Pastel colors over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
Time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers once again. This weeks challenge theme is
PASTEL COLORS
A fun nice challenge don't you think? Perfect for this time of the year!

We are sponsored by the lovely people over at LOTV that offer one lucky winner 4 digis of winners choice. Thank you for that!

For my card have I used one of LOTV's sweet images. It's called Bunny Girl. It's super sweet! Had fun coloured with my copics this time. I had a bit of trouble finding pastel designer papers for a while but in the end did I find a paper pad from Echo Park called Happy Birthday or something like that. 


I just added a few pearls to the card. The only decoration for this card. I am lacking a bit of energy at this point, so now will I have a bit of rest before I come and visit you and see the wonderful creation you have made with pastel colors!

Love n hugs

It is time for a new card just for the fun of it!

 Morning and hello!
Here I am again! I have made a card for one of my sweet nephews that had his birthday a while back. I decided to go back to one of my favourite images from The Paper Shelter. I don't remember what it is called as I have had it printed for a long time and I don't have the energy to look for the image at this point.

I have used my promarkers to colour this charming image and dug deep in my stash of paper pads and found a summer paper pad from Echo Park if I remember correctly. It's filled with happy colours and summer vibes.


And what is better than ice cream on your birthday? I for sure can't think of anything better than that. I had a little fun playing with a white pen in the image's hair. It is fun to do something different every now and then. Besides that does pens and markers make me relax when using them either for colouring or writing. I will always prefer to write by hand and it makes me happy and most of all, it creates memories that stays when writing everything down by hand instead of using the computer.

Now is it time for me to relax and maybe write a letter or two even if it will take forever to finish it all off.

Have a great week and do something that makes you happy!

1, 2, 3, go! Over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
It is time for a new challenge over at PFM and this week is our theme set to "3, 2, 1, go!" which means that we want to see 3 of something, 2 of another thing and then finally one of something else. It's a fun challenge don't you think?


Our sponsor this week is 
Dies to die for
and they offer one lucky winner a gift voucher to use in their store. It's worth £15. Thank you for that!

For my card have I yet again used an image from hÄnglar and Wings. The image is from the sweet set called Vårvinter. It's a cute set of images.  I have coloured with my promarkers this time and I have paired the image with a paper pad from Simple Stories. It is one of their winter / Christmas paper pad. I love this paper pad as I do with most of the paper collections from Simple Stories. I am still in winter mood even thou the spring flowers are starting to show


My 3, 2, 1, go! is three eyelets/tags, two clusters with stars and one piece of lace and / or image. It's your pick! I enjoyed this challenge and I hope you do to. It was fun to dig out my eyelets again and some string to that. 

Now is it time for me to rest for a little while and then I hope to be able to colour a few images. It would be nice.

Have a good week and do join us over at Passion for Markers! We look forward to visit you!

Mini Monday, for the love of small cards

 Morning and hello! 
Happy new Monday to you! I am starting the week with one of the most loved things in my life, snowmen! Yep, I know we're at the end of March and I keep moving on with my winter cards. It is so much fun to make winter and Christmas cards. My favourite things in paper crafting. This image is as most of the time when I make things with my stamps, an image from hÄnglar and Wings. The size of the card is an A7.


I believe this sweet heat was a freebee with one of the first advent calendars hÄnglar and Wings did. I have used this sweetie fairly often for my creations to my pen pals. I can be variated in colours and look totally different that way, I have also used some left overs from scrap papers drawer. It is always wonderful to use something up instead of throwing it away.

Have a great week!

Love n hugs

Flower Friday for the first time this year!

Morning and hello all crafting friends!
Hope you had a good week and will have an even better weekend coming your way! Today do I have a card with flowers to show you. First time this year and I am so happy to be able to show it to you. 


I believe the image is from Power Poppy, but I am not totally sure. What I am sure of is that the image is stunning and I love it. I had a bit of a trouble finding a good mix of pink markers. If you have any tip any at all of a good looking pink combo, feel free to share it with me. 

The designer papers are from Maja Design and the paper pad called Mum's garden. It's an amazing set of designer papers in pink, green and some lilac to that as well. I have enjoyed making this card. The Numbers are from a set of dies from my stash. Nice and elegant, don't you think? Paper flowers is from my stash and the boarder die is a very old one from Martha Stewart that I still love using from time to time.

Hope I have given you some inspiration to spend a little time crafting today!

Love n hugs
Marie
