Hello Cupcake

I made a visit to Savers this week to drop off some goods for donation and I had a wander around the store.
 
I spied this tin of  72 Prismacolor Pencils ..... wait for it .............  for A$6.99!!!  They currently retail for A$150.00 here in Officeworks ..... BARGAIN!
 
 

I had been stalking the Kit & Clowder website for coloring inspiration for Copics, but as soon as I got home with the pencils, I started planning which Free Pencil Class I was going to try first.

Cupcake won hands down!

The video was easy to follow along - I hit pause every now and then - and it was easy to resume, or even go back over a step.

I am definitely going to do another one real soon - it was definitely a great way to spend a cold & wet afternoon in my craft room.


I am happy with the dollop of cream on top, the straw and the cupcake & wrapper, but I think the pink icing & chocolate sauce could be better.  All in all, not bad for a first attempt.
I have printed off some more, but I think I will try some different cardstock for the next one.
 
Check them out on Facebook or visit their website to see what other classes they have :)

just roll with it

Happy Birthday ..... LOL
 

LOVE this stamp & die set from Altenew, I stamped the skates and die cut them out
 
 
DP from Kassazz (Little Wisdom) was trimmed to suit cardfront using the sketch as a guide.
Edges were roughed up with Edge Distresser tool, then attached to cardbase with 3D foam.
Skates were attached for the front with 3D foam.
Sentiment was stamped directly onto cardfront using Stamping Tool.
