Tutorial Thursday - Marci with Snowman in no-lines

Hello everyone! DT Lisabeth back on the blog with another coloring video for you today.

This time I'm going to show you how I've coloured up Marci with Snowman in no-lines. It is such a cute winter stamp so it is perfect for a couple of months yet, or if anybody want to get a head start on their Christmas cards already if you're one of those who end up always making loads last minute. I have covered skin and hair in my previous LLLC tutorials, but I'll mention it in this one, too. You can of course follow most of the steps with a normal black outlined image, not having to do it in no-lines, if you'd like.

You can find Marci with Snowman here.

Having problems viewing the video above?

Just click here to view it on YouTube

I have used the following Copics for this tutorial:

(skin and face) E000, E00, E02, E13, E15, E25, R30, R32, B32, B34, B37
(hair) E41, E42, E43
(outfit) V91, V93, V95, E70, E71, E74, E77, E79, W0, W1, W3
(snowman) YG23, E97, N0, N1, N3, C5

thin black multiliner (0.1)

Thank you so much for watching and I hope the new year has started out great for you!

Hugs, Lisabeth

Marci and Luka CALENDAR

I had this idea in my head for quiet awhile now and then when I went to work on it, it didn't turned out the way I thought it would.  A lot of scraps into the garbage can, but here is the result.  I do like it even more than my original idea though :-)  I know I will love having my favorite Marci and Luka displayed on my desk all year long.

I used wooden album covers for the base of my calendar.  The base measures 7" x 7" and the calendar pages are 6" x 6".  The page of the month is displayed on the front/top and the other pages are inside of the frame.  Each page has a side pocket with a calendar tacked inside.  Pullout tabs have the names of the months of them.  What's great about having calendar in the pockets and not permanently attached is that you can use it the next year too by just printing the another year calendar.   And, if you ever get tired of it, you can use the fronts to make cards!!

The pockets can also be used to store some photos/memorabilia throughout the year, and/or you can tuck in some special notes, etc.

I should add that this is still a work in progress.  So far I've done 2 months - January and November.  Yes, I am not going in chronological order.  Luka with Pumpkin was calling my name!!  LOL  

Most likely I will also add something to the covers too.  Still trying to decide.  And you can also add ribbons and twines to the book rings to make them festive to your preference.

Did you know that I hold WORKSHOPS every month?  If you live in Northern California, check it out!!  Every workshop is different and we make tons of different things.  Most if not all of the projects feature our stamps!!!

This is one of the projects for my October Workshop!  To see other projects for this Workshop please click HERE.

OCTOBER Workshop is scheduled for:

Sunday, October 30th

10 am to 6 pm

at Scrapbook Island in San Jose, CA

This Workshop is by invitation only.  If you would like to attend but did not receive an Evite invitation from me, please email me at irina_ca@msn.com and I will add you to my email list.
