Feminine

Hi crafters,

It's time for a brand new challenge at Passion for Markers and this week, our lovely Kitty has given us the fab theme of 'Feminine'. 

We are kindly sponsored by JMC Designs and they are offering the lucky winner 1 digital collection from their online store.  A fantastic prize as all their digis are just gorgeous!

The Design Team were kindly given one of their images to play with and I have used this one called 'Poppy' on my card.
I coloured this fab image with my promarkers and paper pieced the body with the same polka dot paper as the flowers - just to have everything co-ordinated!  I cut an aperture and put some nice feminine paper behind it and then fussy cut the image before mounting onto the card.  I diecut the sentiment twice in order to make it stand out and also embossed the backgrounsd card.  I diecut a frame for the aperture and added some matching ribbon with a pearl slider.

Well I hope you can find some crafty time to enter this week's challenge and don't forget, you can use any of your markers for your creation - just make sure you follow the theme to be eligible for this week's great prize!
Thanks for dropping by and I'll look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations on your blogs.
Hugs, Karen x

Celebrations

Hi Crafters,

It's my turn to choose this week's theme for the brand new challenge at Passion for Markers and I've gone with 'Celebrations'.  Nice and easy as it could be a creation for a Birthday, New Baby or any special occasion!  

We are kindly sponsored by Crafty Sentiments Designs and they are offering the winner a choice of 3 digi images from their online store.

We were lucky enough to have one of their images to play with this week and I chose 'Stanley Bear Happy Days'.
I coloured the image with my Promarkers to match my papers and added lots of glitter to the bubbles!  I added a small heart cut from one of the papers to the bottle and also found a little wooden bottle to add to the card,  The cork was a freebie die from a Craft magazine which I thought was perfect!!  The centre of the flower is a button I found in my stash which was a great match!  Some pearls and the stamped sentiment were the finishing touches to my card.
I really hope you can find some crafty time this week to join in with my challenge.  Don't forget, you can use any type of marker on your creation and as long as you follow the 'Celebrations' theme, you'll be in with a chance of winning this great prize!
I look to forward to visiting your blogs and seeing your gorgeous creations.
Hugs, Karen x
