Nuvo Creative Pens

Did you catch my Facebook LIVE last night with White Rose Crafts? If you missed the hour of listening to me ramble techniques about Nuvo Creative Pens, you can catch up either on my Youtube account where the live has been loaded, or over on White Rose Crafts Facebook page.

During the live, I told everyone that I would post my sample cheat sheets today so anyone who wanted to see my notes could easily digest them. So the following four graphics are my personal cheat sheets with my collection of Nuvo markers.

The above image is all 21 of the blending groups of Nuvo markers that I own. Currently, White Rose Crafts sells 20 out of the 21. The only blending group WRC does not have is the cookies and cream trio.

This image is of my numeric cheat sheet, showing all the colors in (almost) numeric order. I like to see that the rising numbers do not necessarily mean that the color is darker. I also think of the markers by their number instead of their name.

This chart is my comparison chart with my copic markers, showing how close each of the nuvo is to the copic, and yes I do use the markers interchangeably.

Finally, here is my list of custom blends that I really like using the nuvos. These markers do not come together, but still blend beautifully away from their natural pair.

Let me know in the comments below which blending group you would want to play with most. Until then, happy crafting.

Exploring Nuvo Creative Markers

Hey everyone! I want to invite you over to White Rose Crafts Facebook page tonight, March 9th at 7pm EST. I will be going live and exploring Nuvo Creative Markers and sharing some coloring techniques with them and how they compare and contrast to copics.

One of the samples I will be coloring up is this Woodware UK's Happy Easter stamp set. I have colored both of these samples with both copics and Nuvo Creative Markers. Can you tell which is which?

This is the sample colored in Nuvo Creative Markers. I have also used LemonCraft Daydream paper pack to finish the card as well as Kaisercraft Sympathy Words. (The copic card also used LemonCraft Daydream paper pack, but it uses Technique Tuesday's You Did It stamp set.)

                                      Copics are on the right, Nuvo on the Left.

You have to let me know which of the two is your favorite in the comments below.

Another one of the sample I will be coloring up tonight is AALL & Create's Squeaky Friends stamp set. I will be sharing how to not only color the images, but how to create atmosphere and grass.

To create this duo of colored cards, I used the Wild Rose Studio Antique Library paper pack and sentiments from the Squeaky Friends stamp set.

                          Nuvo Markers are on the Left, Copic on the Right

Again, let me know which of the two is your favorite in the comments below.

Make sure you tune in tonight to the LIVE, because these are only a sample of the images I have pulled to color. Looking forward to seeing and interacting you you tonight. Until then, happy crafting.
