I enjoyed all the Teddies when I managed to have a look. Please excuse my lack of comments. I seem to have said that a few times this year. It is a good job my fellow teamies are so kind and supportive.
Our theme this week has been chosen by Christine and for this one I went back to parchment:
Followers of my Blog will know that I really dislike using felt tip pens for colouring on parchment. Many 'parchers' are very successful with this medium but not me. But on this occasion I used some new pens I had bought - Docrafts Artiste Dual-Tip Brush Markers. I used them on the back of the parchment and found that they went on very smoothly and strongly without leaving lines.
I hope you all have a very Happy Christmas and I will see you next week.

p.s. Update. I made it to Bristol. My GP agreed that I could go so my sister dashed up the M4 and kidnapped me.

Hi Carol
ReplyDeleteLovely card, I think I must try a bit more colour on my parchment, I don't find time to do enough parchment not to self do more next year. Perhaps I will try these pens and see how they work. Colour on parchment I just avoid by only doing white work, and that does not always work out every well, thank goodness for butterflies.
I hope you have a lovely Christmas down in the West Country the weather must have known you were coming as most of the West Country is having problems with water.
Take care
Margaret
A beautiful bouquet Carol - those new markers were a good find. Glad you managed to get away. Merry Christmas.
