My Favorite Things recently released some new Pure Innocence images and I really wanted this stamp all because of her pigtails. How cute is she?
I think most moms with daughters probably did this--grabbed whatever little hair they had and fashioned some pigtails...I know I did!
As I was passing through Target, this book caught my eye and I snapped the photo with my iPhone. Apologies for the bad photo!
I was wondering if I could replicate this look of simply highlighting certain parts of an image with a white Prisma pencil on kraft.
Here's what I came up with. What do you think?
It was fast and I liked the fact that I could use my Prismas again. They've been so neglected ever since Copics took over my craft table and I love the look of colored pencils on kraft.
And the countdown begins:
One week until I meet "Kelly Boo"!
WOW! you never cease to amaze me at your talented and creative mind and how it works! I love your creations and I love the new images! I don't think I can keep up! love the take on the book! it's wonderful! I wish I could have an eye like you! that image totally looks like the book cover! now I want to get me some pencils =) have a blessed Thursday!

ReplyDeleteI can spot a Donna card from a mile away and as soon as this pic popped up in blogger I knew these cuties were yours... love 'em!
ReplyDeleteAnd I especially love the inspiration you pulled from that book cover, your kraft stamped image looks AMAZING! Such a cool idea and one I'm definitley filing away to try out myself one of these days! :)
ARen't you a GENIUS, Donna!! Love your Pure Innocence girls and that faint yellow rings around the circle are lovely!! I also LOVE the white prisma on kraft pp. So glad that you can be inspired just walking by Target...how COOL is that! PS: there's no Target in Canada! My chance of being inspired is even more remote (LOL).
ReplyDeleteOh me, oh my! Are those pigtails cute or what?? Wish that image was digital so I could get it pronto! You did a beautiful job coloring everything, and the Prismas on kraft is perfect!
ReplyDeleteYou are just AMAZING Donna- totally lovin' all the kraft-y goodness! and those Pure Innocence pigtails are to die for.. LOVE them!
ReplyDeleteWow Donna - amazing cards. LOVE the colouring on kraft - is the pink also pencil - amazing density. Love how you got inspiration from the kids book - your mind must work so hard. I never notice things like that...
ReplyDeleteThese are soooooo cute, each one of them, Donna! Sweet little faces. And congrat and hugs today on your win with that wonderful felt cupcake! Love your style!
ReplyDeleteDonna, All 3 cards are amazing! Love the pigtails...!
ReplyDeleteAnd your experiment produced such a cute card.... love it. Love the use of white on Kraft. So funny, I took a photo at the mall last week also, but unlike you, I didn't make a cute card out of it... You are so inspiring!
Regarding the use of Prismacolor crayons, I follow the blog of a lady here in Ontario, Canada.
She is amazing at coloring with the Copics, but she also shades with her Prismacolor crayons. Her images have such depth... In case the link doesn't work, her blog is called "Heavens created this".

Oh and I forgot to say... Congratulations on your win today - your stiched card is fabulous!
