Ribbon and/or lace

 Hi crafters,

It's time for a new challenge at Passion for Markers and it has been set by our lovely Kitty who has given us the theme of ‘ribbon and/or lace'.  

We hope you’ll have fun and can’t wait to see what you create this week.  Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card; the only rule we have is to use your markers and have fun!

RAM Stamps are sponsoring this week's challenge and they are offering the lucky winner a £10 voucher to spend in their online store.  They have some gorgeous images and the Design Team have used some on their cards this week to inspire you.

I have used one of their images and this one is called 'giraffe and bird'.

I really enjoyed colouring this image with my promarkers and also found some co-ordinating papers for this Welsh 'New Baby' card.  I dicut some flowers and inked all edges with some distress inks.  I coloured the swirls with my markers to match the colours I'd used in the image and added some matching ribbon on the edge of the frame.

A button and bow were added to the corner and I found the perfect colour pearls in my stash for the flower centres! 

I'm really happy with this card and I'm going to make some baby girl cards too by changing the bird and embellishments to pink!

I hope you can join in with this fab challenge and 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

Fave digi or stamp

 Hi crafters,

It's my turn to host the challenge this week at Passion for Markers and I've chosen 'Fave digi or stamp' as the theme!

Don’t forget you can enter any type of creation it doesn’t have to be a card.  So pull out your favourite markers and get colouring!

We are kindly sponsored by All Dressed Up Stamps who are offering the lucky winner a choice of 2 digi images.

I've used one of their gorgeous images on my card this week and this one is called 'Garden Wheelbarrow'

I coloured the image with my promarkers and found some matching papers to add some layers to the card.  I embossed the white background with a brick embossing folder and added an LOTV sentiment.

Some pearls and enamel dots finished off the card!

I hope you can find some crafty time to join in with my challenge this week.  Don't forget you can use any of your markers and make sure you follow the theme to be in with a chance of winning this fab prize!

I look forward to seeing your gorgeous creations!

Hugs, Karen x
