Here's to a long day of crafty crafting

Good Morning, only two more days of the Easter break to go before going back to work. Today is the day that start making fathers day cards. I love the Magnolia Edwin stamps they always seem to come out great. Using colours like orange, browns and blues, reds, greens etc.
I made a card personalised card for one of my customers the other day as he was graduating from the army. Wasn't sure how i was going to put it all together, so I down loaded background paper from the Internet, printed it onto pearly printer card and it came out wonderful. I coloured Edwin using a mixture of Caran D'Ache watercolour pencils, Whispers brush markers, Windsor and Newton block watercolours and not forgetting the old favourites-Stardust pens. (Saving up for a set of copic markers or if anyone as any suggestions to the best marker/markers to use). Using buttons and swirly clips with ribbon with a bit of matting and layering it came together...

Have a happy Sunday..... Tamara
