Colorista Dark and Delightful!

Hello to all.  I was delighted to be able to work with the new Spectrum Noir Colorista Dark embossed pads and the stunning Spectrum Noir Colorista Metallic pencils.




 This exciting range will be available in the UK from Monday, 27th February – you’ll see it live on Hochanda in the evening! The range will make its US debut on HSN Wednesday, 8th March. 
There are three new 16-page pencil pads.  Two are 6″x6″ and one is a tag-shaped pad, all of which feature artist-quality black paper with thick-spot UV.
The metallic pencils are packaged in a 12-pencil tin. They create a dramatic effect on the black paper designs, with beautiful shimmering results



This project features one of the Colorista Dark pages, coloured with the metallic pencils.  
The Background is created with silver metallic pencil. 
All of the die cut detail has been cut from metallic pencil coloured Colorista Dark pages. You can clearly see the wonderful shine on the embossing on both the main image and the die cuts. 
It creates a 'stained glass' effect for your colouring.  
These pads and pencils really are a fabulous addition to the Colorista family.


   Happy crafting fun to all.

Spreading the Colorista Love!

Hello to all.   My daughter Emma is interested in mandala patterns and has had her eye on my Spectrum Noir Colorista Marker Pad - Eastern Promise.   She took it home the other night, along with some of my markers and had lots of colouring fun.  
Here is her first ever colouring.  I think she did really well!



 She is thrilled and rates the pad and the pens as awesome!  
She was particularly impressed by the quality of the paper in the colouring pads.  
This project is destined to become the frontpage of her journal!



Wishing happy crafting fun to all.
