Christmas over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!
Hope you had a good start of the week and are ready for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This week's theme is set by me, and I have chosen the theme of "Christmas". It will soon be here and in two weeks will "my" window cleaner come to prep my windows for the winter and Christmas. Time flies doesn't it?


Our lovely sponsor this week is Polkadoodles that offer one lucky winner 3 digis of winner's choice. Thank you for that!

For my card have I used the lovely image called Santa Snowman Gift. It's so cute and fun to colour. Highly recommend their images. They are totally adorable! I have coloured with a mix of copic markers and spectrum noir markers. It is lots of fun to colour these modern traditional mixed look images. There is plenty in the Polkadoodles store. 


I have used a paper pad from Maja Design paper pad called Woodland Christmas from Maja Designs. It is from last year's Christmas release. It's a lovely paper pad with lovely patterns. I have used some gemstone to decorate the image as well as the snowflakes and to that have I added some paper flowers and a snowflake charm. The border die is from Lawn Fawn. I just love their border dies. They are amazing and perfect in size.

Now is it time for you to create something for our Christmas challenge. I look forward to see what you create. See you over at your blog!

Love n hugs

Happy Halloween!

 Morning and hello!
It's the spooky day of 31st of October. I love to create some spooky cards every year even if I don't celebrate it at all. Actually, all the way around. I don't like it at all, and kids coming knocking on my door: do not bother. There is a code that says if you have pumpkins outside your door is it ok to knock and ask for candy, if there isn't any, don't knock. It would be nice if that would be respected and thought to the kids. And no, my own have never been allowed to trick and treat. For me is it the remembering of lost friends and family that is important. 

Still, it's mega fun to make the cards. Many images are super cute! My images are from hÄnglar and Wings. It's called Flygfän Cute ain't they?


I had fun making the card and it's quite simple. Just a few designer papers, some extra bat stamps and some gemstones to that. Nice and easy. I think the designer papers are from Echo Park or maybe Carta Bella, but probably from Echo Park. 

Hope you have a good weekend and celebration if you are into that!

Morning and helllo!
Hi I am back again with a tiny card. And use of some lovely designer papers. It's a wonderful shimmer and silver print. 


I have once again been in my stash bin with lovely left overs that I have coloured with my promarkers. The images are made with stamps from Lawn Fawn. It's fun to sit and make stuff without thinking. It's great to have some images laying around ready to be used. Try it!

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Flower Friday 8-24

Morning and hello!
Hi there and happy weekend to you all! Hope you'll have some time for crafting during the weekend. Hopefully will the weather be nice and maybe I can go out for a tiny little walk that I don't get any pain from. 


This is an easy made card where I have used a topper from LOTV. I don't remember what the pack is called but this image is or was available as a stamp and digi image. The photo is really bad for this one, but hey hoo, let's go! Some pearls, paper flowers and nuvo drops is used to add details to this card. The designer papers are from Me to you if I don't remember totally wrong.

Have a good weekend and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Make it cute over at PFM

 Morning and hello!
Time flies and it is time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This time do we have the theme of "Make it Cute". So dig out all your sweet stamps and digis and make a card or two to play along with us over at PFM.



As always have Denise manage to get us a sponsor for our challenge. This week are we showing off images from RAM Stamps. Thank you for sponsoring us!
One lucky winner will get a gift voucher worth £10 to use in the store.

For my card then, have I used the lovely image called Fairy Garden pot. I have coloured with my promarkers but I probably should have used my copics for this one as the lines are so fine in the drawing. Anyway, at least I could take part in this challenge.

I have used a paper pad from Carta Bella to match up the colours of the image. To be honest is my mind set to Christmas cards at this time and I well, struggle a bit with other cards at this point. I don't know what to do with other images. Finding a
design lay out... You know the feeling?


This is what this weeks card looks like. I used some gemstones and white ribbon as well as one in the shape of daisies. That is all to it for this creation. Oh, I have used a glitter pen on some small details like the flowers and the magic flower pin in the little fairies hand.

Hope you want to playing along with us and we in the design team look forward to see what you create for this weeks challenge!

Take care and have a really good crafty week!

Love n hugs
Marie
