Flower Power

Hi crafters,

It's time for a brand new challenge at Passion for Markers and I've chosen this week's theme of 'Flower Power'.  I love adding flowers to my card, whether they're die cut, on backing papers or punched flowers - I hope you'll be able to play along too!  We are kindly sponsored by Dr Digi's House of Stamps and they are offering the lucky winner a choice of 2 digi images from their online store.

I've used one of their gorgeous images on my card this week and this one is called 'Cuddly Critters - Squirrel' 

I've coloured the image with my markers and used my prismacolour pencils to get the fur effect on the tail!  I inked and die cut the flowers to match the backing papers as well as some punched leaves.

I added a pearl to the centre of the flowers and the sentiment was a freebie from a craft magazine. I cut round the sentiment and added it to the card on foam pads - a technique that our lovely Lisa taught us in our workshops!

Well I really hope you'll be able to join in with this week's challenge.  Don't forget, you can use any of your markers - just remember to follow the theme to be eligible to win this fab prize!

I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations and I'll see you soon.

Hugs, Karen x
