Traditional Christmas colours over at PFM

 Morning and hello from a snowy Sweden!

-8 degrees and it's snowing again when I write this. We have about 2,5 dm of snow and soon will it all be gone again. And today should the carpenters started to change our roof. What great planning! The worst thing is that we had 17 degrees last weekend. Totally nuts!

Ok, we have a new challenge up for you over at Passion for Markers. This week's theme is "Traditional Christmas colours". Perfect timing, right? Around a month before Christmas today and time flies by fast. I think I will have a few more cards to make and send. 

Our sponsor this week is Colour of Love which is offering one lucky winner three digis of winners choice. Thank you for that!

I have not used a sponsor image this time, had to use something that I already had coloured as I am in a fight with my fingers/hands. They are not working properly at this time. Wonder how long that will last.? Anyway, I have used an image from LOTV that I find super sweet. I have coloured with my promarkers this time. I like the red colours best from that brand. 

I have paired this jolly fellow up with some designer papers from We R M called silver and gold if I remember right. I really need to start writing down what I use in my projects. A golden, red and green ribbon from my stash match up perfect with my papers. Some glitter glue from Nuvo is used as well as a few golden sticker stars and a few pearls in a deep red colour for the tree. The final touch comes from some golden gemstones. A white gel pen is also used for some extra details. 

Well, I think this is all from me for now. I hope you take some time to come and play with us. It's a really easy theme and fun to play along with a few challenges, Take care and do something you enjoy!

Love n hugs

Make it digital over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

Long time no seen! I am still struggling with my health and that makes it a bit hard to colour, if I took that part away it would be pretty ok. :) But that would make it impossible to create for PFM. 

Our sponsor this week is Leann's world 101 and they are offering one lucky winner two images of winners choice. 

This week's challenge is set to "Make it digital" and that was something that was easy for me when I was on the TPS team, but now am I almost always using images from hÄnglar and Wings which is a stamp company with almost only stamps. So I had to look around to find this card that I could use for this challenge. I believe it is a Tiddly Ink image but not totally sure. 

I have coloured this image with my promarkers and paired the lovely couple up with some designer papers from Pink Fresh Studio's Oh, what fun! I have been using up some of my huge stash of enamel dots and shapes. I have also used some die cut snowflakes, but I don't remember what brand these are from. I have also used some nuvo drops for the eye and buttons on the sweet snowman.

Take care everyone and do something that makes you happy!

Christmas Cheer 10-22

Morning and hello!

It is already time for a month to come to an end. This time is it october that will close it's door. I have made a Christmas card that I have used some old stash together with a fairly new image from LOTV. It is always nice to use up old stash and this time it's some of the paper pad Nordic Christmas or something like that from Dovecraft I believe. 

I don't remember the name of the image either which is typical of me. All the strange dots in the photo is from my glitter pen that has a really glittery effect when I use the flash to take a picture. I have also used some ribbon on my card and then put a strip of paper that is left over from the same paper pad. Makes it look like it is a very fancy ribbon don't you think? To finish of the card have I used some Nuvo Drops with some pearl finish and it looks stunning on the card.

Thanks for watching!

Love n hugs

Embellish it! over at Passion for markers

 Morning and hello! 

It's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers and this week am I the host of the challenge. I have chosen the theme of "Embellish it!" It would be nice to see you decorate your creations from time to time. And as you understand this week do we focus on that. It don't have to be much but a little here and there.

Our sponsor this week is Star Jam Lines which is offering one lucky winner a prize of  2 digi images of their choice (the Etsy store is currently closed but Olya will liaise with the winner to sort out choosing their images).  

I have used a sponsor image called Gnome Christmas Decoration. I have not used the main image as my hands refuse to work with me at this point. Therefore I used the coordination image that just has a few Christmas decorations on it. Easier for me to colour. 

I have used a few different embellishments for this card: some die cuts (a perfect embellishment), some gemstones, pearls, a bow and glitter card to that as well. Lots going on maybe a little too much but some days are more others less. :)

I have coloured with copic markers this time, to lazy to go downstairs to get my promarkers. :) I have also used an old paper pack from Dove craft that I have had in my stash forever, Back to Basic Christmas I believe.

Anyway, I hope that you play along with us over at PFM this week and I look forward to visit your blogs.

Love n hugs

Anything goes over Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

I am back after a little break due to pain. Still not fit but I can at least write my post this week. Our challenge this week over at PFM is "Anything goes". 

Our sponsor this week is UNIKO stams  which is offering one lucky winner a stamp set of their choice.

For my card have I used an old Whimsy stamp coloured with promarkers and the papers are from Crafters Companion just as the white embossed panel and DCWV if I'm not totally off. One pad is new and the other is superold.  I have used a bunch of layers but I printed my image a bit too large so it cover a lot of my card. I have exchanged the printed snowballs with "real" ones. They are covered in glitter in silver and gold, some with white glitter. Some stickers in silver makes the snow fall over the little friends.

Well, this is all from me for today. Sweet and short as I keep having trouble with my joints.

Love n hugs,

Marie
