Hi crafters, 

The new challenge over at Passion for Markers has been set by our lovely Elaine and she has given you the theme of ‘add some doodling’ to inspire you this week.  Elaine would like you to create something that includes some doodling.  Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card but whatever you make please remember you must include a hand coloured image to be eligible for our prize draw.  So grab your markers and have some fun!

Our generous sponsor this week is Leann's World 101 and they are offering one lucky winner 2 digi images of their choice from their online store.  All the DT have used images from Leann's World 101 on their creations this week.  


I've used this one called 'Cindy's umbrella'.  I've coloured her with my promarkers and did some paper piecing for the umbrella.  I added lots of different papers from my stash and doodled on the edges of them all!   I added some gems to look like rain drops and plenty of clouds to go with the theme!  I printed a sentiment on the computer and finished off with lots of glitter here and there!


I hope you can find some crafty time to join in with this week's theme.  You can use any of your markers but don't forget to follow the theme to be in with a chance of winning this fab prize!
Hugs, 
Karen x

Green/Blue/Purple Colour Challenge

 Hi crafters,

Our lovely Wendy has chosen this week's theme for our brand new challenge over at Passion for Markers.  Wendy would love to see your creations using the colours  'Green/Blue/Purple' - such a great combination!

We are kindly sponsored by Dies to Die For and they are offering the lucky winner a £15.00 voucher to spend in their online store - such a fab prize!


I made this for a colleague in work and was really pleased with how it turned out! I've never used these colours together but they look great and I'll definitely be using this colour combo again!


I stamped the cute image and coloured her with my promarkers.  I added lots of gitter to her wings, fussy cut her out and placed her on my card with foam pads  I created a watercolour background with my distress inks and did some splattering to add a bit of texture.  A die cut banner and the sentiment finished off the card with some enamel drops from my stash.

I hope you can find some time to join in with this week's challenge.  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!

I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations.

Hugs, Karen x
