Pirate ship

I wanted to make a night picture with a sunset. I like the sky but the sunset looks like crap. Need to practis on that :)

Anyway. Here is a pirateship. It is about 12cm x 17cm. Made with Faber Castell Pitt brush pens and Chameleon pens. And of course my beloved white UniBall pen :

Christmas card

Made this little piece as a Christmas card. It is only about 12cm x 12cm big.
I used the chameleon pens and a gold pen to color it. The pic I found on pinterest. There was only the pic no link to where to find it. So if anyone knows where I can find this one and similar ones pleas let me know.

Chameleon Pens!!

Hi again!

I got these Chameleon Markers from my boyfriend the other day (been wanting them like crazy) and I absolutley love them! They are so different from all the other pens I have got.

Below you can se the first picture I made with these markers. During the process I discovered various pros and con about these pens. They are

Cons:

  1. Even though you can blen the markes with each other there isnt a wide range of  colors. However, I sam on there homepage that they are relesing 30!! more colors this spring. Awesome!
  2. There are only a brush nib and a thick nib in each color. Sometimes when I made finer details I wished for a thin nib in the same color as I was working with. 
  3. The blender is more of a highlighter when working on dark areas. Would have liked to be able to lend dark color with dark color.

Pros:

  1. They blend beautifully!! I mean, look and the clouds, castle and moon! Lovely
  2. You can blend two colors to get a new color. I blended to get a bigger varaity of browns and greens.
  3. The flow of the brush nib is almost like an accrual brush. 
  4. You can color big areas without having any brushstrokes showing. Like the grass and sky. 
  5. Love the detial marker and the fact that it has two differnet sizes of nibs. 
  6. The blender can "take away" any misstakes you made outside the lines (as long as they are not black or to big)


Here is my first art piece made with these markers. I worked on a scrapbook cardstock paper.
 I have entered this one in Chameleons Marker contest! :D Here is the link:

30 day coloring challenge: day 16

This was a crappy day, color wise.
Everything I tried to color just turned out crappy..  :(

So, I just did a couple of layout background using melted crayons.
Crayon shavings and the  I ironed on the paper with a Parchment paper in between so the crayons melted. Finally I stamped randomly witch different clear stamps and black ink.


At least these turned out pretty good.
