ProMarker Colouring Tutorial by Michele Roos

Hi there everyone!!! This is Michele and I firstly want to apologise for being so late in doing my tutorial (it was meant to be yesterday) but I've had such a problem uploading my videos to YouTube.

I've had some requests on how I coloured the adorable 'Delivering my heart to you' so I thought that I would create this video.

I hope that you've enjoyed the videos and has given you some inspiration on how to use ProMarker pens.

Fabric Flower Tutorial by Michele Roos

Hi there everyone and hope that you're all keeping well. I haven't done a flower tutorial for such a long time that I thought that today I'd share how to make this one for you all.

List of supplies needed are as follows:-

Nylon material or something equivalant

Flower die (I've used the flower layers from Sizzix)

Clear drying glue

Sharp scissors

Leaf die (I've used the Leaves die from Whiff of Joy)

Tealight candle & matches

Step 1 - cut 4 medium and 1 small sized flower shapes using the nylon material. Now with the sharp scissors cut into each petal to open them up a bit more.

Step 2 (MIND YOUR FINGERS)- Light the tealight candle and one at a time using tweezers hold one of the flowers above the candle quite high up. Now slowly start to bring the flower closer to the candle and as soon as the petals start to curl up, quickly remove the flower otherwise it will curl up too much or burn. Do this with each of the flowers till they resemble the picture below.

Step 3 - Now take one of the larger flowers and pop a bit of glue in the centre.

Step 4 - Place one of the large flowers on top of the previous flower and push down slightly, then pop a bit of glue in the centre of this one.

Step 5 - keep layering the flowers ending with the smallest.

Step 6 - Pop a bit of glue into the centre and carefully place some beads/pearls. Put to one side to let it dry.

Step 7 - Next I'm going to colour the leaf shape using my Pine ProMarker.

Step 8 - To make the leaves a bit more lifelike, I've folded some of the leaves in the centre (see picture below for reference)

Step 9 - Then I've folded the leaves the other way. At the bottom of the leaf dab a little bit of glue and carefully place your flower on top. Put to oneside to let it dry thoroughly.

And here is the flower again on my card

I hope that you've enjoyed my tutorial and has given you some ideas on how to create fabric flowers.

Perfectly matching ribbon...colouring with Promarkers by tanjaak

Hello everyone and happy monday! Today I´m going to give you a quick tip on how to always have matching ribbons on your projects. I have used Promarkers on this tutorial but Copics and other similar colouring mediums will do just as nicely. So you´ll need your pens and some white ribbon to get started.

 

Firstly you need to colour your image. On the picture above I have lined up all the colours I have used to colour my image that is from the May Store Stamp Kit - Aladin (1001 Nights). The next step is to choose one (or two if you are having a hard time choosing) colours that you are going to use to colour you ribbon.

I wanted to try out two colours, the lighter blue and the darkest shade of pink I had used. I usually use an accent colour on my ribbon (the pink one in this case) but as there is so little of it in the image (only on the bangles and gems) it might not work. It´s good to try though as you can always use your ribbon on another card or project, especially if you usually tend to colour with the same colours over and over again as I do LOL.

My ribbons from the top down are:

satin ribbon

organza ribbon

cotton lace

and some satin again

And here they are coloured. I used the chisel side of my pens and especially on the lace it´s best to colour on a dabbing motion. Now all you need to do is to start putting your card together. I tried the different ribbons on my card and chose to use the light blue satin one.

So here´s my final card. Thanks for looking and have a great day!
