Forge and Craft<a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/plotparty?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plotparty</a> this week, day one is CMYK. A simple design I did in Illustrator and converted using DrawingBot, I'm really pleased with how this turned out. I'm getting the hang of using our Posca pens too. The black paper was a last minute inspiration. It was designed to incorporate black as the background, the Posca pens made it easy to plot directly onto the black paper. <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/forgeandcraft?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#forgeandcraft</a> <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/plotterart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plotterart</a>

Forge and CraftFor <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/plotparty?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plotparty</a> day 3, the theme is music. We're really into collecting vinyl so this was my inspiration. Today was a trying day for converting and exporting svgs, and working more with Gelly Roll pens, but I did get there in the end. I already have some updates to this design and I'm thinking about changing out the pens to my favorite Micron ones instead. I used Gelly Roll Stardust Glitter for this design. <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/plotterart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#plotterart</a> <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/penplot?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#penplot</a> <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/axidraw?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#axidraw</a> <a href="https://metapixl.com/discover/tags/heidigoseek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#heidigoseek</a>
