Promarkers, Papertake & Digital Tuesday challenges






Morning all!! Hope those Mum's out there had a good Mother's Day yesterday!! I had a lovely day. My husband and the girls took me out for a BBQ to some local woods & beach. The girls had a great time making a sand castle and got me digging a huge moat for them. Unfortunately it rained while my husband was cooking the food, so we ended up eating in the car, but they all seemed to enjoy themselves!!

Anyway, on to this morning's card. This is for my brother, the first of a run of male birthdays coming up in my family.

This card is for the following challenges:

Papertake Weekly - I followed the sketch.

Passion for Promarkers - the image is coloured with my promarkers, predominantly the challenge colours of Mango and Bright Green.

Digital Tuesday Challenge - my image is a digital image "Moodles Hugo Pressie" from Polycraft. I've also included piercing around my main image as one of the challenge conditions.

Thanks for looking!!

Mojo Monday 129 & Creative Inspirations 51



Hi everyone - I hope you're having a good weekend!!



I've just made this card for one of my neighbours who's just had a baby. Well, when I saw her with the baby it turns out she was born two weeks ago!! Oops!! I know I'm always rushing in and out of the house with the girls in my own little manic world, but I felt pretty bad at not realising she'd had the baby!!!

Anyway, I've made this card following the sketch on Mojo Monday.

The baby image is a digital stamp from Squiggle Stamps. I've bought quite a few digital images from various places recently and I'm loving them - my printer does a better job than I do when stamping!!

I'm also entering the Creative Inspirations challenge which was to use a charm on the card. I used this cute little teddy bear - hope this counts!!

Image coloured with promarkers. Backing paper Forever Friends. I tried doing a scalloped border round one of the papers with my Martha Stewart border punch. Not hugely successful when it comes to the corners - think I'll stick to strips from now on, unless I get a corner punch!!


Well, that's it for now. Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!!

3 challenge card


This is another 3 -in 1 challenge card.

1. I've followed the sketch on Moving Along With The Times, and also the theme which was "One for the girls".
2. I've also followed the theme on the Passion for Promarkers challenge which was "Back to Nature". I thought the lovely Sunny Flower Girl, which I got as a digital image from Squiggles Stamps, was just perfect for this theme. Coloured with Promarkers, of course!!
3. I am also entering the Papertake Weekly Challenge, which was to use at least one of Buttons, Bows, Brads and Bling! I've used Bows and Buttons on my card.
The papers and all the embellishments are from the Papermania Capsule Collection. I got the last DoCrafts Goody Bag which had the entire collection in it!!!!

3 challenge card



Just a quick one as I'm keen to go and have my tea!!
This card is for three challenges:
1. Crafty Catz - use ribbon and a fancy edge (great chance to use my lovely new Martha Stewart punch again!!). The fluffy ribbon is from the Papermania Couture Ribbon collection.
2. Just Cute Bears - mint and brown colour combo. The Coco bear image I downloaded from Digistamp Boutique. The green flower was white and I coloured it with my Mint Green promarker.
3. Sketch Saturday - I followed the sketch - found it a really tricky one so I might have adjusted it a little!!!
Thanks for looking!!

Papertake Weekly Challenge



Hello everyone, I hope you had a good weekend. We woke up to snow again here - getting very bored of snow now!!

This card is for the Papertake Weekly sketch challenge.

The image is the lovely Daisy with flowers from Squiggles Stamps. I coloured with promarkers while visiting Jenny (see her blog, Stamps, Pencils and Paper!) before Christmas. I found her the other day and she matched my Papermania Capsule Collection papers perfectly!!

Thanks for looking!!
