#414 - Passion For promarkers - Colours of The rainbow

Hi how are you all today. Well I do hope!

So today being Tuesday can only mean time for a new challenge at Passion For Promarkers

This weeks challenge has been picked by Shelley

COLOURS OF THE RAINBOW

wow we are expecting some colourful creations.

We are sponsored by Digi Stamp Boutique

who is giving one lucky winner £10 to spend in their store.

So we got to pick some images to play with and i picked Percy Snow Set and here is one of the images.

Coloured him with my Promarkers

(a must for our challenges)

added Fluffy stuff for his hat and snow.

Glitter card and ribbon. 

Charm was coloured with my promarkers too

Backing is various Snowflake stamps stamped in the colours of the rainbow.

Used a stitched boarder die for the image shape.

Now before you head off and get those lovely colours out checkout what the girls have done for your inspiration and then when you have completed your card link up in Mr Linky and we will be along to check it out.

Have a great day wonder what sort of card you will make.

Black & White Christmas card

Hi i am back with a Christmas card made with the candy cane die from Tonic Studios.

I previously did this in traditional colours and decided to try and make one that looked totally different. So went for Black and White.

If you would like to compare them the link to the other is HERE  

and a flat view showing the layers and fluffy stuff

This time I kept the die in the card instead of cutting out theedge. Added glitter from tonic round the edge and layered onto black card.

Added a sentiment stamp in the middle and some diecuts bells with white paint and fluffy stuff. Finished with Black ribbon and Ivy diecut corners. A Black nuvo drop in the corner.

Well that is another card for my box it is starting to slowly fill but needs many more.

Please drop me a comment and let me know you have stopped by and maybe say which you like best.

Thanks for popping by.
