Monochrome Challenge

Hi crafters,
There's a brand new challenge at Passion for Promarkers starting today.  It's been chosen by our lovely Kitty and the theme for this week is 'Monochrome'.
We are kindly sponsored by Ppinkydolls and they are offering the lucky winner a choice of 3 digis from the online store.  All the images there are amazing and great fun to colour in.

We were lucky enough to have an image to play with and I chose this gorgeous digi called 'Abi's Love'.  I chose to use cream as my monochrome colour which meant keeping the colouring as simple as possible.  I actually enjoyed keeping it as one main colour and will definitely use this theme again!

The papers are all from my stash and I punched some flowers out of these papers as well.  The sentiment stamp came from a magazine freebie and I used a brown ink pad to keep everything in the same tone.  I embossed the cream layer and all the edges have been inked with 'Antique Linen' Distress Ink.  Some cream organza ribbon and a couple of small wooden hearts were the finishing touches to the card as well as a few pearls here and there!!

So why not join in with this nice and easy challenge this week.  Remember, you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn't have to be a card.  To be eligible for the prize draw, you must use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products (promarkers, flex markers etc) and of course, follow the theme.  Please also say which products you have used on your creation,

I look forward to visiting your blogs to see all your lovely creations!

Hugs, Karen xx

Just add Glitter!

Hi crafters,
It's my turn to host this week's challenge at Passion for Promarkers and I've chosen a nice and easy theme - 'Just add glitter'.
We are kindly sponsored by The Paper Shelter this week and they are offering the lucky winner a $10.00 voucher to spend in their online store.

Their images are all gorgeous and we were lucky enough to have an image to use on our cards for this challenge,

The image I've used is called 'Playing under the Sea' and I really enjoyed colouring this one.  I've used my promarkers as always and just added some glitter - of course!!

I found some shells to add to my card which I collected many years ago on my honeymoon (knew they would come in handy one day!!!)   I don't know if you can see it but I've also added some cream spider's web (I think that's what it's called) just to give some texture to the card.  Some WOC flowers and a sentiment finished off the card.
Here's a side image of my card so that you can see the glitter!

I really hope you can join in with this challenge and I look forward to visiting your blogs to see all your gorgeous creations.  Remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn't have to be a card and don't forget - to be eligible for the prize draw, you must use your Winsor & Newton products and follow the theme,
Thanks for dropping by,
hugs, Karen xx
