Chameleon Pens & Avery Elle Blog Hop Day 2




It's Chameleon Pens and Avery Elle week!  This week the Avery Elle design team is playing with some amazing pens from our friends over at Chameleon.  If this is your first time visiting our blog this week you may want to start here on day one of the blog hop.  These pens work so well with our stamps and dies!  After visiting here, be sure to check out the Chameleon blog for even more inspiration!  Be sure to comment on our company and designer blogs throughout to week to be entered to win one of two prizes - a $50 Avery Elle Gift Certificate or a pen set from Chameleon!  The winner of the Avery Elle Gift Certificate will be announced on the Avery Elle blog on Monday, April 27th. 

Chameleon Pens are one pen blend alcohol based markers, are refillable, have two different type of tips and currently come in 20 colors.  You can check out this quick video to see how these differ from traditional alcohol markers. 

Today Melania Deasy die cut tags using our Gift Tags die and our Sorbet Paper Pad and mounted images from our Tea Time stamp and dies onto them.  Melania used the Primary Chameleon Pen Set to shade and color the tea cups.  Aren't they gorgeous all strung up on top of the Finished Frames card front?  I love the pretty colors that Melania was able to achieve with just 5 different pens!!  She even created a little tea bag gift set using more tea cups and our Treat Topper Die.  Someone is going to love this!



Chunyuan Wu created this next card using the same Finished Frames die, Tea Time stamp and dies and Primary Chameleon Pen Set to shade and color the tea cups.  The patterned paper is from our Neutral Collection.  This is so bright and cheerful!


Thank you Chunyuan and Melania for the fantastic inspiration!  Thank YOU for stopping by to take a peek.  Be sure to stop by tomorrow for more.  Have a great day!

  18. I don't even know how to use Copic pens because I feel like I don't have enough artistic ability to make the right choices. So when I watched the video on one pen vs multiple pens I was both intrigued and enthralled.

    Very lovely tea cup card too.
