Hoppy Birthday!

Afternoon all! 

We've got two new lovely 2 Cute DT members and BOY are they good!

So I'm trying to up my game a bit with colouring and trying some new techniques,

ok what I mean is that I'm not just block colouring which is what I normally do lol

So using a helpful chart a friend sent me, I've coloured in Birthday Froggie, 

who is available here: http://shop.2cuteink.com/Birthday-Froggie-Digital-Stamp-037.htm

Promarker colours used:

Frog - Lime Green, Lime Zest and Soft Lime

Cupcake Heart - Maroon, Fuchsia Pink and Pink Carnation

Cupcake Frosting - Antique Pink, Salmon Pink and Cocktail Pink

Cupcake Base - Ginger, Saffron and Oatmeal

Flame - Sunflower, Tulip and Buttercup

Outline - Twilight Sky and April Shower (Autumn and Spring ltd edition sets)

This whole mixing colours and stuff means my list is a LOT longer than usual lol

Anyway, have great week everyone

So I had a lovely day off work today and thought I'd play with my 

new favourite Tiddly Inks image Fantasy Friends Dragon

I just LOVE him and had great fun colouring him in with my new

autumn promarkers :)

Tag is made up of Distress Inks:

Crushed Olive / Dusty Concord

Festive Berries / Evergreen Bough - Winter edition

Peacock Feathers - Summer edition

I then used a 6x6 mask (swirly vine) with gold acrylic paint to add to

the background, some stamped up crystals and finally some doodles!

To add a bit of sparkle, added some gems along the swirls and

my all time favourite sakura pen - Star Dust (#700)
