Passion for ProMarkers - week 43 challenge



This is my card I'm entering into this weeks Passion for ProMarkers challenge. The challenge this week was to follow a sketch published on http://promarkerchallenge.blogspot.com/

The stamp I chose to use was Spring is Back by Sarah Kay. She was stamped with Memento ink pads and coloured in with ProMarkers. I added highlights with gold and clear Sakura pens. I enjoyed using Sarah Kay's Rose Garden stamp so much I decided I 'needed' another stamp from the range.



The mains colours I used for the stamped image were pinks and greens, so I kept to these colours for the background papers too. The yellow checked paper is by DCWV. The pink spot and flower paper are by Laura Ashley and green by Bloom and Grow. I mounted all these on green background panels.

I used a Martha Stewart flower punch for the cream flower. I attached this with a pink flower brad. I finished the card by adding green brads, a pink ribbon and a greeting.

Passion for ProMarkers - week 42 challenge



This my card I'm entering in this weeks Passion for ProMarkers challenge.
http://promarkerchallenge.blogspot.com/

The colours for this weeks challenge was Bright Green and Mango. The stamp is Rose's Garden by Sarah Kay. It was stamped with a Memento ink pad and coloured in with ProMarkers. I added gold stickles to the centre of the flowers. I mounted the girl onto bright orange card.



I used a range of orange and green shades for the card to compliment the pen colour choice. I layered up a a selection of orange pattern papers. These were from DCWV, Forever Friends, Bloom & Grow and Whitewash Core'dinations. The white lace edge was punched with the large Martha Stewart flower punch. I chose a bright green ribbon go compliment the Bright Green ProMarker. I added two paper flowers. I also added Card Candy by Craftwork Cards to the centre of the flower centres and on the Whitewash card. The circle greeting is also by Craftwork Cards.

Stamping on a Sunday



This is a card I've just finished making. I'm entering it into the Sunday Stamping Challenge on www.docrafts.co.uk

The theme of this weeks challenge is punches. As you can see I've used Martha Stewart's flower edge punches in just a few places. The edge of the purple background panel for the stamped image was created with Martha's flower edge and corner punch. I've also used with corner punch in the corners of the top left hand corners of the purple stripped background paper. The right hand side edge is also punches but this time with the larger flower punch from the same set.



The stamp is Rose's Garden by Sarah Kay. This is the first time I've used this stamp and I'm very pleased with it. The design stamped very well and there is so much fine detail. It was a joy to colour in. It was stamped with Memento ink pad and coloured in with ProMarkers. I added some gold sparkle to the flowers centres with a Sakura Pen.

The patterned background paper is from Daisy & Dandelion Picnic Patch range of papers. The card was finished off with cream ribbon and a bow and a greeting by Craftwork Cards.
