Passion for Promarkers Challenge 334

Hi Crafters,
Here's my card for the new challenge at Passion for Promarkers and Sue has chosen this week's theme which is 'Dies and/or punches'.  Our generous sponsor this week is 'Dies to Die for' and the prize on offer is a £15.00 voucher to spend in the online store.
.

I've made a Welsh baby boy card which had to go in the post so needed to be quite flat - still couldn't help adding pearls and buttons though!!
I've used my favourite  New Baby stamp by 'Magnolia' which I've coloured using my promarkers and I've added a touch of glitter here and there (of course)!!
I've used various dies on this card and also punched my own flowers out of the same background papers.  I've also used an embossing folder behind the image which I think looks cute on baby cards!

I hope they liked it - it might be a nice keepsake for them with it being personalised and hopefully it survived being put in the post!!
So why not get your dies and punches out and join in with this week's challenge and don't forget to say what Letraset product you've used on your creation.
Good luck and I'll be back soon!
Hugs, Karen xx

Hi crafters,
Hope you are all OK!
I've got some exciting news this week - I've been chosen as a new DT member for Passion for Promarkers!  I couldn't believe it when I got the news - a great start to 2016!!
Here's my first card as a DT member for the Passion for Promarkers Challenge.  Nat has chosen the theme this week which is 'Papertastic'  (which basically means use at least 3 different papers) and we are sponsored this week by 

 '

They are offering one lucky winner a $6.00 voucher to spend in their online store.

I've used a really cute digi from 'Little Miss Muffet Stamps called 'Bunny Sitting' 

which you can  find here.

It was such a lovely image to colour in and I've also added glossy accents to the eyes and nose which makes such a difference!  The papers are from Maja Designs, I've added plenty of WOC flowers and added glitter to the punched leaves.  Some hearts here and there and some matching buttons finish it off!
Here is a close up of the cute bunny!

An 18th Birthday celebration!

Hi crafters,
Sorry it's been so long since my last post,  don't know where the time has gone!
Anyway,  I'm back with a card I made for an 18th Birthday.  I coloured in this Saturated canary image with my promarkers and it took me ages to get the hair right lol!

I cut the card with a Go Kreate die,  and added some WOC flowers and a few more die cuts! I added glossy accent to the wine glass and tied a corkscrew charm in the corner!
I'd like to enter my card in the Passion for Promarkers
Challenge 326 - 'Mega Christmas challenge'Theme - let's celebrate!
Thanks for looking and I'll see you again soon,
Hugs, Karen xx

Oldies Anniversary!

Hi crafters,
I've made this card for my Mother and Father-in-law's Wedding Anniversary this week.   I used one of Lisa's early card kits called 'The Oldies ' and decoupaged the image and added a bit of glitter here and there, which you can just about see I hope!
I added some lace and ribbon,  punched some flowers which matched her headscarf and added pearls to the centres.
Luckily, they absolutely loved it!

I've used this image quite a bit and it's a real favourite!  I'd like to enter my card in the Creative Inspirations challenge which is 'Sparkle '.
Thanks for looking and I'll be back again soon.
Hugs, Karen xx

Birthday notebooks!

Hi crafters,
I've been meaning to make these gifts for ages and actually got round to it this week.
These are for my niece's who have their Birthdays on the same day (2 years apart) which is always a bit tricky! So I decided to decorate a notebook each for them.

I've used Saturated Canary images for them both and coloured them with my promarkers.  I struggled a bit with the hair,  need to practice a bit more I think lol. I added lace,  buttons,  flowers and pearls and a bit of glitter to the letters.

I hope they like them and at least they can use them instead of being kept in a drawer as a card would be!

I'd like to enter my creations in this week's Passion for Promarkers challenge which is ' Lots of layers'.
Thanks for looking,
Hugs, Karen xx 

Try another piano!

Hi crafters,
I've finally got another card to show you! Haven't done much crafting lately,  I think it's because I've found it hard to concentrate as my first born is leaving the nest to go to Uni tomorrow. I'll probably be crafting a lot after he goes though to keep my mind occupied so that I'm not worrying about him all the time lol!
Anyway,  I made this card for a music teacher who was retiring and I was pleased with how it turned out.

I used a Spellbinders border die for the piano shape, someWOC flowers and some wooden music notes finished off the card.

Thanks for looking and hopefully I'll have some more cards to show you soon, especially as I'll have a desk to use now that No. 1 son is away, hee hee.

Hugs, Karen xx 

Phone cards

Hi crafters,
Long time no see! I've been a terrible blogger lately and I don't know why!
Anyway,  I've got a couple of cards to show you that I've made using Lisa's new CD.
I needed a couple of young  male birthday cards and these images were perfect!
I used the blank toppers which you can add your own text to so it's very useful for Welsh cards!

.

This one needed to be posted so I didn't add anything apart from some Card Candy and some twine! 

I added some acetate to the phone which made it look like a proper screen! 

I was really pleased with both cards as they were perfect for my nephews.  Adding your own text to the toppers is brilliant and can be done with all the images on the CD. 

Thanks for looking and I'll try and be back again soon, 

Hugs,

Karen xx
