Birthday Cards

Hi crafters,

This week's challenge at Passion for Markers has been set by our lovely Linda and she's given us the nice and easy theme of 'Birthday Cards'.

We are very kindly sponsored by Rachelle Anne Miller and she is offering the lucky winner a choice of 2 digis from the online store.

She has some awesome images and you'll have a great time choosing the winning prize!

The Design Team were lucky enough to use one of her images on our cards this week and I've used this one called 'Birthday Owls'.

I really enjoyed colouring this one with my promarkers!  I added some white gel pen for highlights on the balloons as well as some glitter here and there!  I added a doodle around the image to match the one in the image and some enamel dots were the finishing touches to my card.  I found some co-ordinating papers too and then stopped before I added anything else!  I wanted the image to be the main focus of the card as these owls are too cute!

I hope you are able to join in with this fun challenge this week!  Remember, you can use any of your markers but don't forget to follow the theme to be in with a chance of winning this great prize!

Hugs, Karen x

Animals

 Hi crafters,

It's time for a brand new challenge over at Passion for Markers and this week, our lovely Kitty has given us the nice and easy theme of 'Animals'.

We are kindly sponsored by Sheepski Designs and they are offering the lucky winner a choice of 3 digis from their online store.  The Design Team have all used one of their images on their cards this week for some inspiration - check out their blogs for all the details.

I've used one of their images on my card and this one is called 'My Pad'

This was such fun to colour in with my promarkers and I also added some white pen to create some highlights! I used a layout from a past workshop and chose some black and white papers to contrast against the green.  I coloured the banners with the same green as the frog so they would co-ordinate perfectly and added a computer generated sentiment.  This image is perfect for those tricky male cards I think and I'll definitely be using this chilled out frog a lot!

I hope you'll be able to join in with this week's challenge.  Don't forget, you can use any of your markers but remember to follow the theme to be in with a chance of winning this great prize!

Hugs, Karen x
