Look at these Beauties
Oh I think I'm in heaven. I have been wanting this set of pencils for Christmas, but I didn't get them, but I got some money so I went to our local Hobbycraft to see what bargains they had, I didn't go in there looking for these pencils but when I was looking through the sale items right in front of me was a 120 tin of Faber Castell Polychromos pencils for £53.99, and only one tin, so I grabbed them quick. The retail price is £179.99, you can get them cheaper but not as cheap as I got them today, I am thrilled to bits, that makes them about 45p a pencil what a BARGAIN!!!!!
Gone Fishing
Hope you all had a lovely Christmas. I just can't keep out of my craft room, I get fidgety if I haven't made a card after a few days lol. This card is for my stash. I bought a lot of Elzybells stamps when she was closing down and this is one of them, he is so cute. I have coloured him with prisma pencils and sansodor, and used some sakura glitter pens for highlighting, and I have chalked around the edge. I decided to frame him and I have used my frame sizzix dies, the DP is from K & Company, which I have mounted onto blue card stock. I then added some green raffia and a button with a fish charm.
