Fairyopolis sparkle


 Hi all I have been practicing my colouring technique with my spectrum noir pens. I decided to choose this Fairyopolis image from Crafter's Companion. I must say i'm not 100% sure of the colours or colouring of this image. But hey ho I've made it into a card and this is it.



Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog

Hi Rachel, Gorgeous card! Love this backing paper and beautiful image. Your colouring looks good to me ... it does take time to learn the technique and what colours blend well together. Practice makes perfect. I have been colouring with them several months now and i'm still learning ... I also colour with Promarkers and Copics and find you need to use a slightly different technique with Speccies because they are more inky. Hope that makes sense. I am sure with the help of Leann's DVD and practice you will soon become more confident with colouring.

This is the first one of their classes I've done and I was overall I was quite happy with it but I know a few areas where I could improve. Right then here's the coloured image.  The image is by Conie Fong and you can purchase them on Etsy. She has lots of other lovely images to choose from. Right then now for the completed frame. The frame started as a white frame which I painted with black gesso and then once dry added colour to it using dyna paints from pebeo and then some silver gilding wax. I then sprayed the frame to form a protective coating with Spray and Shine from Crafter's Companion.  I love how it have turned out and hope that my niece will too.  Right I'm going to enter this into the following challenges: ...
