Make it digital over at Passion for Promarkers

Morning and hello! Happy New Year to you all. Hope you all had a great start for the New Year. I am struggling a bit with feeling sick as crazy and some sight loss from time to time. But at least I know why. I also know that I need to get the eating matching up with my meds a lot better and that might help me feel better. We'll see how that will work out. Then we have to try getting a bit more exercise together with the meds so that it will help get my body going and not react to the meds as much with the hard stuff. Oh well, enough about this boring subject but it has been a hard period with one of my cats sick on top of it all. But he keeps going without his teeth and he is back to his social behaviour again. Yeah! But we also know that it can turn in a second. But here and now is our leading words for now. 

Sponsoring this challenge for our PFP challenge is Cowling & Wilcox - 6 pack of PM's (rich tones). That is one lovely prize for a happy player in our challenge!

This post should really be about our first challenge of the year for Passion for Promarkers. It happens to be my challenge and I decided to start the year easy if you are like me, a bit rosty at the moment. I have gone for the theme of " Make it digital" and I am mainly looking for you to use a digital image that you colour with your letraset markers / Winsor & Newton markers. It should be nice and easy for each and everyone. Just make sure that you use these brands to do your colouring, it hasn't to be all but most.
I made this card quite some time ago for a working mate at work as she had a friend turning 30. I kind of missed out a bit of the colours as my eyes has been really acting up. Making it a bit harder to see the colours and it's all a bit blurry from time to time. At least not all the time. One thing I know for sure is that I need to practise my grown up cards for this year. Need more images for that as well, so I guess I need to learn more about flower colouring and daring to use colours that I normally leave out from my card making. I am sorry but I don't have a clue who make this image. It has been laying around on my desk printed for ages. It might be Make it Crafty or Power Poppy, may be...

I did of course colour with my Letraset / W & N markers and then added some shading with my pencils. It might look a bit heavy on this photo but it wasn't as harsh IRL. I asked my boys, both older and younger. And C was happy about the card. I used quite a lot of die cuts and flowers for this card. After all you only turn 30 once per life time, well that is if you are not me who turns 30 each year. LoL. Lace, charms and some paint and glitter adds the details for the card.

Well you all, I wish you a great crafty 2018 and I will see you around. Tomorrow already to be exact. Then it's time for a new challenge over at TMCC. I will have three challenges the same week for a while now, so it might be a bit quite every second week but I hope I will have something for each week at least. But you never know...

Take care and do something that makes you happy

Love n hugs
Marie
