Passion for Promarkers Challenge

Time for another PFP challenge and this week we are being sponsered by Stampeezee who are offering Hawai Tilda & Palm as the prize. If you have not been on the Stampeezee site before check it out here, they stock the full range of Promarkers, Magnolia Stamps, Greeting Farm stamps & Martha Stewart punches among many other fab crafty goodies.

So onto this weeks card, Debbie has chosen the colors Cocoa & Cornflower and designed a sketch for us to follow.

I chose to use one of my Gorjuss girls that has never seen ink, teamed her up with Sandylion Floral crochet blue & Cosmo Cricket Chemistry: Forget me not DP Matted on to SU Chocoalte chip & Ballet blue cardstock. The sentiment is by Penny Black and the scallop punches are by Stampin Up.

I used the following Promarkers to colour her in:

Clothes: Cornflower, China Blue, Blue Pearl
Face: Blush, Dusky Pink & Blossom
Hair Cocoa, cinnamon & Sandstone
Outline: Pastel Blue

I added faux stiching to all the elements and punched out some butterfly's with my 99p Tesco & Hobbycraft punches and covered them in stickles, the bling dots are from my stash, I coloured them with the cocoa promarker!!

Passion for Promarkers Challenge

Time for another challenge at Passion for Promarkers and this week we want to see you use Lemon & Meadow green on your cards.

This week we are lucky to be sponsered by Angel Crafts who are offering a prize of £10 to the winner drawn at random, click here to see what you could be spending it on.

Ok so to my card.........when I saw this colour combo my Magnolia Tilda with Sunflower popped into my head but I had awful trouble finding matching paper........having a real mojo dilema this week............some cards just instantly work for me but i am a little dissapointed with this one.

I eventually found a DCWV Glitter stack pad in my stash......unopened and found thisflowery DP in the challenge colours. I teamed it with SU Cardstock & Ribbon & decorated it with sunflowers from my stash. The sentiment is from the Greeting Farm Hope & Grace stamp set I picked up from Stampeezee on Saturday....just love the sentiments in this pack. I stamped it in SU chocolate brown Ink & punched & layered it with the new SU oval punches.

I used the following Promarkers to colour her:

Hair: Sandstone, Cocoa & Cinnamon
Clothes: Lemon, canary & pastel yellow
Face: Ivory, Blush & Dusky Pink

Stamp with us challenge #2 & CCT challenge #56

Phew, just in time .com with this one for the Stamp with Us challenge 2, this week was a birthday them so anything goes as long as it is birthday related and uses at least one SU product. The card was inspired by the one I made at Helen's (previous post). I am really taken by the playful petals set of stamps......funny as it was my least favourite when the mini catty came out and now it is probably one of my favourite sets. The card also qualifies for the challenge over at Cute Card Thursday as the theme this week is Flowers.

Stamps: SU Playful Petals (mini catalogue)
Sentiment: SU Sincere Salutations
Cardstock: SU whisper white, Yoyo yellow, Almost Amethyst & Pretty in Pink
DP: SU Tea Party series (mini catalogue)
