Pro-markers put to test !

Hey guys !

recently i was gifted a whole pack of pro markers !!!!

(On my special day , with love :) :) my heart is melting :D )

Well this makes me really happy :D

So i sat this time and tried my 1st ever pro marker coloring

well, i agree i need practice , but i see potential !!(in myself :D )

Here is what i made for a recent order.

This is a tiny card that has a loving Poem inside

from someone to his wife :) (so romantic !! )

here is the mini card

I used my Gorjuss stamp set UK for the image :)

isnt she awesome ??

Yes yes i know :D i have kept her under wraps for a long time and she had been itching to come out :)

I am not so sure abt the hair but the dress came out really well :)
I didnt see any tutorials for this but i really loved the feel of promarkers when i put them to use
The paper i used was just as random as anything
but the color still blended well , it sort of spreads to all sides frm the point u have used it.
so i refrained from using it exactly @ the corners just near to them and my work was done .
I used the shade of yellow 1st and blended it with green on top.
I have to thank Tejal for this set :) who helped put together the promarkers set.
Now im just gonna order more :) :)

Next im going to try these on COLD PRESS PAPER
Lets see how that goes
i have high hopes.
have a g8 day ahead:)
Cheers !!
