Passion For Promarkers - Challenge #1

Passion For Promarkers is a new weekly challenge site that had it's launch this week. It's worth checking out because the prizes on offer for the first week are amazing!!!
There are prizes from .....
Angel Crafts
Joanna Sheen
Dies To Die For
Daisy May Designs
Pink Gem Designs

This is my entry for the first challenge. You are able to use any colour Promarkers this week.


This was my first attempt at 'proper' shading - which I've used on the hair, guitar and boots. The colours used here are all the 5 Cool Greys.
Skin Tone - Ivory and Blush. Blossom for the mouth.
Dress - Rose Pink
Guitar - Red

The stamp used is from The Greeting Farm called Rock Star Anya. It's my first stamp of this type ... and I loved using it. I think I will be getting a few more soon! :o)

I have done some more paper pleating on this card, to create the 'stage'. This time I've created pencil pleats - still made in the same way with a strip of paper scored at 1cm and 2cm intervals ... just folded differently to have the pleats going all the same way :o)

Other Products used : - All from Stampin' UP!
Cardstock ...... Basic Black, Barely Banana, Whisper White, Real Red, Going Grey, Pixie Pink
Pattern Paper ... DSP Real Red
Stamp Set ....... Oval All
Ink ............. Real Red
Punches ......... Scallop Oval, Large Oval, 1/2" Circle
Accessories ..... Silver Elastic Cord, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, Signo White Gel Pen
