Spring over at Passion for Promarkers

Morning and hello! How are you doing? Hope you're having a good start of your week. Fairly good over here. Next cold is healing, just some cough left and a horrible tiredness. Only way is forward...

I did manage to make a card for this lovely challenge with the theme of "Spring" that we have over at PFP this week. So anything that has to do with spring on your creations would be nice to see. Tulips, spring flowers, Easter maybe etc. You probably have more ideas than I do.

I decided to go with spring colours and a tiny hit of Easter to that. I have used two old Bildmålarna images that I bought from them when they went out of business. I have a few more of them that I have not used yet. Mostly because I don't use my stamps that often anymore. It's fairly hard when you have trouble with your hands and back. But the new stamping tools where you can stamp at the same place again really, really helps. A lot! It was fun to do it again and I think I will drag out a few more of my stamps in the near future.


Do you know what is the best part of this creation? I have used some of my original paper paps from Letraset with the heavy card stock. And I don't know why the stopped making it. It's sooo much better than all the rest. I have a few sheets from one pad and one full one left then it will be over. I will miss them. But when I feel bad I bring them on and it makes feel like I am a great colourista. :)

Anyway, the images is called Rooster and Stone Wall. I did even do some masking for this card. I coloured with my Letraset markers / Winsor and Newton markers. Lots of love for colouring on the lovely paper and the sweet images. I went with pastel colours and it became kind of pretty.

I have been digging deep in my stash as well and found some lovely papers that has a kind of spring colours. It's called Pink Parafait and is from Forever Friends collection. It's a really sweet pad and I kind of have one and half pad left from that as well. LoL

Of couse did this card also need some decorations. This time did I digg out my butterfly punch from Martha Stewart. Punched a few in purle, a few pinks and a few yello ones. Became a nice edition to the lovely mini flowers from Crafts U love Mini flowers, pastel collection. I decorated them with some pearls in white and yellow. The final touch is my lace that I have used on most of my cards lately.

So with this I hope that I have given you some kind of inspiration for a spring creation. The only thing that you have to do is to colour with any kind of Letraset / Winsor & Newton markers and then you will have a chance to win our lovely prize.
