My New Adventure

I FINALLY got them!!!!! My new Spectrum Noir markers arrived yesterday!!! I'm super excited to be using these new alcohol ink markers and I'm even more excited for the privilege to play along with Spectrum Noir's design team!!!

When I got the news that I had been accepted to the design team, I did a touch-down dance (seriously, I was like full-on in an end zone)... you can imagine how badly I wanted my hot little hands on these new toys. And at around half the price of other alcohol ink markers, I knew that this new habit was not going to break my bank. AND LOOK WHAT I DID WITH THEM.

The images are from The Greeting Farm Sweet & Toxic set and the angel sentiment is from Tickled Pink Stamps. The colors that I used for the adorable little girl were:
Hair - EB8, TN8, TN5 and CR2
Skin- FS1, FS4, FS9 and PP4
Dress - DR7, DR5, DR1, CR6 and IG1

The colors I used for the boy:
Hair - EB6, TN5, TN2
Skin - IG's
Jeans - TB4, TB2, BGR4
Shirt - ??? (sorry gang, I forgot to write down the colors I used before having to pack up my new pens!!! Honestly, why CAN'T we color anytime or anywhere??? LOL!)

Ok, so that is it for the introduction to my new adventure into Spectrum Noir alcohol ink markers. I'm very pleased with how my first projects turned out and am looking forward to what I will create with these babies in the future. As always, I'll keep you all posted. Anyone else out there using Spectrum Noir markers?

CORRECTION: the cost is TWO dollars each!!!

Past 7 Days....

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower...

This originally started out as a faux book box. I painted the spine black using acrylic paint and covered the rest using paper from the DCWV Immort...

Another Oldie But A Goody

Oh how I missed you! This is a mani I haven't done in quite some time and I JUST realized that it NEVER got posted on my blog the first time I did it. I can't believe it! It's one of my favorites... and NOT just because it's a Halloween mani (mostly, but not entirely). I like it because of all the Konad image plates I get to use to create this wonderful Halloween collage on my nails! So here it is for the first time here on FunandmentalChanges.com!!! And check out my thumb.... My thumb is sort of an exception to the rest of the manicure because the scary jack-o-lantern is off of a "fauxnad" plate, but the rest of the Konad images plates are M3, M17, M18, C01, C04 and C05. Wow.... that really IS a lot of plates!!! So my base coat is Nail Aid's Pink Growth Therapy, then one coat of Orly's Mirror Mirror and then the various images stamped in Konad's special black and white polishes. I LOVE THIS ONE!!! The inspiration for this ...
