Passion for Markers use your fave tool/ product

 Hello i am on catch up this weeks challenge at Passion For Markers has been set by Julie.

She would like to see what your Favourite Tool / Product/ Embellishment.

We are sponsored by

 Dr Digi’s House of Stamps

For my card I have used the image Baking Brian

My fave tool has to be my Bigshot as I use it each time either for dies or embossing folders plus  of course my Pens  for my images.

Here is a card I made for my Brother who's birthday is just round the corner.

I thought the DP looked like the ribbles in icing or cream

Used a embossing floder and dies from stash.

Few gems for a touch of sparkle.

Well if you havent joined us yet still time to play along.

Hope to see you over on the blog and checkout what the girls have made.

Thanks for stopping by

July New releaseAll Dressed Up

 Hello hope you have had a good day.

Last week my son had the week off so we had some days out with my Grandson. He loved all the attension and we had a river trip visits to seaside train ride and lots of other treats.

Weather wasnt too hot later in the week so was nice.

Well back to my post i have this months nrw release and my image is using Summer Icecream

I coloured the image with promarkers

Added the odd sequin for sparkle

Dp is from stash

A scallop die for the top boarders to tie in with the cart. 

I kept fairly simple with the image being so large just matting the layers. 

Do you have a fave icecream. I dont tend to eat much these days but must say i do love a good cone my fave would be a rum and raisin but it has to be a good one. There is a company down cornwall near st peters mount that i could dit all evening wstching the sun going down with a icecream in hand. 

Well that is lots more inspiration on the blog using this image and the other 2 new ones. So pop along and check them out. Dont forget our blog challengr and if you do social media we have a challenge on our facebook page. 

Thanks for dropping by have a lovely day.
