Mad For Markers over at Make It Monday!

Hello everyone and welcome to a new week of Make It Monday where we just want you to share your creativity!  This week we are being sponsord by Mad For Markers so I decided to use a Kenny K image that I just love colouring in...

 
 

I bet you're now singing that Cyndi Lauper song!!  Yes, I know I keep using Download Diva (you can get the stamp from Quixotic Paperie here) - I promise to use a different KK soon!  I matched her up with those gorgeous DPs from the new My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Out of the Blue paper pad - quite a manly pad but thought they go well with this cutie's jeans.


I'm very excited by the prize Mad For Markers is giving away this week - a hair and skin colouring guide book  for Copics!  OMG, I wish I wasn't on the DT now - I want a chance to win this!!!

The book has pages (A6 size) with the faces shown on the cover printed inside .. on each page one is coloured and tells which markers were used and the other is black and white.. free for you to colour/ practise on! They are printed on Xpress IT blending card and will be available to purchase through the webstore by this Friday for $5. Coming soon is a sequel on colouring people (clothes)!

I bet you'd love the chance of winning this!!  Well, the more commenting you do on other entrants' posts, the more chance you have - get commenting!!  Or of course you can just enter the MIM linky party for a chance to get showcased next week - sweet!

Have a super Monday everyone - hope it's a good start to the week!

Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Out of the Blue paper pad
Stamps: Kenny K Download Diva (Quixotic Paperie here), Raindrop Echo Designs Fast Lane sentiments
