So when I was in America, I took the plunge and bought some Prismacolors.
WOW. I LOVE them.
They were 50% off!!!! I couldn't believe it. England doesn't DO sales like that! We don't even do vouchers. :(
And although my lovely friend Kathy said I should buy the big set, I resisted, and got the 78 pencil tin. (If only I'd listened to her... I want MORE).
So today I had my first real play with them. Delicious.
I used THIS Hero Arts digikit, printed it straight onto kraft cardstock, coloured in front of X Factor (yay!) and assembled. Simple. I added lots of white dots, a la Kathy, using THIS fab white pen. Love the way it pops.
So thanks Kathy and Jennifer for forcing me to buy my Prismas. I am DEFINITELY a happy customer. :)
Oh, and Kathy has an amazing giveaway HERE and Jennifer HERE. Check them out.
Happy Monday. This is a good week, as it's the build up to my half term holiday on Friday! Yay.

Yay, Lucy, so happy for you - and aren't they so pretty all lined up or in a big jar together? :) Your card with blues on kraft is gorgeous! You must come back more often :)
So beautiful and striking Lucy, love this card and so pleased that you took the plunge into the Prisma color pencils, they are so worth it.
STUNNING! Your colouring is fantastic and while watching TV. The white rally does pop out at you and I love the dimension on the biggest flower.
I had to purchase a set of 120 PrismaColors ten years ago for my Graphic Design degree and I still have them and love them as much today. They are a GREAT investment. Your card is lovely.
Really cute!
So pretty! It must have been so fun when you saw how cheap a lot of crafty things are in the US! When I went to Scrapfest me and my friends loved buying stuff and kept talking about the deals!
Boy am I ever glad you bought the Prismas! What a treat it will be, seeing what you create with them! Gorgeous coloring on this card, Lucy!
Beautiful card--glad you found some bargains in US!
Stunning!! Colours are beautiful!
I love my Prismacolors and love what you've done with them here. Kraft always is such a perfect paper to show off whites and brilliant colors--gorgeous card!

Lovely and Vibrant card Lucy. Your coloring looks cool and with white dots it looks amazing. Prisma are great on Kraft...I have to agree. TFS
I LOVE my prismacolors. I love that you can often find them for 50% off. Wonderful card; I can't wait to see more of what you create with my favorites!
I LoVe my prismacolours too! And wish they would sell them over here in the UK. You'll have a fab time playing with them over half term :)
Those colors really pop. I just looked at those pencils today, but they are expensive. I have watercolor pencils, but a very small set and thus limited colors. They look DELICIOUS on that craft paper. WOWZERS!
Congrats on the Prisma pencils. I love them. Such a pretty card with gorgeous, vivid color.
I love my prismacolor pencils too! I can't get enough of them. It's testament to how much I use them that I've had to buy a couple of replacement colours. I've never had that problem with markers!!
:)
Croatia doesn't do sales like that either!!!! sigh...
LOVE LOVE this card!! yummy colours!
xo
So gorgeous, Lucy! I am a big fan of Prismacolor pencils myself. I agree that they are wonderful. Lucky you found a great sale!
Adore your card Lucy, stunning.
Beautiful Lucy - I too had bought a set of the Prismacolors when they were on sale, for my daughter .... I did not get the big set - but I think I will be regretting it too!
