Oh I am so envious of you lot! Not only do you have the gorgeous stamps - but you have a wonderful talent for making fabulous looking cards.

I too am intrigued about what you use to colour them with???

I am only just started but I use Faber-Castell Watercolours.

I mostly use prisma pencils and sansodor to blend, though I also use derwent watercolour pencils too. HTH

Same here, although I use Zest-It rather than Sansodor.

Once I can get myself all sorted, I'll hopefully be using my new Copic markers too. Oh and the Stampin Up Watercolor Wonder crayons - have started collecting those, and they work beautifully.

Another favourite is the Colorbox Queue Fluid Chalk and Pigment ink pads, used with a waterbrush.

I've just got a limited number of copics and I'm quite impressed with them as a change from prismas. Massive range of colours! I've been looking at the stampin up markers but did wonder about the watercolour crayons. What are they like? Ever used the markers?

I'm going to a stampin up workshop in a couple of weeks - must have a look

I use Caran D'Ache Supracolour watercolour pencils. I bought a set of 18 to try, just before Christmas in the sale at WHS. I was so impressed with the high pigment content, they are so smooth to use and the colours really pop when you use a damp paintbrush on them. Very easy to blend and shade with them too, I found an online art store that sells all 120 colours individually, so I've added quite a few more colours to my collection since then - skin and hair tones especially.

I got some Copics for Christmas and the airbrushing system which I have yet to play with. Love the way the Copics work though, definitely impressed!

I've not used the SU markers, no. The watercolour crayons I have one set of at the moment, and they are lovely and creamy to work with.

What are these crayons then..where can I have a look?, where can I get those markers....... where can I get some help!


(The girls are looking nice... I've been playing with "Tilda with balloon")

I'm impressed, may have to clear the dust off my old pack of Whispers. Which blending pen did you use?

[Samm]

It's a Tombo ABT N00 one, I got it about 6 years ago and it still works!!!
Thanks for the super fast delivery, I ordered Monday and got them today, hence I had to stamp already!!!

[Samm]

I pressume so, I haven't used the pen in about 6 years though and it's still going well, so that's pretty good whereas my Marvy pens have dried out!
