Make it bloom over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
Time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers and this week's theme is set to

Make it Bloom


Our sponsor is the lovely All dressed up which offers one lucky winner two digital images of winners' choice. Thank you for that! 

For my card have I used an image called Jam Jars and it's a lovely image to colour and play for. It is also easy to split the three jars and only use one part of the image. I decided to use all three of them for this card. I had fun colouring the flowers. I have used my promarkers for this image. 


I have used designer papers from a bag filled with designer papers that is left from a couple of paper pads that have spring as a theme. The papers left has a lot of pattern on them which make them hard to use for me. At least I got this card together with the leftovers. This will be the last spring I use them, what is left when spring is over will be thrown away. Can't save it all, but God it's hard to throw them out. Do you find it hard to throw out stuff that you know it will be hard to use and you still can't throw them out?

I have used some gemstones and pearls to decorate the card. Some in the flower centers and in the corners of the card. A ribbon and a bow is also added together with a charm and some paper flowers. 

It have been fun to make the card and I hope that you will join us over at Passion for Markers and play along with us. Looking forward to see your creations. 

Love n hugs

Mini Monday again

Morning and hello!
Another little card with some Lawn Fawn stamps. I love them to bits! I have mixed two Lawn Fawn sets and some no name tree dies. I love the designer paper that I have used for the sky and it is from Lawn Fawn as well. 


Some nuvo drops have been used as snow and I had fun making this little creation. I have a bit of collection now. That is good as I have tons of pen pals that I want to wish a lovely Christmas and a happy New Year!

Take some time and be creative!

Christmas Cheers for the first time in March

Morning!
 I know that spring is almost here again and I am making christmas cards and I love it! I have dug out an old stamp from Sugarnellie and I love this sweet santa with an old feeling to him. It's really sweet don't you think?


I have dug out some of my Maja design papers to give him a great company of lovely designer papers. I have also used some of my old magnolia dies like the trees that I have added snow and glitter too. Some paper roses and some stars of different kind goes as a snow feeling to the card. The sentiment is from Nellie Snellen I think. Now is it time to see if spring is here soon. 

Have a good week and be creative!

A new little mini creation 8-26

Morning and hello!
A new week and a new mini creation. I'm happy to be able to play with some of my cute Lawn Fawn stamps. I totally adore the mice stamps they have. I have a whole village of them by now. I really should be using them a lot more than I do. I have plenty of them just laying around and have never been used. 


This set of stamps was new for 2025 and they make me smile when I see them. Too bad that I don't have much fantasy to build sceneries. I should be trying to do more of that. Still this is a really small card and some kind of scenery is made on this one, I think...

Have a great week!

Love n hugs

Lots of layers over at Passion for markers

Morning and hello!
Sorry for my late posting of this card. My head have had it's own painful life for a while. 

Anyway, this is my card for our current challenge over at Passion for Markers. Our theme is set to 

Lots of layers

and that is what we want to see on your creations. I love having tons of layers on my creations. But I always trim away some of the card stock that isn't shown. Keeps the postage lower. 


Our sponsor this week is Dies to die for and they will award our lucky winner a gift voucher to spend in their store. Thank you for that!


 The image I have used is from Power Poppy if I remember correctly. It's an image that I dig out every now and then and their fantastic flower images is to die for. I found a Simple Stories paper pad with lots of lilacs in it that goes well with my lavender pot. It's nice when things comes together just like that. 

Do pop on over to Passion for Markers and see what my amazing teamies have been up to. Lots of great inspiration to find on the challenge blog. 

Take care and take some time to do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
Marie
