Hiya I have been waiting ages to colour this one ,I think she is so pretty I have coloured her with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card...The frame is a shop brought chip board frame which came in two pieces.I covered the front with glitter paper from First Editions Desert Blooms and used some torn off cuts from a piece of paper from their Mulberry Kisses pad to bring a bit more colour and texture into the frame.For the decoration I used Burlap ribbon and some pretty floral lace ,I backed the lace with the ribbon at the bottom to make it stand out more ,but used it as a band as you can see and a bow on the top.To finish I added some shop brought blooms and added pearlescent roses to the center of each one..I would have added acetate to cover the picture ,but it photographs better without..
The frame just cost a pound ,and could make a lovely gift or a special card, a keepsake for a special birthday or wedding etc..you can use a coloured image or even a photograph to make it special ..its will make someone smile that they have something so bespoke and made with love too ..Thank you for visiting :)xx

I love her and the way you colored her. I'm looking for some new pencils would you recommend Polychromos? Have you tried others? Thank you for sharing her. She's lovely.
ReplyDeleteHiya Gabriella..Yes I would recomend the Polychromos..I have thee Prismacolor Pencils too and have tried other brands but none respond like the Polys they layer beautifully and are really creamy and smooth to use ..I saved and brought the 120 tin as it works out cheaper per pencil ..and I like to have a larger colour palate to work with too....When I started I was nervous ,I used fluid a lot ,but now rarely use it as I have become so confident with them..I love mine and would not be without them..Goodluck..if your on FB ,have any questions friend me and I can help xx
