Passion for Markers - Frame it!...

 Good morning, crafty friends! Another Tuesday comes around with a brand new challenge starting over at Passion for Markers...this week it's the lovely Lorraine in the hostess chair with a fun theme of 'Frame it!' - so we would like to see a frame somewhere on your projects...

We're being sponsored by Dr Digi's House of Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a choice of 2 digital images from their online store...

We were lucky enough to be able to pick out an image to play with and I decided to go for a masculine theme (for hubby's birthday next month, but Ssssshhhhh! Don't tell him!) and chose 'Ford Popular' as our business refurbishes parts for classic cars...

I really liked the layout of this card and similar ones that I found on Pinterest (I must admit, I love all of Ewa's creations and am now going to be stalking her blog!) and thought it would be a perfect layout for this week's theme...

I coloured the Ford Pop with my Pro/Flexmarkers and yes, I do have a colour list for you...am I getting good at this?!...

Blender, Champagne, Sandstone, Cappuccino

Cool Aqua, Duck Egg, Storm Blue

Cool Grey 2, 4, 5, Storm Cloud and Umber

I used a couple of square stitched dies to create the frames  and cut 9 of them out of dark brown cardstock. I mat them onto an old scrapbook script paper that is getting down to the last pieces in my scrap drawer and then onto a distressed aqua paper. I coloured and cut out 2 of the Ford Pops, then cut one in half, mounting them with foam pads fr a touch of dimension...

I embellished with some arrow dies, stars, my favourite Yana sentiment dies and a circle label to look like a road sign. I really like the way this one turned out and shall definitely be taking more inspiration from Ewa's blog...

I hope you can find the time to play along with our fun challenge this week and look forward to seeing all of your wonderful makes...

Crafty hugs,
