Giraffe Watch!

 My friend Lou has been watching the live web feed of the expectant giraffe in the zoo so I couldn't resist making her this card to make her smile. That poor giraffe has been due any day for days now!

I adore this digi from A Day for Daisies - Little Man Giraffe

I typed the sentiment and added several layers of clear Sakura Glaze pen.

I used a mixture of Spectrum Noir Markers & Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers - the Illustrators have a name as well as the code in the list

Moonlight GY1, Mimosa GY2, GY3, GY5

Amber BO3, TN5, Leather TN7

Brown Grey 6 BG6, Flame Red CR11

This is my creation for Day 4 of #thedailymarker30day challenge. 

Spectrum Noir TV DT Team!

Well exciting times! I've been accepted on the Spectrum Noir TV Design Team for Crafters Companion!

 It's a big change for me - using different markers and learning to use coloured pencils and even relearning how to use rubber stamps again! Challenging, but exciting times. My samples will be appearing on the Crafters Companion Pinterest page and on some of their shows on Hochanda. 

These are the first samples I made using the Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens
