I was extremely honoured to be selected with a few of my design team ladies to have the opportunity to work with these products before launch!, what we hope to do is bring you loads on inspiration, but have you ever thought what you are going to do with all these coloured pages? that's where we want you to take your colouring to the next level, and create stunning, projects using your pages. Here are a couple of mine to show you what 'i've been up to....
FIRST UP just two of the colouring pages from the colouring books , first one from the black and white line pad the second from the glitter pad, effortless blending on these pages!!
then how about making something from them... how about an....interchangeable phone case!
very easy to make, just pick up a clear phone case...this one was £1.50!! draw a template, cut out, colour up and I've added a layer of gloss modpodge for added strength, then how about those funky free standing MDF letters you can buy!, this is done using the glitter pad AMAZING in real life!
again super easy!! I painted the back and sides first with my chosen colour, draw round the letters on my page, cut out, coloured up and used Modpodge again to glue on to the MDF and then a coat on top to seal. You could create names, inspiration words, in ANY colour combination to suit your room, or give as the perfect gift!! now I have more to share but .... be patient lol I will be blogging more over the next few days so please pop back, and don't forget go and sign up to the FREE colouring course NOW!! hope to see you there!!
