Passion For Promarkers Challenge - #369 Photo Inspiration

Hi Crafters,

We have a new challenge at Passion For Promarkers using an Inspiration Photo this time.

Here's my card using the colours in the photo shown beneath.

Inspiration Photo

For this challenge we would like you to use at least 2 of the colours in the photo or you could use all of them if you like.

I really enjoyed creating this double z-fold card that I've seen in Blogland quite a lot recently. The image is one kindly sent to us by our sponsor A Day For Daisies and is coloured with my Promarkers of course and die cut using a Spellbinders Labels Five die then mounted onto SB Floral Oval die. The papers are from various MME paper pads and the die cut sentiment is from Tattered Lace. I then decided to add the waves along the top of the band which were cut using a La, La Land die.

Please join us this week using your Letraset/Winsor Newton Markers and show us your beautiful creations.

Challenges I'd like to enter:

Thanks for visiting today. I have been a really bad blogger of late and not managed to get much commenting done. I have been looking after my poor Mum who is waiting for a hip replacement operation and is finding it extremely difficult to get around her home, so I have tried to split myself between my family and Mum. We spent Saturday putting a bed downstairs for her and I fully intended catching up with you all throughout the week but yesterday I received a phone call from the hospital offering me a cancellation for MY op for my wisdom teeth which was scheduled for the end of the month. Thinking it was best for me to get this over with so I will be able to see to Mum without the two ops coinciding I decided to go ahead with it. So as you read this I will be on my way down to theatre, please wish me luck! 

Bye for now,

Passion For Promarkers Challenge #325 - Christmas Tree

Hi Crafters,

December 1st....how did that happen?!

Well it's time to share my DT card for the new challenge at Passion For Promarkers.

To enter please use your Letraset markers on your project.

This week our theme is...

Christmas Tree.

I have used this lovely 'Christmas Tree Fairy' image from our sponsor and coloured her with my Pro/flexmarkers.

A Day For Daisies

The papers are from two paper pads, 'Glad Tidings' by Dovecraft and 'The Night Before Christmas' by Trimcraft, trimmed with a little velvet ribbon. I have used a Marianne Fir Tree Die and the sentiment comes from a set also by Dovecraft.

Then I have covered everything in glitter - the camera hasn't captured it too well, or maybe it was the operator :/ but there is glitter on her wings and around the border plus I added clear Wink of Stella on her hair, dress and the trees near the sentiment.

Challenges I'd like to enter:

Cute Card Thursday - #401 Fairies and Angels

Aud Sentiments - #145 ATG + Sentiment

Winter Wonderland - Add Some Sparkle & Bling

Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge - #108 ATG / Use A Die Cut

Crafty Friends - #19 One for the Girls

Come & Get It - ATG with a Sentiment

I hope you enjoyed visiting today, I love to have you here and read your comments. 

Normal commenting service from me will be resumed shortly - it has been so manic here with one thing and another that visiting you all recently has not been possible.

...but take care everyone!...

...and see you soon,

Lorraine
