Good morning a day late with my post for Passion For promarkers I got my days mixed up so massive apology to my team mates.

Well this weeks challenge is sponsored by Dr Dig House of Stamps.

I do love these images so different from the cute images great for those male cards too.

Our theme for this weeks challenge has been picked by Nic

Birthdays

Well I have lots of Spring birthdays and loads of male ones too. But us girlies dont always like lots of flowers and girlie images from time to time.

So here is a card which i am sure would be ok for either sex

I have used Pierre the postie from our sponsor

Coloured with promarkers a must for our challenge

Some printed card from stash 

Kraft card run through with a cuttlebug embossing folder then had some distressed ink rubbed over to highlight the wording

Crafty sentiment fence die

some twine and a Happy Birthday.

I went with the Kraft card as it reminded me of the Brown paper on parcels.

Well head on over and checkout the lovely cards the girls have made and what a fab selection of styles.

Thanks for popping by off to the garage with my card as now my  exhaust has gone bang and think it is the back box as i had the front done 12 months ago.
