For a boy

 Hi crafters,

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

We are kindly sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps who are offering the lucky winner a £6.00 voucher to spend in their online store.


I made this new baby card for a friend using one of my favourite LOTV images.  

I've used a layout from a workshop which includes lots of layers and die cuts!  I stencilled the background on the left and added a diecut frame, stars and teddy bear!  I made an envelope and personalised the card inside with baby's name, date of birth and weight.  I added some co-ordinating papers in blue and green and added some enamel dots as the finishing touch!
I hope you are able to join in with this week's challenge.  Don't forget, you can use any of your markers but make sure you follow the theme to be in with a chance of winning this great fab prize!
I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations.
hugs, Karen x

Use a die

 Hi crafters

Our brand new challenge this week at Passion for Markers has been chosen by our lovely Nat and she would love to see your creations using a die. A nice and easy challenge as I don't think I make many cards now without adding a die or two!


We are kindly sponsored by Rachelle Anne Miller who is offering the lucky winner a £10.00 voucher to be spent in their online store.


I've used one their images on my card this week and this one is called ''Happy Birthday Creator - Characters' Digital Stamp '

This was great fun to colour with my promarkers and I fussy cut her out and added lots of glitter.  I added a pink background with my distress inks and added some white splatter to add texture.  I added some doodling around the edges as well as a die cut frame.  Some enamel dots and a couple of die cut flowers finished off the card!
I hope you can join in with this nice and easy challenge!  You can use any of your markers but don't forget to follow the theme to be in with a chance of winning this fab prize.
I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations.
Hugs, Karen x
