Now then usually I hate clowns...I don't know what it is about them but I freeze or panic and just, just......eugh!!! BUT to me these are not the nasty clowns, these are almost elegant, tragic, soulful and to be looked after. I was a bit unnerved when I had Pierrot images sent to me, but these are gorgeous. There is so much detail I totally lost myself in the colouring. This image is called pierrots lumiere and you can find it here on Rick's Zibbet site. I printed this onto neenah, coloured it with my promarkers. I made a pretty frame with my cricut, white on white. I bought a very pretty frame to take three images, so, this is number one. In my next post I will show the second framed image.
Actually today is a good day. I had been looking through the bon marche online catalogue. I liked the look of a couple of dresses and skirts in the sale so I placed an order. Well they arrived today. I am sitting here in my 4 quid frock and feeling the bees knees. It is really pretty and I do wish I had bought more... I did look in the catalogue again but they had all sold out. My new skirt is so sweet too. I hadn't bought any clothes for ages but I think I'm on a roll!

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, lovely card and does look quite elegant although, I too, am not a lover of clowns, I think it stems from horror movies!!!

Ohhhhhhhhhh I HATE CLOWNS I feel exactly the same as you....as a child I never went to the circus because I was terrified...I am also the same about the pictures with the children crying on them...ohhhhh very spooky...lol but you are right these are fab...mind I dont think I could have the picture in my house, but the colouring is beautiful you are very very talented. Just popped over from DC blog hop. Hope you have a fab weekend. Sharon x

I love a bargain too! The clowns are so unusual and love the colours you have used!
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, there's nothing like a new outfit for lifting your spirits! I've never had that problem with hating clowns, although it know a lot of people are scared of them. Those childhood circuses have a lot to answer for I reckon :-) love your colouring, and the white background and frame is perfect to show off the super image. Maddy x

Yes I know what you mean about clowns. I really love the coloring in of the image and the frame white on white really finishes the card off.
