I picked up this clear stamp in the run-up to last Christmas, but I never got around to using it. I rarely buy "scene" stamps — I generally prefer to build my own scenes — but I thought this was cute. The card layout is simple: a layer of matching patterned paper, a strip of… Continue reading Winnie’s Christmas wreath
And so we reach the end of another Daily Marker colouring challenge. Thirty days always feels like a long time at the start and before you know it, you're colouring something for the last day. I started this last few days by adding some contrast and pencil detail to the bunny I'd finished in a… Continue reading The Daily Marker Challenge #11 day 26–30
And we're nearly at the end of the challenge — just five more days to go. Looking back over the week, I'm surprised that I have managed to post every day.

Halfway through the thirty-day challenge and I haven't missed a day's colouring yet (she says, tempting fate). I normally seem to end up doing it at the end of the afternoon after a day of procrastination and avoiding doing the stupid number of things on my to-do list, but I did make an effort… Continue reading The Daily Marker Challenge #11 day 11-15
