Today I thought it would be fun to post the video I did for Faber Castell! I first saw their products at CHA and was mildly curious.. but THEN they sent me their products to try earlier this year and I FELL IN LOVE!
I decided to bring them into the Scarlet Lime shop.. but was SO cared they may not sell because my customers weren't familiar with them either.. and BOY WAS I WRONG!
we can't keep these instock! They are HEAVEN! (you can see how much I use and abuse these! lol)
Wait until you see what we do with them in my upcoming on-line workshop: She Had 3 Hearts! They ROCK for Art Journaling.. and there are so many MORE possibilities with them! You will be even MORE in love! (I am also using their watercolor and pastel pencils too! )
AND because I know you guys will love and and want to buy them.. I thought I better offer a special discount code in the shop for you.. my blog lovlies.. so you can save some money!
Today and tommorow.. you can save 20% off on Faber Castell Products!
use code:
IHeartFaber11
So anyhoo. I did this video for them.. just fo fun.. when I love a product.. I am not afraid to tell the world! lol
I wanted to use ONLY their products too in my art project.. .. so this sweet little girl is all made with Faber Castell Indian Ink Pens, Gelatos and Big Brush Pens (seriously love love love)
She's justa cute little thing on a 6"x6" canvas, Faber Castel Products and a few KasierCraft rubons!
She reads...
She was full of Hope
just wanted to share!
Come back friday when I share with you some special "art" from some special people! can't wait!
Happy Wednesday!
Just wondering what kind of pen you use when you refer to your doodle pen...thanks!

Just got my big brush pens, and watched this video! Now I know what to do with them, and how to use them on my projects. How exciting! My 7 year old daughter is very artsy and watched it with me and loved it! She applauded at the end :) Sure looking forward to the Three hearts workshop!

I love them and now I will have to buy some of those. I just finished two of the canvaas from the SheArt class and am loving the class. I have never been a painter but now am realizing i just might have to embark on that adventure. You are such a joy! Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. I heart you!

Great video and watching it come alive. But I wasn't able to grasp how to "prepare" the canvas before you started everything.
