I've been thinking about it for a while and have decided that now would be a good time to start posting some of my stash of coloured images on the blog. I'm not making so many cards these days — too many already in the stash — but I do still enjoy sitting down and… Continue reading Just coloured: Aurora belle of the ball
The last three years I have made "clever" cards for my other half's birthday — twist and pop, interactive, and tunnel — but nothing had inspired me for this year. I had a hunt around Pinterest and really nothing was sparking any ideas. So I had to go back to basics. I've had the Lucy… Continue reading Voyage to Venus
Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #29 There was so much bright colour in the last card that I just had to calm it down for this one. I wanted to go monochrome but I'd already done the raccoon in greys, so I went for a more sepia tone instead. And I love how it… Continue reading Sepia star
Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #21 Another girl digi — quite an old one — from The East Wind and another attempt at non-Caucasian skin. Once again I started testing with a combo from Sandy Allnock's human rainbow but ended up tweaking the selection to something that seems to work better with the way… Continue reading Girl on a leaf
Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #16 I try not to rely too much on the same Copic marker combinations.

And quite often if I use someone else's combination it never looks the same; everyone colours… Continue reading Desert fairy
Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #12 I have a tendency to end up with a lot of contrast and strong colours when I'm colouring on auto-pilot with my Copic markers: the rabbit in the rain is a good example. Don't get me wrong, I do love that style of colouring, it's just that some… Continue reading Meditation
Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #10 And at the top of the bookaholic's pile of hair is a kitty cat. I used the same technique for the background texture as on the coneflowers: a piece of kitchen roll moistened with 0 refill dabbed lightly all over. It's a simple way to add subtle but… Continue reading Cat on hair
Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #09 I coloured the full version of this digi stamp for the Daily Marker Coloring Challenge blog hop back in 2016. It’s a big image and it was easy to get two ATC-sized sections out of it. This first one focuses on the face and only hints at her… Continue reading Bookaholic
