Passion For markers - Summer in Full Bloom

 Good evening here with my DT card for 

PASSION FOR MARKERS

this weeks new challenge is

SUMMER IN FULL BLOOM

we are kindly sponsored by

Alex Syberia Designs 

For my card I am using the digital image

‘hello summer

I printed this off to a A" size and added a gold frame. 

Image coloured with my markers

some brown glitter added to the centre of the flower

Mounted onto some gold glitter card.

The sentiment is a die from Time For Tea and a yellow pearl to finish

The colours taken from a Sunflower

A neighbour gave my Grandson 2 Sunflowers for his 2nd Birthday so we have 2 fabulous Sunflowers that are about 4 foot tall in my front. He had kept them well watered when we had the hot weather and even went and watered the neighbours when he was on holiday.

i have to say that we have the largest heads out of all of them. Although they seems to be fading fast but there are several large buds coming off the sides. Unsure what to do now. So anyone that knows please lease a comment and we can sort so they produce lovely flowers

Well we cant wait for you to come and join in our challenge we would love to see what Summer flowers your colouring. Are they part of your image or are the the main image

Lots of inspiration on the blog so pop along and check them out
