Mega Challenge over at Passion for Promarkers!

Hi there everyone!

Here comes a post about our on going challenge over at Passion for Markers. The challenge will go on till 7th of January. And design team one will be sharing their creations two weeks in to the challenge

 Good morning dear crafters, we hope you all had a fantastic week last week. The DT really enjoyed visiting your blogs and seeing your fabulous creations for our 'presents' challenge.  Don't forget to check back later to find out who the lucky winner of the 3 digi images courtesy of The Paper Shelter will be and also to see who Sue has chosen as her top 5 Passionista.

This week we are launching our very special 'Mega Christmas challenge' which runs for a whole month and ends on 7th January 2025!  I’m sure you’ll agree that both design teams have worked extremely hard once again this year and they deserve a little break to catch up on their last minute gifts and cards.  However to make up for the lack of challenges we have some fantastic prizes up for grabs!

Our theme for the Mega Christmas challenge is 'anything goes'.  We don't mind what you create for this challenge, as long as you colour with your markers!  You are welcome to make Christmas creations but as the challenge will still be running after the ‘BIG’ day you can of course make any type of creation.  As time is precious for our DT at this time of year we are limiting the number of entries you can make to just 3 for this month long challenge.  Please remember to be eligible for our prizes you must include a hand-coloured image using your markers such as Promarkers, Copics, Spectrum Noir, Karin, Zig Clean Color etc. 

So now for the exciting bit – the prizes!

Presents over at PFM

 Morning and Hello!

Well, it's afternoon and I am a bit late with posting this. I had no energy to write yesterday after my doctors appointment and today was it another one with one of my sons. I am really tired but now is it two weeks until I have my next appointment, and then is it time for the dentist. Lucky I have a good one!

Anyway, I am here and posting now while I am waiting for the biathlon to start. First game this week. I love my winter sports. I have company of three of my four cats which is really nice. My new boys are really settling in here now. Love that!

Our sponsor this week is the Paper Shelter. They offer one lucky winner 3 digis of winner's choice. Thank you for that!

And I will treasure my TPS images forever! RIP Veronica, you are missed.

For my card have I used a TPS image called Merry Christmas My Dear. It's a nice and lovely image that is fun to create with. I have coloured with my pro markers for this one. I have also removed Mrs Claus as I didn't had room for her on my card. At first had I planned to have her on the inside of my card, but I ran out of energy for that idea. 

I have decorated my card with golden snowflakes, some paper roses, and a ribbon with snowflakes on it. There is some glitter golden nuvo drops as well to finish off my card. The designer papers are from Simple Stories. 

I hope that you enjoy our new challenge and will play along with us. We look forward to visit you all. The challenge is open for all kind of creations with hand coloured images on them, and it doesn't need to be presents for Christmas, birthday and other celebrations is also totally ok, as long as there is at least of present on your creation. 

Love n hugs

Just for Fun 18-24

Morning and hello!

Dropping by with a card in fall colours. The image is from my huge stash of hÄnglar and wings images. This one is called Coola hÄnglar. This is the female image, as you couldn't see that. 

I have coloured with my promarkers and paired my image with designer papers from Maja Design. I don't remember the name of the paper pad. With a cake paper, ribbon and bow, some paper flowers as well as die cut leaves and a die cut border from Lawn Fawn. I had fun making this one and I love the detail with the corrugated cardstock behind the image. 

Hope you like what you see and can enjoy something else than Christmas cards for a few moments!

Love n hugs

Just for fun 19-24

Morning and hello!

I am back again with a card that I have made to keep me busy during a painful day. Luckly I could colour even if I was in pain. It's not often the case at this point. This is also one of my hÄnglar and Wings images. This is called Prins och Prinsessa. 

I went back to something that I used to do pretty often before, colour with only warm grey markers. This time did I use skin colours, I don't know why. I didn't do that before. But it looks fairly good together with the grey. I have used a paper pad from Carta Bella or Echo Park for this card. Some gemstones in black have been used to add a little texture and details to my card. I have also used a sentiment from hÄnglar and Wings. It means congratulations in Swedish.

I hope you like my little creation! Now is it back to Christmas creations once again. I need a few more cards in the larger size for the coming season. 

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Mini Monday 16-24

Morning and hello!

Here is another of my mini cards. This one also made with left overs I have in my stash that didn't get used when I had planned to. The trees are made with dies from my stash. 

 This time have I used an acrylic pen to make the snowfall.. It became a little too much, but give a different look. I have used some glitter pens on the images as well. It doesn't show up much here on the photo. The card is around 7,5 cm - 5,0 cm, so it's pretty small, but big enough to go into a letter to my pen pals.

Have a great day!

Love n hugs

Marie
