Passion for Markers - Go Wild!...

 Good morning, crafty friends! I am playing hostess over at Passion for Markers this week, with our brand new challenge starting today and for the theme, I have chosen 'Go Wild!'... you can interpret this however you like, whether it be wild animals, animals that live in the wild, wild flowers or just wild patterns and colour! So, from hedgehogs to hippos or bluebells to bananas, if it lives or grows in the wild (either in the UK or anywhere else in the world) then I would like to see it on your creations!...

We're being sponsored by Polkadoodles who are offering one lucky winner a choice of 3 digital images from their online store...

We were lucky enough to pick an image to play with and I chose the super sweet 'Earlie Hedgehog Balloon'...

Although not the wildest of animals, hedgehogs are a native animal that lives in the wild here in the UK...plus they're pretty cute, especially when they have stripey socks and a balloon!?!...

I coloured this sweet FuzzyPuff with my alcohol markers and here's the colour list I used :

Body - Primrose, Vanilla, (SN) Mocha, (SN) Umber, (SN) Coffee Bean, 

Muzzle and inner ears - Putty, Tan, Baby Pink, Cocktail Pink

Stripes and Bow - Cool Aqua, Duck Egg, Surf Blue,

Balloon - Ruby, Amaranth Red, Burgundy

I raided my scrap drawers for some papers (but it still doesn't seem to make a dent in them?!) and mat the image onto a die cut scalloped rectangle. I cut some balloons from glitter and pearlised card, adding strings and a gold die cut sentiment. I stamped the second part of the sentiment and attached over the 'y' of happy, then finished with some gems, pearls and a touch of glitter...

I hope you can find the time to 'go wild' and join in with my fun challenge this week and look forward to seeing all of your wonderful creations...
