up! coordination just got better, to see my orginal post with videos about the markers click here

 

Keeping with my pack to stamp inside the card too…

Heres what i used to make my card:

Stampin’ Up! Blendabilites

Well, Im blown away… blown away with my the New alcohol Markers from Stampin’ Up! their call Blendabilities and they are amazing… Ive never used alcohol markers so didnt know what to expect or even if id beable to acheive a half decent result, by no means am i an expert but im over the moon with the results…

The stamp set Ive used ‘So very Grateful’ is going on Monday, in the Spring & Summer cattie, Ive really loved this set and its fab to colour in… perfect for using with the Blendabilities

So theres room for improvement with my colouring but not bad hey.. and if i can do it so can you, The Blendabilities are available now, they come in packs of 3 for only £10.95, and there available in some amazing SU colours, check them out in my online shop..

I based my card design on a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches

The ‘enjoy’ sentiment is from a new set available in the new cattie come Tuesday..
