Flower tag swap

It has been a long time since the last post here, have to get better at this again... and find more time to create so I have something to post. 

We did another tag swap this month with the theme ''Flowers''

This is the tag I made for the swap

Global Hobby and Pan Pastels

 The Design Team at Scrappeland was so fortunate this month, we where sponsored by Global Hobby og kunst a wholesale company selling craft and hobby supplies to craft, hobby and scrapbook stores in Norway. 

Check out their blog here Din fantasi – fra hobby til kunst!

The products they sent us to play with was Pan Pastels, these chalks are just awesome, so smooth and easy to work with. There is around 80 colors, and lots of fun tools to go along with them

I did a canvas, where I used the Pan Pastels for the background and stamped on top stamps are by Donna Downey and Dyan Reaveley, I also added tape from Tim Holtz that I colored with Pan Pastels. I used Archival ink from Ranger

Here on this card I used the pan pastels for all the coloring after I stamped the images with ink from Memento, the stamps are from Heartfelt Creations, Dyan Reaveley and Stamping up. 

Here is an article Renate has written in Scrappeland about the company and the Pan Pastels(in Norwegian)
