Relax


I have made this card using a great little penny black stamped image, coloured in with promarkers, layered up on papermania, kanban, HOTP and some metallic papers. I have added a large button that I have coloured with colourbox classic pigment cat's eyes, added a golden yellow ribbon and bows and a handwritten sentiment/tag.

Flower Show


I have coloured this wonderful image from lili of the valley with my promarkers and have liberally added stamped and coloured images from CD's collections, to give the impression of a flower show, mustn't forget the bakes and produce of course. This card is inspired by the local towns 125th Flower Show that is on this weekend, great fun and some superb craft work on show as well as the very impressive fruit, veggies and flowers.

I am entering this card into the Passionate about Promarkers challenge wk 68 - Sweet Treats.

Just like new


I have made this card using this great little Lili of the valley stamp, that there bear just loves his old jalopy! Personally when I look at this stamp I feel there might just be a little bit of mischief about to occur involving a little doggy and the sponges. I have layered up using some of my Pocket full of Posies Stack from DCWV and a lovely ribbon that I found in my stash (no doubt rescued from being thrown out at some time) The cardboard flower I have overlaid with a vellum sun sticker (washing your cars should only be undertaken on a lovely day so you can enjoy the finished sparkling article at its best) also sparkled the edge of the cardboard shape with some stickles. And last but not least I have coloured with my promarkers.

I have made this card to enter the I Love Promarkers Challenge #31 - transport, but it also means that I will have a great little new car, or just passed card ready for use in my cupboard.

thanks for popping over

Fairy Stories


I have made this card using lots of different ribbons and double sided sticky tape to lay them across the card in a pattern. The Whiff of Joy stamp is fantabulous, and I have coloured her in with my promarkers and highlighted accordingly, predominantly in pinks with a bit of dotty ribbon to contrast and golden highlights in her hair.

I have entered this card into the following challenges :-
