Augusts RSD Freebies, meet Bitsy and Tworki

Freebie time again at Sparkle and Glitter and Airless  Chambers the other Rick St. Dennis blogs

There was a bit of a catch for the edt members this time, the Boss decided that the horns and the bathing suit of the freebies had to be coloured using a colour that started with the first letter of their name.

Lesson  learned here: Never try to out smart the Boss or you'll be in big trouble........

Cause I said this was easy ,my name starts with M so I can use M&M red,  M&M blue etc...and said that  Rick should come up with something more wicked to beat us ,

so I ended up not being allowed to use any colour that starts with any letter of my name: Monique van Dijk or any colour with a double name.

Just to show you I didn't cheat here a colour chart of my Caran d'ache pencils
I own the big box 76 pencils, unlucky for me fancy pencils have fancey names, most of them have double names.
So following DA RULEZ I ended up with these
 
 
9 pencils including black and white, I hardly ever use black and white so that left 7 pencils, see pic above..........
 
This was challenging, 3 sepia colour and a very light yellow and some orange/red/rust
 
For Bitsy I needed skin colour and a colour for the eyes
 
there was no rule about mixing colours and it turns out that worked great, the primrose and the cornelian togehter looked kind a skin colour and the russet for the eyes
 
see here the result

 
not that bad hey??
I decided to try the sepia colours too

 
 
Same rules were to be used for Tworki, the cutest monster ever
 
I  think I passed the test LOL
now go and snag the freebies on SNG and AC
 
i will enter bitsy in the folowing challenges
