Buttoms and/or Bows

Good morning crafters,

It's my turn to choose the theme for this week's challenge at Passion for Promarkers and I'd love to see your creations with 'Buttons and/or Bows'.  We are kindly sponsored by Crafty Sentiments Designs and they are offering the lucky winner a choice of 3 digi images from their online stores.  Their images are absolutely gorgeous and I've used one of them on my card this week.

I've used one of their gorgeous digis called 'Couples' for my Anniversary card.

I loved colouring this image with my promarkers - these little bears are so cute!  I used a layout from one of our workshops (which I really miss!!) and found some matching papers in my stash.  The flowers are all diecut and I punched out the leaves from the same card.  A stamped sentiment and some glitter here and there were the finishing touches as well as the little bow, of course!

I hope you can find some time to join in with this week's challenge.  Don't forget to use your Winsor and Newton products (formely Letraset) and follow the theme.

I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations!

Hugs, Karen x

Flower Power

Hi crafters,

Hope you are all keeping well and finding that crafting is still helping during these strange times.

I'm certainly crafting quite a bit at the moment as I'm not going anywhere!  So thank goodness I've got my crafting to keep me busy.

There's a brand new challenge at Passion for Promarkers and this week, our lovely Elaine has given us the fab theme of 'Flower Power'.  Nice and easy as I don't think I make many cards without flowers!!

We are kindly sponsored by Cowling & Wilcox who are offering the lucky winner a 3 pack of Neon Markers & bleedproof pad.

Cowling & Wilcox

This is a card I made for a colleague in work who's just had their first baby.  I've used one of my favourite New Baby stamps and this one is from LOTV.

The papers are also from an LOTV paper pad and I've coloured the image with my promarkers and a bit of chalk for the rosy cheeks!  I've added lots of glitter too and I diecut lots of flowers and leaves. I added some chalk to the centre of the flowers as well - looked a bit more delicate for a baby card.
I printed the baby's name and weight on the computer in Welsh and cut it out using a heart shaped die - just makes the card extra personal.
Well I hope you're able to join in with this week's challenge,  Don't forget to use your Letraset products and of course, follow the theme!
I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations.
Hugs, Karen x
