For a child over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!
I am here again, after two weeks absence. I struggle a bit with my fingers and hands and it makes me slow and I do very little during the days. No energy for nothing. Except for listening to audio books and combing and brushing my feline friends. 

Ok card creation once again. It is a new challenge over at Passion for Markers today. We have the theme of "For a child" and we have a sponsor for this challenge do we have a sponsor, just as always. 


Our sponsor is All Dressed UP and they offer one lucky winner two digis of winner's choice. Thank you for that!

For my card have I used a sponsor image called Puddle ducks. You find it here. I have coloured with a mix of copics and promarkers. I struggled a bit but I did managed to make a card at least. Some days you have to be happy to manage to get some kind of result. 


The image is paired up with designer papers from Echo Park. They are a mix from different spring papers from my stash. Maybe I can get one or two more cards out of the leftovers. I picked these designer papers because I wanted a lot of colours that is happy and cheerful. 

I took out some buttons and some pears shaped as stars. A die cut from my stash wish "Congratulations" in Swedish. I have layered three pieces so there is a bit of contrast and texture to the card. My teamies over at Passion for Markers have done some smashing creations, pop on over to have a good look and inspiration from them, and then come and join us.

Take care and do something that make you happy!

Love n hugs

Christmas over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
Hi there! Time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This week's theme? "Christmas"
You know it is soon time for the big celebration during the winter. Only a few months left before it is time. Have you started with your winter / Christmas cards yet? I have even before this one, but I have many more to make. It's a good to get going to take part in different christmas challenges. 


Our sponsor this week is 
Dies to Die for
They offer one lucky winner a gift voucher worth £15.
Thank you for that!

For my card this week have I used an image from hÄnglar and Wings. The image is from one of the lovely advent calendars. You can still order the new one for the coming Christmas. The pre order us open to 15th of September, so a few days left. 


I have paired my cute little guy together with Maja Design papers. Don't remember what pad it is but it was a good fit to the image. I have also used a few of my precious metal snowflakes. I just love them and wish I had 1000 more of them. I have also used a golden coloured deer charm and put it in the woods made with black and white trees made with a die from Magnolia, Sweden. I love those three dies and I never get bored of them. Some cheese cloth, ribbon and nuvo drops in a lovely red shads is also used to make the card. The sentiment is also from hÄnglar and Wings. 

Hope you come and join us over at Passion for Markers for this week's challenge. We look forward to come and visit you!

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
