The Pencil Case - X = Xanthic (Yellow)/Anything Goes!

Hello! Happy Saturday everyone!

We have a new challenge starting today on THE PENCIL CASE blog where the DT showcase the incredible LYRA REMBRANDT POLYCOLOR PENCILS blog and our theme is Xanthic!!!  Now I know what you’re thinking (in fact it was what I was thinking) what on earth is Xanthic!! Well apparently it relates to the colour yellow.  Who knew!! But don’t worry, if yellow is not your go-to colour you can follow our Anything Goes theme instead. J

This time we are sponsored by the amazing…
………who are very kindly offering an incredible prize so check out THE BLOG for details.
I have to confess to this being my first ODDBALL image but it will hopefully not be my last.  Love, love, love them!
This glorious little girl is called BONNIE BOOKWORM and I had originally intended to make her into a ‘not-at-all-obvious-given-her-name’ bookmark but before I knew it THIS happened.  So the best laid plans and all that! J

Ingredients:
Colouring Card: Neenah Solar White
Paper: Dovecraft
Colouring: LYRA REMBRANDT POLYCOLOR PENCILS (Colours used listed on THE PENCIL CASE BLOG)
Dies: Tattered Lace ‘Pin Dot Squares’ and ‘Tuck In Hearts’ – Sizzix ‘Rectangle Framelits – Tonic ‘Inspirations Sentiment Set’
Others: Gems - Mustard Seed and Pumice Stone DI

So here’s a ‘novel’ idea ‘book’ a place in our challenge by visiting THE BLOG.  And if you want to experience these amazing artist quality pencils for yourself you can get them HERE! And if you already have them and enjoy using them why not share your makes with us in our FACEBOOK GROUP! We would love to see you!

Thanks so much for looking and for your kind comments and have a wonderful weekend!

See ya!

  8. Jane this is stunning! I LOVE the yellow, it's definitely not a go to colour for me, but your work makes me want to give it a go! :o)
    This may be your first Oddball image and I really hope it's not your last! Don't forget to grab a DT code for 10% off any Oddball images in the etsy shop, mine is DTANG10 but you can use any of the DT's.
    Again fabulous project! I really want to run off and buy the heart die, I've never seen it before.

    Thanks for sharing at Oddball Art Challenges and hopefully see you again soon!
