First attempt with prismacolor pencils!!!

Blog post number 2 today!!  I am on a roll!! 

Well again I have another first for you..... this time its my first image coloured with prismacolor pencils.  I have used them in little for shading with markers before but never on their own.

So here goes......

I loved using the pencils and infact when I have finished doing this I will be back to using them again.  I feel like I have gone back to my roots!!  Hey, who knows...... I might start using wax crayons yet!!

Lilyrose from Magnolia

Hello everyone, I hope you have had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the sunshine we have been having here in good old Blighty!   My OH and son went fishing yesterday and even came back with a touch of sunburn!  I stayed at home, just not well enough to sit beside a lake in a breeze all day but for once, I didn't mind at all!   You see on Friday I had some gorgeous goodies arrive (early birthday pressie and a blog candy win!) and I just couldn't wait to get creating.

When I first saw LilyRose the Dragon from Magnolias Prince and Princesses collection I knew she would have to come and live with me!!  She is adorable.  I hope you like what I have created with her.

I have coloured her using very soft fleximarker colours and dusted the background with a touch of blue chalk.
