Passion for Promarkers - Use Black and/or Purple...

 Good morning, Blogger buddies! It's that time of the week again, when we start a brnad new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers!...

The lovely Sue is in the hostess chair and she has given us a topical theme (but not Halloween!) of 'Use Black and/or Purple'...so your creation can be for any occasion, as long as you use either or both of these colours!


 We're being sponsored by Crafty Sentiments who are offering one lucky winner a choice of 3 digis from their online store...just remember that to be in with a chance of winning the prize, you must use your Letraset/Winsor & Newton mediums and follow the challenge theme...

We were lucky enough to get an image to play with and I picked out the ever so fun 'Henry, why not'...


He really is a great image for boys' cards and I teamed him up with a mix of papers from my stash, including the skull paper from the November set of A Year in Cards and the purple polka dot from Another Play on Words, House set. I coloured Henry with my Pro/Flexmarkers and added the skateboard image and sentiment from the November set of A Year in Cards...

I hope you can play along with our fun challenge this week - and don't forget, your entry can be for any celebration...

Crafty hugs,

Passion for Promarkers - Make it Festive...

Good morn-afternoon, my lovelies! It's Tuesday, so you know what that means, don't you?  Yep, that's right! It's the start of a brand new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers...

This week it's the lovely Marie in the hostess chair and (unlike my challenge) she would like to see all of your festive makes for that event that happens in December! So get out your markers and Make it Festive! We're being sponsored by JMC Designs who are offering one lucky winner a digital collection of their choice from the online store...


 Just remember that to be in with a chance of winning the prize, you MUST use your Letraset/Winsor & Newton mediums (although they can be mixed with other mediums) and follow the challenge theme...

I decided to use the ever so fun image 'Edna' and had her trying to tackle her tinsel, with limited success! It was a good challenge to use a non Christmas image for a festive make and I think it's made a really fun card with a difference!

I coloured Edna with my Pro/Flexmarkers and coloured some fluffy wool before adding crystal glitter, for my tinsel. The papers were all from my scrap drawers - I always try to go to my scraps first, but it seems that I make more than I can use! I created the sentiment in Photoshop and added some die cut snowflakes with crystal gem centres...

I hope you can find the time to play along with our festive challenge this week and look forward to seeing all of your wonderful creations!

Crafty hugs,
