Passion for Promarkers - Christmas is Coming...

Good morning, Blogger buddies! Gosh, these Tuesdays are rolling around quickly now...and we're already into October - how did that happen?! The days are getting shorter and there's a definite Autumn chill in the air...and I don't suppose it will be long before we're thinking about that thing that happens in December...scrap that, it's time to think of it now!! Mainly because we have a new challenge starting over at Passion for Promarkers today and the lovely Julie has chosen us the theme of 'Christmas is Coming'....
We're being sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a $12.00 voucher to spend in their online store...

For my DT card, I decided to use a brand new image of mine which is literally hot of the press, as it was only completed yesterday morning!...
I have to say, I am so pleased with how this little penguin turned out, he's really easy to colour and will soon be available to buy in my Etsy store (www.ellasdesign.co.uk) as a digital stamp - I'm just working on finalising a couple of variations...
Here's a close up of the little guy...(I hate having to watermark images, but sadly it is a necessary evil! At a time when so many more designers are having their artwork copied or shared online, it is a hard job to try and protect your image and yet share your inspiration with fellow crafters, plus I try to make my images and card kits accessible to everyone by keeping them at a low cost to buy...so I'd just like to take this opportunity to say a huge THANK YOU to any of you that have bought a design from me in the past - it is your continued support that keeps me contributing to the craft world, albeit in a small way!) Okay, rant over, normal service will now be resumed?!…

Right, off to try and get these files ready for upload...I hope you can find the time to join in with our challenge this week and always look forward to seeing what you create...just don't forget, to be in with a chance of winning, you MUST include your Letraset/Winsor & Newton mediums in your design - you can mix them with other mediums, just let us know where you've used them to be eligible to win the prize...
Hugs,
I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges :
#108 Dies or Punches (it's rare for me not to use dies on a card these days!)
#77 Anything Goes until 13th
Just for Fun until 11th
#90 Anything Goes until 5th
Just for Fun until 14th
Anything Goes closes tomorrow
October Anything Goes

    Oh this is super adorable, love it!!! fabulous design too, on another note thanks so much for your lovely visit to my blog and your comments, I really appreciate it. in answer to your question about using heat on Foamiran if it's silk foam you don't use heat at all, just your fingers will shape the flower ok, 0.6 Foamiran doesn't need a heat source either though it does tend to lose it's shape a little if an iron isn't used, so to be honest i still tend to use one, 0.8 Foamiran really needs heat as it's quite thick but most people don't tend to use that anymore, hope this helps, if you need anything else just ask, thanks again for your visit to my blog, hugs Liz xx
