Passion For Markers Challenge #842 - Things With Wings

 Hi Crafters,

The weather has begun to dry out and warm up here in Norfolk this week after a wet spell, the plants and gardeners needed it though but I am glad that it has brightened up. I only hope that it isn't going to get too hot! I'm afraid that I don't do well in the extreme heat that we had back in May unfortunately.

I am back again (gosh these two weeks certainly come around very quickly) to showcase my DT project for Passion For Markers which this week, the theme is

THINGS WITH WINGS


I have used this sweet image from our sponsor, Leanne's World 101, called 'Birdie' which I have coloured using my Markers and mounted on a fun cloud frame die cut. The banner is an Apple Blossom die and I have stamped a Hobby Art sentiment using Versafine Clair ink in Twilight. The ribbon is from my stash alongside the fun feather paper. The tiny little bird die cut on the ribbon is from a Marianne Designs set - LR 0206.


are offering 2 digi images to the lucky winner. 
Please remember to use your Markers on your project and follow the theme for a chance to win the prize.
I do hope that you can join us this week on the challenge blog here.

Hope to see you again soon,

Lorraine

Passion For Markers Challenge #835 - Heroes (super or real)

 Hi Crafters,

It's Tuesday and so we have a new challenge theme at Passion For Markers.

HEROES

(super or real)

I've gone with super hero and coloured this older image from Kenny K with my Copic markers. He's called, appropriately, Superhero!


The background paper is from my stash and I am gradually using up my infinite stash of peel-off corners and border stickers. I bought these years ago and I'm determined to craft with what stash I have this year rather than buying new stuff.

I hope you can join us for this fun challenge - please use your Markers and follow the theme to be eligible for the fabulous prize from our sponsor...

who are offering a £15 voucher to the lucky winner!

See you soon,

Lorraine
