I have a couple to show ya here and I'll start with the new soon to be released stamp by Jasmine Becket-Griffith at Crafts & Me and this one is Pearl Swirl Mermaid.
I took a break from the norm with this one and coloured nearly all with PENCIL! Now dont die of shock lol! I've been playing with them and the only way to get better is to use them and practice eh! I put down some ivory and blush promarkers on the skin but the highlights and the rest is pencils. I've used some sakura stardust pens to add sparkle too, she's mounted on starburst stains, the white paper lace is iridescent and if you look closely I wrapped a load of turquoise blending filaments on the base of the card. The pearls I put in with sakura souffle :)
Hope you love her as much as I do! Would like to enter her into...
Sketchy Colors - Blue, Brown & White (2nd entry)
Next up its a water challenge at Crafty Cardmakers, you must use water (a product you add water to or containing water i.e H2o's, starburst stains, cosmic shimmers, water colour pencils etc) For this one I had a play with Jasmine's Pink Lightning and gave her a more grunge look with heavy eye make up. The wings are coloured with sakura stardust so is the dress. The background is starburst stains overstamped with the hero arts flourish stamped with acryllic paint and the black bubbles across the centre are stamped with brilliance. Image was coloured with a mix of promarkers and pencil.
Hope you can come join our watery challenge!

Both outstanding cards. My fave has gotta be the first one, what have you done with her hair girl?! It looks so realistic.
I love them both. Your pencil work doesn't need much practice as far as I can tell - you've nailed it!!

I swear everytime I come over here you have created yet something else to make my jaw drop. In the first card it feels like you are looking right into her through those beautifully alive eyes and the bottom one with the stains is just yummy.
