Wow, we told you there were amazing prizes didn’t we?  Definitely lots of reasons to join in the fun this week!! To give you lots of inspiration we have both Team 1 and Team 2 to share their creations over on the Passion for Promarkers challenge blog and here's a look at my DT card...

I decided to use the free digital images that I featured in this month's Simply Cards and Papercraft magazine, issue 191 (you can download the images HERE) I coloured the pretty Spring Bouquet up with my Pro/Flexmarkers and here's the colour list I used :

Leaves - Apple, Forest Green, Holly

Lavender - Orchid, Amethyst, Red Violet

Daisies - Blender, Pale Pink, Buttercup, Pastel Yellow, Sunflower

Small flowers - Sorbet, Fuchsia Pink

Background - Pastel Blue, Blender

I also used the free papers that come with the downloads, plus a bit of dotty pink from my stash for the corners. I inked the edges with Tuxedo Black Memento and drew a doodled border around the image...a touch of glitter, pearls and diamantes finished things off, plus the pink grosgrain for a bit of texture.

I have a busy day today, trying to catch up with housework and doing a bit of tidying, though I should've been photographing the samples for my upcoming project (but I forgot to get hubby to leave me his phone with the bells and whistles!) It just means days get switched around and I'll try doing that tomorrow...feeling like there's not enough days in this week, I'll just have to be a bit more organised with my time?!! Now there's a laugh! I'm a bit of a goldfish when the sun is shining and get distracted by the call to be outdoors!...
I do hope you can play along with our special anniversary challenge this week and look forward to seeing all your lovely creations!
