Fave digi or Stamp

Hi crafters,
I'm hosting the challenge this week at Passion for Promarkers and I'd love to see your gorgeous creations using your favourire digi or stamp.  A nice and easy theme, especially as our fave images vary from week to week!!
We are kindly sponsored by Cowling & Wilcox and they are offering the lucky winner a pack of 6 Promarkers (rich tones).

This is a card I've made for my sister's birthday this week.  I just love this stamp from Stamping Bella called 'Huggy Friends' and the sentiment that comes with it is just perfect too! 

I used my promarkers to colour the image and matched the hair to me and my sister!!  That's the joy of colouring your own stamps and digis!  (Wish I looked like that in a frock though!)

I found some co-ordinating flowers and some glitter and pearls were the finishing touches.

Remember, you can enter any type of creation into this challenge but don't forget to use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products to be in with a chance of winning this fab prize.

I look forward to visiting your blogs and seeing your wonderful entries!

Hugs, Karen xx

Embossing

Hi crafters,
There's a great new challenge at Passion for Promarkers today and our lovely Jacky has set the theme this week.  She would love to see your cards with embossing (heat or dry) and we are kindly sponsored by Colour of Love (formerly Lacy Sunshine).  They are offering the lucky winner a choice of 3 digi images from their online store.

I've used one of their gorgeous images on my card this week and this one is called 'Rory's Birthday'.

I decided to colour the image with my Promarkers using only 3 colours and left the background white ,so that the image would really stand out on my card.  I embossed two of the background layers and added some co-ordinating ribbon to break the white a little bit!  A button on the bow and some enamel dots were the finishing touches- oh, and some glitter here and there of course!!
Why not enter one of your creations this week and be in with a chance of winning this fab prize.  Just remember to use your Winsor and Newton products (formerly Letraset) and be sure to have some embossing on your designs - whether it's dry or heat embossing you're using.
I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations,
Hugs,

For a child/add stitching real or faux

Hi crafters,
Well this month has certainly flown by and even the clocks go forward at the weekend!  Let's hope we get some lovely sunny Spring days next month.
It's Tuesday again which means a brand new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers.  This week's theme has been chosen by our lovely Elaine and she would love to see your cards for a child, with added stitching - real or faux.  We are very kindly sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps and they are offering the lucky winner a $6.00 voucher to spend in their online store.

I used an old DSB image called 'Hetty and Cupcake' on my card this week which I coloured with my promarkers.  

I used some papers from 'The Works' and used a stitched die to frame the image,  I made some bunting out of the papers and also used the same papers to die cut the flower.  Some buttons and gems were added and the sentiment is from one of Lisa's CD's.  I also added a bit of glitter on the cupcake icing!!

You can enter any creation for this challenge, just remember to use your Winsor and Newton products to be eligible for the prize - as well as following the theme of course!

I look forward to visiting your blogs to see your gorgeous creations this week,

We are kindly sponsored by Leann's World 101 and they are offering the lucky winner the choice of 2 digi images from their online store.  Have a look at the websites - the images on there are amazing!

I made a card for my niece who's left to go and study at Leicester University.  I coloured the image with my promarkers and added the uni logo onto my card - just to personalise it a bit more for her!!

I used a stitched die for the image, added my spotty paper and a couple of banners were the finishing touches!  Not like me to not add ribbon, flowers etc etc!!

Hi crafters,

They kindly sent us one of their gorgeous images for this week's challenge and I've used 'Feeling Spoilt' for my card this week.

I coloured the image with my promarkers and added a touch of glitter here and there!  I found some flowers to match my colour scheme and die cut the numbers which I also glittered!!

I added various pearls and a ribbon to the glass die cut - this was a magazine freebie and I've used this die so much!

I used a layout from a recent workshop and punched out some flowers in the same backing papers.  I've added a mixture of pearls and coloured gems as well as a cute little polka dot button!  

My card has L for a lace diecut, L for lunch and L for leaves!

I've made a Welsh Birthday card for my brother this week and the image has been coloured with my promarkers.

I added some glossy accents to make the bottle shine and the papers are from 'The Works'.  I added some twine and a wooden star as a finishing touch!  Because I had so many stars on the card, the film had to be 'A Star is Born'!!  The best film I've seen for a long time - absolutely fantastic!
