Alpha Challenge WK#3

This time round the letter for the Alpha Challenge over @ The Craft Barn is E

I immediately thought of the earth, as I knew the world would take up the double page nicely.

I used my new Derwent Academy watercolour pencils, that I received courtesy of Confused.com as a thank you for the fun Cara I had done on my C page. {how cool is that}

***
Then when I had finished the page I was just flicking through at other E words when I discovered a stamped word I had obviously done, thinking I would use it when E came up, {which I obviously forgot about} But decided to do a little something on that page too and it turned out like this

Just a bit of black pen work but I kinda like it, I might have to re-visit the other letters and do similar pages for them too.
Thanks for visiting, Till next time..
Stay Inky

Alpha Challenge wk1

Over at The Craft Barn there is a new challenge for this year,
It's an Alpha Challenge using an old dictionary. Every 2 weeks they give a new letter, you then have to pick a word and journal/ elaborate on it either in the dictionary itself or using the page in some way making sure the word you picked is highlighted in some way.
The first letter picked was V and here is my page:
V for Voo'Doo

It might seem like quite a dark page, but it's not,
I was looking through the pages for a word and voo'doo jumped out at me, only because a few days ago I was having a bit of a joke with friends, {I am taking part in a year long 'Creativity Venture' and our Sargent Major, er I mean teacher/organiser was giving us a bit of a hard time and we we all joking about getting a voo-doo doll for her}

I used my Derwent Inktense Blocks for the first time,  I wanted a washed kinda look to be able to see the text underneath. The process was a bit messy on the old hands as a coloured the page and then washed over with a water brush, but I had fun doing it and that's what counts.
Looking forward to the next letter.
Till then, Stay Inky
