Party Time!

My second post today!

The challenge this week at Passion for Promarkers is '4 legged friends' so of course I had to make a card with this stamp from one of my favourite sets. I have the bird crazy set and the cat set as well, and use them a lot.

I stamped onto a piece of DP and again onto some specialty (for markers) card. After colouring with

O345 saddle brown

O427 cinnamon

O727 caramel

R766 molten red

B346 azure

I fussy cut and glued into position. The Never too old is from Art Impressions and the happy birthday is from an old set that I have lost the name from. I added some sparkly gems too.

Hello and welcome to my blog

Todays card uses some very old music torn at an angle for the background. I have used a craft individuals stamp for my focal image and coloured with promarkers from the pastel range. I added some soft lemon ribbon overlayed with some soft green lace for trim

Birthday Boy

Hello everyone

Today's card is for one of my grandsons, whose birthday is today. I have cut the design with my Silhouette and added his initials to the sail. He has been learning sailing for the last 2 years, so I thought this would be appropriate.

Sympathy card

Welcome

I recently needed a sympathy card to send to a friend. I masked off an area and sponged on distress inks to make a background. The birds and the sentiment are from A SU set called Wetlands

Travel

Welcome

Today's card is all about travel, something that we now find difficult to do as the flights are so long from New Zealand.

The base is from a masterboard that I painted some time ago, and not sure what acrylics I used. The smaller stamped pieces are from a Recollections set called 'Going Places'

I handmade the tag from some kraft card and used a stamp that I bought in USA by Hampton Art, embossed with black filigree ep

Hello and welcome to my blog

Today's card features a sentiment by Lawn fawn, the flower is an unknown brand, and if I remeber correctly the spots are from The Artistic Stamper.

I have used the following Promarkers

Pastel Pink R738

Dusky Rose R327

Antique Pink R346

I stamped and fussycut the flowers seperately and raised them with mounting tape

Fantasy!

Hello and welcome to my blog

Todays card is a Lavinia image which I flipped to look the other way. Layered onto some pretty pink striped dp and then onto a pink card base. I stamped the sentiment down the side and added 3 pink sequins. Also coloured the wings and flowers with a pastel pink Promarker, and then coated with clear WOS, which does not show in the scan

Hi everyone

The challenge at Allsorts this week is for black and white plus one. I have used a geometric background die in black and layered onto a white base card. My butterfly (from an old Martha Stewart set) is stamped in Mermaid Lagoon DI onto turquoise card and embossed with dye boss ep. I left some of the shapes in to give the butterfly some ground
