MIC DT Call


This is my submission for the Make it Crafty design team call. 

I am from Melbourne and love colouring with Copics.  I "discovered" them just over 12 months ago and love colouring images.  I particularly love the challenge that each image presents as I haven't done anything like this before (I came from the quilting world).  For example, this is the first time I have tackled an ocean picture and the sky.  I am quite happy with the way it finally turned out.

I don't really know how to classify the "type" of cards I make, but they are relatively non fuss (I don't like tizzy cards), keeping the image as the main focus with subtle embellishments to accentuate it.  My favourite creation uses the same girl above, but it is a full picture I created with a few digi images.  http://fkpowell.blogspot.com.au/2011/10/mulitple-digital-stamps.html

My favourite MIC products are the digital stamps.  In particular the scenery elements that allow you to create a whole picture that is unique to you.

I would like to be on the MIC team because I love the images with their flexibility to create unique, complete images and would love to help promote something that I love.  The fact that MIC is Australian is an added bonus.

Even if I'm not selected to be on the MIC team I would love some feedback as to how I could improve to be considered in future calls.
