Monochrome over at PFM

 Morning and hello!
Time again for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This week do we have a real challenge for you. Our theme is set "Monochrome". That is one colour + white and black in small dozes if the black isn't the main colour of course. We have a great prize up for grabs this week, so it is well worth giving the theme a try!


Our sponsor this week is Dies to Die for and they offer one lucky winner a gift voucher worth £15! It's an amazing prize for one lucky winner!
Thank you!


As I, once again have some trouble with my hands and fingers which gives me trouble colouring did I get really happy when I came to thing of my little stash of coloured poppies. I have them in a few different shades but I was in the mood for blue shades this time. 

I dug out my flowers from my stash and my die cutting up a whole panel with a nice grid of geometric shapes. I had planned to use it for left over small pieces of papers from other projects so I don't have to waste so much lovely papers. However, this time did I use card stock as a back drop for my flowers. I am pretty pleased with the result and got to use a butterfly that I had coloured as well. The flowers is a little too big for my liking, but it's totally ok. Oh, the flowers are by the way from Alternew. 

Anyway, I hope that you have had a good Easter and that you now feel up to playing along with us over at PFM.

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

Love  hugs

Christmas Cheers 15-23

Morning and hello!
Hi! I am back with a new creation. This time is it a Christmas card that will bring you (hopefully) some inspiration to create a card or two of your own. I have once again used a hÄnglar and Wing image from my stash. This image is from the set called Ful jultröja/ ugly Sweater.


I have used some old designer papers from different brands. They are all leftovers and means that I have managed to finish a few paper pads this year. It feels so good to be able to do that. Finish something is just what you need to get some space for new stash. :) I am drowning in paper pads, and I should probably not buy more in a few years or so. Will not happen, but the thought is really good and I should follow my own advice.

I have used a ribbon and some Nuvo drops to decorate my card. It's simple with many layers. I have also used a punch for one of my panels. 

Hope I have given you some inspiration. Wish you a wonderful day and take good care!

Love n hugs
Marie

Summer in full bloom over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
It's time for a new challenge over at PFM and this week's theme is set to "Summer in full bloom". Nice and fun, isn´t it?


This week are we sponsored by Alex Syberia and they are offering one lucky winner a £10 voucher to spend in their store. We will have one happy winner this week. 

I have used the image called hello Summer. It's a fabby image that I will use again and again. A.S. have some fantastic flower images that I really adore. Fabby!


I did manage to do some coloring with my promarkers this time and even if it's little and I didn't have so many details to color in for this image. I have used designer papers that I don't know what brand they are. The pack have no front page at all, and never have had. They are bright and colorful and make me happy!

I have used some gemstone from my stash in two sizes and some flower ribbon from my stash, they were a good match to my image.

I hope that you will be able to play along with us over at Passion for Markers. I and the rest of the team looks forward to visiting your blogs and leave you some love.

Take care and do take some time to do something that you enjoy!

Love n hugs
Marie

Just for fun 42

Morning and hello!
Time for a new card from me. This is looking quite a lot like another one or two that is or will be shown here. I have just used up different left overs from different paper pads. I am no fan of the die cutting process, but I love to colour these little cuties and it is easier to die cut them than making scenery with the masking technique.

The left overs used on this card is actually from a Lawn Fawn pad, winter plaid or something like that. It' has a lovely mix of blue and grey colours. The sentiment is from hÄnglar and Wings. I took plenty of inspiration for this card from a designer from Lawn Fawn. I loved the idea with different scens in the window panel. 

Anyway, take some time to relax and have fun!

Love n hugs
Marie
