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!!!

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card. I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :( Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm. Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project. The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside. I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft. I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....

Fun and Mental Changes
