Passion for Markers - Make it Bloom...

Hello there, crafty friends! Another Tuesday arrives with a brand new challenge over at Passion for Markers! The lovely Marie is in the hostess chair this week setting us an easy theme of 'Make it Bloom'...whether it's floral papers, images or embellishments, we'd like to see some flowers on your creations...

We're being sponsored by LeAnn's World 101, who are offering one lucky winner a choice of 2 images from their online store...


We were lucky enough to get an image to play with and I picked out the pretty Bouquet digistamp...

I'm trying to put together some cards to sell in our village shop, which has recently been taken over by new management and want to try to include local makers in the store, so thought this image would make a pretty Anniversary card...I created 4 of these cards, in two colour ways and in both Welsh and English...


I cut a heart aperture in the front panel and edged it with a lace heart frame, before attaching to a pale blue mat using foam tape. I inked the die cut heart with Cracked Pistachio to give an aura where the bouquet would sit, stamped the word Happy and then glued the heart back in the aperture. I coloured the image with my Pro/Flexmarkers and attached using foam pads, then stamped the word anniversary and cut out leaving a white border. This was attached with foam pads and then I added a small dusky pink heart and a strip of patterned paper along the bottom section...

 I hope you can join in with our easy challenge this week and look forward to seeing all of your floral creations! 

Crafty hugs,


 I'd like to enter my card into the Allsorts Challenge Week 633/634 which is Feminine/For a Lady

These are SO beautiful! I had to pin them to my Pinterest file--not that I could duplicate your amazing coloring skills, but maybe I can come up with something a bit similar.

It's a lovely design and I do hope they sell well for you, such a nice idea for a village shop to want to stay local, many thanks for joining in with my Feminine theme at Allsorts challenge.
