Four legged friends over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!
Time for a new challenge over at Passion for  markers. This week are we celebrating our friends with four legs and fur, or no fur!



We are sponsored by the lovely Polka doodles that offer one lucky winner 3 digis of winners choice. 
Thank you for that!

For my card have I used an image called Scruff the dog - Gardening. I am so glad that I had this one coloured and ready for a card as my fingers have messed up again. Now can I do my duty as a DT-member. :) 




I have coloured with copic markers and matched the image with designer papers from Simple Stories called Fur baby or Fur Babies. Having four cats myself was it nice to be able to use the designer papers with dog motives on them.

Hope you like what you see and that you will play along with us over at passion for markers.

Love n hugs
Marie

Anything goes over att Passion for Markers, we are celebrating!

Morning and hello!
We have a new challenge up for you all today. And this week are we celebrating! Here comes a little bit of info from our challenge blog.

Onto this week's challenge and we have a very special one for you this week as it's our 16th Anniversary. Can you believe it's been 16 years since Gina and myself started our little blog?  It only seems like yesterday when we nervously made our first post!  Time flies when you’re having fun.  As it's a special challenge we have a really easy theme for you of "anything goes".  As the title suggests you can make anything you like this week as long you colour with markers.  We are hoping to see lots of entries but please note that as we have extra prizes up for grabs this week we are only accepting a maximum of 3 entries per person for this one challenge only.  Remember the only rule is colour your image with your markers and have fun!

And as we are celebrating, we need gifts! Not for us, but for all of you. A few of you that plays along with us will be given little gifts from our sponsors. Here you go!

For my card then... I have used an image from what I believe is from Power Poppy with spring flowers. Let me just say, the other day when I made the card was it raining like it was autumn already. 


I have coloured with my promarkers and used designer papers from Echo Park. It's some kind  of spring paper pad. Anyway, it was a good match to my image. I have also used some lace ribbon, paper flowers from my stash, one that I made myself and some pearls and a charm to that and my spring creation was ready. Now will I find someone that I can send my card to.

All the best and enjoy your week!

Love n hugs

Make it bloom over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
Hi there! Hope you have had a good start of the week and that you are ready for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This week's theme is set by me and I have picked the theme of
Let it bloom !

We are sponsored by the lovely people over at Clearly Besotted. They offer one lucky winner a gift voucher worth £15. Thank you for that!

For my card this week have I used a House Mouse stamp that I have had in my stash for many, many years by now. The worst part? It have never been used before. I am pretty sure that I have had it in my stash for at least 8 years. Even worse, I have many stamps that haven't been used since I bought them. I could probably make a card once or twice every week with unused stamps. It shows that I went on with digi stamps instead. 


Anyway, I have used designer papers from Simple Stories paper pad called Simple Vintage Flower Shoppe. It have a lovely colour scheme and lovely designs. I over coloured my image with heavy layers of colours. It was a while since I coloured and it shows. Purple /lilacs are not something I use very often. 

I have coloured with Copics this time. And as I have "blooms" in my theme have I added some paper flowers from my stash and some pearls to that. And as shown on my photo have I added some glitter from my glitter pens. It shows up way better on the photo than IRL, but it's hard to photograph it. 

I hope to see you during the week. I look forward to visit your blogs and find some inspiration for my creations.

Love n hugs
Marie
