Creative Uncles Theme: Cars

Creative Uncles Presents: Cars 

I am very excited to be asked to be part of the Creative Uncles Design Team. This is the first time for me being on a DT Team. 

This is our initial launch for January 2020.

The theme for January is Cars. What a great segway for a guy making a card right ... LOL 

I hope that this card will give all of you a wonderful idea to make a card for any male in your life.

I am still learning my colouring techniques but I hope that as time and experience come I will develop more skills and I work very hard at getting better. I do take classes at Kit and Clowder. Alyce is an amazing teacher and even a more beautiful soul. 

I coloured this digital image from one of the Kit and Clowder classes called Christmas Surprise. I put my own spin on it as you can see. I used a combination of Caran D' Ache pencils and Poly Chromos. I also used some items from the Creative Memories collection to add the saying and the gears etc. 

I hope you like my creation.

Cheers, Shawn

I keep forgetting to put up my finished pieces. 

So I have been looking for a sports-themed item I have to do for my DT. I came across this Dr. Digi football guy. I think he is hilarious! I had so much fun colouring him. I hope you like him too 😉😂

I hope he puts a smile on your face 😁
I used lots of techniques I have been learning from Alyce (Kit and Clowder) too. I used Prisma Pencils.
Have an amazing weekend everyone.

Cheers, Shawn

Something Special for my Mom

I have worked on something for my Mom. It is the first time I have done a greyscale piece. I used Caran d'ache pencil crayons and Poly chromos. It was interesting to do. I tried some techniques. I hope you like it.

To Have and To Hold 50 Years!!

I am sharing something today that I made special for my wife's parent's 50th Anniversary. I wanted to do something special for them. I remembered a stamp that Kit and Clowder used from Tiddly Inks. I believe it was called Love.

I dramatically changed it to reflect an anniversary and not a wedding. I am really happy with how it turned out. I hope you do too. Their Anniversary celebration was November 2nd. 

They absolutely loved it! I am so glad as it was my first item I made for a family member and something they will hopefully cherish forever.

Cheers, Shawn

First serious Magnolia Creation!

Thank you Card 

Well this is my very fist serious attempt at Blogging.... LOL!!

I use to own Magnolia-licious and just recently sold it to Swedish House Crafts in the UK

I wanted to always try and learn how to colour and make cards. So here goes my journey into this world of crafting and colouring. 

I would like to thank all the people who have supported me in this new chapter in my life and I would like to start sharing my work as I take this new journey. 

I hope you all enjoy this first one.

Cheers, Shawn
