Hello blog visitors, thanks for stopping by. It's been a beautiful day here in Kent, we've had high temperatures & lots of gorgeous sunshine.
Today is indeed Lisa's birthday & I hope she is having a lovely day. Unfortunately, she is not feeling very well. Those of you who attended her class at the beginning of the month will remember she had a virus & was losing her voice rapidly. She is still under the weather, so I am sure you will join me in sending her get well soon wishes. Despite being unwell, she has been adding new items to the website & working on a newsletter, so keep an eye on your inboxes.
Among the new items are sets of six SPECTRUM NOIR pens. These are acid-free, alcohol ink pens. They are double-ended & come in an assortment of colours & shades. Each pen in a set of six coordinates perfectly with each other & there is also a set of neutrals, perfect for skintones. If you like to colour with pens, but don't like the lines & streaks you get with 'ordinary' markers, then try Spectrum Noirs. They blend extremely well & at only £6.99 a pack, they're a very affordable way of taking your colouring skills to the next level.
If you are a complete beginner to using SNs, then Lisa also has Leann Chivers DVD tutorial. It's packed full of hints & tips, step by step colouring projects, in fact EVERYTHING you need to achieve perfect colouring.
The images on the cards I'm showcasing today are Imaginations Decoupage Stamp Sets & Lisa has used various techniques, including colouring with Spectrum Noirs & paper piecing.
Before I go, I'm happy to say that the winner of the blog candy, has received her goodies & hopefully, she is having fun playing with them. Brenda, if you would like to show us what you created, email me some pics & I will post them here.
Lisa's next classes will be June 1st in Maidstone, which will be a nice start to the Jubilee weekend. I shall find out if there are any spaces available & let you know.
I hope to be back soon, so until then,
Happy Crafting!
Kirsten
