Four legged friends over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
Time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers and this week's theme is set to

Animal friends


Our sponsor this week is the Paper Shelter  which is offering one happy winner 3 digis of winners choice. Thank you for that!

For my card today have I used an image from the Paper Shelter called Cosy winter wishes. You find it in the Paper shelter store.

My image have I coloured with a mix of different markers. I kept my colours kind of autumn-ish. I was in mood for that today. The designer papers are from Echo Park. I don't remember the name of the pad. I love the autumn and the warm colours that comes with it. 


I kept things simple for this card and added a bow, ribbon and some pearls to decorate the card. NIce and simple. Tried some off white card stock for the first time. I have their white card stock as well but it is a bit too white for my taste now days. I am not sure about the off white either and the card stock was a bit heavier than the white one. oh, well time will tell maybe I can turns using them. 

Any how, time for you to create something and maybe play along with us over at Passion for Markers. I look forward to see what you come up with for this challenge.

A little just for fun creation

Morning and hello!
Finally have I been able to make card out of pure joy of creating things. I have had this image coloured and ready for a card for a while now. I had picked out my designer papers a long time ago. I have just not had the energy to put a card together. All of the sudden everything changes and it comes together just like that. Lovely moments!
 

I am back to using my dear stamps from hÄnglar and wings. It's called Trädgårdspåtare and the set is lovely. Works both for spring and autumn. It was nice to colour this one and be able to fit for what you feel like spring or a lovely autumn time. You never know what pops into your mind. 

This one is coloured with my promarkers and the sweet image is also paired up with some designer papers from Maja Design: Strawberry thief. A totally adorable paper pad from Maja design. It was got to see the paper pad come to use as well. After all I didn't bought them so that I can sit and pet the papers, they are there for me to use. I finished my creation with some ribbon and a few pearls. I also added some butterflies that is actually nail art, I use them for card art.

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

Anything but square over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
Hi there, I am back for a little while after a bit of a break. My life in pain keeps me busy again. At least I managed to make a card for our new challenge over at Passion for markers. This weeks theme is set to

ANYTHING BUT SQUARE

A good change and challenge for me that always make square cards. Now days do I wish I had a larger big shot or an electrical die cut machine connected to the laptop. I can't make my circles as big as I want to. One day, and until then do I keep doing my cards a bit smaller. 


Our sponsor this week is the lovely Dr Digis house of stamps that sponsor us. One lucky winner will get two images of winners choice.
Thank you for sponsoring us!

For my card have I used the image called Berthas bloomin' box. A fun and charming image that makes me smile. I have coloured with a mix of different brands of markers. Some months ago did I buy a bunch of paper pads on sale and today did I use the first of the pads. My cats have been sleeping on the box where I had my pads, today could I finally get my hand on it again as the cats was out in the sunshine. 


The paper pad I have used is called Firefly and the brand is Echo park. The designer papers are smashing! Love the colours! I have use a lady bug, some lace, and flowers that is made for nails to decorate my card. It was fun to use stuff that I have not used before. The flowers and insects get a little smaller than I am used to but, they are perfect in size to match my images. Lucky me, because my nails ain't made for decorations. It would look horrible!

Anyway, time for you to take some time and play with papers, stamps and markers and what more you love working with. Can't wait to see what you will come up with!

Have a good crafty week!

Love n hugs
